Called in today for lunch with my husband and daughter in law Husband got steak sandwich ยฃ21 . Disappointed when steak came with a few chips and 3 onion rings. No garnish. I had pork dinner, OK, but very hard lumps of stuffing and could have been hotter. Staff where lovely I have to say. Definitely wouldn't be rushing back.

I have been going to Rice's for years, it is the most consistently good restaurants around. Service is excellent and it has the best steak sandwich money can buy. Although it should come with mushrooms and or tomatoes. Deserts are delicious and kids meals. Starters have got expensive.

Call at Rice's following a guide walk of the village by the historical society. The staff were very friendly. I had my grandson with me who cried when he spilt his juice, the barman came straight over cleaned up the spill and got him some more juice. I wasn't very hungry and wanted a lite bite, the staff were very accommodating and offered me a child portion.

We shared a super tasty pizza (The grumpy goats), the pizza dough was roasted and served just at the best time. Additionally I had a fish n chips, I loved the way they chopped potatoes ๐คฉ๐คฉ๐คฉ it made the chips 10/10. And the most impressive one was my expresso martini, the bartender made it and dressed it to a high quality drink, almost like took it out for from a picture of a cocktail bible. And yeah, usually I had my camera hd the meal first, but all these were too good tonight, so that I forgot the camera aside ๐. The best way for whoever read this is to walk in and order anyway.

Disappointing, ordered the lasagne and it come with a hair, then got another and it was burnt and real hard round the sides, and it was much smaller. Another meal that we order was the main beef bruschetta, very poor serving for the money. Will not go back, pitty as we had heard all good things about this place

Good, simple food. Chicken curry was simple but very good. Veggie curry was peas, carrots, curry sauce and rice. Bit disappointed in one of the deserts. Apple crumble turned out to be a ramekin with warm sliced apples, crumble and apple sauce. Iโd prefer the apples to be cooked. Good beer, helpful staff and friendly atmosphere.

This is a little late in coming but here is my story about Rice'w Hotel in Poinyzpass. I and my son John Quinn had been traveling in Ireland fo a few days. I wanted to show him the Ireland that I knew. We started of in Dublin and traveled East to points in Dingle, Killarney etc. I introduced him to Blarney Castle and the stone (wish I hadn't as he hasn't stopped talking since). We grabbed some Wexford Strawberries for our hostess in Scarva and headed out for the North. We never stopped along the way expecting to grab some dinner before we landed in Scarva. We stopped at Rice's for a good dinner before arriving at our destination, the kitchen had just closed, I explained that we had jst traveled straight through from Cork knowing that we would get a great dinner at Rice's. The barman said to us, just wait a minute and called the chef at home, he returned and cooked up one of the best dinners that we had on our trip. Thank you so much for the hospitality shown to 2 hungry Canadian travelers.

Waitress was very helpful and pleasant. I had the Caesar salad for starters, huge potions, very good The fish n chips for mains were excellent. My husband had the chicken goujons and chicken curry. Fantastic garlic mayo with the goujons. The curry was particularly good. Great flavour. Would thoroughly recommend Rices for a meal

After months of lockdown, our first meal out we decided to go to Rices for lunch! We had been twice before and were very impressed. This visit was no different - the food was amazing. I had 2 starters, buffalo wings and chilli beef bruschetta - both dishes beautiful. My husband got the steak sandwich, which he loved. We love the welcoming feel and decor - but most importantly the staff. They are so nice and helpful. Special shout out to the young lady who served us (and on our previous visit). She has a natural charm and always helpful.I highly recommend this place to everyone.Thanks Rices - you did not disappoint!
