The best restaurants in Westport

27/09/2025: We had a wonderful family meal in Coveys. Special mention to Hussane, who was exceptional and looked after us well. Would highly recommend.

03/09/2025: Atmosphere and service of restaurant was very nice. The server was courteous and friendly. Reason for my 3 star rating is my ribeye steak was inedible, very tough, fatty, chewy. A far cry from the “marbling that melts into the meat resulting in a juicy steak” as advertised. I was expecting a fine cut of steak. Tried real hard to eat it, but after half the steak was so tough and chewy and having to take the meat out of my mouth, I gave up. The side dishes were all quite good and I enjoyed them very much. The peppercorn sauce was also very good…I dipped my chips in it since the steak wasn’t working out. My wife ordered the fillet and it was very good. She gave me a few bites and I wish I had ordered the fillet, not the ribeye. Perhaps it was just a bad cut that night, I don’t know as this was our first visit to Westport and Coveys. They did offer to cook me a new piece of meat, but at this point my wife was nearly done, so I declined.

10/12/2025: We went into Loftys for one on the way back to the hotel and ended up staying for 4. The Guinness is really good lofty the main man was serving, and what an absolute Gent he was we had a chat and a laugh. It wasn't that busy as it was a tuesday evening but I really enjoyed the few hrs spent there.

26/08/2025: Great pint of Guinness, Annie was very friendly and helpful, gave us advice on our onward journey.

01/12/2025: Great pub. Guiness 0.0 and great trad players.

13/08/2025: Didn’t eat here, but wouldn’t go back for drinks. Bartenders were not friendly at all and refused to make mixed drinks for Americans, but then made them for their friends who ordered right after. One acted as if he didn’t know what Tito’s vodka was. They had great live music and a lively crowd, but a very unwelcoming bunch. Americans should skip this spot and spend their money elsewhere. One of the few pubs the group had anything negative to say about.

21/12/2025: Great pint of Guinness, food great & 🐕friendly too!

06/11/2025: We had a very relaxed meal in Maddens. The food was very tasty and the staff very pleasant and professional. Will be back

22/08/2025: After a long day biking we wanted somewhere nice to rest up and eat. Walked by and on a whim went in, early for Ireland but best decision ever. Four great meals came out, well presented and delicious. Recommend the lamb rack, everything about it was just right. The staff were lovely as well, very good communication from them, keep it up.

18/04/2026: Its outdoor seating or carryout only Staff so friendly We are vegan and ordered the Veggie It was filled with veggies and a really delicious wood fired oven pizza Its a very popular pizzaria

09/12/2025: I love coming here for a Chai Latte during my coffee breaks. I also recommend it for breakfast.

26/07/2025: Good sandwiches with good prices. Perfect staff.

31/01/2026: Worst service, overcharged for food, dull atmosphere. We had one of the worst experience ever. Not recommended.

25/01/2026: Amazing food, quick service. Would highly recommend this place :)

29/11/2025: A lovely atmosphere in this small restaurant in the city center, efficient and friendly service, the daily special served with fresh baguette – a real treat! Delicious dessert and cappuccino served with a sweet treat...

20/10/2025: We are locals. I wanted to bring our visitors from Madrid here for lunch on a rainy Saturday. They are foodies and I had explained that Savoir Fare is probably the best lunch spot in town and was recently recommended in The Irish Times. We arrived just before 12 noon and I was pleased to see empty tables because they don’t take reservations. I was told very bluntly “I cannot serve you”, because we were a group of 6. I asked if we could divide into 2 tables of 3 which were set for lunch and unoccupied. I was told “I will not split the group. I cannot serve you”. The way he said it was rude. The other diners were all watching. So we left. I stood outside on the pavement in the drizzle, super embarrassed in front of our visitors. Bruised, we walked up to The Clockhouse Cafe and after a short wait, we were seated. Not the same offering at all, but we were welcomed, and served with a smile.

12/03/2026: Decided to get a spice bag after a long days work. I must say I was not disappointed I will highly recommend this place. Yeah the the service was quick and friendly staff and the food is a lovely generous portion fresh chips fresh chicken everything was was really really great a no complaints here.

28/02/2026: Very easy, ordered by calling and arrived food was piping hot and delicious, staff were wonderfully friendly absolutely no problems and food was great!
