Booked supper here based on TA reviews. Quaint and busy. We ordered the chef's menu- they decide what is served-seafood/meat/veg. Our group split the options - we were able to get 2 options for each type- all pretty good. A la carte also available.

Haw a few beers here over a weekend and it's a busy spot. Lots of hen parties (and everything that goes with it!) and a staff keeping up with thirsty customers. Great service from Kenny and Aine looking after us with a warm welcome, friendly chats and fast with the pints. This is a popular music venue with live acts and very weekend. Expect a busy spot and get in early if you want a seat.

As regular visitors to Lahinch, my wife & I have eaten in most of the local restaurants.
We had actually tried to book a table in a different resturant (a few days in advance), but they let us down - so we ended up at VL restaurant instead.
Best 'mistake' ever :)
The restuarant is part of Vaughan Lodge hotel, & it is very comfortable & well decorated - not stuffy, but not too casual either. The staff were very friendly & the usual Clare humour was available on tap! There were set menus available for both 2 & 3 courses, as well as an extensive a la carte option. The wine list was impressive & we went for a bottle of Valpolicella which was excellent.
My wife started witht he Scallops & I had Langoustine - both amazing. For mains we had the lamb & the fillet of beef, & the meat was literally melt-in-the-mouth good!
In between courses various 'amuse bouche' delights were served - varying from a beetroot meringue stuffed with local goats cheese, to a squid ink cracker...incredible.
We had intended to include desserts, but we just weren't able!
I would definitely recommend VL resturant to anyone looking for superb food in a relaxed environment, & we will be back for sure.

Vaughns anchor inn - pleasant local pub with great lunch food. Both the crab and shrimp salad sandwiches were really good. Basically fresh seafood with no wasted filling or sauces. Weather was perfect to eat at the outside tables but the inside was cozy and appealing.

Reviewed By Eddy W - County Westmeath, Ireland
Pretentious, is the word that comes to mind when describing this café.
Every thing average, food, service price, and all a little undercooked for me, well that’s subjective. I was surprised at the unfriendly nature of some staff even bordering on aggressive. What a pity this Café is not flying the flag for the industry in such a prime tourist location.

We live in Lahinch and Randaddy’s is our go to restaurant. Between the 5 of us we are always happy (and I’m vegan so am particularly fussy!). I appreciate that everything is made for scratch - sauces, breads, dressings etc so not only is the quality high but the flavour. Over the years the menu has changed and grown and we have never been bored. Excited to see what’s coming next. We’ve had birthday parties there, I’ve had a girls night out. Always a reliable winner
