We had dinner at the restaurant last Saturday night. The food was nice. The staff were professional and friendly The only complaint I have is the restaurant was freezing. I had to put back on my coat. Which also meant the food got cold quickly....Please turn up you heating. Thank you 🙏More

Had a meal here recently with family party. Attractive menu reasonably priced Very crowded but there was no delay due to our very excellent server Larry who was most helpful and efficient. Pork chop was outstanding. Will certainly return. Fully recommended.

Amazing food. Great atmosphere. Friendly staff - particularly family friendly. Great children’s menu. We will be back.

Restaurant is in an excellent location at Blackrock Castle. Lovely ambiance and the food was beautifully presented, tasted great and is reasonably priced. However, the highlight for me was the friendly, attentive and professional service - it really was excellent. Had a lovely relaxed family...dinner , which was thoroughly enjoyed by all . Well done to management and staff . Keep up the good work .More

Great lunch in the courtyard. We even got to see a wedding party arrive for their wedding in the castle! The staff were lovely, even offered hot water bottles when it turned a bit chilly! Lovely food(pan fried hake for me , fish and chips...for the other two). Would definitely recommend it!!More

Firstly the setting is superb located within Blackrock Castle with outdoor dining available when weather permits. The indoor restaurant is a little tight and therefore noisy but acceptable during our meal. We dined as a table of three and all the food was beautifully presented...however it is the service that is worthy of special mention. Service as I have stated many times previously is in my opinion a vital component of any dining experience and is I believe as lasting a memory if not more so than the food. Our server ( who's name I rudely neglected to obtain ) was superb, friendly and attentive yet informal and knowledgably of her menu whilst maintaining professionalism throughout. As starters we had the beef cheek croquettes, which I though was skilfully cooked and rendered down to a very good texture, however it was for my palate at least, a little over seasoned ( and I like salt ) and chicken liver pate which was a little over set and metallic in flavour. For mains I ordered the Hake ! I eat a lot of fish and my Hake ( which is a very good middle of the road white fish ) was cooked to perfection. The dish presented as an attractive and balanced plate, with an unusual golden beetroot ingredient, however I thought the dish required the side order of very flavoursome fries, which when added makes the dish a little expensive for Hake. My partner ordered the Chimmi Curri Beef Salad which was described as flavoursome spicy but not hot !!! Its just as well she ordered it as she likes heat, which the dish most certainly was ! Our companion ordered the steak as blue which he described as adequate, he couldn't really state whether it required more resting or ageing ! the plate looked a little mean and didn't really catch the eye. It looked unfinished and unbalanced with the steak sitting atop a small offering of fried onions and mushrooms. I personally believe a steak plate desperately requires something green like asparagus to add a bit of colour and cut through the heavy set nature of said plate. The desserts were a chocolate cup, a bread and butter pudding which were adequate and a rhubarb crumble which was far to shallow in the dish to be effective as a crumble and was supplemented by a tiny ineffective offering of ice cream, even though more was requested. So all in all I would return and believe 4 stars to be the correct rating, our waitress moved the experience from 3 1/2 to 4.More

Beef tongue croquettes were excellent, steak was perfect, bread and butter pudding divine and malbec complemented the starter and main perfectly. Service was excellent. Will definitely return.

The staff went to a lot of trouble to save an accessible table for my mother in law. She had a great time - the food was lovely and nothing was too much trouble.

Excellent food and made very welcome even though did not have reservation. And staff sang Happy Birthday to my daughter as it was her “big day”. Lovely touch and hope to come back again.

My group of 17 had an excellent dinner in the Castle Café on Fri night. they had a lovely visit to the Blackrock Castle before dinner. Everything about the restaurant was excellent, dealing with Jerry in advance was very good he is very professional and...helpful. The food was excellent my delegates were mixed nationalities and everyone of them comment about the great standard of the food. Places like this makes my job easier thank youMore

Excellent facility to be able to reserve your table online. We were seated promptly. Good choice on both the lunch and the drinks menu. Friendly staff. Fish and chips was excellent assm was the desert. Unfortunately the BLT was disappointing. Quite difficult and messy to...eat. The toilet facilities are limited. Prepare for queues.More

I loved everything about this place. The food, the ambience, the staff, the crowd. One of the best experiences of my life. Definitely worth it. Also want to mention Sheila. She was wonderful!
