As the title goes. Nice pub with a brilliant chatty and witty bartender. Didn’t try the food but the menu was good and what came out for others looked great.

I went as part of a large group outing, all the food was lovely and fresh and staff we happy to accommodate our little changes to the menu - I had the fish of the day which was Sea Trout, beautifully cooked, the veg was fresh and cooked to perfection too - not too much salt either ! Didint have a starter but they looked great, some of our party commented how tasty they were. For dessert I had the Portuguese custard tart with toffee sauce - which was soooo delish - yummy - a lovely evening was had by all. Only negative is the choice was a little limited for early bird and low ceilings make the atmosphere a little noisy.

We usually have lunch or dinner at Mary Barry's Bar & Restaurant in Kilmore, everytime we visit relatives in County Wexford, Ireland. During our recent 2 1/2 weeks vacation, September 2019, we visited twice this restaurant. It is located along R739, Road to Kilmore Quay, County Wexford. There are plenty of parking spaces on both side of the road. Their menu is quite diverse & interesting. The food is very good. They serve generous portions. Highly recommendable.

Reviewed By Yachtmaster007

Great place for hanging-out and relaxing over a leisurely coffee, breakfast, brunch or lunch.We enjoyed this place so much we had lunch on two consecutive days, dining outside on the pavement watching a laid-back world wander by. Nothing is done in a rush down in these parts and we appreciated the personal table service of the owner who made sure we were well fed and watered. All the burgers and fish cakes are divine, the home-made lemonades and cordials are very refreshing and the coffee was stupendous. We loved it.

Dined here during the week, our first time as we were visitors in Wexford. Well from the efficiency of their online table booking system, to the smiling ladies who greeted us, though extremely busy, to the service, the food and its presentation, there was not even one element of our evening to niggle about. Well done all, 100% across the board!! Highly recommend.

Myself and my family had a fabulous meal here in late July. The fishcake starter is to die for and the fillet beef medallions would melt in your mouth. Most of our group had seafood main courses. They were all of an exceptionally high quality. The Asian waitress was terrific. Nothing was any problem for her. She is a brilliant waitress. The restaurant is lucky to have her. Can't wait to return again in the near future for another great meal in the Silver Fox..
