Hole in the Wall
Kilkenny
04/02/2026: A must see. We met a number of great locals and tourists in this charming wee pub. Highly recommended!!
23/01/2026: Brian is awesome at this teeny tiny pub! We were only able to stay for one drink (tired mother-in-law), but we wish we could have stayed for hours! Thanks for the brief bit of music and camaraderie!

River Court Hotel
Kilkenny
13/01/2026: Myself and my partner got married in the River Court hotel on 2nd June 2017. From the first days of planning to the day of the wedding was just so easy. The staff were brilliant and everthing was handled so professionally. The day went without a hitch and the food was just fabulous. The Location is just perfect too with Kilkenny Castle as the backdrop along side the river. I would not have any hesitation in recommend this hotel for your wedding or ever a dirty weekend lol
01/01/2026: Excellent hotel. Friendly staff. Delicious food. Ideally situated in the center of Kilkenny City, and walking distance to the historic Kilkenny Castle. We have stayed here a good number of times & will be returning again very soon.

Brewery Corner
Kilkenny
19/09/2025: Extremely nice bartenders! Good atmosphere, you will feel comfortable at once.
06/09/2025: O'Hara's tap room. Went there and had really good beer. Spoke with two of the bartenders (possibly owners?) asked for a sticker (which no breweries or distillers carry in Ireland) and received a free t shirt instead. Great place good people!

Statham's
Kilkenny
30/08/2025: Darren and team were great! In from Nashville, TN and had the best stay and breakfast was delish (smoked trout) . Must stay in kilkenny!
27/08/2025: Myself and my partner had dinner in Statham’s by Pembroke on Saturday night and to say the food was out of this world is an understatement, each course was prepared and served to perfection. The staff were so helpful and friendly, the atmosphere was amazing. This is a top class venue with the most delicious food i have ever eaten can't wait to come back again.

Lanigans Bar
Kilkenny
10/02/2026: We originally came for a pizza for two, but ended up being tempted by their cottage pie. A generous portion for only €10 and absolutely delicious. The dessert was just as good. Bonus points for the playlist!
27/01/2026: Had a couple of drinks in the bar. Were originally going to have food, but we're sent upstairs, which was pretty dreary, so came back down and opted for drinks instead. Big screen for matches. Not a lot of atmosphere at 10m on a rainy Saturday.

Applegreen
Kilkenny
22/01/2026: Almost €8 for a sandwich and €4 for a coffee at a service station can’t be justified by inflation, by “costs,” or by any modern excuse. That’s not paying for quality or service: it’s squeezing a captive customer because they know you’re passing through, tired, or without alternatives. And on top of that, the product is often mediocre or downright bad.
The most insulting thing isn’t just the price, it’s the normalization of the rip-off:
• Industrial bread
• Minimal filling
• An average coffee (when it isn’t bad)
• And the feeling that they’re taking you for a fool
That creates exactly what you felt: indignation—not because of the money, but because of shameless greed. Shameful, yes. And counterproductive too: more and more places jump on that bandwagon and then wonder why people stop going there.
The only good thing is that you don’t forget an experience like that:
next time, if possible, bring a thermos of coffee, a homemade sandwich, or stop somewhere else. Not because you can’t afford it, but because it’s not worth rewarding abuse.
03/12/2025: Last year, I wrote that the Standards had dropped here with a reducion in the quality of service. This has been completely reformed with a service of high qulity and satisfying breakfast. I highly recommend this facility as a quality stop in your journey. Well done to everyone who carried out the improvements to the service here. I've revised its star rating to 5 stars. Well worth a visit.

The Metropole
Kilkenny
17/10/2025: It's a shame I can't offer less. Avoid it!
28/09/2025: The most disgusting place I have ever stayed. We opened up the drawer beside the bed to find green mould. There was stains all over the carpets and walls. The shower door nearly fell down on top of me. However we did get great entertainment out of reading the reviews and owners responses.

Marble City Grill
Kilkenny
15/11/2025: I've never had food as horrible as this in my entire life literally. I ordered some chips, a quarter pounder and a battered sausage. The battered sausage and the quarter pounder had to be at least three days old and tasted like leather,It was very overpriced anyway, I wouldn't have minded paying if the food was at least half decent. By God stay away and walk 50 metres down to you're left to the Roma Café. It's just trash given to people.. It felt like I was robbed. Never again am I coming back. Edit. Tried this place again from just eat I got a phone call to say food was being delivered waited over an hour the delivery driver wouldn't answer and the restaurant wouldn't answer either if that's what you wanna call it,I had food previously and it was fine but I will never order again from there it's cheap enough for a reason the food is either cold, absolutely horrendous,or you just don't get it .....I definitely don't recommend this place spend an extra 5 quid for edible food and guaranteed that you'll get it,such a shame,and the delivery driver wouldn't even answer his phone I sent a message telling him to eat the food himself as it was way too late for me. The restaurant doesn't care less about it's customers not about food quality.
23/10/2025: If you looking for a place of diner on a go. With quite a selection and food that hits the spot. This is a great place to choose.

04/07/2025: Tuvimos una comida fabulosa aquí hoy en el bar Marble City, llegamos sin reserva y tuvimos la suerte de que nos sentaran de inmediato, Kevin, nuestro camarero, fue muy amable, servicial y paciente con 2 comensales quisquillosos, la comida era deliciosa y una experiencia encantadora en todos los sentidos, volveremos.
04/07/2025: En un viaje reciente a Kilkenny, tuve la suerte de pasar por el bar Marble City para almorzar. He visitado Kilkenny en muchas ocasiones pero nunca había comido aquí antes. Kevin, que era agradable, conversador y todo un caballero, me sirvió una comida deliciosa. Esto hizo que mi experiencia fuera muy placentera y tengo toda la intención de volver a venir aquí para comer.

Victorian Castle Kitchen
Kilkenny
30/07/2025: Avoid at all costs! Zero stars if I could.
Terrible service, terrible atmosphere, overpriced!
Staff more interested in texting, chatting- had to go into back room to ask for someone to take order even though they could see a queue of people waiting! Forgot part of order and pretty miffed when asked if could have it. No vegetarian options but “we could take the ham off the the ham and cheese sandwich”.
Avoid, avoid, avoid! Lots of cafes and restaurants outside the castle to go to!
