Located on the ground floor of the McSweeney Arms Hotel, this isn't a bad place for a late…read moreafternoon lunch. Top notch food, served in an upscale environment. It's billed as a sports bar and seems to focus on a golf theme, but they have full table service and a righteous menu. The place is decked out in lots of dark colored wood trim, and they have beer and a full bar of course. It's definitely on the upper end of what I would consider a sports bar. The food was PERFECT, the service was ok, but could have been a touch better. Nothing huge to complain about though. They just didn't check in on us often enough. Had to ask for more drinks, the bill, etc. No big deal. The food quality and quantity was perfect. The Penne Chicken Pasta (€16.50) included sundried tomatoes, mozzarella, in a creamy white wine sauce with just enough basil to make it tasty, but not overpowering with basil (sorry, I feel that strongly about basil). The Summer Chicken Salad (€14.50) was also top notch, and very filling. It included decent amounts of seasoned, grilled chicken strips, served on top of mixed greens with a tasty mango salsa, pumpkin seeds, a few sliced cherry tomatoes, a few radish slices, and topped with grana padano (don't feel bad - I had to look that up too - it's pretty much parmesan cheese). The place seems to be frequented by locals instead of tourists. I was told that it's a good place for a decent steak or burger as well. Put this place on your list if you are planning on visiting Killarney anytime soon folks!

My sister held her birthday party here last year and the staff went above and beyond.

We ended up at his pub and decided to drink our dinner. The bartender Amanda was PERFECT, not in your face friendly, but just nice and smart. The pub was packed and she was the one and only bartender and I never waited more than a minute for my next beer. I honestly didn't know how she got around to everyone. There was some amazing live traditional Irish music playing. Ended up meeting some very cool locals and some of the musicians. Everyone was unbelievably amazing. I honestly couldn't believe it. Of all the pubs we vistied during our visit this one was our favorite, the best tasting Guinness, best music (by far), and best service. I would visit Ireland again just to spend another evening in this pub.

We popped in after dinner and bellied up to the bar only to be passed over multiple times by the bartenders. They clearly saw us, even made eye contact at times, but just kept moving, taking orders of folks who walked up to the bar well after we had sat down. It was the strangest experience of bar service we had experienced in Killarney. Once the bartender actually acknowledged us, she was friendly. We got our drinks and moved to the front room where they had live music. We finished our drinks, enjoyed the music and called it a night after one pint. The space has all the character of an old Irish pub and we had high hopes for Courtney's, but sadly it was the one negative experience on our trip. Overall, disappointed. Enjoyed the pint and the space is cool, but we wouldn't recommend as a "must do" on a trip to Killarney.
