The best restaurants in Roscommon

08/07/2026: Lovely award winning restaurant

05/07/2026: I'm just back from a Sunday lunch visit to The Cottage and had to immediately write a short review. It was exceptional. Sometimes you're handed a menu and there's only one or two options that appeal to you - making your choice of starter and main course easy - but this is not the way The Cottage rolls. Plenty of options, lots of variety and I wanted all of them - but eventually chose tuna to start and duck for my main. The food was beautifully presented, delicately seasoned and in the case of my duck main, served in monstrously big portions. Every bite was delicious but to then hit me with a dessert trolley and a waitress who seems to have taken a leaf out of Mrs Doyles book ('Ah go on, have another little bit') was more than my waistline could bear. EUR40 for the Sunday lunch menu is an absolute steal. The food was amazing, the setting in historic Jamestown was lovely and the staff were warm & welcoming. Highly recommended!

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.

17/06/2026: Went for a coffee with a friend and never again. If your staff don’t want to be there then please send them home. Rude and abrupt service and attitude

14/07/2026: If you're looking for an authentic Irish pub, An Craoibhín is the perfect place. This small, cozy pub exudes the charm of a classic village pub with a relaxed and informal atmosphere where you'll immediately feel at home. The food was delicious, freshly prepared, and served in generous portions. The friendly and attentive service made the visit absolutely perfect.

21/04/2026: Lovely staff here, truly. My service dog was very welcome, they had to check in the restaurant but it was no problem at all in the end. The staff was super sweet to her as well. Our room was comfortable and clean. For breakfast there's a menu to choose from. I had full irish on the first morning which was very tasty. On the second morning I had pancakes which were fluffy and not too sweet. Coffee and tea in the room which was great as well. Thanks for the lovely stay.

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

12/07/2026: Perfect Rye Sourdough. Helpful friendly service. Lovely place.

02/07/2026: Fantastic course! The course conditions were perfect - great greens, lush fairways, and well kept tee boxes. There were varied and interesting holes (I’m talking to you, number 13!). The staff was friendly, they honored the Golfamore discount, and it was right next to the Hobson Bay Hotel. We also ate at the club and the lasagne was very, very good. Everything was 5 star.

20/06/2026: Smashing test of golf. Well worth a visit.

11/05/2026: Had a lovely meal there on a Sunday evening....beautiful spot, with a welcoming log burner and warm and friendly host Roger. The food was excellent...my friend ordered the meat platter which was ginormous and tasty...the generous portions of lasagne that my other friend and I had, were very satisfying after a boat trip out amongst the islands on Lough Key. Can't think of a better way to spend a sunny Sunday afternoon in May... highly recommend! Cheers!

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

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

04/01/2026: Fantastic wedding here all round
