Foley's Bar Bistro, Kenmare

Not only were the rooms and food wonderful, but all of the staff was amazing. Mr. Foley himself was the nicest and most pleasant proprietor I have ever encountered. He offered many suggestions for day trips and was always concerned with our comfort.

I was in a large tour group and wandered off in search of someplace quiet to dine for lunch. Foley's met all of my expectations: Traditional Irish dark pub atmosphere, quiet and not too busy, and very fresh and delicious seafood selections. The Kenmare Bay salmon, grilled just right, with side dishes of carrots mixed with broccoli and traditional colcannon (the best I had while on the entire trip), were cooked to perfection. Very simple food expertly prepared. One of my favorite meals while I was in Ireland!

The food was some of the best i had during my ten days in ireland. The service was also great. Its a good atmosphere for audults or families alike. Beautifully decorated traditional pub.

Foley's Bar was very comfortable and friendly, but it was the accommodations above the bar that were the best. We stolled in to find a wonderful Irish Pub with a flair. The rooms were inexpensive and the beer was cold!! After our entire trip was over, it was Foley's that stuck in my mind as the best place we stayed. Loved it!!!
