When we arrived for our booking, we were told we'd be separated from each other, with tables across the restaurant, this was not acceptable! While we were being let down by the staff, an empty table of 4, right next to one of the tables, we were allocated to, was filled by customers that just entered, it would have made sense to put us at that table, to be together, as we booked. Today, the restaurant took money from my friends credit card, because we didn't stay, I will never go back there!!

The menu is locally sourced- the beef, chicken and fish- as well as the vegetables. The meal was perfectly prepared, and you feel the pride of the owners. Our favorite dishes were the hake & mussels, sirloin (a perfect medium-rare), and the seafood chowder was well-seasoned with generous portions of fish. To top it off, the apple crumble and crème anglaise were a delight! Prices are reasonable, at about 20€ per plate. We recommend!

Each dinner had plentiful sides of potatoes, carrots, green beans, parsnips and red cabbage. Everything was fresh, abundant and delicious. The service was very good.

We very highly recommend Murphy's Restaurant to everyone coming to the Beara Peninsula.

The Lamb roast and stuffing was better then average. Very generous portions of food. Service was very good, friendly and welcoming.

Our drinks were tasty and the wine list was truly extensive. Overall, a must go to!

You walk in and you feel right at home. You can tell that everything is made from scratch and most likely DOES come from a farm nearby. Hubs and I started with an incredibly creamy and delicious seafood chowder- studded with oodles of fresh fish, and then moved onto a Scallop Salad with bacon and other tasty morsels. So divine. Though we're not big dessert people, the Irish seem to love it and there is a huge table of desserts right in the front of the restaurant that beckons you. We caved and ordered the creamiest, most decadent and lovely lemon pie tart that I have ever had. I am pretty sure they must add cream to the filling just for fun. I mean, it's Ireland and they add cream to everything. So. good. Go here. Eat and be happy. Have dessert. You won't be sorry.
