West Wicklow House
Blessington
26/05/2025: Nice place with decent food, but it is a bar food. If you’re hungry after hiking it’s a nice spot. Service could be better, no one took our order.
19/05/2025: Could you please confirm if you are opening on Tuesday from 10h or 12h? On the website it says 10h, but on Google, 12h. Many thanks!

The Avon
Blessington
03/06/2025: I can only give feedback about the houses. They are mostly in good condition. 3 rooms with en suit bathrooms. Nice spacious kitchen with dining room and living room all in one space but nicely set up. Avon is situated near a lake and has beautiful views. Many places to take a walk, for example the forest around the lake. Also places to see. There is a cafe and food court on the premises. There is also security, which is good.
29/05/2025: Gorgeous place to come
For a walk or bite to eat, parking is very expensive. Didn’t stay overnight just visiting for the lake views

Brew Twenty One
Blessington
04/06/2025: The coffee isn't that good but more importantly they only serve in black plastic cups. A coffee shop should use ceramic mugs for sit in orders in my opinion. I like to avoid drinking from heated plastic, and there was no way to here.
19/05/2025: Sambos fantastic and great price!

Spice Village Indian Restaurant
Blessington
15/05/2025: Have had food h many times here ,enjoy it ,but something has changed as went for site down meal and after 20mins waiting and going and asking for a menu I gave up and walked out ,more interested in take away than people who want to dine in
12/05/2025: I'm very sorry that I can't give less than 1 star.
This place shouldn't be called a restaurant.
Came back again after few years of first disappointment.
Nothing better.
I had to wait at an empty table for over 30 minutes after placing my order.
No ordered drinks or complimentary snacks.
Very slow service.
Got my bottle of Cobra beer (€5 for sml bottle?) together with portion of pappadams and my starter at the same time.
I love Indian food but food in this place that's disaster.
Chicken mango curry taste like dessert
( extremely sweet), lamb curry a bit better except the rubbery meat.
Small portions of curry very expensive with no rice included.
Small cup of rice ( not enough for adult)
extra €3.50.
Pan fried naan bread looks more like roti or chapati very skinny and flat.
Staff nor very friendly and not helpful at all.
Our table was very messy, full of empty,unused and unwanted plates and glasses.
The waiters didn't bother to remove them before they start serving our food and didn't clean the table when we finished.
If I ordered dessert, I would have to hold the plate on my lap.
At 10pm waiter told us that if we need anything else we have to order now as kitchen will be closed at 10.30pm.
10 minutes later I asked him if I can get 2 mango lassi for take away but he refused and said it was too late. Seriously?
For 1 starter, 2 mains+ rice, small kids portion of curry and couple soft drinks had to pay over €80. I went home still a bit hungry.
I won't go there again.

Hennessy's Bar and Lounge
Blessington
04/05/2025: Hadn't been in this pub in decades and it was like walking back in time in a lovely way. This and Hennessy's hardware has really stood the test of time, a hundred years to be precise and both are a credit to them. The highly experienced and professional bar tender trained in the landmark Downshire Hotel many moons ago so he knows his stuff and is a credit to Hennessy's bar making a strong presence in commanding the house.
It was quite when I visited but the cosy seating arrangement hubs are still the same. Lovely bar, great family and lovely clientelle.
May they have another hundred year's of generational success.
Thank you.
Kind regards.
08/01/2025: Cozy lounge, great atmosphere, great staff and a good pint too. Dropped in with my Son as we were in the area, he said he definitely wanted to go back.

Tikka Take Away
Blessington
16/04/2025: The takeaway options in Blessington are below par at best and we said we’d try tikka for something different, hoping we would eventually find some (flavour).. they only took cash, had to go get cash and come back.. we got a spice box..then we got home and opened it.. we knew straight away it was going to be atrocious. No colour to the chicken, 6-10 pieces at max, which was very scarce, a million chips though. So there was no veg, the usual pepper, onion etc you would expect.. but absolutely overloaded with salt. We ate 2/3 bites and had to bin the rest. They need to look at how average/ good takeaways season/prep they’re food because in all honesty this was very close to the worst I have eaten. I will never go back nor will neighbours who say they avoid this place.

Maxol Service Station Blessington
Blessington
18/03/2025: Very nice Maxol.
Thoughtfully laid out and well stocked given that it is quite small.
One star removed because of the card machine fuel pump does not work. This is a pain in the rear, especially after hours and motorists are both stuck and mislead.

The Big Blue Bus
Blessington
30/06/2024: The place is quite good, the pizzas are a little expensive for the size, but they taste good. They attended to us in Spanish despite being in Ireland, the service was very good. The atmosphere is the best of all, to be with friends it is phenomenal; They have ludo and two XXL sized jengas, very fun.
13/04/2024: I highly recommend this great place
