This was exactly the sort of place you hope to stumble across on a road trip when the weather has other ideas. It was cold, a bit rainy, and we were travelling with another family and three children between us, so by the time we arrived, a warm table and a good lunch was much needed.
Thankfully, this place had everything we needed. It felt like a little haven, with lovely service, a cosy atmosphere, and simple food done really well.
The seafood chowder was one of the best I’ve had, rich, comforting and full of flavour without being heavy. The monkfish on the menu of the day was also lovely, properly cooked and generous enough to feel like a treat on a grey afternoon. The children were equally happy, which is never something to take for granted, finding their favourites in burgers and fish and chips, and every plate that came out was genuinely delicious.
By the end of lunch, everyone was warm, full, and in much better spirits than when we came in. Honestly, we could not have asked for more.
A really lovely stop, and one I’d happily recommend to families passing through Westport looking for somewhere welcoming, relaxed, and seriously good for lunch.
Thank you for your kind words
