About this experience

Restaurants & Dining in Kilmurvey is the collective term for the eateries and pubs on the western side of Inishmore, the largest of the Aran Islands. This dining scene centres on a handful of family-run establishments serving seafood, Irish stew, and soda bread to visitors exploring the island's stone forts and cliffs. Meals here rely on local ingredients, with crab and lobster landed at the nearby pier and lamb grazed on the island's limestone pastures.

What to expect

Sample a bowl of chowder made with fish caught off the Aran coast, served with brown bread in a pub that has operated for over a century.
Order a pint of stout alongside a plate of smoked mackerel or boxty, with most kitchens open from noon to 9pm during the summer season.
Watch the chef shuck oysters or grill a whole lobster at the counter in the two seafood-focused restaurants, each seating fewer than 30 diners.
Find a menu that changes daily based on the morning's catch, with crab claws and mussels appearing when the boats come in.
Sit in a stone-walled dining room with turf fire, where tables are shared with hikers and cyclists following the island's walking trails.
Suitable for solo travellers and small groups, with most mains priced between €12 and €22 and no booking required outside July and August.
