Mannion's - Clifden

This place was a bit disappointing. Inviting look pub from outside with the picnic benches. Trying be a restaurant on inside.The whole place was empty asked the waitress for window seat and was told everything booked out only one table left!Probably should have turned around then and there but as I was already in continued on. Led to another table crammed beside another family (only other people there) at back of restaurant. We must have been there for an hour and a half at least. None else arrived in. Only when we got the bill did someone else come in and sit at window seat. Rest of restaurant still empty. Like even if you have bookings you can always ask for the table to be back at a certain time like every other restaurant does. Was never asked this.As for the food ordered the burger. Tasted and looked like a pre made musgrave burger with the solid almost jelly consistency patty. Starving so ate it anyway. Would have expected a nice homemade burger for €16. Everyones else food seemed fine so maybe it was just the burger but not much selection on the menu anyway.

Staff very personal. Eating a little lustre, not in season and a little slow on service, but oysters big and succulent. They accidentally overcharged us 70 euros when half dozen oysters were added as 6 half dozen oysters but was quickly discontinued.

Lovely staff, perfect welcome and delicious cuisine! we became regular after 1 day

Very very poor service waited 30 minutes just to be served and another 20 minutes for the food. People around me had been served and eaten before I even got my food. If I had a different accent, I would have served myself like everyone else. When. Food came I was shocked at the amount of chips for €16 euros would have been better to go to Supermacs. Also not looking for covid certs.

Paid €8 for calamari which consisted of 3 rings and a bit of salad. **** rip off. They came out so fast. I say they were the frozen ones from Lidl. Pizza was nice though.
