Kellys Bar
Birr
20/08/2026: Service was ok.
Food quite poor. Nice enough chips. Had steak sandwich, steak was overcooked, very very thin, so I guess nearly impossible to cook it medium rare. Had to ask for pepper sauce as it didn't come with it.
Definitely the stingiest steak in a steak sandwich I have ever had.
Person serving us was apologetic about the steak being well done rather than medium rare. Due to the time constraints, I didn't send the sandwich back and eat and paid for it.
Mushroom vol-au-vent was tasty, but contained very little chicken. The pub must be in the serious cost cutting stage as prices are on par with everywhere else but very little protein for your money here.
Card machine didn't work (signs displayed so assume that machine doesn't work permanently). We had to pay for food and drinks separately even though everything was ordered and served together.
All in all, would not go back and regretted eating here.
Do not recommend for more than chips and a drink.
14/08/2026: Lovely staff bus service a bit chaotic on Sunday. Food very good. Pity a glass of Chardonnay was so bad - undrinkable actually!

Sanjay's Kitchen
Birr
05/10/2026: Very pleasant atmosphere with equally great quality food which was welcome after long weekend wedding . Definitely would recommend as unlikely to disappoint
05/09/2026: The mango duck main course comes with no rice or naan bread (we had to pay extra), the duck meat was a bit dry and not enough for the main coarse...The service was lovely but food was average and overpriced...

Townsend House
Birr
11/01/2026: Went for tapas on Christmas work night out. Gorgeous
07/01/2026: The place is okay. We paid €200 a night for 2 people, which is a lot, but understand, given there was a wedding and Country Arms Birr was fully booked, and it was NYE. Still, it was quite a shocking price—but then again, Ireland. It's expensive for what it is, but that's the nature of supply and demand, as they say.
We stayed in the front room, and the traffic noise was really bad. Worse than that, the heating in the room was off, and we couldn’t find anyone to help us, so there was no solution, and it was freezing. We woke up with the heat on in the morning.
It also has a breakfast with it, Irish fry up. It's okay.
