Super cool place! I think the vibe and ambiance makes up for the pretty average food. my steak was decent, and my mother got the burger which she thought was just ok. The bar area seems cool tho, and the decor inside is really interesting! Pretty average pub dishes on the cheaper side. Would reccomend honestly, might be a place more for drinks and apps tho.

Fish and Chips
Kristina N.

Everything about the Killarney screams Irish pub - from the decor, the vibe and the menu. We came in on a Saturday night post-snowboarding at Okemo after getting turned away at the Loft because they were at full capacity. The host quoted a really long wait time but we actually got seated an hour earlier than what was estimated - score! While we were waiting I got to try one of the alcoholic hot chocolates at the bar that warmed my soul. We got seated in a separate main dining area away from the bar. Our server was very friendly and efficient even on a super busy night like the one we came on. Once our food came we all agreed - best Irish pub food we've ever had! The chicken wings were super crispy as well as the fish and chips. I normally don't care for corned beef and cabbage, but it tasted better here than where ever I've had it in the past and the shepherd's pie filling was juicy with a lot of flavor. The perfect pours of Guinness and live music were the icing on top. Highly recommend this place if you're hanging around the Ludlow area!

Beef stew
Paul Francis M.

It's been a hot minute since I've been here but treating myself to a birthday meal after two long days of skiing powder here at Okemo. My last meal I had the pot roast, went with the beef stew today and was filling! Wasn't a fan of the mushrooms but they are healthy so I dealt with them. Was going to take a carrot cake home for later but they were out so going with the cheesecake.

Very good wings and Sheppards pie. Pots of gold appetizers were good too. Fries were solid. Guinness was good. Service a tad on the slow side but the restaurant is cozy and we had a good time Highly recommend the competition sauce for the wings

Guinness stew
Lynn A.

A group of five, sat almost instantly at 5:30. The place filled in with a mix of locals and apres skiers. Our waitress got us drinks right away, and put in an app order while we checked out the vast menu. The food arrived and all of us wondered how we would get through our ample portions. Ha, no problems because it was all delicious! So hearty and satisfying! Musician arrived in small groups and then we had live music in front of a fireplace. If I had any complaints it would be the noice but that's more a reflection of my age than the restaurant.

Chicken pot pie
Dan S.

I don't ask for a lot in my Irish pubs. But over the years, this place has worked its way into my heart. And a recent visit showed why it remains one of the top places to stop in town or apres ski. I came by on a Wednesday night and the bar area was humming. I sat at the bar and got a fantastic Black and Tan with both Guinness and Smithwicks. Proper start. And really who wants a fancy IPA on a cold winter night. Give me some stout and an ale. I then went for the chicken pot pie. I don't know if I was just hungry or I haven't been eating out as much but I could not stop eating this dish! The pastry was perfect and the filling a great consistency without being too soggy. The bartender was efficient and the kitchen effective. Plus I got to watch the winter Olympics. Watching curling seemed appropriate. Here's a toast to Killarney! Keeps getting better with age!

Shepards pie
Jordan K.

Being from the south, we have learned to order food from the region we visit. So when visiting The Killarney we knew how to order. So we ordered the pot roast and Shepards pie. It was so good. We added a little Tabasco sauc(from our area) and it elevates it even more. The service was great. Our waitress was fantastic. The ambiance was very Irish pub. We are so glad we ate there.

chicken sandwich
Hailey S.

food and vibe was perfect for an after ski burger/chicken sandwich. gluten free buns available! fries were not gf but mashed potatoes rocked. great vibe.

There's a reason why this place has 4 1/2 stars after 180+ reviews, they can do no wrong…read more My grandfather brought my cousin and me here one day after a ski trip to Okemo and always had it in the back of my mind to come back here. Stopped in this weekend after skiing some fresh snow at Magic Mountain as it right along the way home. Already knew I was going to be eating some delicious food but didn't want to double dip and order the same thing. Well, I ordered the potato wedges which my cousin ordered last time which came out hot! Such a tasty bite as I remember them to be. After I had gotten through 1/2 of them I decided to order the Steak Pie which by the looks of all the other yelpers was going to be a great choice. No more than five minutes later as I was wrapping up my appetizer it was sitting in front of me. Dug into the vegetables first and they stood out as the first thing I should take a bite of, and they were on point. Nice buttery flavor and cooked just right. The beef was falling apart as I was sticking my for into it. So good! Wish there was more!! Potatoes were equally delicious as I used them to try and soak up all of the gravy, which I couldn't get enough of. So much flavor! The pastry puff I could have done without, give me some butter to slap on it and now we are talking. Ordered the Sticky Toffee Pudding by recommendation of my server and was very happy with her pick. So. Damn. Good! Meal was $33 with a water, cannot beat the price for what you are putting in your body. During all of this they had the rugby game on between France and Scotland. Wish rugby was televised more here in the US, more enjoyable to watch than the NFL. Yelp would like me to talk about the ambiance so here it is. Place has lots of cultural items all around. Always something to look at and maybe educate yourself on. All in all if you are a skier and need a place to stop on the way home to fuel you up this is the place to come to. Maybe the same mindset if you are a hiker in the warmer months.

Small place with good service. Very Scottish with interesting decor. The chicken salad with corn I…read moregot on my garden salad was tasty and definitely interesting. Hubby reported his roast beef sandwich was great although the roast beef looked overcooked to me. What was dubious, however, were the French fries. They had a sort of mealy texture and a very odd taste--I thought they used coconut oil to fry but hubby thinks they coated them with baking soda, then fried. Either way I wasn't a fan.

Wow. This place really shone in every facet of food and drink service. Perhaps one of the best…read morelunches we have had in a decade. A dear friend just bought a condo near Newfound Lake and needed to attend the HOA meeting, so we decided to join with them afterwards and they searched the food offerings and came up with Kathleen's Irish Pub. Arriving at the place we noticed a sizable parking area although I am sure it's on overflow at St. Patty's Day. For a first timer, the premises used to be a hardware store so there are several doors and although the one that seems to be the main door, is not. The entrance is towards the front and there is a ramp to the main door Entering the Pub, there is an ample bar area and the food area is towards the left, facing Main Street. We were warmly greeted by a wonderful hostess whose demeanor and customer care was the best I've seen in a long time. We began the afternoon festivities with, of course, Guinness, certainly slow poured, which is good for you. My other half had their Harviestoun Old Engine Oil, creamy and tasty. The next course we had was their Giant Pretzel. Really giant. Baby Huey giant. It served as the appetizer for four of us. We got it with both, homemade beer cheese dipping sauce and the Irish Whiskey Dipping sauce. Both sauces are delicious, really so. Then they brought out the main courses; I had their delicious fish and chips. Perhaps one of the best, tastiest, crispy pieces of fish I've ever had. My spouse ordered the Galway Girl, a true half pound prime Black Angus burger topped by Swiss cheese and fried cheddar curds, poblano dressing and chips. The mix of the fried curds and meat and sauce was amazingly tasty. Another friend had the Boxty, basically a potato pancake filled with a delicious chicken stew. The quality of the food was amazing. Really so. But that wasn't enough, we ordered both, their Bread Pudding, and their Sticky Toffee Pudding. The Bread Pudding was amazing, but the Sticky Pudding was unequaled. I am glad we shared the dessert among four people... At the end of the lunch, the owner came in and engaged us in conversation. Affable, full of energy, friendly, and she knows the path of excellence where she's taking the place. We learned a second pub is planned for Franklin. If it is anywhere near the quality of Kathleen's, Franklin will have one superb eatery. Absolutely recommended.

We've been to Kathleen's a number of times over the last couple of years, including this evening…read more There were a couple of occasions that, similar to other reviews, where things did not go well. But overall and current experience has been excellent. There is a mix of authentic Irish dishes and some Irish-ish fare. The Shepherds Pie and Fish and Chips are consistently excellent. Bangers and Mash is also,very good. Salads are fresh and appetizers good, though most are on the heavy side. Good selection, of beer and a number of memorable irish whiskies are available. Service is usually very good, especially when the owners are present. Everyone is friendly. We'll be back again. Very soon.
