    Had a steak sandwich. Steak was a little tough but overall was a lovely meal. Server was excellent.

    Lunch @ The Carrie in Kells. Beautiful gluten free food. Looks amazing and tastes amazing. Friendly and helpful staff. No rushing the order when sorting out what was gluten free to eat. To start, goats cheese with beetroot, then honey chilli chicken with rice, and to finish hot chocolate cake.

    Went here just before the Christmas holidays and was expecting big things! When entering the building, there was no clear indication whether guests are to be seated or just walk on in to the main restaurant, as you're not greeted by anybody when you walk in. The food was keenly priced and of decent portion size (when it all finally arrived as the chef didn't ensure that all was on my plate before sending it), was presented nicely, the taste was pretty average unfortunately, the soup starter was actually the best dish we had that night. The restaurant itself was very well designed and it gave a cosy and warm feeling which helped with the evening. The waiting staff were friendly enough although some more training would be beneficial for them, the biggest let down of the evening was trying to pay. Once again, it was self-directed as none of the staff let you know the process of how payment was to be made (as many places do this in many different ways). We had to just walk outside to the bar and stand in a queue for 20 mins for the one poor barmaid to figure out what orders people had through slips. This showed up poor management as nobody attempted to take charge of this situation. It would need some improvements across the board here.

    Food is always good, you are not rushed to free up the table and staff are friendly and helpful . They have vegetarian dishes on the menu and in August kids eat free

    Cannot fault the home cooked food with locally sourced ingredients. The staff are so friendly and helpful you cannot help but smile. Would really recommend The Carrie Restaurant if you want to be treated to good food in a beautiful setting. Couldn't resist adding photos of two of the desserts on offer.

    Food excellent and customer service 1st class. However I managed to damage the exhaust on my car on the way out at the main gate, due to a very high hump. I am sure that I am not the first to damage a car on this. Was driving about 5 mph. Turned out to be a very expensive meal. Not happy!

    Great place to eat, inside and outside. Individual pods outside, give perfect protection from the weather for small groups. Food was lovely, well priced, the staff were very pleasant, and nothing was too much trouble. Would definitely go back soon.
