The best restaurants in Roscommon

29/03/2026: Nice little restaurant. Service was great all round. First course pâté was the best I've had in a long time. The scallops were perfectly cooked, went well with everything else on the plate, and the roe was left on (ideal). The lamb pastry and the crispy coconut rice dishes were very nice. The inconsistency in the size of the garnish on the rice was a bit weird though and felt unfitting. Halibut dish was alright. Every element of the dish was amazing, except for the halibut itself. Just a bit plain and a bit overcooked for me. Guinea fowl was lovely. Poached pear dessert was amazing. The baked Alaska was world class. Good portion sizes. I see myself returning

22/02/2026: Myself and my husband had a lovely meal in The Cottage restaurant this evening. The food was exceptional. Very tasty. Service was fantastic- waitresses and waiter were very attentive. We will be back and will certainly be recommending this restaurant to family and friends.

29/03/2026: Brilliant garden centre with huge selection at a great price. If you check online before you visit you can find some great buys they don't put on display for everyone to find.

24/03/2026: Had a great visit! They're not the cheapest, but make up for it in quality. The cafe is really good, lots of home made deliciousness!

17/04/2026: I cannot stress this enough - if you are nearby, go here. Everything was incredible. Some of the most delicious food we've ever had. The rump of lamb? Incredible. The almond and jam bakewell? Divine.

28/03/2026: Topnotch sea-bass pea/haddock risotto sublime. A birthday treat. It’s a great place to stop off on the way to Sligo or Mayo.

19/12/2025: Glowing Review for Strokestown House and Gardens (With Victorian Xmas Experience added) Nestled amidst the serene Irish countryside, Strokestown House and Gardens is an absolute gem, blending Victorian charm with modern sophistication. Our recent visit was nothing short of enchanting, as we embarked on a captivating Victorian photography tour guided by knowledgeable experts who transported us back in time with vivid anecdotes and historical insights within an actual time capsule of a lab. Stepping into the impeccably preserved mansion, we were greeted by the elegant drawing room, exuding an air of timeless grace. The juxtaposition of antique furnishings and contemporary accents seamlessly merged the past with the present, setting the stage for an unforgettable experience. Under the guidance of Tony, Martin, and Aidan, whose expertise and unwavering support elevated our learning experience. However, the highlight of our journey was the state-of-the-art conference room, a testament to Strokestown's commitment to innovation. Here, we delved into an AI image workshop, harnessing the power of cutting-edge technology with Midjourney software, in collaboration with Creative Heartlands. We navigated through the intricacies of digital creativity, unlocking new realms of artistic expression. Beyond the captivating surroundings and immersive activities, what truly sets Strokestown House apart is the warmth and hospitality extended by its dedicated staff. From the moment we arrived until our departure, every interaction was marked by genuine care and attentiveness, ensuring our comfort and satisfaction at every turn. In essence, Strokesyown House and Gardens and Famkne Museum transcends the ordinary, offering a harmonious blend of history, innovation, and hospitality. Whether you're seeking a journey through time or a sanctuary for creative exploration, this enchanting mansion promises an experience that lingers long after the visit concludes.The Park's House has been opened after an extensive refurbishment and it's spectacular. The fairy woodland walk and Victorian Gardens are a treat, too. The House now also boasts a cafe and gift shop with the entrance akin to that of a five-star hotel. The staff are courteous, knowledgeable, and extremely accommodating for families. This year we had a wonderful time at the Victorian Santa Claus Experience. From start to finish it felt genuinely magical and very well organised. Eilish handled the tour perfectly. She guided everyone smoothly to where they needed to be, kept everything on schedule, and was professional and warm throughout. It made a real difference to the experience, especially with families and excited children. The elves were fantastic and fully in character, Santa was pure excellence, and Mrs Claus completely stole the show. She was engaging, funny, and memorable in the best possible way. I would highly recommend this to any family looking for an authentic and thoughtfully put together Santa experience. It felt special, immersive, and genuinely festive. Can't wait to go back again.

08/12/2025: Since a significant refurbishment, the cafe is a pleasure to visit.

11/03/2026: very busy but an excellent place

01/01/2026: Underwhelmed Slow service, long wait, my lamb dish was very fatty. Didn't bother to stay for dessert and coffee Yes, it was New Year's Day But if you can't cope don't book so many tables.

17/04/2026: Nice and clean room. Nice details and a fridge is great. Comfortable bed. Noisy vacuum cleaning at 9pm in the evening near my room. Rude guy on desk in the pool area. Fitness and pool very clean and in good condition

03/03/2026: Unfortunately I'm unable to rate this venue as when we arrived it was closed. The bar is open but food is only served Thursday thru w/end. While we appreciate that customer is quiet this time of the year, it's not really too much to expect the information on line to be updated. So disappointed

07/02/2026: Went in last night no tabel booked no problem had one of the best steak I've had in years .Been here few times in last year and everytime food is 100 percent perfect staff very helpful and your not rushed . See you all soon...

23/11/2025: Friendly staff, very impressed with beautiful clean bedroom, just finished a very tasty breakfast, on our way home after a very enjoyable weekend, definitely come back again

22/11/2025: On a Friday night you know tourism is dead in the west when serving stops at half 12 on a "FRIDAY" night.... In the interest of bringing tourists in maybe open late and have trad music!!! Or does that not suit your propaganda!!

23/03/2026: Had sons confirmation there and we were made to feel unwelcome as staff just rushed everything out to us ..won't be going there again as some staff rolled eyes when asked for anything, family unfriendly atmosphere

25/01/2026: My first recommendation is that, if you want to book, do so directly with Gleeson's, because the price I paid through booking.com was almost twice what Gleeson's charges direct. This family-run establishment is served by really helpful and mostly friendly employees. As other reviews say, the breakfast is quite good, and I highly recommend trying their homemade scones if you have any interest. However, there are quite a few downsides. I heard every single person who walked by my door or up or down the stairs which were right by my room. I also heard everything from the rooms on either side, because it seems the walls are paper thin. Additionally, the rooms are quite dated and less in a charming way, and more in a 'wow, this is old and stained' kind of way (see pictures of chair and carpet). So, the breakfast and location are good and the staff is really nice, but the room was loud and pretty dingy. Also keep in mind that when they say 'double bed,' they mean it. As two adults used to a queen, neither got much sleep.

20/02/2026: Great food, great service, reasonable price.

19/12/2025: Ate in restaurant, nice setting/view, large number of options on menu, large portions, reasonable prices

07/01/2026: Great staff great food nice place 👍

04/01/2026: Fantastic wedding here all round
