Homestead Cottage

Modern Cuisine · ★ Michelin

€€€€

A charming 200-year-old cottage houses this rural restaurant that counts the Atlantic Ocean as its neighbour. The lovely terrace allows you to enjoy a spectacular sunset over drinks, before moving inside to the characterful interior with stone floors, cookery books and rustic wooden tables. Wonderful Irish produce – such as glistening wild John Dory or flavoursome Burren Shorthorn beef – is used in equally impressive dishes that are clean and modern, with no unnecessary frills.

Modern Cuisine

€€€€

In the rural heart of The Burren, with views out towards the Cliffs of Moher, you’ll find this well-frequented restaurant with a clean, modern interior. The menu offers an appealing choice of dishes crafted using top-notch produce, which is treated with care and skill by the kitchen team. A few ambitious, adventurous flavour combinations might appear too, like mango with salmon. The friendly service and simply furnished bedrooms complete a rather charming picture.

Gregans Castle Restaurant

Modern Cuisine

€€€€

An attractive country house nestled in The Burren, Gregan’s Castle is an enviable location for a restaurant. It’s a luxuriously appointed place, with open fires, cosy sitting rooms and a charming bar. The equally impressive dining room is the stage for a menu based on produce from their own gardens and the surrounding area, such as some of the finest lamb in Ireland. The quality ingredients are expertly cooked and showed off in well-balanced dishes. Ask for a seat by the window to make the most of the fabulous views.
