Am a regular here either for lunch (I LOVE the Ham Hock sandwich) or for evening Tapas. Was there recently for Tapas - was delicious! Food was gorgeous, and so reasonable when bill divided up divided up between us. Looking forward to going back again.

We stumbled across Lyons when we stopped for lunch on Saturday. It is located above an old department store so you could easily miss it. We arrived around 1 and the place was packed, we were lucky to get a seat. It is mainly self service and the queue system is a bit confused, but we got there. We had the halloumi salad, pulled pork bap and ham and cheese toasted sandwich, with tea and coffee, and all were delicious, really tasty and well presented. This place has plenty of character, and given the crowds looks to be a popular stop in Sligo. It is also good value for money.

This tiny pub was a pleasant surprise when I visited. It is clean and quaint. The bartenders are friendly and drinks reasonable. There is a covered patio in back and candles and soft lighting are inside at night. Mondays are Open Mic night...not sure of other âeventsâ.

We arrived shortly before closing hoping for dinner. 1 of the 2 specials was finished, we both had a stuffed pork typed of meal and it was unusual but tasted very good. Beer was expensive at 5 Euro for a little 330ml can. Service was efficient and friendly, seating is basic also a bit crowded and tight.

We stumbled onto this place when staying in the Yeats Country Hotel around the corner and couldnât believe our luck. The restaurant is really nicely decorated with the driftwood theme throughout but the food was just amazing! I got the beef brisket sliders to start which were just so tasty, and a big portion too, but I couldnât stop eating them. Then I had the prawn & monkfish gratin for mains, along with a cheeky charcoal margarita which was a surprise to the eyes but a treat to my mouth! My husband had the chicken wings to start and the burger for mains & loved every mouthful. He was so impressed with the chicken wings that he wouldnât get them anywhere else for the rest of the trip because he said theyâd be a disappointment after the Driftwood ones. I couldnât recommend this place highly enough, the place was so cosy and relaxing, the staff were so nice and friendly, and the food really was top notch. The prices might be slightly higher than other restaurants in Rosses Point but the food really is on another level so well worth it. We were saying if it was a restaurant in Dublin they would be charging twice the price and theyâd still be full every night!Definitely treat yourselves to a meal here if youâre in Rosses Point.

I'm guessing that this place is quite busy during summertime. It has that feeling of being a place were summer guests ends up. Normal pub feeling to the place and food is good, but not excellent. Surprised about the low amount of seafood they had on the menu. I'd expected more.

My partner and I visited the Cottage Cafe last week. We both had great meals as usual. My falafel plate was one of the specials and it was fabulous. They are so creative like food, both in their menu and presentation. And with a killer view of the strand at Rosses Point, what a great place to visit often

Next door to the Strandhill Hotel & Suites and recommended by the reception, good choice and very busy so book ahead in high season. we waited for 30 minutes in their cosy excellent bar before being seated. The food was excellent especially the spicy deep fried chicken wings a tip from a guy whilst in the bar.

I've had occassion to eat in the Strand a few times over the last month or so, lunch, pizza and takeaway pizza. It's a lovely cosy pub with blazing fire and lots of little nooks and crannies. The staff are lovely and friendly. Lunch was nice (we just had sandwiches/panini) Pizza the night before was also pretty good, but they got our order badly wrong and one of our party was waiting 20 minutes for her pizza. Rather than reduce the bill somewhat as a gesture of goodwill, they actually charged us extra for toppings we never received! The did eventually remove the offending items but it was a bit of a battle. The takeaway pizza we got a few weeks previously was 'ok' the base was nice but it was lacking in toppings and flavour we found. Also, they charge the same for the pizza whether you eat in or takeaway, so it leaves it pricey for a takeaway. Overall, I would say it's a lovely place to go for drinks, with friendly staff, food is pretty good, but the customer service with the pizza put me off a little bit

Extremely friendly and helpful staff, made our 2 golden retrievers welcome and supplied dog bowls and water after their swim in the sea. Excellent fish and chips, breakfasts until 12.30pm. This little gem is on the seafront and open from 9-6pm and licensed. Great desserts, homemade bread and homemade baked beans make this a great and reasonable place to eat. Outside seating if the weather is good. There can be a problem parking as the seafront is not long and spaces are at a premium but there are other car parks within a short walk and well worth the effort.
