We enjoyed two evening of outstanding dining at the Boat Inn, Oughterard, Ireland recently. It was a by chance choice with the interior of the dining room much nicer than expected from the exterior view. We were so delighted with the meal and service that we returned the next day after a full day of exploring Connemara. The Inn is... More

Just eat in the Boat Inn. Great fresh new look, havn't been in three/four years. Food excellent service great and exceptional value for money. Irish stew outstanding and this from an Irishman who lives for good flavours. This is a landmark example of what good food, service and value can be delivered without the usual catering pre-prepared menu items. Hope... More

My son and I stopped into the Boat Inn today for lunch. The place was quite busy, but the staff were all attentive and friendly. The food came quickly and tasted great.

I visited the Boat Inn yesterday. The Inn is now under new ownership and has been re-vamped. The difference is quite amazing from the sunny attitude of the staff to the completely new bathrooms/lavatories. There is a new chef and the food has also improved. I observed a family group from France eating adjacent to my table - they were... More

Anything that was asked was done without any hassle. The rooms are okay basic but defintely clean and couldnt fault anything there. We... More
