We were in Dingle recently and had our lunch in a local pub/restaurant. Both Paul’s and Geaneys are advertised as names on the building but i think it is known as Geaneys pub. It is also advertised as a steakhouse. There was a few people sitting by the bar and we chose a table up in an enclosed area. We were given our menus by the less than enthusiastic waitress who didn’t utter a word to us bar asking us our order. I didn’t have a pint due to the fact that i had to drive home following lunch. The food was only average but was reasonably priced by Dingle standards. There are a vast amounts of pubs in this town and i would head some where else for a drink if given the choice. There were people playing on their pool table and a few more people came in for something to eat after us.
The toilets are a bit of a trek. They appeared to be clean but had a bad smell. They were very fine overall. We were a bit limited in our choice of places to eat because it is off peak in Dingle. A lot of the restaurants had signs up saying ‘happy new year, see you in Febuary’!
Toilet rating: &/10
Food rating: 6/10
Overall rating: 7/10
Final comment: Geaneys appeared to be more of a restaurant than a pub. It may be a great place to head at night.
You missed the real gem in Dingle for food during the Day. I live in Tralee but am in Dingle at least once a week. Goats St cafe, despite the name, has food that beats the Half-door and the ChartHouse. It is unreal. I hate to even mention it in case it gets too busy but credit due where credit’s due.
Thanks for the tips. I’l keep them in mind on my next trip to Dingle!
I disagree with your ‘review’ of pauls. Was only there last week had a tasty Tomato Soup and a Wrap…it was busy clean and reasonable…worth a visit.
You must have caught them on a bad day. I eat in there every now and then, I find it friendly and helpful. They did Steak and chips for me one day during the winter, an hour before the kitchen was open. You don’t get that often these days. I love The Goat Street Cafe as well, great food!
