WELCOME TO VELDON’S SEAFARER

  The staff were excellent. They were very attentive and accommodated us even though we did not make a booking. Food wise, the captain’s platter was a bit of a let... read more down. Some pictures from other reviewers showed a hot platter but ours were all cold so the hubby was complaining a bit as he doesn’t like cold seafood. The pasta was bland but tasted lovely after we added salt to it so we are happy enough with that dish. Everyone enjoyed the desserts. The chips were also proper chippers’ chip. Overall quite good.

  Above average kitchen, wide selection of locally seeded seafood and typical Irish pub food.

Pro tip: try the desserts!

  After driving the Sky Road we had to stop for what else? Seafood. Not only was the service friendly, and the drinks coldthis was THE BEST seafood I’ve ever had!!!... read more I had the Hake with Cream RedPepper Sauce over Ratatouille. The fish came out very fresh and flaky, but more than that the ratatouille was also fresh and perfectly seasoned. The Red Pepper cream was the perfect compliment to the meal and I was in Heaven! It was served with a side of steamed veg and even those were fresh and well seasoned!! Is this place worth a stop? Hell Yes!!!

  Delicious lunch — the fish and chips and lamb stew were delicious mains and the seafood chowder had lots of fish in it ans a nice foabourful not heavy base.... read more Calamari was also very good. Very good service

Will be back ASAP.

From the moment we walked through the door until the moment we left, we had a fabulous experience here. The staff was incredibly friendly and went out of their way to check that everything was as expected.

We all had yummy food: tasty fish and chips, spicy wings (with a legit Buffalo wing taste that had been difficult to find throughout Europe, so that was really appreciated), lamb, burger, and salmon.

Veldons has it all. The Irish workers are charming in a way that just isn’t present in Dublin or the super touristy spots. The food is Irish and very tasty and fresh. We loved it and would happily return if life allows.

  We were part of a group of 6 adults and 3 children so we rang ahead to try book and were told they dont take bookings. When we arrived we... read more were then told they were fully booked indoors, but were able to get outdoor dining 2 tables, not together. When a table beside us left our party asked if they could move over and this was facilitated. The gentleman organising the seatings was very friendly and helpful. All but one enjoyed their dinner, one of the steaks was very uncooked but we didnt report it to staff.
We returned another evening as a smaller party and were again told they were "fully booked" even though there appeared to be lots of empty tables, and having previously been told they dont take bookings. We were however able to go into the bar for a drink before having to go to the shop to buy our own food and go back to our accommodation to self cater. This inconsistent message re bookings was very disappointing as we were unable to get a table anywhere that night. Also we werent asked for our COVID passports or ID's when we went in for that drink, but it was quiet inside anyway.
