Excellent service and fantastic drinks. Enjoyed watching a college football game on their big screen in the early evening. Returned later to find it transformed into a lively dance spot. Very cool!

I dined at Scruffy's tonight, and the bartender, Amy, was exceptionally friendly. Her service was outstanding, truly top-notch!

Amy, the bartender, and Sidney, the mixologist, were incredible. Together with the rest of the team, they delivered outstanding service and crafted wonderful cocktails. The music selection was equally impressive.

The bar staff at this restaurant are incredibly rude! When I asked for a pint of Heineken, the bartender said he needed to change the barrel. I told him I was willing to wait. However, he proceeded to pour Coors beer into a Heineken glass and give it to me. When I pointed out the mistake, he brushed it off by saying that all lagers are the same.

Tonight, I wanted something light to eat. Tried the burrito bowl which comes with cold rice, cold chicken and cold little tortilla chips. Not good with the spicy topping. Tasteless.

They make a great cocktail, great friendly staff spotlessly clean and tidy.

The band was good and the service was good. The serving staff deserves no blame. The food was atrocious, the worst food we've had in Ireland to date. Significantly worse than McDonald's. The drinks were great and the bar team was excellent!

To begin, we went here at the end of the night of St. Patrick's Day to keep an eye on this. The feeling of the place is already in the name, it felt quite scruffy and there were a few people who fell around the place. Not bad and the staff was great. Not much to say, but probably wouldn't go back because there are so many nicer bars in Killarney. But all in all not a terrible place, could have been the hectic night we went.

Great place for music and solo. Large bar

Scruffy's offers fantastic cocktails, a friendly and attentive staff, and an impeccably clean and tidy environment. Their menu has a great variety to choose from, making it a wonderful dining experience.

The food and service were disappointing, but the late bar was enjoyable.

Absolutely love this place! Fantastic food, great music, and a brilliant atmosphere. If you’re in Killarney, you have to visit at least once—you won’t regret it.
