Achill Cliff House

This review is for a restaurant that is part of a local hotel on Achill island.
We booked in advance for 30 people and showed up with extra but the staff had no problem accommodating this. on arrival we waited in the reception of the hotel for a few minutes while they sorted out tables, we took this time to look over the menus and by the time we were all sat we pretty much knew what we wanted. we had three friendly waitress’s serve us, they were efficient and had no problem making alterations to meals to suite a few different food allergies and a strict vegetarian. there was no delay with ordering or getting our food although there was a delay with the drinks at our table. otherwise the waitresses were great at their jobs.
the food was very nice, very well presented, good portion control and very tasty. I had the Pollock which was so fresh and flavoursome. my waitress even pointed out the window to the sea a few meters away when I ordered and said ‘it was caught right there this morning’. everyone at my table complimented their meal. all three types of fish, the beef, chicken, lamb and vegetarian option were all well received with no complaints that I heard of. our deserts were also loved! with plenty of options all of which were freshly home made.
our only issue was when the bills came. they were very good to accommodate us by billing each of our three tables separately but on our table we were overcharged by quite a bit. on pointing it out they realised they hadn’t cleared the bill from the meal before us on the till. but this was quickly rectified and overall we were so pleased that they got a very decent tip!
I would highly recommend this restaurant to eat in you are ever visiting Achill Island.
