Recently visited the Amethyst restaurant for a family celebration. We received a great welcome from the manager. The staff upstairs were engaging to a point, but on occasion we were left with no service at all. It was hard to get their attention. The food is average. You can order anything from a burger and chips to duck. The food needs some attention. The portion sizes are just too big. They leave little room for the main course or dessert. The prawns are rather disappointing. Expected something special as Achill prides itself on its seafood. The steak was on the tough side rather than been juicy. Fish and chips, and curry went down well with the rest of the party. Food is reasonably priced. I will go back but will make sure I only order the main course. It was definitely food overload. With a fine bit of tuning, this could be a great spot to visit.

In the heart of Keel village on Achill Island and opposite the fabulous Keel Beach you will find The Bayside Bistro. Spotlessly clean,efficient staff and good quality food makes this bistro a great stopping place to refresh prior to or after exploring all that Achill has to offer.

Pleasant place on Achill, very popular. We called in for tea and cake, seating is a little squashed and avoid the booth at the back as heating pipe runs behind seats making it very warm. Tea snd scones were very good, although pot a little clunky. Generous portions.

We stayed in the Strand after looking at various hotel reviews o the Island. Their website must have another hotel somewhere else as the one we booked was a pitiful example. The building requires a health and safety review, the top landing was like a springboard, the front rooms we got where appalling, on suite was a converted wardrobe area. You had to enter it sideways. The room was freezing, I requested heating but it was ignored. Every other hotel on the island that we passed had full carparks. In the three days we stayed at the Strand, there were three cars, one being ours. The food was terrible, frozen fish and frozen mixed vegetables. The second night we ate at another hotel, despite having paid for our meals at the Strand. Another Interesting fact was, the chef later turned into the barman and next morning he was up a ladder repairing guttering.I blame the tourist Board for not issuing a health warning on these premise.
