Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

A good selection of food at reasonable prices. Friendly, helpful staff. We ate here twice a day for a week and couldn't recommend it highly enough. Its a clean, welcoming environment with fabulous views and lovely artwork to enjoy while you dine.

Highly recommend this restaurant that overlooks Kilkee Beach and Pollock Holes. Their open prawn and crab sandwiches are great. Any option can be served GF.

Basically a nice place and the food is good but the new system of picking a table number before you order is just not workable if you are on your own. When you go back to the table there is someone else sitting there. if...you want coffee and desert you have to join the que for food again and it is just so slow that its not worth the bother. Again the food is good but this system is very off putting.More

We had a team event here and really enjoyed a relaxed, delicious lunch and were even able to sit outside with the most fabulous view. The team were so helpful and available to help at all times. They even accommodated a last-minute bakery request for...a team member's birthday with a customised cake.More

We put our order in at the counter and it was delivered to the table in...no time. The menu is extensive and we went for a panini and a banoffee pie which was deliciousMore
