The best restaurants in Westport

14/09/2024: The only pub that was open at 12pm, in westport. A very friendly sports bar, typical mans bar. Fit for purpose

20/09/2023: The food was superb. If the staff were awful, we would still be excited to go back and try something else. Thankfully, they are polite and friendly. We will be talking about our evening here for some time to come.

13/09/2023: Stunning restaurant with great surroundings. The food was fabulous, Mussels and Piri Piri Prawns are to die for. The service was excellent and the prices are resonable for the quality and presentation of the food. Well done No8 thank you. Derek

04/09/2024: Went to a party in the upstairs venue. Great spot for a small group. Includes a bar as well.

18/08/2024: We were the first people in before the kitchen opened and the boys at the bar were so welcoming asking was it ok if we waited 15 more minutes and got us drinks. We then ordered and my god, what a beautiful meal we received! I got the steak and it was delicious, my mum in law got the Irish Stew, hubby got burger and it was fresh and tasty. Everything was perfect. Lovely pub atmosphere and empty plates at the end. Go there!

16/05/2024: Really good fish and chips. Friendly guys working there. Best in town, where a lot of locals go.

09/11/2024: Good atmosphere and good service

06/10/2024: Great spot for staying for a stag. Booked 15 beds for above the pub and it couldn’t have went better. Great value and very central.

21/10/2024: Excellent pub and a wonderful function room upstairs. Always a pleasure to put events on there.

15/10/2024: No food. Cash only. An authentic pub in the middle of town, where host and customers will be interested in hearing where you've been and where you're going.

15/08/2024: Garlic bread as a starter: cheese supplement: €1. I take without cheese. "But are you sure? Because it's really dry without cheese... - I'm not a fan of cheese. - What if he's really not strong? Because it's really dry without..." In short, I took without. But damn, it was dry because there was no seasoning in the accompanying salad! A vinaigrette? Or is just oil too much to ask for? I had a dish afterwards. I waited for someone to come and clear me up to find out about the desserts... No one came in 10 minutes! I left.

20/07/2024: Great food great staff clean toilets !

07/08/2024: This is a blended review, as I had both dinner and breakfast at Maddens. Dinner was very good. Prompt and friendly service at this meal, and the food was first rate. The soup was tasty and the lamb shank was well prepared. That meal deserves and would get a 5 star review. Breakfast, however, was a different affair entirely. Something labeled "orange juice" was some Tang-like fluid. Really? No other restaurant in Ireland has done that, where I have had great OJ at each location. Service was VERY slow, and I had to finally flag down a server to order. Scrambled eggs they served had a full yoke in it which I sperated out. If you eat there try the scones. They were tasty. Overall, a mixed bag at this place, but breakfast might be a bit challenging, especially if you are on a schedule.

01/07/2024: Paula amazing bartender. She does the best moijto in the world.❤️

27/10/2024: So good, ate so much toast. Was nom

06/09/2024: So happy I popped in. Warm welcome and warm breakfast. Just what I needed and will be back. Thanks!

18/10/2024: great spot for lunch food plenty of choice and we all lovef it

13/10/2024: Every time I go to westport I make a point of popping in for either something to eat or drink or both .

10/11/2024: Good spot for a coffee or treat. Lots of options including catering for coeliacs.

15/10/2024: Had been dreaming of their spicy chicken wrap. Absolutely delicious and very, very good value. Jam packed with warm, juicy chicken, salad and lots of sauce.

13/11/2024: Some of the best onion Bhaji I’ve ever had, also amazing Himalayan curry.

18/10/2024: Do not try to make a reservation at this place using the link on Google maps. I did this and when we arrived the restaurant said they do not have access to the Google online bookings. They were rather rude and did not make any attempt to accommodate us. I would suggest you look elsewhere.

22/10/2024: Excellent quality fresh Asian food

26/08/2024: DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE. On Saturday night my family ordered a takeaway from this restaurant and could not have had a more unpleasant and dangerous experience. We clearly notified the restaurant that one of our children has a severe peanut allergy, which was clearly written on our receipt. They proceeded to send all of the food with peanuts on, and in the food. In addition to this, they also sent a vegetation nasi goreng dish with satay chicken and prawn in the dish. The correct food eventually arrived over 2 hours later and after 5 phone calls, over the course of 4 days, we were offered €20 euros off of our next order or a refund of the incorrect dishes. The potentially deadly situation has been dealt with in a shocking manner and they clearly have no value for their customer’s safety, whatsoever. I would urge anyone to seriously consider avoiding this establishment, and it goes without saying, we will never be returning.

24/07/2024: 2.5/5. We were looking forward to eating here after reading great reviews but unfortunately it wasn't a good experience for us. The restaurant wasn't very busy but there was a table of six ladies near us who were so loud that we couldn't hear each other speak. Service was slow but Lachlan did look after us well. There was a table next to us that was left uncleared for the whole evening. We had a prawn starter to share which was good. My husband had steak and veg which he was happy with. I ordered Carticco - seafood pasta. The seafood was ok although I didn't eat a few mussels because they weren't fully open. But the pasta was too thick and heavy. I make far nicer pasta at home all the time. I left most of it. Disappointing for our last night in Westport. Lachlan took it off the bill which we appreciate. I was going to try a dessert but didn't after that.

07/06/2024: After hiking diamond hill at the Connemara np we had starters for dinner. Delicious. avocado and prawns, bruschetta, ravioli, and garlic bread Italian style. Mmmmmmm. Perfecto!
