Jacks Coastguard Restaurant is a landmark building overlooking Rossbeigh and Inch Peninsula in the seaside village of Cromane between Kilorglin & Glenbeigh on the Ring of Kerry route. Nestled against the Atlantic Ocean, enjoy panoramic sea and mountain views in one of Kerrys Top Restaurants recently named Best Seafood Restaurant in Ireland by well respected foodie Georgina Campbell as well as listings with Bridgestone & Michelin Guides. The Station Bar and Coastguard Restaurant successfully combine old world charm with modern elegance.Guests can linger over a drink in the bustling Station Bar or enjoy the soft tones of the piano through the restaurant by our resident pianist JP Murphy. Only the finest and freshest of seafood is used to create dishes that would rival the most discerning of palate. Signature dishes such a Cromane Mussels, Tiger Prawns or perfectly seared Scallops should not be missed. For the unwilling seafood diner, our succulent Fillet of Beef should suffice nicely.

Visited twice with business colleagues. Nice friendly staff, my colleagues very much enjoyed the seafood Mornay. Being a vegetarian I asked if I could have something other than the veg curry offered, which did not appeal to me, and they accommodated my request. We passed a very enjoyable evening.
It's a popular spot. The piano is on the whole pleasant and probably popular with visitors to Ireland.

The South Pole Inn is a must for Antarctic fans- the original owner Tom Crean made 3 expeditions to the South Pole- great history on the walls and the toasted sandwiches were plentiful and delicious- fresh hot soup also very good- and a lovely pint of Guinness - a great stop on the way to or from Dingle

A group of us went here for dinner last night and it was lovely. Nearly all of us (8 of 13) got the chicken hibernian - a breaded chicken breast served with a mushroom, pepper and onion sauce. It was delicious. I got it with chips and salad. Unlike most places that give you a few lettuce leaves topped with a slice of tomato and onion, the salad was lovely - some pasta, a bit of potato salad and some green salad. There was loads of food and it only cost €11.50. I thought that was great value. I had the baileys and chocolate chip cheesecake for dessert which was very nice too. Others had the apple crumble (tasty) and the lemon meringue pie (not so good). The coffee wasn't great but of everything across the meal to be poor its ok if its the coffee. Overall it was good food with good value.

We first stopped here for lunch about 20 years ago while touring Ireland (and the Ring of Kerry) with our young daughters and my mother. This time was in August 2017 with my wife and I only. The place seems to have changed little if any. Still a fine place to stop for a pub lunch, a beer or Irish coffee and in this case a bit of shopping for family back at home. Food and service were good. Parking plentiful. Gift shop well stocked. Indeed a good place for a break as approaching the Ring of Kerry from Killarney. View of the Mountains and peat bogs are equally good.
