The Tam O Shanter has a lovely old traditional style and feel. A welcoming glowing stove warms you as you take in the ambience. The food is fantastic, quality ingredients with a touch of 'home cooked' familiarity to it. Friendly family run business that doesn't forget how good the personal touch makes the dining experience.

Lovely quiet local spot. Delicious carvery & the staff were so welcoming on a cold wet windy day after a long journey. Definitely recommended.

Best place we ate the whole of our trip in Northern Ireland. Food, service and company was amazing. Portions are generous and delicious. BBQ wings smothered in sauce, chicken and pulled pork burger and seafood tagliatelle. I’m not a lover of mussels, when I asked to remove them from the dish I was immediately offered a replacement of another fish. There was more than enough fish and the sauce was lovely. Fresh chips and a burger that was demolished. We would have happily come back every day if we’d been staying longer. While you wait for food you can chat to the very friendly locals or look at all the funny signs and details around the bar. I believe there was a bigger dining area upstairs if needed. The company was lovely, the owner was cheerful and happy to help wherever she could. We could not recommend this place more. We’ll be back next time to try the cheesecake and hope to spend another evening winding up Jeff😁

Wow! Staying in Kilkeel, a quiet fishing village and the home of my wife’s ancestors. This was our first dinner out. Pleasant attentive staff, outstanding food, fun atmosphere! Did I mention the food? We shared the seafood linguine, a marvelous combination of mussels, prawns and fish, pasta and sauce. Oh the sauce! Just delicious. Garlic bread was also perfect. The pricing was really reasonable. The other patrons were fun and interested in us, the foreigners. Update: OK, we’re home now and wanted to say of all the meals we had in Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, this was the best! Thanks!!

As a regular user of this restaurant I can’t speak highly enough off it,with their prawn morney being one of my favourite meals.The Sunday cavery is without a doubt the best and most reasonably priced in the area,also the prawn cocktail is made with local caught prawns and not those cheap imported shrimps like most other establishments and the crac is always mighty.

Visitamos poco después de Navidad y tenía un encantador almuerzo.Mi compañero tenía la mayor filete es probado y yo tenía un plato de fideos chili dulce. Siempre estoy indeciso sobre qué opciones para vegetarianos que se consigue en restaurantes como estoy limitada generalmente a pasta, pero había un montón que podía elegir por suerte.

Entramos en seguros si este era un pub o restaurante. Unos pocos chicos de beber en un bar pequeño dijo que ir arriba. Escalada una escalera muy empinada que entramos en una zona de descanso con alfombras de tartán marrón. Una señora escocesa dijo que no que la mitad de pintas de Guinness como me apetecía. No soy un bebedor, pero tomé una copa de vino y pedimos agua que nunca llegó.Pedí tiras de bistec con patatas cajún media y arroz. La comida era agradable, pero el bistec caro como me dieron un café también.Cuando fuimos a pagar abajo en el bar los chicos eran ahora más borracho y más brusca.Estoy debatiendo si volver si en la zona, ya que la comida era buena.

Always visit this place when I'm home with friends and family. The food is to die for, particular the Irish produced steak or seafood from the local area. The price for drinks and food is incredibly good value. There is a turf lit fire in the winter months and a beer garden to the rear during the summer months.

A huge thank you to the owners and staff of The Tam O' Shanter in Kilkeel. Without doubt, a very enjoyable evening awaits one and all!

We went to Tam O' Shanter yesterday for the 3 course carvery and I must say it was by far one of the best carverys I have ever had. When we arrived we were greeted at the door by two lovely ladies, one then took us to the restaurant and showed us to our table. The food from the starter right through to the dessert was all delicious, great big portions and full of taste. The staff were all very friendly and the service was excellent. Will highly recommend and can't wait to go back.

Tam o shanter has a straight forward menu that works well. Wholesome food excellently cooked and well presented. I had haddock and chips .. Chips were home made dry and cooked to perfection the haddock had light batter and tasted great. Definitely will be back here again warm friendly atmosphere this place is worth a call when visiting the kingdom of mourne. I only found this place by chance ... Glad I did

Fifteen of us went here for mothers day, and although the restaurant was not busy, we waited almost 20 minutes until someone came to take our order for our starter. Starters when they arrived were lovely, and as we have eaten in a LOT of carvery restaurants before, once we had finished our starter we made our way up to where the carvary was being served. Two of our table got their meal, when we were asked "are you in a hurry as there are other tables ahead of you" I was quite taken aback, as, from past experience, this is not how carverys normally work. The rest of the table had to then wait until we were called for our meal, by which time, the two that had got their meal were almost finished. The meal was lovely though, and plenty of it. We then ordered our desserts, and had made it plain that as some of the party had a funeral to attend, we were in quite a rush. Desserts started to arrive and when we enquired as to whether we could have the crumble first due to the my father being under pressure for time, I was quite abruptly told that "the crumble is in the oven, we're doing our best" by one of the waitresses. The redeeming factor was the gentleman (the owners hubby) who appeared at our table at the end of the meal and gave lollypops to all the children. Unfortunately, we won't be returning - which is a shame, as the food was lovely, plenty of it, but let down by the service we received.

Kilkeel is crying out for good places to eat so it was great to find the Tam O'Shanter.After a quick look on trip adviser I phoned to make a reservation. The welcome and information on the phone was the friendliest I think I have ever had.Arriving into the restaurant the same warm welcome greeted us.We elected to eat in the bar area as we had been advised this was were the 'Craic' was.Tam O'Shanter appears to be a family affair and I would imagine after a couple of visits you could well find yourself feeling like you had joined the family.We ordered the Surf and Turf as a treat with Garlic potatoes. The food was reasonably quick and was of a good hearty standard. The meal was reasonably priced for what we ordered but there is a cheaper bar snacks menu which we look forward to trying on our next visit.

The Tam O'Shanter used to get a bad name and i wouldn't have went to it , BUT NOW, Fiona Has taken it over and it truly is a "hidden treasure". It is some where that you would not be embarrassed to take visitors to. The staff are very friendly and the decor upstairs is really nice with no fusty smell. The 10oz steak is fantastic and they do, in my opinion nice tasty starters and good desserts. I would advise you to book a table upstairs as it is more peaceful. It is really worth a visit.

Popped in to ease my hunger and found it not full at 5.30 ish. Ordered a 6 inch herb and cheese rib burger meal deal at £5.49. Youth making subs was friendly, clean, efficient and interested in his job. I like less on my subs. So cucumber, tomato, pickles and sweet onion sauce and a little bbq sauce was adequate. Latte was fine and smartie cookie nice. Boss was there cleaning. Place is on busy street but parking should be fine. Recommended.
