Had a great visit to The Quays Bar in Bantry. The staff were incredibly sound, welcoming and always happy to help, which made the whole experience even better. The prices were very reasonable, especially considering the quality of the food and service. I ordered the haddock and chips and it was absolutely spot on – fresh, perfectly cooked fish with a crispy batter and lovely chips on the side. The atmosphere was relaxed and friendly, making it a great place to stop for food or a few drinks. I’ll definitely be back and would happily recommend it to anyone visiting Bantry. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Lovely authentic place. Good atmosphere. The clam chowder was excellent.

Staff were pleasant but not hugely observant. To begin, we were given a table, but had to clean it ourselves. Our shared starter of chicken wings were clearly reheats as they were cold in the centre, and when told we got an “oh sorry about that”. Three drinks, one cold starter and two dinners came in at €80
