    Was v cold near the glass but when more people came it got warmer. Echo from high ceilings, lack of furnishings,people talking and music meant it was hard to have a conversation. Mains came quickly after starters felt rushed. My friend wanted burger without bun looked v unappetising. Only veg option was sprout. Limited wine list.

    Killarney Brewing & Distilling CompanyResponded 1 day ago

    Thank you for your feedback, we have noted your comments and will take them on board moving forward. We are disappointed to hear that our wine list wasn’t to your liking, we have carefully chosen a select choice of popular wines that cover everyone’s tastes including four different red and white wines, one orange, one rosé and two sparkling - we hope you will give us another chance in the future.

    Killarney Brewing & Distilling Company has created a magnificent facility to operate within…….the central high point of the building being their restaurant. The restaurant is immaculate with comfortable seating where diners can relax and look out on a quite spectacular view of the Macgillycuddy's Reeks. With constantly changing light and cloud formations the view is truly magnificent. The food is excellent and prepared and served promptly by a team of professional, friendly and enthusiastic staff. After eating at this facility for 3 times in recent months we shall certainly be coming back to Kerry and importantly to this restaurant.

    We went way out of our way to try this place. I ordered the best burger on the menu, most expensive and what seemed to be the most delicious. It was served with the other food. 3 of the 4 meals seemed to be okay, sadly mine was not. I ordered the burger with the bun on the side. Not a hard request, pretty damn simple If you ask me. I do this because I don’t want all the sauces, cheese, juices, & etc to get on the bun. I still want the bun, just ON THE SIDE! The server disappeared until the end of the meal so I couldn’t get it corrected. All of my dinner mates were done eating so by the time they offered to remake/correct it. it was time to go . Sadly, I left without eating, kind of ruin the night and put a major damper on the trip.
