Just popped in for a quick lunch. Staff lovely and quick to come and get our order. Lots of items on the menu so quite difficult to choose! Food great and quite a big portion for the price. Definitely worth a visit.

Recommend poached eggs and bacon with plenty of toast and hot coffee. Service with a smile. Very important to me is that breakfast is not greasy, lovely fresh ingredients. Couldn't recommend the Two Mile Inn better, will be back shortly when working in the area

We stopped by Finins after the Jameson Experience and it ranks in our top 3 meals in a an almost 2 week trip. The garlic butter muscles were a 10. I had the Seafood chowder, my boy had the best kids fish & chips on the island, and the wife had curry chicken. All outstanding. No one was disappointed and the service was beyond good. One woman ran the entire dining area and bar with little help. (They were short) and the service was still one of the best on our trip. If youâre looking for a place after the distillery tour, make a left out of the parking lot and itâs on your right 1/8 mile down the road.

This was literally our first meal in Ireland and it was not a mistake to choose this place. Located just a few doors down from the Jameson Distillery, we had our breakfast here before our scheduled tour. Hearty, fresh and the service was spectacular considering that it was continually busy.

Thanks so much to all the staff for a lovely evening, we rang quiet last minute to get a reservation and were accomadated with no problems, food was amazing, goats cheese pizza was so tasty, prob the best pizza we've had...and mixed grill kebab was cooked to perfection...my kids had eaten already so were just looking for dessert and the chocolate & banana Calzone did not disappoint, the staff were so friendly and went above and beyond with our kids even bringing them into the kitchen to see the wood burning oven which was a big hit with them, overall I can't recommend this amazing authentic, casual, family friendly Italian enough...Looking forward to our next visit...

Went to OâDonovans for a birthday dinner. The service was excellent and the food was fantastic! The only reason Iâm not giving this restaurant an excellent rating is I had the seafood chowder for a starter and though the portion size was generous there was not nice chunks of seafood that you would expect. The Monkfish was was excellent, nice large portion and was cooked like i have never had it (had like shoestring potatoes that were wrapped around it and toasted..excellent combination ). We met the owner who really takes pride in making sure service is good and the food is excellent. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Ate here at the Sage Restaurant sometime ago and was somewhat underwhelmed. Firstly I checked their dinner menu beforehand and saw a few things which I thought was delicious. When we got there, the items were off the menu and I was disappointed. There should have been a wild boar dish and that was no where to be seen. Then we were told that we had arrived a bit to early for the actual menu and that all that was on offer was the limited menu. If we had booked 1 hour later we would have been able to have the dish in question. We were never told that during a certain time of the evening a full menu was available. I had to chose something else, which was just a crappy excuse for a meal. Don't know what I had, however you can see from the pics....Didn't taste great at all. Probably won't be back in a hurry as well.

A lovely restaurant in the heart of Midleton town. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff. I went recently for lunch with a friend. It was very busy and would advise booking at busy times around lunchtime. There was a queue when we arrived at 12.30 and the restaurant was very busy, a bit noisy and crowded. So if possible try and go off peak times. Food however was delicious, very tasty and nicely presented. Good variety of food served, I had lovely fresh fish, and my friend had the shepherds pie. There was also a really good selection of delicious deserts. We both really enjoyed our lunch and will definitely return.

Absolutely incredible Thai red curry, hands down the nicest I have ever had! I heard the chef spent time in Thailand and it shows. I do not think I can ever get nicer Curry anywhere else, in Ireland anyway. Great service also and very clean. Will be back here many times again.

Had a group of 9 for lunch and chose this restaurant based on previous reviews. The food was simply wonderful, full of flavour with excellent presentation. We had a variety of dishes from the mains and desert menus, all were delicious. They also happily catered for some in our party who just wanted the veg and some side dishes. Staff were lovely, friendly and attentive. We're already looking forward to a return visit next time we are in Midleton.
