Perfect food, great atmosphere, irish folk musician every day, very nice owners, place you must visit. :)

Our family of 7 adults had an enjoyable lunch here. It was very busy and most tables taken. However, we sat in the corner table with lots of history on the walls. We had two vegans, one vegetarian and the rest "normal" eaters and were...all well catered for. Enjoyed our meals and the ambiance.More

Unfortunately we did not eat here as it was too windy to eat outside. It poured rain when we were there and they are quite happy to leave us and our small dog out in it even though the place was empty. The staff were...really condescending also. Seem to prefer localsMore

Lovely atmosphere, place was pretty packed at 3 on a Saturday afternoon. But they found us q really nice seat, with 3 young children its nice to be out of the way in a restaurant. Food was good. Children had kids portions of fish fingers...and chips, it went down well. My wife had the chowder and was very happy with it. I had deep fried fish it was good not amazing. And the portion could have been bigger. Got 2 desserts to share and they were both excellent. The best thing about the place was the service. No hanging around, very little waiting time. Overall, absolutely recommend this place for lunchMore

Went to see Padraig Jack's 'Making Sand' show last night and really enjoyed it. The marquee beside the pub is small and cosy and made for a great intimate atmosphere. Some original songs, a few cover versions and loads of interesting and funny stories about...his life and the island. €15, tickets on the door or online. Show was from 8:30pm until just after 10pm. A very enjoyable evening - 100% recommend! 😃More

Had walked for about 2 hours on the Island on a beautiful sunny day when we came across the oasis that is Joe Watty's. Lovely food, pleasant efficient staff and clean and tidy premises. Just rounded off the evening nicely, hats off to Joe..!!

Good system for the table waiting list. Perfect bar menu, wonderful friendly feeling and very good live music.

Visited this pub for drinks with two kids. Were made to feel unwelcome. Planned to eat here but changed my mind based on the reception we got.

Visited here with my husband. The only positives I can say were the host who was very nice and the 2 men playing music were brilliant. However the food was disgraceful, I ordered the goats cheese salad, €18.90 and my husband had the fish of...the day and chips, hake €19.90. The portions were tiny, no presentation, just completely taking advantage of tourists. While the goats cheese itself was lovely, the salad was big lumps of peppers, ordinary salad tomatoes and lettuce. The chips we got were the cheapest of chips, awful. No wonder we are known as rip of Ireland. I have no problem paying expensive prices for food, but give great food. On speaking to locals while we were out elsewhere this place is known for this. We have been reccomended by several locals to try The Bar restaurant.More

We ordered 3 fish n chips, the portions were so small and fish was not fresh. The 3 portions of chips were not enough for 1 person and don't get me started about the mushy peas, there was about a tablespoon if even! How anyone...could charge €20 per head, they should be ashamed of themselves! Definitely won't be back there.More

Very impersonal.. limited menu, staff not knowledgeable.. wouldn't rate at all unfortunately.. wouldn't recommendMore

My husband and I visited Joe Wattys a number of times recently during a holiday on the Aran islands . Great atmosphere and friendly staff. They serve very good Guinness along with good food. There is also live music every night which adds to the...atmosphere. Definitely a place to rerun to.More
