    Fabulous local atmosphere, fantastic service and delicious food! We had the brie starter and then fish & chips all around—loved it all! Great place for a bite & a pint after visiting the Kerry Cliffs.

    We stopped in during the off-season - late February - so it was quiet. A beautiful town, and finding this place open for lunch on a Friday was fantastic. Delicious fresh seafood. Great hospitaity as well. Highly recommend.

    Warm, welcoming, and delicious. If you are staying near or in Portmagee I am jealous because you can eat here multiple times. If you are just driving through then you should stop for a pint and a bite. We shared the seafood platter and it was wonderful all around but the smoked salmon was beyond belief. Such a special experience.

    Stayed in Portmagee for 2 nights and ate here both nights. That's very rare - I rarely go back to the same restaurant. This place is excellent. I initially had a turbot fillet and the following night a superb seafood platter. All beautifully cooked and very fresh. Recommended.

    An "old fashioned" pub with restaurant next door which served the BEST food I've had in ages. The calimari was out of this world. We had our dogs with us and were able to sit outside.

    Best spot for seafood in South Kerry. Seafood platter is off the charts good and really good value. If the weather is good the benchs outside are heaven. Staff are amazing. Be warned it gets busy in Summer, but worth the wait

    Possibly the greatest little bar in Ireland. The staff and local patrons are the responsible custodians of a truly traditional and unique corner of this island. The seafood is mighty, the stout is similar and Mags is the matriarch that ever mariner town needs - equal parts a sweetheart and force to be reckoned with.

    Excellent seafood platter. The chowder is like a seafood stew. Very tasty. I would have liked some shell fish in the chowder. That's my only criticism. Stunning sunset view overlooking Valentia Island.

    Fabulous Seafood!! This is a great authentic seafood restaurant and bar. If you like seafood and casual dining, then this is the place to be when visiting Portmagee. The sharing seafood platter is delicious and great value too. The pint of Guinness is like cream... what's not to like! I'll definitely be returning to Fisherman's Bar & Skellig Restaurant the next time I'm in Portmagee!.... 5 stars!

    This is a very short drive from Ring of Kerry into Portmagee. Excellent food and service.From there you are able to get onto Skellig Ring. My personal opinion is that this is a beautiful drive. Be warned, this is a very narrow road.

    Location is heavenly.The staff are relly good, they are so good that when my 5 year old son forgot his shoes they posted them to us and wouldn't accept payment for postage.The food is amazing the best seafood I have eaten in a very long time. My children loved the fish and chips. I had garlic prawns as a starter and they were so fresh and cooked to perfection. I'd highly recommend the seafood platter but it is a very big plate of food best had after a long walk or cycle.It is perfectly priced and an all round wonderful experience. Thanks to management and staff. Looking forward to our next visit already.

    My family and I went to the Fisherman's bar after our visit to Skellig Michael. We were quickly seated and served. They had a good selection of beers and cider on tap and lots of great daily specials. My father and I got a seafood platter to share which was unbelievably good. If you love seafood you have to do it ! They give you everything they have seafood related. It was over enough food!!! The smoked salmon was the best smoked salmon I have ever had. They include other seafood such as crab legs, shrimp, stuffed mussels, lobster, fish, chips, and salad . My wife got the cottage pie special and said it was very good! Do yourself a favor and go to the fishermans bar.

    Fantastic fresh fish. It is really a fisherman' bar. Traditional and only local fish. Portions are huge and the price reflect the quality. Do not expect a restaurant service it is basic but perfectly match with the expectation of a local place with local food. Keep up the great work

    Do yourself a favor, drive the Ring of Kerry clockwise. You'll avoid being stuck behind a caravan of buses and will have arrived in Skellige at just the right time to enjoy a lunch at Fisherman's Bar. This quaint eatery serves up some seriously fresh fish; you can't mistake it when you walk in and you get the aroma of your favorite fish monger or market when you walk in through the bar area. We had a shared seafood platter and the smoked salmon. They were out of the cold smoked salmon but the cooks barbecued and smoked some salmon warm for us and it was EXCELLENT. The shared seafood platter had a great selection fresh fried fish, garlic baked crab claws, and perfectly cooked, tender prawns, to name just a few of the items on the platter. This was probably our favorite spot for seafood in our entire trip to Ireland. Friendly people, great environment, amazing food.

    This place is fantastic. All of the food (most of us ordered seafood) was delicious and fresh. Also, we had some food allergies in our group and the chef made sure to prepare each dish according to each person's allergies (and was more than willing to prepare any dish in accordance with any allergy). Would absolutely recommend this place.

    Great dinner place at a small town off Skellig. When we were there, I think that it was Monk-Fish season. Per the photo, we ordered a Seafood Platter (for 2) and a "Catch of the Day". Both were served with Monk-Fish. The portions were big and were served with Bread, Salad and Chips(aka Fries) and we could not finish it. Another good thing about this Bar & Restaurant is that the seating of Bar is kind of separated from the restaurant. You will not experience the rowdiness from the bar if you are bringing your family to this place just for dinner. 🙂 The MUST-TRY (which I will go back for if I'm back at Portmagee): Crab Claws and it's related dishes

Wait staff was very friendly. Prices were average: dinner and drinks about €60. Check out the Kerry Cliffs while you're in the area.

    Don't confuse this with a simple pub meal. Although there is an adjoining bar, this is probably more a seafood restaurant than a place for pub meals. The service was attentive and efficient. As befitting a restaurant the waiter was familiar with the dishes and style. Not a huge menu, but the seafood is all local catch.

In the 2 weeks we spent in Ireland and Scotland, it was our favorite fish and chips that we had. We also tasted a local cider which was excellent. Highly recommend!
