Reviews of Quinlan's Seafood Bar
L. F.
Really good food, fair prices and pretty polite staff.
The place isn't very cozy.
P. J.
This restaurant serves excellent food.
The Seafood chowder is really excellent and nicely presented. It offers many fish & chips with several kinds of fish. They are excellent. Appetizing, crispy and the fish are as firm as they are tender. It is cooked to perfection.
The prices are really correct.
When you are seated in front of the cooks bar, you are treated to two screens: one presenting the region and the other the making of the food, from the fishing to our plates. A real pleasure.
The only negative point: the coffee is terrible. And yet it is with a real Italian machine that they are made. There is a big adjustment problem ...
P. B.
Undoubtedly the finest fish & chips I had the pleasure to consume. The Staff are so welcoming & genuine, its impossible not too love the place!
A. K.
Nice sea foods. Book in advance cause to busy. Try the fresh portmagee crab claws and Dingle bay wild squid. Normally these two menus are running out mostly. Last time while I ordered they failed to provide it to me. Located in the heart of the city center and toilet available.
T. M.
Nice fish restaurant with a small Menü but the fish is absolutely fresh and of top quality. The fries are superb and worth to be ordered as single dish. The portions are pretty hughe, a normal eater won't be able to finish the plate totally. If you're into in having a yummy dish of fish that makes you smile this is the place to go. I wish there were a greasy spoon like this in my home town.
A. R.
Insider secret to the best thing to order, ask for the prawns but in their garlic butter sauce, SO DELICIOUS! Their fish and chips are killer as well. Super fresh food, nice staff and very clean restaurant. It is small so there may be a wait depending on how busy they are. Definitely a great place to eat.
P. K.
The fish is cooked perfectly, it is fresh off the sea and the service is out of this world. Best place in town if you want to have fresh, scrumptious and perfectly cooked fish.
V. M.
Very fresh and tasty traditional food, as well as doesn't break your budget

We got there around 6:30pm before the crowd. Waited only for about 5 minutes for seating. It appears they don't give each table for a designated waiter/waitress. The waiter used a tablet to take our orders. Food cam in about 10 minutes. I had the 🦀 crawls and my spouse had fan fried salmon. And we had onion rings. The 🦀 crawls were fabulous. There were 10 crawls there cooked with garlic and butter oil. My spouse liked her salmon and salad was fresh. And the onion rings were crunchy. I also had a soda. The whole meal for two was only £40 plus tips. Price is extremely reasonable. I will stay at Killarney for 3 nights. I will stop by and try out the fish and chips which looks good to me as well.
S. d. B.
This is FRESH fish at its best. They have their own boats so you can be sure it's fresh. Chips are these nice thick cut genuine potato chips, take away and sit down; one of my weekly meala
A. S.
Lovely seafood and service. Nice interior, modern touch. Unfortunately, no alcohol is served BUT a pint would be nice too! Definitely recommend if you’re heading for a spot of lunch. Take away option is on spot. Very central and a huge car park is five minutes walk away.
B.
Quite pricey considering it's a very casual place, but portions are big and we left satisfied. The squid is local and fried to a perfect crisp tenderness. We also had pan fried lemon sole, which was the daily special.
N. B.
Wow it was fab n staff are soooooo kind friendly n helpful
J. T.
We came here for dinner one night during our stay in Killarney.
We started with a couple of seafood chowders which I thought was pretty good. It's served with a good brown bread. For my main dish, I got fish and chips with hake, but I substituted onion rings for the chips. I really enjoyed my meal. My parents said the chips weren't very good. My husband got the crab claws and loved them.
It's a very small restaurant and it was pretty busy when we were there, but we didn't have to wait to be seated. We had good service as well.
If you're looking for good seafood at a reasonable price, this is a good place to stop.
b. B.
So tasty! I wouldn’t mind to eat their prawns and salad every single day if I did not have to leave Killarney!
M. H.
Mixed feelings about the food. The cod and haddock and chips were so-so, didn't taste as fresh as hoped. The fried squid was very fresh but the batter was slightly too light so it didn't taste crispy nor satisfying. The Atlantic prawns were excellent, full of flavour. Overall our party agreed that the batter being used on the fish and prawns were under seasoned. I personally think it would be better if their mains included mushy peas as standard and not an extra, otherwise you feel kind of nasty eating that much yellow food (fried fish and fried potatoes) on one plate! The prices are high for what you get so I would say this is not a value for money place, and I still maintain that the best fish and chips are from local chippys rather than restaurants like this. Bit offended by the notice that every person must order one main meal minimum at "peak times". They also don't advertise when the peak times are. This shows a profit centric attitude rather than a customer centric one, which is disappointing.
J. m.
Quality seafood and responsive service but they fry their fish on too low of a heat with a thick breading, causing a fry that's soaked in grease (thereby losing the crunch). The seafood was high quality too but the place is busy so the staff doesn't really allow you to savor your meal at all. As soon as your done eating they're giving you your check and it's a little stressful.
S. C.
Very welcoming, extremely clean and the food was substantial and very tasty. Probably the best cod I've tasted and my husband loved his salmon salad
v. m.
Food is amazing. I got a pan fried plaice.
B. E.
Best fish and chips we had the whole trip! Had a variety of dishes but those fish and chips were flakey, melt in your mouth delicous. And look at all that fish!
A. T.
I had fresh plaice, cooked to perfection. The staff are soooo lovely and so professional with impeccable manners. Can't wait to try their sister restaurant 😁
M. C.
One of Killarney’s historical sea food restaurants : freshly made (tried the cod and squeed) , served hot and crispy like the fries
Nice service and reasonable prices ; a must-go
No alcohol served
Off season coming so no waiting and overall cleanliness (toilets included)
B. G.
The fish was really good and fresh, but the batter was too greasy for me. Portions are really big. The waitress wasn't the smily type, no effort to get understood as we are french. I wasn't able to get Some water, it felt like she ignored us.
A. E. l.
Amazing fresh fish, salads, and fries. Great service. Would definitely return. Place was clean and neat. Bathrooms upstairs also was clean too. Plenty of seating.
C. H.
First time in Killarney and man, Google knocked it put of the park with this recommendation. Fast service, excellent fish and chips. We walked in with a party of ten on Saturday night at 8:00 and only had to wait about ten minutes to get tables. Great spot on the high street.
K. L.
Lovely food and lovely staff. We had our first meal out since February and glad it didn't disappoint 😁
S. B.
Fantastic fish and chips with friendly and prompt service. There is a wide variety of fish to choose from and there are several other menu options as well. This is a small restaurant, so expect to be seated close to other groups. The bathroom/WC is upstairs, so bear that in mind if that could cause a problem.
D. O. S.
Loved every bite. Couldn’t recommend the scampi enough. Some of the best I’ve ever had! Great value too
S. L.
So fresh! So delicious! Had the seafood chowder, which was full of big chunks of fish, and the Dingle Bay squid, which might have been the best squid I’ve ever had. Tender, juicy, and very lightly breaded. Cannot recommend it enough!
L. G.
I gave it 4 stars in "fish and chips" shop category. Portions are big and prices are ok. My favourite always Dingle Bay Wild Squids, Traditional beer battered Wild Cod and Valentia Harbour Chowder. It would be great if more pickles in the tartar sauce. I like the fish and the squid as it coated in a very thin batter. I love the lobster as well but it's a seasonal menu, not sure they still have it.
P/S: If you're living locally, I suggest you to buy your fresh seafood/frozen seafood from them because it is really fresh if you compare to big supermarket. Big supermarkets bought in bulk purchase and this will take some time to sell all, makes the stocks losing its quality during freezing or thawing.
UPDATED ON 29/07/20. I just realised they also have kid's menu.
J. A.
Nice place with a lot of fish choices in the menu.. Although gone in a bank holiday afternoon and they didn't have many of the fish from the menu.. So that narrowed our choices. Prices are a little overestimated for the place, Although it's in a touristic area.
P. G.
The food here is amazing! Price is pretty good too. If you enjoy seafood, you really can't lose by going here.
C. C.
A nice, honest and tasty seafood eatery. Always fresh, the chowder is one of the best you'll find in Killarney. Quick and courteus service, well worth the relatively short waiting time at the entrance.
S. O.
Fantastic fresh food!
A. K.
Fantastic place for a dinner / lunch. Not a big fan of battered food (although fish looked fresh & juicy & delicious), I ordered shrimp cocktail toast with their special pink sauce, which was just exquisit. The place is very busy due to its popularity, but the wait isn't long and service is very good
P. Á.
Amazing beer breaded fish! Highly recommended! Be prepared that the place is always full.
T. M.
Really tasty fish n chips ,some of the best around . Portions are good size too ,will be back for sure
s. d.
Loved to squid and chowder . The only reason not to give the 5th star was would have liked a cheeper starter option on the squid without chips as I didn't want them .
B. H.
A nice selection of fresh fish, done simple to keep the character of the fish. If you can, go a little early for dinner. Before 5, plenty of tables available. After 6, line out the door.
L. H.
The best fish and chips I've ever had anywhere! The cod was delicious
A. B.
Really good place where to have fish and chips, really delicious, if you are looking for a place where to eat, it is the right one!
W. H.
Fantastic food, perfectly cooked fish and chips.
D. D.
Food was amazing, service was quick and polite but it was a touch expensive.
L. H.
Fresh, delicious, one of the best salads I've had honestly. The service was excellent and they were willing to answer any questions me and my group had.
P. D.
Amazing food always consistent. Chowder is off the charts good! Very friendly staff. The resturant is immaculate.
D. H.
Excellent food with a great selection. The place is small so it can get crowded quickly but they serve the food quickly to ensure no one waits too long.
b. M.
The chowder is great, other food is just like in any other takeaway fish&chip. Nice location.
J. C.
Nice service and good selection of fresh seafood. Reasonable prices in a casual atmosphere.
R. K.

O. P.
Best fish and chips I’ve ever had. Also squid was perfect, and the portion was no less than half a kilo!
M. V.
Amazing hake, chips are fresh (not frozen), portions are big and they even gave is tartar sauce and delicious mushy peas without asking for it. Highly recommended
A. J.
Good atmosphere, if you like sea food then do Vist this place..
M. H.
Staff are friendly and efficient. We were not waiting for long. Fish portion size was generous with just light batter and tasted fresh. Chips were very good too. The prices seem fair and were lower than most other restaurants in the area. I would definitely recommend for a quality fish and chip experience.
D. M.
Staff food location all top notch,enjoyed our meal ,highly recommended.
I. F.
Very nice place, if you like spanish squid style, this is your place. Fresh food and really friendly staff. Highly recommended :)

Top class fish and service excellent even with 3 small kids smiles all round thank you
P. S.
Great food and quick service from staff who are up for a bit of craic.
J. W.
The best fried squid I've ever had. The haddock was amazing as well
G. B.
Over a couple of days we tried the seafood chowder, prawns, cod, and crab claws. All excellent, definitely recommended. 10 out of 10.
E. A.
Good seafood good service from the staff, who were covid aware
K. A.
Nice Food, we order Salmon, Sea bass and fish and chips all food was great :)
B. L.
Fish and chips mushy peas and onions ring, delicious. And great value for money. Staff are super friendly too.
M. J.
Best fish and chips ever!
G. G. (.
We had the fish cakes and shrimp sandwich which were both tasty but the shrimp was especially refreshing. The fresh onion rings were also delightful but were slightly too oily for my liking which is the only reason I am giving 4 stars. The service was also good with lovely staff taking care of us.
A. M.
Authentic, delicious, super friendly -
Thanks to the team for the great service and the extraordinary food. We had been recommended this place by a local. I had local squid, the portion was giant, fresh, the price really good for the value. We returned the next day as it was our last night in Killarney and we knew that it was just going to be great again. This time I had the crab claws which was also delicious. The service was both times very friendly and attentive. I can highly recommend this place.
J. W.
Yum! Quick and delicious. We had the Haddock and chips, and the Fish Cakes. Both were delicious - especially the Haddock. It gets quite busy and can often have a lineup out the door. Service is quick though so you aren't usually waiting too long.
E. S.
Cod and open shrimp sandwich.
Exceptional restaurant, usually overcrowded but worth the wait
S. T.
One of the best fish and chips in the country. Family owned and it really shows. Great staff. And very reasonable prices
r. 3.
Fish was lovely. Crab claws were amazing. Go mid afternoon as no-one about. Very good at cleaning everything when you leave even the chairs. Well done.
R. E.
Fantastic fish & chips, hake was perfect. Crab claws and bread... beautiful. Great value and very friendly! Came in around 3pm on a weekday and had no problem getting served right away.
D. S.
Massive portions. Really quick and friendly service. Oh yeah and the food was fantastic
S. M.
Best fish ever ,prawns are to die for freshness of the food gosh defo will be going for it again highly recommended
G. Y.
There'll be a potentially a wait around dinner time. Luckily, the service is good and the line will move quickly. The brochure at the table claims this is run by a conglomerates of fishermen rather than some corporation. Good thing they know how to make some awesome fish n' chips - in fact, the very best I've had to date. The batter was perfection - so crispy and golden; and the fish was so soft and tender. It tasted ridiculously and impossibly good. OH, the chowder was also decent but not really on the same plane as ze fish.
J. M.
Came in on a whim and ordered the special of the day. The fish was sooo tender. Everything was seasoned really well too, whatever the salt and spice mix they used on the chips was, it was amazing! Will definitely come by again :)
M. H.
Simple, but high quality food. The staff were pleasant and the fish really fresh and cooked perfectly. My only small quibble is the menu is limited and on the day we visited even more restricted as several items were not available. Having said that, however, of you are looking for fish and chips you would be hard pressed to find better.
E. T.
I've been to Quinlan's Seafood Bar last bank holiday weekend with few friends. The food was fresh and absolutely delicious. You can get classic fish&chips and healthier options too. The staff were friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!
b. w.
Great food, Nice and friendly staff.
S. R.
DELICIOUS Fish & Chips! I want to go back to Ireland for this quick and inexpensive dinner again!
S. P.
Super lunch here today, as always. One of my favourite lunch venues.
M. F.
Food is amazing! They sure know how to cook fish:) That behind said, 4 stars not 5, due to less than exciting service. It's a shame really because the food is so good. Someone lively and friendly serving us would have made a world of difference... Just did not feel like it was worth the fuss when the service was so very mediocre.
T. G.
Spectacular. Best fish and chips I've ever had. Also possibly the best onion rings I've ever had. They use massive onions that I didn't know could possibly exist. Everything was fried to perfection. Generous portion sizes, great value. I would have been perfectly happy eating all of my meals in Killarney here!
T. O.
I know sea food. I love it. You will not find a better fish and chips meal in Munster. I go here regularly and it's simply outstanding. In peak season you may have to wait half an hour or so before you get a table. I advice you to wait. You won't be disappointed.
M. D.
Fish is very fresh, solid fish and chips, but other good (and healthier) fish dishes on the menu. Seafood chowder had nice fresh chunks of fish. Very efficient service - seated and served very quickly. Very friendly staff.
L. Q.
Fab food service and gorgeous fish.
P. B.
Quinlan's is always my first choice when it comes to seafood in Kerry. Yesterday I ordered sea bass and chowder for takeaway and the process was so easy, the price so reasonable and the fish so fresh. I definitely recommend either eating in shop or taking fish for takeaway whenever you're in Killarney.
A. G.
We were after fresh seafood and that is what we got!! Quinlan’s is perfect if you’re after a laid back, fresh, top quality meal with friendly and efficient service. I tried the Dingle Bay Squid and the Wild Haddock with proper chips and probably the best mushy peas I’ve ever had!! The restaurant was packed and the waiters coped so well. The bottle of wine we ordered was out of stock and they gave us a better wine for no extra charge... I mean what more could you ask for.
I. S. V.
The food was really nice, specially the calamari, which was also a pretty good portion. The battered fish portion was less generous. The chips were great and the salad pretty decent. However considering the fast food setting the price seems a bit high, which loses it the fifth star.
A. B.
The host at our B&B suggested this place as a great seafood joint. WOW! Blew it out of the water. I'm not a huge fan of seafood, however I ordered the Fish 'N' Chips and was so happy. Absolutely delicious! Great job, a must when in the area.
J. O.
Excellent. Beautiful fresh battered fish and much more. We found this restaurant last year, had a lovely simple meal of the best fish, home cut chunky chips etc. You may have to wait a short while when the restaurant is busy, but it is well worth it.
M.
Nice fish and chips, sometimes. Got it twice but the second time the portion was smaller and there were no condements, unlike the first time... So its a bit hit an miss...
C. C.
Quinlans is one of the best restaurants in Cork. The food is always amazing and the waiting staff are always polite, friendly, very knowledgeable of all the items on the menu and extremely efficient. We have been here many times and it is always guaranteed to be a fabulous dining experience.
There was a few issues with our food on this occasion, first it was the wrong dish, then the second time the food was undercooked and raw but the third time the meal was perfect. This is the first time anything like this has happened while dining here and even with all these problems we will definitely be going back. The waitress who was serving us could not have been more apologetic for all the issues we had and she was outstanding to do a busy lunchtime service as the only waitress on, only being assisted by the bar person. She even removed the full charge for the dish that had the issues. Her going above and beyond to rectify the dish and then remove the charge really cemented why we love this restaurant.
This place is a must see.
R. A.
Best fish and chips in Kerry.
T. H.
Good fish and chips. But guys is it really too much to use a list at the door? So it doesn’t become a game of who can crowd a tiny doorway the most during a pandemic.
J. V.
It's ok. Not the best fish & chips I had, but I guess it's the best one around the area. But for me it was only ok. The cod didn't had much flavor as it had no season. It wasn't very firm either. But I love seafood so I ate everything:). They don't serve alcohol, so don't count on having a glass of wine or beer with it.
A. S.
What an excellent place for fantastic seafood. We had the fish and chips and the sea bass and they were both delicious! The salad had a lovely dressing and the chips were really good.
M. Ó. T.
Gorgeous Any Fish you like or try something you fancy, Gorgeous chips or Salad it's up to you. Friendly staff and fantastic make over the Restaurant. Can be very busy pending Season. A good credit to the staff and the fishermen bringing in the catch of the day. See you soon Lad's *****
M. H.
We had the sea bass pan fried and the beer battered cod, both with chips, both were excellent. The staff are also super knowledgeable on food allergies and gluten free needs, superb resturrest! A must try when in town!
G. R.
Amazing place to Eat in. Beautiful fresh fish and chips. Service was excellent. Thanks guys and keep up the high quality.
J. J.
I had best fish and chips here finally!! I have tried several fish and chips in Ireland and the results were always dissapointing. But I had satisfying fish and chips. The portion was bit big for me but I really liked!! The resturant is also clean and knit. The staff was kind as well.
G. O.
Great food, both battered and fresh fish cooked here. Try the homemade onion rings just fantastic! It is centrally located in the middle of the town . Always a busy place especially lunch and dinner time.
A. B.
Crab Claws were out of this world good
D.
It's almost 9 in Killarney and you don't know what to do? Obviously it's a very quirky town so I'm sure you will have no problem in finding a great Pub but as everyone knows, you don't drink on an empty stomache!
This brings me to Quinlans.
It's a bright Restaurant (more bar with tables) that seats maybe 50-60 People? We got there and people were waiting on the street. Since it was just the 2 of us we got in rather quick. Maybe 10 minute wait?
We both had the special which was fish (who would've thought). For the price it was good. The atmosphere is exactly as you would expect and you really won't be staying to long. Hence the short wait for us outside.
The food was worth the money. The service was quick and thoughtful even though there was a mix up with some of the reservations.
All in all I would do it again... at least for a quick bite!
A. “. A.
A very comfortable place in the very heart of Killarney mainstreet where they serve fresh seafoods on their menu. The staff team are a bunch of amazing and very friendly people. There is a kid friendly menu with colouring options on the menu. There is absolutely no dull moments for the children at all while you are there. The rest rooms are near and well kept . My son absolutely loves every bit of our visit to the location. We will definitely visit Quinlan's again when we visit Killarney in the nearest future.
G. K.
Missed out on a table at the Mad Monk but the seafood bar didn't disappoint. Great service & fantastic range of fresh fish. A must when visiting Killarney
A. F.
I enjoyed the wild cod and chips with mushy peas.
F. B.
Had the fish (hake) & chips. Best fish in a restaurant ever. The service was very good and very fast. The prices were fair. unfortunately I live in Germany so it will take some time to taste it again. ;-)
K. W.
Not a fish eater just had chips with amazing deep fried onion rings and mushy peas. Friendly staff and Spotlessly clean eaterie.
C. “. M.
Got hake and chips to take away. Hake large and fresh. Good social distancing measures for collecting takeaway, though bring a coat if it's cold!
a. s.
Best fish cakes I’ve ever had, so fresh. Outstanding service, so fast and so friendly and accommodating. Prices great for what you get!
S. O.
Great fish and chips
N. O.
Nice Cod and Chips. The batter was crispy enough with light oil. Potatoes were well fried and served either.
S. H.
It was really full and people waited in the door, so it got rather cold in there.
Friendly staff, food didn't take too long.
They were out of some fish pretty early, so we couldn't eat what we planned originally.
Chips were quite soggy and the fish greasy, but okay. Portions are big.
S. J.
Unbelievably fast service, and unbelievably delicious. We had the open crab salad sandwich special, fish and chips and squid. Fair price and friendly service. Freshest seafood we had during a weeklong trip to Ireland. Yum yum yum.
M. K.
Best fish and chips I've had worth the visit
U. A.
It was below my expectations. Everything looks to be deep fried and arrives on table with much oil. The place was crowdy. Huge wating line outside, what makes you feel you need to hurry up. The prawns were tasteful though.
S. B.
This was some of the freshest (you could taste the sweetness of the seafoo!), delicious seafood we have had in a long while. Great atmosphere, great customer service. Will be back:)
s. h.
Great local restaurant that was recommended by a family member. I went the soup/salad/Guinness route for lunch and everything was great. The seafood chowder was spectacular and the salad was about what I expected. Very affordable restaurant.
S. A.
Really nice place food. The service was good but the were unable to give customers time. They didn't realise we had finished our food and wanted the bill or when we wanted more food or when our water was gone. I think that was due to the busy holiday season though. Overall I'd recommend it.
A. C.
It's a given that the food is great, fresh and locally sourced. But what I love more about Quinlans is how they treat their staff and support the town locally. It says alot about the business and owners. Love seeing the same faces serve me.
S. K.
I ate a lot of fish and chips in Ireland. Too much probably. These were my favorite. Unlike many, they weren't overly breaded. Just enough to get that satisfying crunch without making things too heavy.
M. W. O.
Quintana s fish Bar brillant they had
No specials but four 5 people cod plenty
of chips mushy peas and 5 orange juice
ONLY 77 .25. Excellent Value
L. B.
Great spot.No medical apartheid with vaccine certificate there as of July 2021.
B. H.
Beautiful food and great service from friendly staff
T. M.
We stopped here for an early dinner while visiting Killarney. It is a small updated diner that has a good selection of fish options. Portions are big and onions rings even bigger!!! Would recommend the white fish
J. S.
Honestly, the best fish I have had, period. I have worked in Michelin star restaurants that didn't respect the ingredients they way that Quinlans does, simple, fresh and just perfect batter. Only downside is its too many miles from chicago
M. M.
well worth a visit if you like fish and chip. You wont go wrong calling in here. Good portions ,clean and staff friendly .
M. R.
Hake is dreamy! Our favorite fish restaurant in Ireland. Service fast and friendly and all the items on the menu are so very delicious. Especially the chips!
V. E.
Great Fish and Chips. This location is less busy than some of the more populated areas. Great place to savor a traditional flavor. Multiple fish to choose from and try the peas.
N. H.
Always great fish and chips! Have not sat down to eat here, only take out, but always the freshest of fish!
E. K.
Learned that there were more types of fish. I was only used to frozen fish but this place has really fresh fish that are battered just right. Hake and Plaice were great.
M. B.
I had a nice quiet dinner on a Friday late evening here. Amazing food. I tried their day's special sea bass with salads. Highly recommended on a sea-food craving!
R. C.
Delicious seafood and excellent service. I asked for an extra side of chips and my server said "oh did you not get enough, I'll bring you some extra free of charge" that's the kind of service that brings you back to a place.
R. T.
Delicious fish & chips. We ate there as part of our tour of Ireland by car. The staff are wonderful and the food delicious. We hope to be back one day!
J. B.
The fish and chips were so good that we ordered it both nights we stayed near Killarney. There may be a wait to eat there, but take away is always an option. The orders came with a ton of fish and you have the option of choosing between cod, pollock, hake, plaise and whiting. The chips were also incredibly abundant. Quinlan's was the best fish and chips we had on our trip to Ireland.
S. M.
Popped in here while walking past one evening and I'm so happy we did. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The food is delicious and well priced. The locations is central and easy to access. We will be back
J. F.
Most important - get the onion rings with whatever else you get. Everything was prepared perfectly, especially fried stuff. Busy, casual, no alcohol. Not fancy, but great if you just need seafood in your system.
S. d. B.
This is the BEST fish and chips in Killarney try it you won't be disappointed
G. P.
Best fish and chips I've ever had! So fresh and tasty, prawns as well and great seafood chowder
J. R.
We went to Quinlan's because we were all really wanting some fish and chips. It met our needs, but it certainly wasn't the "best ever." We might've been spoiled by a more authentic restaurant earlier in the week, but the food was good, the service was quick, and the staff was friendly.
A. T.
Food excellent,5/5
Service :4/5 looked like if they were
Short of staff.
We did not like the waiter spraying cleaner on table beside us, as it created
A strong smell of chemicals.
Yes we will return
K. A.
best fish and chips ever
D. O. S.
Great selection of local seafood at very reasonable prices. Great staff. Looked after big group of us easily.

Visited Quinlans a good while back and we were very disappointed as I wrote in my previous review,I was contacted by owner and he was very understanding and nice and asked if we would give it another chance we said we would and he very kindly sent a voucher.Well we finally got around to returning today,I had the fishcakes with salad and himself had cod meal.The fishcakes and salad were really tasty and the cod was also much tastier than on last visit im happy to say.So we will definitely return and recommend and Thank you for getting back to me.

I can't say they're the best in Ireland but they are the best fish and chips I've ever had.
T. L.
The food was tasty to be sure, but my eyes almost fell out of their sockets when I received the bill. €19 for lemon sole?
V. O.

The best fish and chips I've ever eaten great staff aswell
R. T.
Unfortuantly turned up early evening on a busy Saturday and got a ticking off for not knowing the queuing rules. Turns out there is a notice at knee level in the airing cupboard size lobby inside the front door which spells it it out. "Stay where you are, dont even think about walking towards a vacated table" but by the end of our meal I believe we had gained some favourability with madam in charge. So why five stars? Well we returned on a less hectic evening and there was no such problem because we knew the rules and tables were becoming available more frequently, but mainly because the fish and chips were probably better than even Carlsberg could produce if they did Fish & Chips, absolute heaven and if you take the precaution of asking for the drink that comes with the meal to be delivered after eating and its a cup of tea then it is perfection and worth all the five stars in the world.
C. K.
Seriously good shrimp sandwich.
D. M.
Great place to eat all fish is sourced locally and very fresh get there early it gets busy in the evening and also great prices with a lot of food

Great and fresh seafood in heart of Killarney town. Lovely staff and atmosphere! Great value for money!
J. J. a. R. P. T.
The seafood was ok at best but not high quality. It is a run of the mill seafood place. The prices are little inflated for the style of food you recieve.
A. S.
Excellent food and very friendly staff. Usually a few minutes of queuing but worth it. Only one high chair for children.
M. H.
Food was ok but could have been a bit bigger plus battered cod was soggy at the bottom. Squid could have been crisper. Staff were excellent
