What our guests say

Read some reviews about us in

  • We have been going here for years, whenever we go to Connemara. It is such a welcoming friendly place, wonderful staff and the food has always been excellent. And the location and views are magical. A trip to Connemara wouldn’t be complete for us without a meal here.
  • Called in on a sunny Autumn Sunday afternoon for some food. We were immediately greeted by a pleasant young barman who immediately made us feel welcome & directed us to a nice window table overlooking the lovely rugged moorland settling into the golden brown autumnal vegetation. Without delay or rushed in any way our orders were taken & the proprietor's came to our table to say hello as indeed they did with all other tables, Our food consisted of seafood chowder, duck & a stir fry. We both certainly enjoyed the food & as I wasn't driving mine was washed down with a lovely creamy pint of Guinness. I look forward to a return visit.
  • Had a spectacular lunch today with my fiancé. We had the chicken fillet burger and the tuna melt off of the lunch menu, both very tasty. Thank you to the lovely young waitress who looked after us at all times and provided us with directions to some beautiful local beaches. Lovely selection of items also available in the craft shop. We can’t wait to return on our next visit to Ireland.
  • We love Connemara and make our annual trip at Christmas - we stopped at Glynsk House on New Years Eve and had a wonderful lunch, soup with lovely warm scones, the Chowder was fabulous and the Garlic Mushrooms were lovely. The restaurant was so homely. Its got wonderful panoramic views. The staff were lovely and helpful. We will visit again soon. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality
  • Family friendly, excellent food, country treat. We have visited this restaurant 3 times in the past year and have never been disappointed. Customer care is a priority and the food is just as good. Nothing seems to be a problem. as a family of 6 we look to share plates at times and mix starters and main courses to keep everyone happy. No issues here. Portions were good and food excellent. fish dishes were wonderful and reasonable. We will be back.
  • We had the pleasure of visiting Glynsk house for lunch today. We dropped in whilst passing and were warmly welcomed. We were very impressed with the high standard of Covid 19 hygiene measures in place and felt totally at ease. The waitress was a lovely girl who made our visit most enjoyable . She told us the specials from the outset and took good care of us. The food was delicious and the price very reasonable. We would highly recommend. There is also a lovely craft shop there. We look forward to returning again.
