Stopped here for a lovely dinner while visiting Sneem and were very happy with our choice. Everyone at our table truly enjoyed their food and drinks. Most of the items seemed to be locally sourced and mentioned such on the menu. There is plenty to choose from veggie to meat to fish.
The staff were incredibly friendly and answered all of our touristy questions about the area and provided recommendations. Really nice meal and highly recommend.

Sneem Hotel Restaurant

Reviewed By Sara W

Great food, excellent service, and the view was phenomenal! A truly wonderful dining experience. I enjoyed a spinach and ricotta tortellini with mash and veggies and a beautiful dessert plate. The starter was a vegetable soup that was full of flavor.

We stayed in Sneem for the first time last weekend, just for 2 nights, but will definitely be back. we ate in O'Sheas pub on 3 occasions, what fabulous food, the fisherman's pie was amazing, my husband is still talking about the lamb burger!!! Just 1 dish didn't live up to expectations a strange battered chicken fillet burger, it was never going to be good!!! Lovely cosy place with really friendly staff. Well worth a visit.

The Blue Bull

Reviewed By John S

Just unpacked from a long overnite flight from the US - everyone is dog tired. I had been to the Bull some years ago and talked the group into giving it a go for dinner. Told them it was decent pub grub - well after a couple of pints at the bar - we get a table and order our dinner. Pub grub indeed! I had the duck and it was great! Others had the salmon and said it was terrific. So much for pub grub - this is a nice menu. As with most places in Ireland, the staff was great, the food was delicious. Give it a go.

Reviewed By Auscoach - Brisbane, Queensland, Australia

Tried lamb pie and Cornish pastry. Came with light salad but the pastry and the pie were tasteless full of potato and little else. Sham really as it was a quaint little cafe. And the price was steep for average food. Brewed coffee was ok.

I'm sure there are better places in Sneem, because the coffee was weak and flavourless and service uncharming.

Gossip

Reviewed By Donna S - Agawam, Massachusetts

Driving the Ring of Kerry brought us to this delightful restaurant.
Gossip should be in your list to visit!
This is not traditional Irish fare.
We enjoyed the falafel pita with dipping sauces and a side salad and the open brown bread smoked salmon Sandwich.
Both delicious!

Have had many meals at Barbara O'Connor's Village Kitchen and never been served a bad meal. My favorite is the full Irish breakfast and The Village Kitchen does it proper. Highly recommend breakfast and/or lunch - you can not go wrong.

The Hungry Knight

Reviewed By tomas4321 - Dublin, Ireland

sneem is a lovely location, limited menus in most places but o sheas has a lovely ambience as has rineys bar. but alas, theres always something to let it down and thats the hungry knight takeaway. dirty greasy frying equipment, reheated fish, black in colour and taste horrible chips etc etc. this place deserves a visit, but only from a health inspector. finally, who allows the bearded man with the ram to sit and rake off tourists. younwill recognise the ram, it has horns and is cleaner than its owner. cmon sneem sort these things out and best of luck in the future
