Our kind of place! The decor, the ambiance, the service, and the food were perfect. Our server, the owner, was very attentive without being hovering. The food was very tasty. And did I mention the decor, we loved it! Truly lovely! On Main Street in Ballybunion down the street from and on the same side of the street as Kilcooly's. We will be back! :)Thank you Steven, I am very glad you enjoy the Tea Rooms. Hope to see you back. All the best to you. Regards, Geraldine.

Kilcooly's Country House

Reviewed By BCM1225

Ate there with my son a few weeks ago during a golf trip to the "Emerald Isle" except for the fairways of Ballybunion!As I said in the title, 5 items were very good and one was average at best. We both ordered a bowl of soup which was very good and ended with Sticky Toffee Pudding which was also very good. My son enjoyed his entrée of lamb shank and my chicken fettuccine alfredo was overcook and bland.I would have given a VG-, but they don't offer that.

Not much is better on a cold rainy day than a warm friendly restaurant with great food and that is what we found here. We had a wonderful lunch. The waitress was very friendly and conversive. A shining star here was the brown bread - the best ever! We will be back!

Bernie's Bar in Cliff House Hoel

Reviewed By livet0travel123

We ate at the Cliff House Restaurant twice in one week as we were vacationing in Ballybunion. The food was amazing but what also brought us back for the second night was the waitress, Olya? (spelling) She was very friendly and efficient and even gave us a hug goodbye when she found out our vacation was ending and we were returning to Canada. I would highly recommend the Cliff House restaurant for all ages!

After our husbands had the golf experience of a lifetime playing 18 holes on the Ballybunion course with the help of Johnny Joy their incredible caddy, we enjoyed a lovely lunch in the clubhouse. Friendly attentive staff, delicious food and an incredible view of the 18th hole all added to this wonderful experience. Thank you Ballybunion for making 2 Canadian golfers enjoy the game of their life. Your golf club covers and flags will be proudly displayed in their golf bags for many years to come.

Great meals! A fair portion of delicious lamb rump, mash potatoes, and veggie purée for me, baked crab pasta for my wife. The seasonal veggies (carrots, parsnips, and onion) were a perfectly roasted al dente. Then we split a to-die-for “chocolate nemesis” cake with vanilla ice cream. Service was attentive and efficient. When back to Ballybunion this will be a must-do for us again.

Had the corriander and carrott soup. Very tasty. Other members of the party had seafood chowder. Which they also enjoyed. Monkfish was on the menu. But having ordered it my wife was told the chef had no monkfish. So had hake for the stir fry. She found the hake bland. The duo of fish was very nice but the portion size was small. Cheese cake for desert was delicious. Nice size portion with plenty of maltesers and a portion of ice cream. The base of the cheese cake was solid. Be careful of the white sauce with the duo of fish. Not sure if it is gluten free.

My husband and I ate lunch here on our first day in Ballybunion. Our sandwiches were really tasty and the price was reasonable. We enjoyed chatting with our lovely waitress too! We really weren’t sure where to eat, and we are glad we chose this restaurant.
