Gallery Cafe

Reviewed By Rita M M

Any time we travel anywhere within 20k of the Gallery, we make time for a visit, as the food is TOP NOTCH. Creative dishes are made with local fresh good quality ingredients and served by friendly and engaging staff. PS, the coffee served (excellent barista) is from the wonderful Burren Roastery and if you can’t do lunch/dinner, just try the amazing scones or cakes, some GF. You will dine in a comfortable setting, surrounded by local art (beware that like any busy popular cafe, it gets busy). Their awareness of Coeliac Disease is impressive and this is also evident in their catered food. Rather than cooking for a recent family celebration in the Burren and after a chat with Kate, we sourced all our food with the Gallery with varying choices/allergies catered for. Really generous portions of beautiful food served in their big original cooking pots, (which we were able to return on our return journey) with little waste packaging. Well done Team Gallery and can’t wait to return.

The Tide Full Inn

If you looking for real Italian pizza and lovely plate with Italian imported meat and cheese, this is the right place. Also enjoy of nice glass wine or bottle beer.

An early evening meal visit on a damp Sunday in October, a cosy little restaurant , rustic furniture, nice atmosphere, offering a limited menu. We had freshly baked pizza & mussels, both of which were really good, just enough room for one of their home made cakes. Overall we had a great experience.

Merriman Hotel

Reviewed By CanIstay

Went there for an informal lunch on a Saturday. Rather than have one main course I opted for the seafood chowder and seafood salad. The chowder is up there with my top 3 ever! Loads of fish including salmon, smoked haddock, prawns and mussels. Often a chowder can be two thirds veg but this was a meal on it's own! Accompanied by two breads - 10/10. The seafood salad blew me away, firstly for the value at just over €10. Big fleshy prawns, smoked salmon and crab - all generous portions, served with a lovely mixed salad and dressing with bread. Again 10/10 and if you have this as a starter, you will never fit in a main course. Highly recommended!Dear Canlstay,Thank you for taking the time to review our hotel. I am delighted that you enjoyed our food. Our Head Chef, Dariusz and his team work hard to ensure our food is of a high standard and value for money.Thank you again.RegardsDeclan O'Grady

Ishka Cafe

Reviewed By pmarcos

While driving back from the Cliffs of Moher to Galway, we stopped in Kinvara for a bite to eat. After walking the couple blocks of town to review options we decided Ishka looked right for us, and we certainly weren't disappointed. The service was very friendly. We had a slice of quiche and a breakfast salad which was interesting and flavorful. Since we were seated right near the table with all the sweets on it we decided that the carrot cake looked really good so we shared a slice of that. It WAS really good. :-)

Fox's

Reviewed By Jessica L

My husband had excellent bangers and mash (and mediocre wine, but the second glass of a different vintage was better). I had pasta with peas and scallops in a cream sauce. The peapods were so delightful I actually ate them (I never do at home, as they're always stringy and unpleasant)! I was a little put off by the scallops, though; maybe it's a cultural thing to serve them with their weird, orange "foot" still attached? They were slightly gritty. The service was spotty at first, but improved by the end.

Had the burger and the staff were very helpful when I asked for changes (no cheese, mayo instead of spicy sauce). The burger came out with cheese by accident and the staff had no problem bringing it back and changing it. The food itself was great - got main and dessert and everyone agreed it was top quality food. The presentation was lovely and the atmosphere in the restaurant area was great. Would recommend for a visit when in Kinvara.Thank you so much for this review. We really appreciate it.
