The Ivy Cottage is a lovely setting for lunch or dinner. It has indoor and outside seating…read moreavailable. The menu is streamlined, but everything I've had so far has been fresh and delicious. It's popular and oftentimes there is a line to get a table. The staff does their best to seat guests as soon as possible. Note the closing time of 8pm is firm, so be sure to arrive before that. Staff is kind but due to the busyness of the restaurant, service can be scattered or slow, so remember, you're on vacation. Wine and beer available. Parking can be difficult in the area. Allow time to find parking, if you're driving.

Could I rank this lower than one star?? I would. For those of you that won't read a long review…read more.. here's the short story: service sucked, they gaslighted me when they got my order wrong, wildly inefficient in ordering made you pay BEFORE the meal and then also kicked us out after we told them their signage for their specials was wrong. Avoid, leave, run... don't go. So many better places to go, I had a large group and none of us will ever go back. First of all... sat down to order which took 20m. They got our drink order, then came back and took our food order, THEN came back to make us pay for our food individually which meant she had to get our food order AGAIN! Took 20m to just get our order. Then, they had 3 specials on the menu... none of which they had available. One special hand out of a burger they don't make, a hot wings challenge they don't do anymore but have signs for and a sign out front advertising a burger they don't have available. I ordered a chicken sandwich and it came out fried. Which was not on the menu. Then they told me the chef made it right and that everyone loves it fried so I should just eat it. When I asked for something different she said they would charge me for it. Another friend had her burger and it made her stomach upset for 3hrs afterwards. We leave, make a comment about the sign outside that said they don't have the specials they are advertising and they said they just don't have it "today". Which means you still don't freaking have it!?! So take the sign down it's false advertising. Then the server just said "it's fine. Bye." And closed the door in my wife's face. Soooooo... never going back. You shouldn't either. If I could give it negative stars I would.

The Boat Inn was a welcome haven on a long road trip across Ireland. Coming from Dublin, on our…read moreway through Connemara, we were fading fast, intimidated by the speed and size of small country roads and realizing we needed to eat before going to our Airbnb for the night. A drive through the tiny, quaint main street of Oughterard told us we were in the right spot. We found street parking and after perusing the prices of a few places, decided the the restaurant of Boat Inn was affordable and welcoming. The dining room was mostly locals (a good sign) and we ordered the fish and chips plate. It had a great presentation and came with delicious, not overly oily fish, chips, mushy peas (well seasoned) and two types of salad-a crunchy, creamy Cole slaw, and a spinach salad. Very filling, and probably the best fish and chips we tried on our 2 week tour of Ireland and Scotland. The severs were also very friendly and on the attentive side, and even helped us out with the tricky pronunciation of the small town. We went on our way, bellies full and countenance brightened, ready for the rest of the drive. If I'm through that area again, I won't hesitate to stop for another meal or perhaps even stay at the Inn.

After traveling to Ireland and then renting a car to drive to Ennis, we were beyond exhausted. I'm…read morepretty sure I struggled to even read yelp reviews in order to help us finally find some food to eat. So we just decided to walk into town where we stumbled upon this amazing place. The decor and warmth of the restaurant was top notch. The gentleman who greeted us and served us was so helpful. We were so jet lagged I'm sure he had a hard time understanding our mumbles. The menu was easy to read and he was able to pair beers and ciders to us perfectly. The food was amazing. The portions was so big. My wife and split the chicken curry, I had a side of chowder and she had a side salad. We still had food left over because there was so much. My son and the fish and chips and it was devoured. My youngest had the kids fried chicken and said it was the best chicken she's ever had. There wasn't a single complaint about this place. So if you stumble into Ennis lost, hungry, and needing a relaxing place to eat, try this place.
