This is a restaurant in the village. They are now only open 12-9 Thursday - Sunday. The chef is from Sri Lanka and makes his own curry spices. Butter Chicken, Sri Lankan and Green Curry (that will spoil you for all others) are the main attractions. But there are daily specials such as lamb or pasta and the usual soup & sandwiches.

A bright cheerful cafe with outdoor seating in the back. A solid breakfast menu (9-12:30) and an all-day breakfast. A large selection of homemade desserts temp from the glass case. Better than the standard fare. Gluten-free bread available.

Sightseeing
The place to go if you are short on time and want to learn 3000 years of Irish history with hands-on, feel and do exhibits that you can experience in full-size. Good restaurant and gift shop. It's outdoors so there's lots of walking and it will take a few hours. Great for wearing out the kids!

Where we go to the beach. There are toilets, picnic tables, a tap. It's dangerous to the left but to the right are rocks to climb on and rock pools to explore. It is 9 miles/14 kilometers away.
