01/10/2025: We stopped in for lunch here with lower expectations after striking out several times in Donegal Town. We arrived around 1:30pm to a full house except for one table for 2. Great atmosphere. Lovely welcome/greeting from busy but accommodating staff. 4 lunch specials were offered in addition to the menu in this smallish bistro! I ordered the carbonara pasta and asked for a side Caesar salad which was no problem even though not available on the menu as a side. Hubby ordered the special chicken curry. Both were delicious! I loved the pasta but was especially impressed with the flavours and fresh ingredients of the Caesar salad. All food is made fresh to order. My husband commented on how perfectly cooked (ie not overcooked) the vegetables in his curry were. Looking forward to breakfast there tomorrow 🤗

20/09/2025: Lovely coffee, gorgeous cake and the soup looked amazing.

28/10/2025: 5 outa 5 for all.....food just fantastic, front of house staff ...you could not ask for more.....5 star

21/09/2025: Great place for lunch with family or friends. Varied menus of home cooked food. Plenty of seating. Friendly staff and great service. Highly recommended 👌.

01/11/2025: Firstly, a huge thank you to Brendan. My return from last year for 3 wonderful nights and plan to return next year. Supremely clean and comfortable rooms. A cozy traditional pub lies below rooms. A few minute walk into Midelton town centre. A 3 minute walk to train station which will have you into Cork City Centre in 22 minutes. Thanks to a terrific staff and the friendly locals who frequent this gem of a pub.

19/09/2025: What a place, super clean bed & breakfast with a friendly well run bar downstairs. Brendan the owner is a super nice guy. We had some great chats. The breakfast was very generous, lots of local produce on the menu, rashers & sausages etc. The bar stocks Blacks Beer & the best selection of Stonewell Ciders I've seen in a bar that size. Also the obligatory locally produced Midleton Whiskey

19/01/2026: Women on the till was very rude!Food faty and oily!Staf prety nice! NEVER AGAIN COME BACK IN THIS PLACE!

08/01/2026: While I was waiting in line to order I saw an employee drop chips on the floor and refry them… after this I left as I was DISGUSTED at the clear lack of food safety.

06/12/2025: We have in the past found the service can be a touch hit and miss for food but on the other side never had to wait long for drinks atmosphere very good regular clientele speaks for itself definitely recommend

01/11/2025: Very nice breakfast in Garvey’s & lovely friendly staff. So convenient for parking and only a 5 minute walk from the town centre

03/02/2026: Went to a Christian Meditation group on a Monday evening at 7.30 . Different forms of meditation each week. Coordinated by either Fr Frank Okeefe or Pat Talbot. Believe there is also a Buddhist group..

03/01/2026: Came here for our 7th anniversary meal. Amazing Tbone!!

27/12/2025: Cracking local. Lovely food, staff and locals. Dog friendly..

19/08/2025: If you’re in Tralee, this is the bar you can’t miss. Start here, as you can then make your way into town and discover the other bars on the way down. Perfect starting place. The staff are friendly and welcoming and the clientele are the best Tralee has to offer. Great for watching a match or supporting the Rose of Tralee. Don’t skip it.

23/07/2025: I stay in tralee a lot for work and love the castle bar. Great place for watching sports. Great staff with lovely friendly mix of local folks and not so local like myself

14/01/2026: One of my favourite pubs to go to food is always tops staff r lovely n its local so all in all 👌

13/01/2026: Great place great food. Nice surroundings

26/01/2026: Definitely the best food around, a party of 9 of us there on sat & sun, all complimenting the various dishes. Steak sandwich was superb, desserts devine. Great staff and management. We'll be back .

14/01/2026: Visited Lough Bawn Hotel this evening. Absolutely fabulous food and service. Chicken Maryland was one of the best I'd ever had and the white chocolate and raspberry cheesecake was beautiful. Cannot recommend this place highly enough. Great staff and amazing food.

06/01/2026: The branch I frequently visit is in Salthill. The staff there are across the board, so friendly, obliging and courteous. The food, (my preference are the pies,) are all delicious. They make an ab fhab, what I refer to as a Giant Jaffa Cake. 😋😋😋 Well worth the shekels no matter what you like! 👍

16/12/2025: Got a coffee so cant really comment on the food, good prices but service was absolutely atrocious, place was falling apart, hand dryer dying and atmosphere is dead

23/11/2025: Great staff , pity about the owners who clearly have chip on there shoulders , don’t know what hospitality is , will not be back .

15/08/2025: Great place, fantastic food, superb Guinness :)

06/01/2026: Super cozy, friendly, and lovely love music.

19/12/2025: Was completely ignored by a bar member as I wanted to order a hot beverage and he threw a dirty look at me. Never again.

31/12/2025: Eur800.00 was deducted by Mara restaurant 4 days before the date of the reservation. No prior advice or agreement was given. I rang the restaurant owner thinking this was a mistake and the conversation began with an argument, no apology. I cancelled the reservation as a result and - in fairness - the money was returned immediately. I never received any apology for this transaction from Mara which leads me to believe they think this practice is ok. Avoid giving your card for reservation. Maybe the food is good but I'll never find out.

31/12/2025: 3 days before my reservation, Mara restaurant detained 800 euro from my card. The short version of this story is it took 2 weeks before I received the money back...And numerous phone calls and messages to the restaurant, my bank. Mara did not seem to know why I was charged in advance of the booking. I was so angry at the unauthorised deduction I cancelled the booking so I cannot review the food, service or atmosphere as I didn't go. I will never go to this restaurant. I am pretty outraged by this treatment and deeply mistrustful of ever giving my credit card again for reservation anywhere.

04/01/2026: One of the best steaks I ate ever. It comes on a heated stone with chips and dips. The atmosphere was very nice and the serving was quick. Definitely worth it

31/12/2025: Over priced for a village pub and a sly service charge of 10% menu is very simple
