The barman took all the good out of what would have been a very pleasant visit. We were just calling in to have Sunday lunch and should have walked out from the moment we walked in the door - this middle aged barman with greased back hair was rude, sarcastic and unwelcoming. He behaved as if he owned the place and treated us as though we were a huge inconvenience to him (which is surprising as the place was almost empty in what should be prime time on for Sunday dinner time). Would have stayed for drinks but left as soon as we ate our poorly prepared food due to the poor treatment we received from this one member of staff

I can safely say it was the worst service we ever experienced. The bar man was very rude, sarcastic and ignorant. Food was to a poor standard, the pizza was not freshly made. Unaccommodating and unhelpful staff, they never checked in on the table once after serving the food.

Literally the worst pizza I’ve ever had in my life with terrible service on the side. The pizza was definitely a frozen one. Dirty glasses and all!

We only spent one night in Kilkenny and we were so glad we chose here for food and drinks. The food was delicious and the cocktails and beer were superb. The staff were very friendly too and it’s definitely worth a visit if you are in Kilkenny. Will definitely be back!

I’ve visited a few times since the reopening and it’s great to be back inside the doors !! Food , although the menu is smaller not surprisingly, and service is still excellent as always !! I missed the ever welcoming Karina on each occasion but John , Anna and Alan were very accommodating and welcoming !! This industry has had a tough 18 months and are still running on reduced hours but the crew in Matt’s are doing a great job under the circumstances. Well done one and all !!
