Nick’s Restaurant and Piano Bar
The Rat Pack feel to this restaurant’s name says everything about its old school credentials. Nick’s is quite famous in this part of Ireland—it’s been here since 1978—and although you won’t find cutting-edge modern cuisine here, it still deserves its reputation as one of the better places to eat along the Ring of Kerry. Choose from two dining areas: a formal restaurant or the “Gastro Bar,” where a simpler (and less expensive) selection is served in more relaxed surroundings. On the main menu are catches of the day (naturally), as well as grilled sole, monkfish and shrimp Thermidor, and a classic seafood platter. You can also order grilled steaks and lamb. The bar menu offers simpler, but nonetheless classy options—Thai beef and asparagus salad, beef, lamb, or pulled pork burgers, or perhaps a steaming hot bowl of creamy seafood Mornay. Everything is served to the gentle melodies of a live piano accompaniment. The same as it ever was.
