The best restaurants in Sligo

21/10/2025: Oysters were absolutely delicious! Will definitely be back for more. The staff probably could not be more apathetic and disinterested if they tried. I came in through the back by accident and took a seat, not knowing orders must be made at the counter (some signs around the restaurant might help in this regard), I was sat there a good 10-15 min with no one providing any kind of assistance. I had to get the attention of a waitress who then informed me of the procedure to order at the counter. Every single person working there looked as lifeless as the oysters being served, I didn't see any staff member smile once. It just made the entire experience a little glum... The setting itself was nice and comfortable enough, but I felt like I was imposing by simply being a customer... I think some motivation is needed for the staff?

29/09/2025: We used to live in New Orleans, La. USA which is renowned for its oysters and I have to say that Sligo Oyster Experience has the best oysters we have ever had anywhere in the world! We had the raw, herb baked and cheese baked oysters. This is a MUST stop if you are anywhere near Sligo. PS, the vegetable soup is divine!

08/06/2026: Called in on the off chance of a lunch time half pint and was pleasantly surprised by how welcoming the barman was. Add to that the quality of the beer (draught Guinness) was excellent and the atmosphere in the bar was superb. Thank you all

04/06/2026: Really lovely pint here and great location. Sadly no food on the day. Lovely spot to watch the world go by.

14/11/2025: Dock84 in Sligo delivers a consistently high-quality experience that stands out in the region. The interior is modern without feeling contrived, the atmosphere is relaxed, and the staff operate with a level of professionalism that is both efficient and genuinely welcoming. The menu is well-designed, offering a balance of familiar dishes and more inventive options. Ingredients are fresh, portions are appropriate, and presentation is polished. Service is timely even during busy periods, and the team manages to stay attentive without being intrusive.

10/11/2025: I popped in this morning for breakfast and was disappointed with the food quality. The avocado was clearly spoiled brown, mushy, and definitely not safe to eat. They applied a 15% discount, but this isn’t about the money; it’s about the serious health risk of serving food in that condition. It raises real concerns about food safety and cross-contamination in the kitchen. Totally unacceptable, and I really hope management addresses this issue promptly.

14/06/2026: Very very disappointing food. We decided to stop for some lunch after a long drive from Galway and for Father’s Day. We all had fish and chips which was absolutely beyond disappointing. The fish was a super thin piece of fish that was very over fried, more batter than fish and the chips were either cooked in old oil or were very over fried aswell. €23 per plate of the most disappointing fish and chips we’ve ever had. It’s such a lovely spot, the food just really needs improvement to warrent having to pay so much.

14/05/2026: Great spot on the Quay/dock/harbor

12/05/2026: Probably the best kebab in Sligo. If you want a decent juicy big kebab, this is the place.

03/05/2026: Is this kind of jokes ? Is this chicken wing’s comes with well done and fry ? Horrible taste 🥲

29/04/2026: Chicken kebab was really bad but the staff were sound. I think I deserve it for ordering a kebab in an Italian restaurant tbh

18/12/2025: Very delicious pizza and very friendly and smiling staff.

16/11/2025: WORST EXPERIENCE EVER!!!! ordered a spice box and they didnt give it to us. not to mention the last time they took an hour and a half to come and it looked like there was a booger on the food and there was hair in it. terribly rude staff didnt even offer a refund or a new munch box. never order from here ive gotten food poisoning a few times from the chicken being uncooked too

08/11/2025: Great food. Great service Great price. Very fast..

06/08/2025: Delicious coffee, nice staff. Beautiful view of the river from the terrace.

07/07/2025: I enjoy the food but not the beverages. I ordered a cappuccino which was very weak and tasteless. Was advised they use medium roast. Tea also bland. Not to my taste but the cakes and scones are good.

08/05/2026: Might be the greatest chinese i've ever had, as soon as I entered the Restaurant, the atmosphere from staff and people around was great. The food was amazing and I will definetly be visiting frequently especially for those spice bags.

27/04/2026: Unironically cried tears of joy when my food came out

25/02/2026: Learn some manners young man, your manager need to give you a crash course in customer service

07/05/2026: Loved it. Food was lovely and also the staff. We will be back.

02/05/2026: Myself and my friends went in and multiple times they forgot to bring food to our table and we had to ask 3 times for one item and it took 20 minutes for on drink. One lady with terrible customer service

18/05/2026: The place has really lost its character since the renovated it a few years ago. "Bloating" food

11/05/2026: Food great service a bit slow but it was very busy

08/06/2026: The hotel is relatively centrally located in Sligo, just a short walk from the town center with its many pubs and restaurants. A large parking lot directly at the hotel offers free parking. The reception area and lobby are reminiscent of a grand hotel. The staff (reception, dining room) were very friendly. The breakfast was excellent in terms of selection, variety, and freshness. Our room was spacious but unfortunately lacked air conditioning, which I expect as standard in a hotel of this category. It was very hot in the room, which was unpleasant and made it difficult to sleep. The fitness center was unfortunately closed on weekends, which I found very disappointing. Other hotels handle this better. I don't need supervision or guidance to exercise.

06/06/2026: Perfect in every way Plush chintzy lounge Loved it! The best biggest bed ever! Excellent

17/12/2025: Sound staff very easy to deal with

03/11/2025: The garavogue has turned into a dump of a pub with some of the most ignorant bouncers I've ever met. Thankfully I don't go out much but will make sure to not go back there.

22/09/2025: We had an excellent experience on Saturday for my sister in law to be’s hen party. We had a cocktail class, led by the very professional bar manager (I’m so sorry I cannot recall his name), expertly led and very accommodating, my sister is a wheelchair user and he brought the cocktail ingredients to her table and completed the demo - afterwards we went into Maeve’s for a drink where they cleared a table to ensure we all got to sit together at a low table to accommodate the wheelchair. We then went to Waxies for our dinner, we had a two course menu - the food was divine and the staff were absolutely lovely there also.. We returned to Garravogue later on for some dancing, a table was reserved for us alongside some complimentary shots!! Special shout out to Robbie, the head doorman - he was brilliant, nothing was ever an issue, he was so accommodating 😁
