Experienced attentive staff, great seafood, especially the hake, and huge vegetable side portions. For a special night out, this is where we head. More

Had a wonderful meal in Aherne's last week. We all enjoyed our Cod, Prawns & Plaice immensely...The mash and vegetables were excellent too! I got the sauce on the side which was great as you could really taste the food (and the sauce wasn't the best anyway. ) Shared one dessert - an excellent Bread & Butter Pudding - and... More

Another excellent seafood meal from Ahernes. This family run business operating now for many decades has not lost its touch. Last week we had their barfood menue of monkfish with a green sidesalad accompanied with a top range house Sancerre. The fish was cooked to perfection in a gererous portion.Their locally sourced prawns have to be the best in the... More

I ate in Ahernes last weekend with my husband and my parents. We decided to try it, as it looked a step above the pubs and Italians that seem to abound in Youghal. When we first went in, we were seated in the main restaurant, but we asked if we could go to the bar instead as A) there was... More

We had a really good seafood dinner here, featuring fresh lobster, fresh monkfish and a great overall menu. We had excellent service from Anne too. We highly recommend it for a nice experience for travel-weary foodies. Pricey but worth every penny, we paid about 24 Eu per person. More

The restaurant was recommended by the receptionist in Gabriel's House in Cork where we stayed. It is about 30minutes drive from Cork to Youghal. It is a small fishing village and the restaurant as I was told has been there like..forever. The waitress was friendly,helpful and accommodating. she recommended all what we should order and we were not disappointed to... More

We took our inlaws and a visiting relative here for lunch last Sunday. We have stayed and eaten in a few Bluebook establishments so trusted that this would also prove to be a good choice. We booked a table for 3pm (in the bar as the restaurant was closed). When we arrived, we realised we needn't have bothered, there was... More

We recently stopped off in Youghal for a bite of lunch and discovered probably one of the best seafood restaurants in Cork. We had read about Ahearnes in the Blue Book so decided to give it a try and we weren't disappointed. I had the freshest crab salad I've ever tasted whilst my wife was extremely complimentary about her open... More
