O’Connor’s Seafood Restaurant
The tank full of lobsters and the three wooden yachts in the window give the game away – award-winning O’Connor’s offers Bantry seafood at its posh best. It’s an exquisite experience and one to savour.

Hackett's
The town's social hub, Hackett's rises above the norm with a creative pub menu of organic dishes prepared from scratch. Black-and-white photos and tin signs adorn the pub's crooked walls and there's a mishmash of old kitchen tables and benches on the worn stone floor. It's a democratic place, where swells mingle with crusty locals inside or out front on the sunny benches.

Organico
The milk in the organic latte here is fairtrade – just one example of the green ethos prevalent throughout this very attractive bakery-deli-cafe. Enjoy fine baked goods throughout the day; at lunch there's an array of daily specials. The soups are hearty and fresh, the salads innovative. Everything is meat-free but not dairy-free: cheese lovers, enjoy!

Fish Kitchen
This outstanding little restaurant above a fish shop does seafood to perfection, from the local oysters (served with lemon and tabasco sauce) to a particularly fine dish of pan-seared scallops. But if for some reason you don't fancy sea fare, it does a juicy steak too. Friendly, unfussy and absolutely delicious.

Waterside Inn
The dark interior is a bit of a throwback to the ’70s, but locals love this place and changes might cause a revolution. The menu makes a tour through local meat and seafood, many used in timeless preparations. If you shrink at the thought of another shrimp, have the well-marbled rib-eye steak.

Snug Bar
The aptly named Snug is a cocoon of interesting nooks and crannies, with enamel advertising signs on the walls and one table wrapped around a full-grown tree inside. Simple bar meals (soups, lasagne and the like) are served at lunch with more ambitious seafood and steaks on the menu at night.

Newman's West
This sailor-filled wine bar (with many good choices by the glass) and art gallery serves soup and salads and enormous chunky sandwiches filled with local cheese and salami. The daily Western Seaboard specials might include Bantry Bay mussels and chowder. The original pub, TJ Newman's, is a charmer.

Brick Oven
Generally rammed to the gills, this is a family favourite thanks to its cunningly divided menu and chirpy atmosphere. Kids can pig out on pizza, while their discerning parents feast on more adult fare such as sun-dried tomato risotto and roast monkfish.
