The best in Kerry Some of the freshest most tender and sumptuous seafood I've ever had. How could a mussel be so good? As I said in my review of the hotel, after ordering one we immediately had to have a 2nd. The fish here is spectacular, some of the best food I had in my entire trip to Ireland. The people are equally wonderful and thoughtful. A truly memorable experience.

Exceptional From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality from Kate and staff that made us feel right at home. The attention to detail in every aspect of our stay was impeccable. The restaurant is both a comfortable and luxurious experience. The seafood is as fresh as it gets, and the flavours exquisite. Each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with taste—clearly made with fresh local ingredients. As for the townhouse, it exceeded all our expectations. The rooms were stylishly decorated, spacious, and equipped with all the modern amenities you could need. The bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring a great night’s sleep. The breakfast delivery the room is a touch that one would hope for in any where they stayed. QC's is not just a place to eat and sleep; it's an experience that combines luxury, comfort, and authentic service.

Go no further….. Amazing food, incredible hospitality, and cosy atmosphere. Loved everything about this restaurant on our first visit. The staff, Jamie & Charlie could not have been more pleasant and down to earth, such a treat to be served by such enthusiasm. Can’t wait to visit again, and now that I know they also have accommodation, it will be our go to for special occasions. Keep up the fantastic work👏🏼👏🏼

Really good! Highly recommend! Lovely spot, nice menu, lovely staff. Had the prawn starter, lovely! Then the crusted Hake, which was also lovely. The Hake could be a tad bigger, but it was delicious. Will be back!

An Exceptional Experience! I absolutely loved Quinlan & Cooke (Q&C) Boutique Townhouse and Restaurant in Cahersiveen! If I lived in Ireland, it would be a place I would return to without hesitation. How we got there is a bit of a story. We were trekking The Kerry Way, and our trekking company had put us up in another accommodation. Unfortunately, this particular hotel was a 1-star at best. We have done 4 different treks over the years and have never been so disappointed in an accommodation, so this was an exception. With that being said, we were supposed to stay an extra day in Cahersiveen (it was our rest day). My husband and I couldn’t fathom staying another night in this particular hotel as it was very dirty and had water and heating issues. While walking in town I came across the Q&C and thought I would give it a go. The staff was so accommodating! I explained my situation although I was hesitant to make negative comments about the other location. With Cahersiveen being a small town, I didn’t want to speak poorly of a small business, but I was also not willing to stay there any longer. The Q&C had 1 room left and I snatched it up! The room was gorgeous! It had an extremely comfortable bed and a wonderful shower (both of which are a treat after trekking all day!). We ended up eating at the Q&C restaurant 2 nights in a row because the food was excellent! One of my favorite features of this Hotel was their breakfast service in the morning. Our mini frig contained a beautiful array of breakfast goodies, and in the early morning, you would find fresh French pastries at your door! All of which were included in the very reasonable price of the room. Now that is an amazing feature and service! I also can’t speak highly enough of the entire staff and owner! They were all friendly, helpful, and kind and provided over-the-top customer service! Since we live in the United States, I don’t imagine that we would ever be back, but I can’t recommend Quinlan & Cooke enough, you will not be disappointed!

First rate This is a fantastically run business, with first rate service. All the staff are super friendly and helpful. The food is exceptional! You are located in the heart of Caherciveen. I will 100% be coming back to this restaurant/hotel. I would like to give a mention to Jamie who looked after us…10 out of 10 🙌🏻 COYS
