The best restaurants in Athlone

20/06/2026: The food is delicious, the service is very good, and the staff are friendly. I wish them all the best.

13/06/2026: Nicest pizza and milkshake I ever tasted. Staff are very pleasant.

23/04/2026: I used to really like this place, but after today I’m honestly shocked. I ordered takeaway and also bought prawn crackers. Right before handing me my order, a staff member picked up one bag of crackers, said “oh, another one,” and gave me a different (but identical-looking) packet instead. I didn’t think much of it at the time, but when I got home, I discovered there were bugs inside the crackers 🤮🤢 It makes me feel like the staff member was aware of the issue and still chose to give it to me. This is extremely unhygienic and very disrespectful to customers who are paying for their food. After this experience, I won’t be coming back!!!

27/02/2026: Big place, traditional chinese style. Excellent food. Very tasty meals, everything was excellent 👌 we really enjoyed our dinner, shredded chicken with saute sauce and fillet beef with black bean sauce. The service was amazing, very attentive girl, even though it was busy. Definitely recommended, sit in and enjoy.

25/06/2026: Overly expensive and poor lunch. Asked for our food heated (ciabatta and quiche) and was only warm in parts and ice cold in the center. For the price paid it's not worth it. Go to Quigley's downstairs or Savoury Fare on John Brodericks street

23/06/2026: We had a delicious caesar salad prepared and served by the attentive staff Armina, Annette, Oifa, and the young man who cleared the table, his name I can't remember.

03/06/2026: The room was clean and the self-check in super easy. It’s got a private parking area and is located a short walk from the castle and river. We had a great stay here.

29/05/2026: It was ok for a short stay, but I wish they had central ventilation, because it was a bit to warm in the room and the window opened just a little bit.It's not a hotel anymore,more like serviced apartment building.

01/06/2026: Cash in hand please bare that in mind.

30/05/2026: lowered rating for not being able to pay by card, cash only

29/05/2026: They have a clean toilet and room. Food here is good, but not an extraordinary, or without special touch. Especially their chicken wings without extra sauce. It was tasted like a regular fried chicken. Nothing special. Pan tai noodles had almost the same history, but their recipe with nuts saved it a little. Also I don't understand when you must pay extra money to take food outside, or eat in the cafe. The fact that staff can't explain their policy in English language didn’tbother me. Could you recommend me something another on their menu? Unfortunately I can't understand people who rate this cafe more than 4 stars, or even 5 stars. Sorry, for that, that's true. Hello. Please, could you support my hobby and put your royal like for me? Thank you!

22/05/2026: Delicious! Absolutely recommend. Great portions, decent price, fast and cooked fresh

04/05/2026: Delicious food at reasonable price and great customer service

07/02/2026: We had a fantastic meal in Pavarotti’s. Highly recommend it. The bruschetta, seafood salad, pizza frutti de mare and cannelloni all delicious. Brilliant atmosphere and the staff were so friendly. A point to note you can bring your own wine with a €4 corkage.

20/05/2026: Staff great Food great Recommended

17/05/2026: High quality food and great service. One of the better Italin restaurants that I have been in.

31/10/2025: The Guinness was absolutely woeful, swapped over to Murphy's and it was worse. Stay away for the stouts.

09/06/2026: We were invited to go have a pint. The Guinness was great, the company fabulous, atmosphere perfect.

14/05/2026: A lovely pub to visit in the heart of Athlone.

23/06/2026: Food was great and loved the service of the people at the restaurant. I thought the food might be very greasy and still gave it a go and turned out not to be. Can recommend this place!

16/06/2026: Food dripping with greace the bun must of been deep fried it was so awful never again the place was nice decorated but chicken was also bum don’t go here you will clog your arteries

01/06/2026: VERY expensive sandwiches. The most expensive so far in Ireland, including Dublin, at €11.50 each. Unfortunately they were probably the worst too and definitely by a wide margin the smallest. We were expecting a really good sandwich for that price but they were very small and not worth anything like the cost. Not recommended.

01/06/2026: We stopped in here after leaving the iconic Sean's Bar. So glad we did! The grilled salmon was to die for! I had it with the white wine sauce. Delicious! My husband had the breaded cod. The fish was super tender and you could taste the fish. It wasn't overwhelmed by the breading. My sister-in-law had the ch8cken stir fry and literally there was nothing left on her plate! I would highly recommend this restaurant!

23/06/2026: Peddler Macs is a family owned bar with an amazing atmosphere of a warm welcome feel the minute you walk in. The food is fabulous and the staff just make you feel so welcome and special. I would highly recommend Peddler Macs for a super afternoon, evening or night out🥳🥳 Thank you Bryan, Kevin and Larry for a fabulous night out🎉🎉 We will definitely be back🤩🤩🥳🥳

08/06/2026: Decent pub with a covered beer garden out the back where they serve pizza 🍕 Music 7 nights a week. Good vibe about the place.

08/05/2026: Brilliant place for a family night out, a treat for your kids, or even just a simple door dash after work. Burgers are excellent chips are nicely seasoned and the milkshakes are top tier. The only reason I give this four stars is the looks of the burgers. They usually look a bit sad. I guess no Instagram pics for the ladies, eh? But I'm not materialistic so I don't mind.

05/05/2026: I orderd a medium mcplant with garlic sauce, (they forget the garlic sauce) Medium fries: the fries was cooked well but the oil taste was really bad. Taste like burned oil. I was a chef, i know the oil wasn't changed for days. But nice people.
