The best restaurants in Athlone

20/09/2025: Excellent, steak selection was very good and cooked perfectly. Sides were just the right size. Very good overall

19/09/2025: We love the ambience and the food is marvelous..

08/08/2025: Excellent little restaurant. Went for the more expensive menu as fillet steak was on it. Every course was beautifully presented and tasted fantastic. Service was spot on. If I'm ever in Athlone again then I will be sure to eat here.

08/08/2025: A stellar meal in Athlone. A real focus on local produce, and expert handling. Rabbit and black pudding ballotine to start, a chocolate and cherry Mille feuille to finish, all homemade breads and the best cheese crackers have ever had. A recommendation to visit from anywhere.

07/09/2025: Probably the best food I have had in Ireland and definitely the best Thai food I have outside of Thailand. We were beyond surprised to find this gem in Athlone. The food was so delicious and very authentic. Rachel is a super star! She is very friendly and attentive. A huge shout out to everyone in the kitchen and a young man from KL who brought us our food. KinKhao a roi maak!

05/09/2025: Very good food, but too buzy, you can not get place if you are bit late.

15/09/2025: Haven't been in here in 50 years, complements to the management it is much improved! Place was hopping and a really nice atmosphere atmosphere. Lovely pints,I won't leave it so long for my next visit.

15/09/2025: Went to have a look at the oldest pub in the world. When we walked in a tour talk was going on and we were hustled out to the back. People had drinks but we couldn't get one as the bar was back where tour was going on. We walked out the back door and went elsewhere. Over touristy. Waste of time

30/09/2025: Incredible food, fast service and lovely atmosphere. Only downside is there are not many places to sit! We had Poached Eggs and Peanut Rayu, and pancakes for breakfast. They do generous sized portions and it’s super tasty! Everything is reasonably priced and great vegetarian and vegan options. Plant based milk is an additional cost.

29/09/2025: Beautiful food, best latte, great place

05/09/2025: Delicious food, and many of their pasta dishes and pizzas are available gluten free for coeliacs. I had a gluten free pasta and no problems afterwards.

01/09/2025: This restaurant is amazing the food is top notch I got garlic mushrooms to start that were really nice but the main was outstanding it’s called Rogatoni Al Cartocio I really recommend it you’ll be amazed how it’s presented and the taste is 10/10 Best I’ve ever had.

06/07/2025: Went here last Friday evening with 2 friends for the Friday evening aperetivo. Had a selection of italian foods that you wouldn't normally experience in an Italian restaurant along with a selection of bruschetta. A lovely glass of nero d'avola. Very generous selection of food , great flavour and great value. We will be back!

02/07/2025: The pizza is just chef's kiss. I'm vegan and delighted to see 2 vegan options for the menu (marinara and vegan). It's a weekly appointment I can't miss out. The coffee is authentic Italian espresso. And the staff couldn't be lovelier! The very best to Chiara, Roberto and their family!

24/08/2025: Robert is an exceptional waiter — truly a machine! His service was outstanding, and he treated us with great professionalism and kindness. Highly recommended!

24/07/2025: Wandered into this gorgeous restaurant Tuesday this week. Before I even speak about the delicious food, I want to mention the service and the people. They were so attentive and professional, warm and kind. People make a place for me. Attention to detail has been lost in a lot of restaurants, but not this place! Everything on the menu was so appealing but we both ended up going for one of the specials of the day, the sirloin. The tastes, the sauces, the love put into the food was second to none! We had a pinot grigio and Argentinan Malbec to accompany them. My malbec was full bodied and bold, it went perfectly with my meat. We then had espresso martinis instead of desserts- again delicious! It was my mums first espresso martini and it didnt disappoint. My mother mentioned we were out celebrating and they brought down a complimentary dessert with Congratulations written on it- so kind and lovely. We were very impressed and will be back aome day

21/09/2025: Great spot, pub section full of character, great pint. Had food downstairs in the restaurant, rib eye was divine. Service was excellent, we were a big group, 40+ and staff were organised and worked well together to keep all tables satisfied. Great trad session in full flow back upstairs after our meal. Highly recommend!!

19/09/2025: This is the spot! Fantastic food, drinks and service! They took excellent care of us and we’ll absolutely be back!

27/09/2025: Best burger ever. And the chips. Best in Ireland. Hand cut with the skins on.

27/09/2025: I’ve never had Irish food, but wow this food was great, very tasty, I had an Irish stew and was I impressed.
