Ashes was a go to restaurant/pub for us in Dingle. The food was very good with lots of great choices on the menu. It is not a Pub-food restaurant, but a very good restaurant in its own right...also a good pub. We liked it so much that, in spite of many other good restaurants in Dingle, we went back to Ashes for dinner a second time during our stay..

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Dingle and took the opportunity to visit Fenton's restaurant.The location of the restaurant is right in the centre of the town and very easy to find. I did book ahead and judging from what I saw the restaurant is very popular and tables at a premium.And having visited Fenton's I can fully understand why it is so popular.The welcome from the staff is extremely friendly and the atmosphere in the restaurant is very relaxed and calming.The food was absolutely outstanding and the best meal we ate on our recent trip across Cork and Kerry.I loved the way the chefs use great local produce and add their expertise to produce stunning meals.A memorable evening for my wife and I and one we certainly intend to repeat in the future.

We stopped here based on the recommendation of Maurice at the Quayside B&B. Best advice we have received.Starting off with a Dingle whiskey and a Dick Mack's Amber Ale (both locally sourced) started this wonderful experience. Apps and local chowder elevated the results even more. Our local seafood dinners were so fresh and amazing.This is a first class restaurant that we strongly recommend.

We chose this restaurant since it was one that specifically was listed as being kid friendly. Having a two year old with us made this imperative. We were definitely not disappointed. The restaurant is situated in a very narrow road in Dingle so parking might be a little bit of a problem but do not be discouraged because it is worth the trouble of finding a parking spot. Food was excellent as was the atmosphere which is very relaxed and laid back. We got plain pasta for our daughter which she devoured. Great chowder and fantastic mains. The waiter recommended me a craft beer to accompany my main which was to die for. Reasonably priced as well. Not to be missed if in Dingle but make sure you make a reservation in order to avoid disappointment.

We have been traveling in Ireland for a week now, and we continue to be pleasantly surprised and delighted by the wonderful dining experiences we have enjoyed. The Chart House was another great dining experience; one of the best! I had the pork belly and my wife had the chicken. We each had cauliflower and blue cheese soup. We both really enjoyed our dishes. They have a terrific selection of wines and we were able to get our favourite Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc.The service excellent! The Chart House is very deserving of its high Trip Advisor rating.

We were hungry around 9:30 pm, and most places donât serve food that late. We were very happy to be able to order nosh. The 9â arugula (rocket), chicken, pesto pizza was not only appreciated, but it was DELICIOUS too! Perfect size for two people in need of a late-evening snack. The harbor-front location is nice, too.

As you do, you try to find a place for brunch on a Sunday in Gastro town Dingle.Was it not for the added complication its the Sunday after the main sports event in Dingle " The Marathon" . We circled around Dingle we found the Pantri. There was a bit of queue as the place is compact shall we say, but on arrival we got offered a table outside .. Now Sundays weather was not like the day before, it was Irish Mist. For those that don't know what that is its mist that falls down as very fine rain (only in Ireland) We were not deterred, under the umbrella outside we went , my sons concluded we will not die of a bit of rain and we will be okay. ( 10 & 12 ,hardy men)The food is gorgeous, I had the black pudding on sour dough and my wife had the eggs Benedict.. the lads were happy with a hot chocolate. We were impressed with the food and the taste, we will be back for sure before the next marathon . PS. Dress for the weather and the occasion , its was worth sitting under the umbrella in the mist.. Do visit the pantri cafe..

Local cuisine, influenced by the finesse of European cookery but rooted in Irish traditions, our take on food is based in the belief that everyone should be afforded the opportunity to experience foods grown, raised, caught, and foraged by their neighbour

After days of eating deep fried fish in pubs, it was a pleasure to have a high quality fresh monk fish dinner. Everything from the wine to the appetizer to the main dish to the dessert equaled or surpassed seafood restaurants in major cities. Recommend the early bird dinner for a cost effective meal

Everybody here is so nice. The place is super clean. The portion were massive - like 3 serving per plate for most people. Everything was tasty. The soups were spiced to perfection and the fish really good. I didnât realize all the fish is served fried, which isnât my favorite but it still was all really good and so fresh.
