Food & Drink in Clare
Burren Smokehouse's organic smoked salmon, seafood in Doolin's music pubs, and the Burren's own lamb and farmhouse cheeses — Clare's food identity, beyond the Cliffs of Moher gift shop.
Food & Drink
Where to eat and drink well — from long-standing local favourites to newer spots worth seeking out.
Our Food & Drink in Dublin guide, a traditional pubs roundup, the food markets worth seeking out, and a wider look at traditional Irish food beyond the capital — plus Cork, Galway, Kerry, Clare and Wicklow now that we've researched those properly too. We'll add other counties the same way, rather than listing restaurants we haven't verified.
Food & Drink in Cork
Spiced beef at the English Market, drisheen and tripe at the Farmgate Café, and a brewery built on the site of a 13th-century monastery — Cork's food and drink culture, beyond just walking through the market.
Food & Drink in Galway
Native Galway Bay oysters, a fish and chip shop run by the same family since 1902, and a pub pouring pints since 1894 — Galway's food and drink culture, beyond the Latin Quarter's buskers.
Food & Drink in Kerry
A brewery and distillery on the Ring of Kerry road, Kerry's own toffee, and the coastal seafood that shows up on menus all over Killarney.
Food & Drink in Wicklow
Avoca's cafés and food market, running on a mill dating to 1723, and Powerscourt's whiskey distillery pairing Wicklow cheese with its own spirits.
