Amazing experience at The Black Pig tonight for a drink and cheese board. We walked by around 10 pm…read moreand it was still bustling with people. We popped our heads in and immediately were greeted by Charlie, who was extremely welcoming and kind and got us a table outside for a drink. Note- it does seem small inside. We had some wonderful drinks and truly enjoyed the cheese board. Her husband came out to bring the board and was also extremely kind and friendly. Our drinks were tasty and the wine list was truly extensive. Overall, a must go to!

Of course, we sampled various wines. They have approximately 300 different bottles to choose from and approximately 100 of those you can get by the glass. We had several tapas, including the chili and mint olives, a charcuterie board, a cheeseboard, and our favorite - the ham and chorizo croquettes. Service was good and we would highly recommend this restaurant if you ever find yourself in Kinsale!

We arrived at 8:45 for a drink or two at the bar and the hostess told me that the bar seats were typically reserved! Mind you, there are only two women at a bar with about 10-12 chairs and they were paying their bill and preparing to leave! So I am glad they could "find room" for us. The bartender asked us what we wanted without a smile or a welcome. I asked for a rum and a Rose for my wife. I drank my rum and about 20 minutes later, was ready for another. I pushed my glass towards the bar, as one does when you want another, and our bartender, another bartender and the owner/manager walked past that empty glass about 8-10 times without any acknowledgment that we were sat there. The whole vibe in Kinsale seems to be annoyance at the tourists. And it was clearly on display here. I would suggest going somewhere where you are welcomed. We are the ones that fees that economy.

After a full day of touring Ireland's coastline, we ended our evening in Kinsale and chose Fishy…read moreFishy for dinner. We started with the multigrain bread and house-made butter, which was a simple but tasty way to begin the meal. The lobster bisque followed and was rich, creamy, and hearty. While the lobster flavor became a bit overpowering toward the end, it was still well worth ordering. For our mains, I had Jody Hurley's Wok Fried Crab Claws with white rice, and my wife ordered the Baked Local Lobster with spring onion mash and salad. The crab claws were tossed in a creamy lemon sweet chili sauce that was packed with flavor, and the rice balanced the richness perfectly. The generous portion was an added bonus. The standout, however, was the baked lobster--fresh, perfectly cooked, and topped with a delicious mustard cream sauce. Paired with the mash and salad, it made for an excellent meal. Fishy Fishy delivered fresh seafood, generous portions, and flavors that made it a memorable stop in Kinsale.
