This place is punching WAYYY above its weight. Made a spur of the moment stop here as I was ravished after hiking, figured I’d pop in here and grab a quick lunch, figured it was just a local mom and pop shop but man do they crush it. Service was fantastic, and my waiter was super cool and recommended the burger which definitely paid off.

Lovely restaurant in Sneem, right next to the bridge and water. The nice views and light from the big windows along the water make the atmosphere really welcoming and comfortable. Menu has great options, and they have a great kid's menu. Service staff were very pleasant and service was quick.

This spot was recommended to us when doing the Ring of Kerry on a rainy day. We went with the two specials of the day and they did not disappoint! Everything was scrumptious and seasoned perfectly. My mom even ate all the brussel sprouts, which she usually avoids, after I convinced her they were the best I've had. You've made her a believer they can be delicious The staff was very attentive and kind. The atmosphere was all around lovely to warm ourselves up in on a cold and rainy day.

So nice we ate here twice! We got into Sneem just late in the day and had originally planned to go to a sea food spot further down the Ring of Kerry. Nope, sold out. We then checked three other places. Nope. Drove back to Sneem and it was getting late so we "settled" for the Bridge Cafe & Bistro. Boy did we feel stupid for not starting here! The food was amazing. Probably the best dinner we had on our entire 11 day trip. The service was as good as the food - super friendly and super efficient. Thats how we found out they did breakfast too and that we needed to get there early before Mass was over. Before we left I got a desert to go - apple almond tart. It was a perfect topper for the meal. The next morning we were first in the door for breakfast. Excellent coffee and great food. SO got avocado toast with eggs. Im from California. I know avocado toast. This was excellent avocado toast. There are places on Ring of Kerry that have better PR. No way they have better food. Eat here.

The most delicious sandwiches and lunch stop on the ring of Kerry. We were lucky to have Nicole as a waitress, she told us more about the town, was quick with service and extremely welcoming, which isn’t always true in a small town that sees hundreds of thousands of visitors. We enjoyed delicious specialty lattes and don’t miss any of their sandwiches. The restaurant is located right next to the bridge and you can hear the wash, rushing water in the background And there is a great view of the rock-faced mountains in the background. The price point is perfect for a lunch stop I’m assuming if you stop on a bus tour or if you’re driving through that this would be a good place for you to eat it was quick and there’s outdoor seating if you wish.
