Our hotel was right across the street. This restaurant is pretty much a cottage with wonderfully sweet people serving amazingly gorgeous food! 3 weeks later and I still cannot stop thinking about their food. The service given to us was unforgettable. I ordered a garden salad and their crab claws. OMG. Pan fried crab claws with garlic and chili butter and a samphire cream sauce. OMG and their sourdough bread is amazing with this. Everyone else in my party loved their food. We all wanted dessert so we decided on a tasting platter and this was the highlight of the dinner. Everything was perfect. I can only hope I'm here again to come back for their food!

Wow! Talk about an authentic fish 'n chips. This one almost nails it!…read more The restaurant is super cozy and right on the water. It was fun and quaint and hearing the Celtic music in the background made this lunch spot all the more special. Since I knew I was going to be doing a lot of walking that day, I decided against an alcoholic beverage and got a Ginger Ale. It was tiny, kid sized! Honestly, not as good as I would have liked. It was quite heavy on the ginger, which perhaps is a good thing because that would have aided best with nausea or stomach issues. I never had any of those while in Ireland, which is telling about the food there. The fish 'n chips are great, wait a minute, so is the rest of the seafood here! To start, I got a seafood chowder, and sorry Boston, sorry San Francisco, sorry Seattle, your chowders do not match up to this one. It is hearty, full of fish in each bite. The broth is milky delicious, and it is a helping of one that would make any fisherman feel great mid shift. As for the fish 'n chips, how could I forget? Great fry, great chip (because the chowder was so heavy I could not eat them all), and the fish (it was Hake), is super flaky. Be mindful though as the fish has the bone-in so you will have to pick them out or you can accidentally choke on one, or swallow one painfully. From the ferry to the plate, this is one restaurant you are not going to want to miss if you plan a trip to the Aran Islands.

A mile or so (technically a couple of kilometers) from the Cliffs of Moher is the Stonecutters…read moreKitchen. A wonderfully picturesque bistro with spectacular views of the County Claire countryside along the Wild Atlantic Way. From the 100-year-old cottage that the restaurant is situated to the beautiful patio and deck around it, Stonecutters provides the ideal scenery if you're visiting the area when you want to enjoy some delicious cuisine. We started with a bottle of Sangiovese while I noshed on some homemade brown soda bread, which was divine with Irish butter. The seafood tagliatelle was delicious and creamy that I savored every bite between the mussels and prawns and squid. The banofee dessert was magical between the biscuit on the bottom topped with bananas and drizzled with caramel and topped with ice cream. Enjoying our meal amidst the glorious setting was equally as memorable, if not more. No pictures can do justice to just how breathtaking it is to enjoy a meal in such a beautiful setting. Stonecutters is an ideal choice to enjoy dinner that has endless amounts of scenery to enjoy a wonderful outdoor dining experience.

Upon entering, you are…read morestanding next to the guest log book in the main dining room with around half a dozen tables & there's a "children's" dining room to the left: 3 tables, a high chair and a few toys. The bright yellow house, turned restaurant is easy to spot on the way to/from the Cliffs of Moher. You pull in to a small playground and a friendly dog roaming the grounds. This place is unusually kid-friendly, while not being child-centric, particularly given the size. By that, I mean, on entering the public toilet area, there is a nifty baby changing station - WITH supplies. Anyone who's had a child can relate this to a restroom having toilet paper! I found it to have very thoughtful touches like that, the special room & playground equipment - I also heard staff tell a patron that the kids get a toy to keep with their meal. I didn't view the kids menu, tho I heard a parent talking about some options with her child, including fish & every child's favorite fun food "spaghetti"! Adults were not forgotten- there were candles on the table and nicely plated meals and home-style options, with a lovely selection of wine and beet to choose from. The service was friendly and helpful- food was well seasoned and properly cooked: fingerling potatoes were crisp outside and tender inside. I wish we'd skipped attempting the cafe at the cliffs all together & just started here!!

The chowder and zero flavor, but was packed with fresh fish. The fish and chips were awesome, fresh as usual in Ireland, but very light and flaky, a top 3 for us. They were able to get us in and out, but we had to ask 3 times for water, and it was unseasonably warm. The decor was combo Irish pub/ Nautical.

The atmosphere is extremely cozy, dimmer lighting with colorful lights strung around, mismatched pillows, and local art on the walls. The woman at the front was friendly and quite patient with us.
