The young staff can be rude and unfriendly, as I experienced when I found something in my glass of Coke. The server did not apologize and simply replaced the glass without acknowledging the error. I had to ask for a new can of Coke as well, as most of it had been poured into the contaminated glass. Before Christmas, the restaurant struggled to handle lunch orders efficiently, and the water tasted off, indicating it may not be filtered. Service can be slow, so be cautious when dining here. Additionally, be wary of your change if Paddy or Bridie are not assisting with payment, as they may assume any leftover amount is a tip, which I find cheeky. Regardless of the value, change should always be returned to the customer unless stated otherwise.

We we 're passing and dropped in at 7.30 but couldn 't get anything to eat. Make hay while the sun shines. Long term sustainability depends on this. Foynes was Closed way too early on a beautiful sunny Sunday evening. The Foynes Inn was open, but only for drinks.
