This is a lovely bar. The service is excellent and the food sublime. The menu is based on local ingredients. The seafood chowder is a particular favourite of my daughter and it’s more like a meal as it’s full of fish. My favourite is the chicken, pesto and sundried tomato sandwich on granary bread. They also have a nice wine list. This place is always full but the service is so good they will always accommodate youHi Sharon,Thank you so much for your excellent rating and very kind review. We are delighted you enjoyed your experience at Scannells and hope you join us for lunch again soon!

Book as busy, tip ask for a table with chairs as opposed to stools (some of our party found the stools very uncomfortable). Nice atmosphere here and waiter had a certain charm and sense of humour which added to our evening. Food was very good with the seafood and pasta the stars for us. Menu offers a few different choices to other similar places. Nice wines available with the Chianti at €25 very reasonable. Nice place give it ago.

I visited Mountain House, Ardfield today. From the first glance it looked like your avarage gastropub, but it was anything but! I heard before that food is nice in here but when my plate arrived, my expectations were exceeded.Not only it looked like it came straight from some posh restaurant kitchen, it tasted heavenly. Scallops were cooked to perfection, and prawns with mango salsa... I am struggling to find words to describe that perfection. I was planning my next visit before even finishing my meal. I wish I could rate my visit today more then 5 stars. Simply amazing

Recently visited the hotel (Celtic Ross in Rosscarbery) for lunch. Although I am not a great fan of carvery lunches, the food was good. Staff were very friendly and obliging.However, after selecting our lunches and finding a table, I went to the bar for drinks.This was a bit of a let down as I counted at least 6-8 staff members behind that bar ( possibly not all bar staff) but service was terrible. I waited at least 15 minutes to get served. Meanwhile my wife had handed back my meal to the kitchen to keep it hot and, when it was reserved, it had pretty much tried up. What a pity. That said though, it was father's day and the bistro was packed full so to some extent the poor service from the bar, while not acceptable, was somewhat understanding. We would be happy to revisit on a quieter time.

I have been down in West Cork for the last three days, and have eaten in this establishment ever since discovering this gem of an eatery.If you read through my previous reviews you can tell that pub fare is not my normal choice of cuisine, and if you think this place serves pub grub you are definitely mistaken.Every dish I have eaten here has been a journey for my taste buds, as the head chef David takes cuisine and flavours he has discovered on his travels, brings them home and incorporates them into the dishes served in his establishment. From the Mackerel Platter to the Holy Land Hummus, or the Gravlax to the Moroccan Lamb, the depths of spice and flavour, not to mention the aromas are out of this world. Being located on the coast of West Cork all the fish is fresh off the boat it is practically leaping straight from the sea and onto the plate.As these are authentic dishes everything is made from scratch be that the sauces, marinades or paté, so be on the watch out for small fish bones, cloves, or little bits of stalk. So far I have only seen a tiny mackerel bone, but at least you can tell it's no Sharwoods/Uncle Bens specials.Every day there is a variety of fresh made desserts as displayed on the desserts board, my favourites so far are either the Chocolate Brownies or the Apple Pie, but I have heard great things about the Cheescakes, maybe I will try those tonight before I go homeAll the staff are locals and are super friendly and attentive to the guests needs, should . the restaurant is small in size however, so make sure to book a table for dinner, however I don't think you will regret the choice, I certainly haven't!

Reviewed By RichW946

Had a good evening meal at the Glandore Inn after a long days travel - the pub was busy so luckily our B&B owner had booked us a table earlier that afternoon. Had a drink outside looking over Glandore bay, before being called to our table. Inside we were squeezed in a bit by the bar, but it was a was a happy, busy atmosphere and we were served by friendly and attentive staff. The menu choice was good and our choices (seafood and fish for starter and main) were very tasty. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening.

Reviewed By Chouskikou

We thoroughly enjoyed the excellent early bird menu at this long standing Rosscarbery eatery. While it previously had a reputation for being pricey, local competition has had an impact and our meal represented excellent value. The starters were chicken and bacon salad or prawn cocktail, both of which were delicious, while the main course choice was between hake or steak. Generous sides of new potatoes and vegetables were included. We all went for the fish which was delicious. Including tea or coffee, the early bird was €27.50. Slightly petty on Sean’s part was the fact that the ‘early bird’ selected tables had ‘shop’ soda bread while the full menu tables were set with homemade brown bread. All in all, it was a very pleasant experience which we would be happy to repeat. We asked what the dessert on the menu called Brexit comprised of and were told it was an Eton Mess. Very appropriate. I like that man's sense of humour.

We had a lovely meal here. All of the food was superb and the service was wonderful, friendly and helpful. They do not sell alcohol so you bring your own wine with you. They do not charge corkage either.
