Monasterboice Inn

  We both decided to go here for our Scampi fix, this restaurant has to be the best in the business. The place is cosy and warm. Everything about this restaurant... read more is professional. On arrival we were asked for our Covid certs and ID. You are as safe as you can be when out, well done the staff and management.
We ordered chicken wings to share, they were fresh, cooked perfectly and the sauce is superb. For mains we both had a large and a small scampi with chips and saute potatoes. For years the scampi is top class here and I am amazed at the quality of the food in this restaurant. The service is better than ever. If you are looking for top class food, service in a very safe homely environment this is the place.
Thankyou to the staff, the chef, the management and the bar man for a great evening and yes we will be back and yes highly recommended.

  I had the Brie and chicken wings to start, both were delicious, especially the brie. Often brie can be solid by the time it comes out, but it was still... read more nice a gooey when I cut into it. I had the Steak and chips for my main. The steak was excellent. It was tender, cooked exactly medium rare and remained warm the entire time. The only downside was the chips. they were nothing special and I didn't really touch them. there's not much excuse for not having great chips. However everything else made up for this. The Sticky toffee pudding and the eclair were great deserts also. the staff were friendly and helpful. I will definitely go back.

  Arrived at lunchtime and it was very busy but you didn’t feel rushed. We were greeted at the door were our covid Certa were checked. We had a great girl... read more with pink hair serving us (I didn’t get her name) and she is the reason for my review. She was friendly, welcoming and attentive. She made sure we had everything we needed and at one stage spotted some cutlery on the table had a small mark on it and hurried to replace it all without any fuss. She was chatty without being too much. If I was management I would be making sure she was well looked after.
For starters we had mushroom vol at vents and for mains we had beef casserole and Caesar salad, finished off with a beautiful lemon cheesecake and I can honestly say everything was delicious. Good portion sizes. We will definitely be back.
