The best restaurants in Rosslare

18/07/2024: Le restaurant et le bar sont richement décorés, de nombreuses œuvres d'art sont visibles dans tout le complexe hôtelier dont ils font partie. Il y a une belle sélection de vin et la cuisine ouverte offre un peu de spectacle. Des français, et leur savoir-faire, sont en cuisine et en salle. Nous sommes venus 2 soirs et avons été très bien reçus et accompagnés par un serveur d'origine française, ce qui a facilité notre compréhension du menu. En entrée, nous avons pris de la lotte enroulée dans du jambon et des saint jacques pêchées dans la région, tout les 2 étaient succulents. Nous avons ensuite pris des côtes d'agneau qui étaient fondantes et délicieuses, le poisson était également très bon. On nous a expliqué que les légumes accompagnant nos plats étaient fait le plus possible dans les jardins de l'hôtel, et ils étaient excellent. Nous avons fini par un dessert à base de fraises locales qui était parfait.

18/07/2024: Fantastic food and friendly staff. The menu is varied and very good value. Everything tasted amazing and was beautifully presented.

16/09/2024: Have used the Stena line and in future will stick to the Stena Line. Communication from Irish Ferries is extremely poor, in fact nonexistent. No one contacted to advise us of the change in boat and therefore facilities. When we asked on board it was just a contact them yourself attitude. I did email and received no apology, so I further asked when was the update email prior to sailing for when the change of facilities. No reply. We booked and paid for the Club Class on the Rosslare to Pembroke only on arrival to be told that on this boat it didn't exist. There was only 1 working toilet on thr boat for women which meant large queues and foul smelling for the duration. On the whole the boat felt outdated, grubby and as the cost was the same as the Stena very overpriced. Never again, I'll stick to the much better value and conditions of Stena for this crossing.

04/09/2024: Irish ferries Rosslare Sailed on the 14.45 crossing from Pembroke to Rosslare. Bad weather meant the crossing was delayed - completely fair enough - but on arrival we were kept on the car deck waiting for over 45 minutes. No explanation. Could not have been due to the weather as it had passed by then and we were securely docked. We missed a restaurant booking due to this, so no food for us. I emailed the company suggesting compensation - no chance. I then emailed again suggesting perhaps an upgrade to Club Class on our return trip as a tiny, tiny apology. They couldn’t be bothered to even reply. So…. Dear Irish Ferries. 1) What was the problem with getting the bow doors to open on arrival? 2) Why are you so extremely rude as to not reply to my second email?

30/01/2025: I booked the hotel months ago and reserved a table for the birthday of my husband in Beaches restaurant. I even emailed the hotel the day before we arrive to remind the restaurant. I was surprised that when we arrived there was no table for us according to a certain Michael and he is just putting us in a random table in the middle of the restaurant. I knew there was no reserved table for us because the table where he is putting us do not even have a card that said “reserved” like the other empty tables around in the best location of the room. I pointed the empty table with a “reserved” card on the side of the room and I said I wanted to be there. He insisted that it was reserved for somebody else because there was a card on it that says reserved. I asked why dont I have a reserved table when I specifically reserved a table for that nite for my husband’s birthday. He said there was no reserved table for us. I said I have an email that said I have a reserved table on that night. After a long exchanges with Michael, he was very rude and annoyed with me and reluctantly put us on the table that I wanted on the side. He showed his annoyance by snapping to remove the reserved card on top of the table. It is just my right to demand a table in a good location complete with the reserved card to know that they have complied with my request and not just to be put on a random empty table in the middle of the room. Empty tables in good location with reserved card are all over the place. I felt humiliated when I even need to demand a table which I already reserved and when Michael snapped the card on the table to show his annoyance! It ruined the night that should be a celebration! My husband and myself just tried to forget about it so that it will not ruin the rest of the night that was already ruined by Michael with his bad attitude! We were lucky we have an attentive waiter named Luca on our table to compensate. Michael do not know how to handle customer’s request. He should be trained more. And when a customer reserved a table they should reserve the table and put a card on that table that says it was reserved for that particular person. Customers felt their request were being heard that way. Michael should be trained more to be polite and do not show his rudeness infront of the customer who is only asserting her rights! Michael ruined our night with his rudeness!
