1810 STEAKHOUSE
Athlone
21/02/2026: Staff were lovely, really good ambiance in the restaurant. We chose the empanadas as a starter, they were incredibly fresh with fragrant and well seasoned meat inside. As a main we chose the shared ribeye which genuinely ended up being the most mouth-watering steak we had ever tasted. It was overwhelmingly flavourful, with 3 dipping choices. We additionally got the salad, fries and onion rings. Each dish was well presented and tasted divine. Recommend this place full heartedly. Best steak in Athlone !!
15/02/2026: Starters & dessert poor

Bastion Kitchen
Athlone
30/12/2025: I visited this place on 29th December at around 3:15 pm intending to order the day’s special sandwich, but my experience was very disappointing. Instead of preparing it fresh, I saw the staff member take the sandwich straight from the refrigerator. I don’t understand how a “day’s special” can be sold from a fridge rather than being freshly made.
On top of that, the girl behind the counter was using the same gloves to touch her phone, handle other items, and then serve food without changing them. This is extremely unhygienic and unacceptable in a food service environment.
Due to the poor hygiene practices maintained by the food handler, I will not be returning and cannot recommend this place to others. After seeing this I couldn’t even eat the wraps that I order and had to dump. Unfortunately 17 euros that I spent there went straight to trash
30/12/2025: Nice place to visit. Large portions and delicious food.

Spice India
Athlone
17/02/2026: Lovely staff, seated us at the window so we could watch the people go by. Take away phone was ringing like crazy so we knew we were in for a treat. The lamb and chicken was nicely cooked. Bit on the pricey side though for what we got. Wouldn't return again for sit down meal, but would probably order take out.
15/02/2026: Well crafted cocktail, refreshing.

29/12/2025: The place is really cute and cosy, such a cosy spot to relax. The service was excellent, we felt very well looked after. The food is absolutely amazing! I loved the fish and chips, full of flavour, and the apple vinaigrette was such a lovely surprise — it went perfectly. The portion was generous and really satisfying.
