Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

I've used their catering service on numerous occasions over the years. From the initial phone call to the day of the event I cannot fault them. The service is always efficient and impeccable. The food has never disappointed and is consistent. They also accommodate any...dietary requirements and requests when they can. If you're looking for a caterer I cannot recommend them enough.More

Took Mam to Bobby's for Mother's Day. They were super busy but it didn't affect the level of service. The staff the food the drinks were all top notch couldn't fault a thing. Also the best spot to watch the six nations final. The atmosphere...in this place was incredible. Will definitely be back.More

We brought my parents out for their birthdays last month and had a wonderful evening. Dinner was lovely, Mam had the duck and said it was the best she's had. The rest of the table had steaks and were all very happy with them. The...staff even brought my parents desserts out on plates that had happy birthday written on them and sang happy birthday. It was such a nice touch, it made the celebration even better. Thanks so much to all the staff, Alex and Jeff especially for making our parents birthdays even more special.More

We brought our Mam her for Mother's day. We had booked table earlier in the week with a lovely girl Mandy who was extremely helpful. The bar was very bust but all the staff were extremely welcoming and nothing was too much for them. Food...didn't take too long even though they were very busy and even though we had a couple of people in our group that had special requests every dish came with exact requests which was fantastic! I cannot commend the staff who were here for Mother's day they really made it special. Will defo be back WELL DONE TO ALL AT BOBBY BYRNES!More

I was very disappointed went for a meal with friends to celebrate my birthday the food was very poor i ordered fish and chips the chips were burnt. I spoke to the manager his excuse was the oil needed to be changed and they were...very busy he spoke quiet loud and i felt this was the worst excuse he could have made not acceptable at all. My friend order steak sandwich and her steak was cold we had to send it back they brought out another which wasnt much better slightly warm she didnt eat it. Another friend ordered a bang bang chicken with noodle dish this was the worst meal i have ever seen served in a restaurant the chicken pieces were rock hard totally dry tasteless and the noodles were dry sticky mess in the middle of the plate very poor . Overall our meals were very poor and i would not recommend and will not be returning to the establishment for food. Its a real shame because through the years enjoyed dining in bobby byrnes. Finally the manager was very loud and overpowering when he asked our opinion on how the food was we gave him honest criticism dont ask if you cant handle the truth.More

My husband (a Limerick local) and I hosted our Wedding Day After celebration at Bobby Byrnes in April 2022. Robert & Fiona Byrnes pulled out ALL of stops for us, helping us to customize our finger food menus, and choose a space in the pub...to host a group of 70+ people. Some of the highlights included the sandwiches, trad band (hired separate to Bobby's) and caring/attentive hospitality. Many of our guests were coming from the USA and got to experience their very first trad music session in the warm, cozy, and welcoming ambiance of the pub - a memory many said they would never forget! Having our Day Afters at Bobby's was affordable, and seamlessly organized, but the memories we (and everyone else in attendance) have from our evening in Bobby Byrne's are priceless! See you when we come back to visit Limerick - we will be coming straight to Bobby's from the airport!More

I had the most awful,tasteless chicken burger in Bobby's today.It had the texture of a gelatinous lump of gunge.Never have I had "Chicken" that was more like soft solid ,spice flavoured ,cheap tasteless rubbish in my life.They should be ashamed to serve this to humans.It...most have been bought for about 20 cent ;if a chicken breast in the most supermarkets cost about a euro.TAKE IT OFF THE MENU.!!!!!. In contrast the lamb my wife had was very nice ,but the veg was cold.More

Came here on two occasions both for Sunday Dinner. Both times we couldn't fault anything. The food was amazing along side the service. Shane was our server the second time and he went out of his way to make sure everything was OK for us....We are mad to bring our parents here but unfortunately we couldn't get a table to suit the date and time we wanted. ( a good complaint for them) Definitely will be our go to for a Sunday Roast in LimerickMore
