Visited fishy fishy for lunch with a friend last Sunday- what an experience! The place itself is very relaxing, in a great setting but wow, the food!! I had the fish pie, and friend the fish and chips, with a sticky toffee pudding to finish. This was absolute decadence, and thoroughly enjoyable- I would highly recommend a visit here. More

Its busy because its probably the best seafood, and reasonably priced when equated to the quality of food being served up ,that I have ever had the pleasure to eat in. The atmosphere and quality of this... More

We had a nice meal at Fishy Fishy however their popularity and success is evident. They are very busy and we did feel a bit rushed as they wanted to turn the table. The prices are also on the higher side - again, a product of their success. I am giving it four stars because of this. On the bright... More

As it's name suggests, Fishy Fishy serves some of the finest seafood that we found in our 12 days in Ireland. The mussels starter were the best and freshest I've ever had! Reservations are recommended and I would say necessary. We visited on Thursday night (of Jazz festival weekend) and were only able to get a table in the bar,... More
