Celebratory local pub in Oranmore. We had booked our hotel in Oranmore for a night between visiting…read morecliffs of Moher and heading to Dublin next morning. The restaurant in the hotel looked very boring so we decided to check out Porterhouse. When we arrived there it was FULL with locals. As we had a toddler , so they seated us in a private dining area outside the bar to comply with the regulation that kids aren't allowed in bars after 9 pm. Our server was very friendly. The staff was really good! He took our orders, got us to try a few beers and whiskeys before we finalized our orders to ensure that we really enjoy what we order. At this point we were just blown away by the hospitality despite being extremely crowded. We ordered two pints of beer, a shot of whiskey, fish and chips and a vegetarian curry dish. Everything tasted fantastic. The place itself was huge and the ambiance was of the traditional Irish pub. Brick walls, good music, fantastic pours, great food and warm smiles all around.

Best place in the area! We enjoyed the food and the staff was friendly. The atmosphere was great!read more

Lovely glass terrace with views of castle. Interesting menu…read more Decent chips. Chips 10/10 (recommend twice cooked). The fish was a bit soggy in the middle and could have done with a few more minutes/ hotter oil. Prawns were okay -- the three sauces sounded amazing but underwhelming. Had hoped for flavour kick -- prawns were both over cooked (about to become rubbery & undercooked -- shell not crispy. I think the grill may not have been hot enough ? But tasty and enjoyed the fresh seafood quality Other tables ordered the wings & mussels-- looked yummy. Portions ample! Arrived to weird 5-10 min wait (despite reservation) between bar and terrace areas. Hostess eventually arrived. Waitress rushed the order (no drinks menu provided), seemed surprised to be asked for a recommendation. At end was awhile before could flag someone down to pay.

Walk around to the side of the building to enter*** This place was unique, decorated on every surface. Netting, shells, fishing floats all over the ceiling. Antiques all around, there was a trunk for a table in the area we sat at, then they opened a curtain to another room for overflow. We sat at a large table for our group that ventured over for the night. Great ambiance, I can't speak to the service because I didn't go up to the bar to order. We loved the live music and the experience we had with our friends that night.

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.

I wouldn't recommend the oysters as they didn't have much flavor and were small/flat. The wings looked burnt but they actually turned out to be pretty good. The garlic bread and chowder were also delicious. If you're needing a place to kill time or pop in for dinner this place works great.
