Last week upon arrival, I stumbled into the alley where this “hidden gem” is located. Unfortunately, it was at a time when there was no room left. No worries. I went for a nice walk and tried again a week later upon returning to Killarney. A little earlier, so kind of a private meal ; I had the fried shrimp and the lamb shank. Absolutely delicious. Washed it down with a glass of wine and finished with a lemon/dingle gin-style cheesecake. Yummy. Friendly service too.

My fiancé and I were vacationing in Killarney for two nights and were looking for a restaurant with both plant-based options and traditional Irish cuisine. We Googled and landed on this amazing place. Tucked away in an adorable street off a happening main road downtown, Stonechat restaurant offered us a charming private booth, without a reservation, in a friendly and hospitable manner. I ordered the plant-based burger, and my better half ordered the seafood chowder and sea bass. This was the best food we had in our entire week all over Ireland. We ate there both nights because the food was so good and the atmosphere so charming. We had more glasses of wine than we probably should have because we didn’t want to leave. The staff is so friendly and knowledgeable that they even took the time to write down hiking recommendations. The Stonechat restaurant is a must visit in Killarney. You will regret it if you don’t experience it!

Why I love this place comes down to the people. The food is amazing and people have already talked about that (so good) .. but everyone is so helpful and friendly (I was taken aback). Shout out to Charlotte, Dermot, Rachel, Viola Katerina
