The best restaurants in Sligo

07/09/2025: Good portion sizes of tasty food at very reasonable prices.

01/09/2025: Great pub with a welcoming atmosphere, a nice menu, and a good choice of drinks. The live music was a great touch too. The chicken curry and the burger were both amazing—full of flavor and cooked perfectly. Just a heads up, the portions are huge! We originally planned to have dessert, but after finishing our meals, there was simply no room left. Definitely excellent value for money and worth a visit.

22/09/2025: Love Swagman! Staff are all friendly, variety of drink selection, plenty of seating options and food is beautiful. Best pub in Sligo town ran by a gentleman in Dale!

19/09/2025: Great place, the seafood chowder is a class

14/02/2025: Amazing food and service here. You are made feel at home.

13/02/2025: After visiting Sligo, I visited here two days in a row. The Korean food here was delicious, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. If you ever visit Sligo, I highly recommend stopping by.

09/09/2025: Fantastic food and excellent service. Pre-theatre menu is good value. Was a bit noisy other than that it was perfect.

05/09/2025: We got the tasting menu. There was too much food which meant we didn't enjoy the last two courses. With a tasting menu the portions should be smaller so we get to sample everything that's offered and we paid for. The suggestion that we would take away food from a tasting menu I think defeats the purpose. Other than that, the food was very tasty and the service was good, though I think the young staff put their hands too close to the food when explaining the dishes.

09/09/2025: Friendly staff, excellent fish so fresh. Reasonable price

08/09/2025: Caddie recommended it. Exceeded expectations. Incredible steak. If you’re looking for a high end steakhouse caliber of dinner, you won’t be disappointed.

07/09/2025: Great food. Good choices too - food and drinks. Clearly professional staff. Good atmospheres after food finishes and no rush to leave.

01/09/2025: Very good food. Adequate attention. Good company during meals. Small spaces.

17/09/2025: Outstanding food and outstanding service! The lamb tagine was great.

16/09/2025: Came in for dinner on a Tuesday evening. Really amazing food and great service. We had the Jerk Chicken & Jollof rice and the fish curry plus some sides. Genuinely really excellent and would recommend to all. Thank you!

02/10/2025: This pub was born from the merger of the local bar and the shop. Its decor features quite old artifacts, no wonder, since it opened in 1780. We received exquisite treatment from everyone (owner and staff), and while we enjoyed a pint of Guinness, they told us about the history of the establishment.

21/09/2025: Welcomed by waiter, Paul, awesome guy there. Very authentic, old pub in the heart of Sligo. Very good vibe with lots of history. He showed us very old bottles and equipement too. Highly recommended!

11/09/2025: A good hotel to spend a few nights in

11/08/2025: Lovely family friendly hotel. Enjoyed the bar food.

15/09/2025: Lovely place. Very welcoming. Chips were particularly good.

15/09/2025: Ive been here a couple of times by myself and with my partner whenever im free and they are open, the food is absolutely delicious, best burgers in Sligo. And the atmosphere is extremely welcoming , the workers are friendly and there is one guy ( not sure of his name) thats always in a happy mood always smiling. He brings an amazing vibe to the place and ends up making you smile too.

12/09/2025: Unfortunately although the details online stated they were open until 10pm food stopped much earlier but wasn’t mentioned. A wasted trip.

11/09/2025: Fish and Chips + Lamb soup both delicious. 👍👍

14/08/2025: I had a terrible nights sleep due to the sound of slamming bedroom doors in the corridor from 2 am to 4am.

10/08/2025: This hotel is in a perfect location for the whole of Sligo town clean well equipped rooms friendly staff good service great food this is the place to stay if you’re wanting a town visit every thing is within walking distance

20/09/2025: Appetising and flavourful food, excellent service with an amosphere of genuine cordiality. Extremely pleasant experience

28/07/2025: I had high hopes for this place when I walked in. Lovely decor and felt like a nice atmosphere. I found the menu good and the prices were a little eye watering. I had the prawns as the starter. These were quite tasty and the portion size was just right for a starter. On to the mains, I ordered the 40 day rib eye steak. An 8oz cut if I remember correctly was about €45. I gave them the benefit of doubt, hoping it would be a tasty cut of meat. Alas, it turned out to be very bland. It came out looking like a burger from Burger king. Call me old school, but a steak should be nicely pan fried and not char grilled. I have had much nicer rib eye elsewhere and for about €10 cheaper too. My advise to the embassy, although I know totally impractical, would be, make the price €50 and make the steak Wagyu. I would happily pay for a good cut of Wagyu any time. I didn't have any desert so can't comment on them. I liked that they had Erdinger to drink though. Service was very good and staff were friendly and helpful. 5 out of 5 for the staff. However if your looking for a tasty steak, I would probably try elsewhere.

24/08/2025: I don’t know the area but if you’re after filter coffee in Sligo, go here. Perfect brew.

19/08/2025: Awesome 👌 Fitout + the coffee is right up there. Kidz says the Fruitshoot is top notch also 🤪

09/07/2025: Lyons cafe ......as good it gets, tasty, reliable, reasonably priced. Great staff, great buzz highly recommended! We especially enjoyed the chicken, leek and bacon pie followed by the pear and almond dessert, simply sublime!

21/06/2025: This place does not disappoint. We've been here a couple of times the food has been 10/10 with each dish ordered; from soup to salad, dish of the day to vegetarian option. The only problem with visiting Sligo is there are so many tasty eateries to choose from. But do try to check this place out.
