Stopped by for lunch on a sunny day and grabbed a seat on the covered patio. Heat lamps were a nice touch. Penne alla vodka was solid, creamy without being heavy. Pizza held up well too. Debbie took care of us, checked in just enough without hovering. Wouldn&#39;t mind coming back when the weather cooperates again.

Waited nearly two hours for mains on a busy night. They comped a drink as an apology, which was decent. Food made up for it though.

The lamb stew was the only thing I cared about, and it was spot on. Tender meat, proper gravy, none of that watery stuff. I&rsquo;ve had a few orders messed up lately, but honestly, as long as the food&rsquo;s right, I&rsquo;m not fussed. Didn&rsquo;t get an apology for it, but that&rsquo;s not why I&rsquo;m here.

Small spot in the middle of Kenmare, really handy. Menu&#39;s got plenty of interesting picks, though the dishes can be spicier than you&#39;d expect. Service was quick and friendly. Just wish the tables weren&#39;t so close together.

Club sandwich was solid, cajun chicken ciabatta hit the spot too. Hot chocolate was a nice bonus. Prices fair for what you get. Quick enough for a lunch stop.

The venison was properly tender, loads of flavour in it. Shellfish starter was a nice little trio, each one done different. That was the standout for me. Rest of it was fine but nothing I&#39;d be rushing back for. Decent feed overall, just not sure it lives up to the hype.

Came back here again last week and the food was still piping hot, just like every other visit. Toilets spotless too, which I always notice. Fair price for Killarney.

Service gets a bit slow when it&rsquo;s packed, but the staff are sound and look after you.

We arrived on a busy Saturday without a booking and they still found us a table. That was a relief. The food was lovely, though the place felt a bit fancier than your usual pub.

Gluten-free options are properly labelled here, which makes such a difference. Had the apple pie again&mdash;still as good as the first time I tried it.

The veggie samosas were unreal, honestly the best I&#39;ve had in ages. Butter chicken ran a bit sweet for my taste but still hit the spot.

Tried the vegan stuff here last week. Mushroom risotto was decent, pizza was alright too. The caramel tart with pecan ice cream was the best part, not gonna lie. Live piano music was nice but maybe a bit loud for my liking. Prices are fair for what you get. Would go back if I&#39;m in the area again.

The chicken fajitas were proper good, and the guacamole tasted fresh. Lovely family-run spot, they looked after our dietary needs no bother. Halal options were a nice touch too.

The tasting menu here is seriously good. Each plate came out looking like art, but the flavours actually matched the looks. Wine pairings were on point too. Service was there when you needed them, not hovering over your shoulder the whole time. Bit pricey for a Tuesday night, but I&#39;d say it&#39;s worth it for a proper feed.

Lovely spot for a quiet pint. The old building has so much character, really enjoyed just sitting by the bar taking it all in. Staff were friendly too.

Lovely spot, though we queued a bit. Staff were sound and the food was decent. Nice buzz inside, just wish it wasn&#39;t so packed.
