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.

Top tier food, as good as anywhere you will get in Ireland. My daughter had the fillet steak which was excellent and the wife and i had the featherblade which came with mash and veg. Interestingly it was the first time we had tried celeriac...and it was delicious. Well done all involved.More

Amazing from start to finish! Arrived on a Sunday afternoon and immediately loved the vibe and atmosphere.. Some people were eating at their tables in the lounge part, we were shown to a table for two towards the back of the lounge which was obviously...the restaurant and it was perfect.. Felt private but still within the atmosphere of the busy pub. Every staff member was so friendly and helpful. Menu seemed smaller than what I had seen online but maybe that was a Sunday menu. We both ordered starters… huge portions and delicious. Mains were really tasty and again portions were plentiful. Great prices for the quality of service, food and ambiance and I will definitely be returning.More

We didn't want desert as we were to full and we were given...a free drink instead which was such a lovely gesture. The staff are so friendly and helpful, the atmosphere is great and the food is unbelievable 👌 😍 cannot wait to go back for another mealMore

As always, excellent food and service. We had a big family gathering including messy kids but the staff just accommodated us without even blinking. Tia, Emily and the men treated us wonderfully. Always a pleasure.

My 23 year old Daughter and myself spent a lovely Friday evening together in Harrigan's. This was my first time there and it didn't disappoint. The venue is beautiful. Lots of space, high ceilings and a very impressive Bar. We were seated in a lovely...area and were served by very nice and friendly staff. The food was fantastic ! We both ordered starters, mains and desert which were delicious, great portion sizes and piping hot and fresh. I had the Fish and chips for main and the mushy peas on the side were so tasty. My daughter really enjoyed the chicken wings and a cocktail (Raspberry Mojito) that was served in a good size glass and garnished so beautifully and reasonably priced for a large cocktail. I have to say I am definitely looking forward to going back again soon. Thank you Harrigans staff.More
