We shopped until we dropped. The prices and the quality of the handwoven scarves and hats are unmatched with any other shops we visited all over south Ireland and even Dublin. I found Irish people to be so friendly and nice but this family is specially very nice and go above and beyond to leave a positive mark that brings smile to my face even thousands of miles away now that I am back home wearing their tasteful goods!

Since there are only six rooms situated on the west wing of an entire castle we pretty much had the run of the place. We never saw another guest. Julie and Sam are the sibling proprietors (also direct descendants of the original 17 century royal family that built the castle). Both were gracious and lovely. Since it was our anniversary we stayed up late listening to old jazz records in the castle library that resembled a hall at the Louvre. When we departed this morning we realized the only electronic device we picked up during our stay was a camera. Thank you Julie and Sam for a wonderful escape. We will never forget it.

Not too noisy in here even with as many people, but the acoustics seem okay. I can see this becoming a regular place while visiting. Kinda 80s-90s vibe for decor. Love it!

I had a delicious toasty with ham and some of the wonderful Irish cheese, which came with a nice little salad. The honey mustard dressing was really yummy. I had some delicious Lemon Drizzle cake with a dish of fresh whipped cream, and got a slice of apple cake to go after hearing a regular customer rave about it. Also delicious! Planning to stop by on our way out of town for some to-go treats. I read some reviews with complaints about price, but honestly I think the prices are reasonable for the quality and portions that are served.

Offering everything sweet from heavenly chocolate cake to Victoria sponge, this is the place to go if you've got a sweet tooth (like me!). Every table is decorated with different table cloths and cups and saucers but the overly girly decor may be off putting for males!!! This quaint tea room is the perfect place for a treat and a gossip with the girls. On the down side, Cupan Tae is a small bit more expensive than other places in Kenmare.

The sad thing about many tea-houses in Ireland is, you can get the more sophisticated stuff but there's a very definite move away from the Irishness of the experience. Whereas here in Cupán Tae, not only can you get a wide selection of fancy tea, you can also get a good pot of Irish tea (black, rough, needs boiling water to draw the flavour out properly) AND get a rasher sandwich. The service was lovely, really friendly and efficient. I wish it wasn't so far away from where I live...but if I'm in Kerry, I will certainly be making a detour to Kenmare for a cuppa and a sandwich.

Finally made it here this week after going by several times when it was closed and had a delicious rhubarb meringue and a pot of the house cream tea, which had a nice vanilla note as well as a bit of coffee flavour infused in it.

Nicely located at the top of a fairly mean hill climb so a good spot for cyclists when the weather is good as you really earn the tea and cake!

A latte, flat white, slice of lemon drizzle and a slice of apricot and almond cake €13.20. Yummy.

Your basic touristy rock shop, with rocks and minerals from all over the world. The typical North…read moreAfrican trilobites, polished stones of no intrinsic interest for anyone over the age of 8, geodes from Brazil, etc. Probably of the most interest to the visitor was a small display on the back center that consisted of minerals found in Ireland. If you're looking for that, this is a good stop. I was a little disappointed that they didn't have some of the local fossils, some of which were abundant in the paving stones at the Cliffs of Moher park. In fact, we stopped to buy those--but they are probably not of interest to the types of tourist that this shop is geared towards. I did find a dark chocolate whiskey candy bar here, which I enjoyed. They do have a little coffee shop with desserts and pastries...a bit incongruous with the concept of a rock and gem shop.

No previous experience necessary. Apply within.) and we decided to pop in for a sandwich. And I am so glad we did. This is a little bit of everything rolled into one. Part tea room, part sandwich bar, park general store. And al mishmashed in a variety of styles and decor. We ordered a couple of sandwiches and sat down near the door to wait. And were charmed. This is the type of place I would love to have near me. Everyone who entered was greeted by name and Vikki knew exactly what they wanted and needed. When an elderly lady didn't have enough change with her to pay, Vikki simply said "No problems, you can get me next time." Wow, that this still happens somewhere fills me with joy still! The sandwiches by the way were great as was the service.
