Our group of six dined in Veldons on Saturday night, there was a courtesy bus that picked us up and dropped us home. The food was delicious and good value. A big thank you to Noel and his lovely staff for a great evening.

very funny and lovely atmosphere! the food was nice, also vegetarian options, friendly waiters and local people!

We went here for lunch and it was really good. My husband had the Cod and chips with salad and mushy peas and really enjoyed it. I had a Toasty cheese and bacon sandwich which was delicious. The waitress who served us was very attentive...and helpful. Their apple tart and ice cream is gorgeous. We both enjoyed it. We have been here before and we think it’s a great place to stop for food and refreshments and is near Connemara National Park. The scenery around it is beautiful. We will be back and would recommend it to everyone .All the staff we met were tops.More

I have been here many times and loved Veldons seafarer letterfrack but sadly on my last visit I was very disappointed with the seafood platter. It was a cold dish which was not stated on the menu and when it came out in under 5...minutes. I was disappointed to see it was basically salmon out of a packet and tasteless. The prawns had merry rose sauce with some paprika powder on them. The crab meat had some apple and the salad had tasteless dressing. No effort put into this €29 dish. I didn’t eat the salmon and prawns after a bite. I then give the manager my feedback very politely and having a conversation about the holidays. I was shocked when he took full price of me for the meals and didn’t even offer discount. A place I have many good memories and meals in is ruined now. I run a business and I know from experience that it is very bad business to not compensate the client in some way.More

This spot will forever be cherished in our hearts. My fiancé proposed on a hike atop a rock on the Diamond Hill loop. We came to Veldons immediately afterward to celebrate with oysters and champagne. Upon the staff realizing we were engaged, they were so...genuinely elated for us. You could feel their joy. They made sure our time there was special and honored us by letting us pour a pint of Guinness. We will be back to celebrate an anniversary! Cannot recommend this place enough. The oysters were the best I have had and the staff was the best we’ve encountered in our travels. Much love to you, Veldons!More

Had an amazing late lunch here with super food and happy friendly staff. There was an extensive choice and as we like to eat early we appreciated this. While eating I noticed a local van pull up with containers of fresh fish on ice and...it was brilliant to know that this restaurant mean what they say regarding their local suppliers My husband had pan fried hake with roasted pepper sauce which was freshly cooked and delicious. My scampi was the nicest I've eaten in a while. This is a gem and we will look forward to returning whenever we are the areaMore

We called in here to see if we could get food at 6pm on Bank Holiday Sunday with a party of 5. We were immediately greeted by the very friendly Liam who recognised my husband and I from the lunchtime the day before. On a...busy June Bank holiday weekend this was already impressive. We were then looked after by Olive who couldn't do enough for us and the lovely Liam kept checking in on our table too. The food was very quick to come to our table and the mussels were especially fab. So was the Scampi and the calamari. The very friendly manager took the time to try and greet each table again adding that friendliness that just made the night special. Good music was on in the bar. The only drawback and absoloutely out of the control of the staff were the midges that just kept nipping but this was a reflection of the very intense hot weather unusual for Ireland at this time of the year.More

Stopped at Veldons for lunch before climbing the Diamond (pretty close by so it's a good spot for food or drink before or after visiting the national park). The seating area out front is ideal on a sunny day. The beef burger was disappointing as...it was a little bland but the calamari was excellent.More

We first visited Seafarer’s five years ago on a family visit. We returned in 2019 and this week, on our first trip back since then, we had the pleasure of dinner here two night’s running. We were a large group (10) and the lovely manager...went out of his way to get us a table sorted even though the place was heaving. The food was brilliant both nights - the lamb was delicious, the burgers divine. The Cajun chicken is good and the lamb stew is also very tasty. Service was friendly and as quick as could be managed on very busy nights. The bills were very reasonable. We will definitely return next time we are back.More

The calamari was not great, the mussels and oysters were incredible. The food overall was good, the atmosphere was excellent! Would come back again!

Went to veldons after an 80km cycle in May 27th at 8:30pm. 2 couples and we had no reservation, Noel the manager sorted us out even though the restaurant was packed , he got us a seat and sent Molly over to take our food...order, top class restaurant and staff are very helpful & friendly, food was delicious and great atmosphere , 10/10 I would highly recommend Veldons .we went to the restaurant across the road before veldons and they made no accommodation for us even though they had a few spare tables. I couldn't thank Noel enough for accommodating us as we were very Hungry ! P.McGeeMore

Stopped by for lunch before hiking up Diamond Hill. I liked the vibe in this maritime-themed pub, and the food was pretty good. My husband thought his lamb stew was a little bland, but I really liked the seafood chowder. It was super thick and...creamy, full of seafood, and really hit the spot on a rainy day. Our waiter was lovely!More
