I went there with my friends and it was my first time. I loved it. It's so clean, and the food was amazing. We were about 15 friends and all thr dishes ordered were perfect 👌 the view was amazing. I ordered chicken box and the portion was so fulfilling, I will definitely order it again. My sister ordered the beef box which was fine but I highly recommend the chicken one. The deserts were AMAZING 👏 🤩 😍 my friend ordered fish and it was so fresh. I highly recommend this restaurant and the service was excellent 👌 the staff were so friendly and helpful. I got apple juice and it was so good. My overall experience was great and the prices were reasonable as well.

Views & locationFriendly staffGenerous portionsSeafood
I hadn't been to the Curragower in quite a while, and it was great to see that the place has had a refresh. The outdoor area has been updated with hanging foliage, which adds to the atmosphere. We were lucky to visit on a beautiful day, and the views over the river and King John's Castle are reason enough to stop by and enjoy a drink or a meal.
Despite not having a reservation, we were shown to a table quickly, which was appreciated. The menu still features their famous mussels (great portions), but overall the food offering felt fairly standard for a pub and wasn't particularly adventurous. Prices are on the higher side, so I would have liked to see a bit more creativity on the menu.
The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the service was efficient throughout. While the food didn't particularly stand out, the excellent location, updated outdoor space, and pleasant atmosphere make the Curragower a worthwhile spot to visit.
Nice place especially if you're sitting at the terrace. The food, trying to do different kind of dining, but I'd say its not achieved completely. The seafood chowder is delucious, main dishes were just ok...the proportion of the complements is not adequate. Parsnip pure with the chicken enough for one bite. It results to have a dry dish. Fish was OK, just a bit dry/overcooked.
