Perfect spot that had everything you wanted or needed for a hearty lunch while driving the Ring of Kerry. The seafood chowder and cauliflower soup were a hit.

Yes, with all the covid restrictions and all that, we were almost afraid to visit the Fertha bar & restaurant but we needn't have worried. Every care was taken of... read more the customers and we had a very nice meal . Good wholesome food, a nice bottle of wine, friendly service - what more could you ask! Probably best to ring up and book a table. We didn't but we were lucky and we got the last table!

Came here for dinner one evening and were seated quickly. The young waitress was a friendly blond lady who patiently answered our questions about their menu and whiskey in the... read more area. She provided attentive service without hovering. She spared a few minutes to chat with us through the meal, and made us feel welcomed. She told us about the spring well that is inside the restaurant and took us to it to see.
The food was quite good. Very well seasoned, prepared, and presented. Service was prompt but not rushed. The atmosphere seemed close, friendly, and very laid-back. People were having discussions, but the noise level was not deafening; you could HAVE a conversation. It felt comfortable, almost like the place belonged to someone we knew personally. This was one of my favorite restaurants on the entire 2-week trip.

Food was absolutely gorgeous but the customer service left much to be desired. We arrived about ten mins early as we’d an early booking and we knew there’d be a... read more push to turnover the table after us. We weren’t even there 80 mins and the woman in charge made it very clear that she wanted us out to turnover the table for another booking... we had only just received the dessert menu when she announced to the whole room that we needed to be out - it was embarrassing to be honest as other customers heard it. We only had one course so if there was a delay, it was down to the slow service. Only three people working a full bar, definitely should have been managed better. Left a huge bill there only to be kicked out well ahead of the 105 mins.
Very disappointing.

My friend and me were lucky enough to stumble across this little gem of a place whilst touring Ireland.
Situated in the Ring of Kerry, I can highly recommend it... read more for delicious food, great service, reasonable prices and friendly atmosphere.
In fact, we were so impressed, we enjoyed our evening meal there two consecutive nights, before continuing on our journey!
Our waitress/bar person, Geraldine, was so friendly, full of fun, and joined in our banter!
Nothing was too much trouble, and we were made to feel at home!
If you’re ever in the area, give it a go - you won’t be disappointed!
I’ll definitely revisit if I ever pass that way again.
