We ate here three times during our holiday and each time was as delicious as the last. The creamy chowder was full of mouthwatering fish and was filling with the accompanying homemade breads. The Tiger prawns were cooked in the lightest tempura batter and served with fries and salad and a lovely chilli dressing. The staff were all lovely and helpful and there was plenty of space between tables in line with current regulations. We could not fault anything at Jacks , it’s simply a must go to place.
We had a fabulous meal here recently, the food was beautiful, service was excellent, staff were friendly and professional. Will definitely be back again. Live music from JP was an added bonus
We ate here last Monday night and while it was not very busy, the atmosphere was perfect. The staff were so friendly and called guests by name (we give our details for Covid tracking). The food was out of this world and my fillet steak was the best I ever had. We try to get here to eat twice a year for special nights out.
The food here surpasses all expectations. For anyone who likes seafood, eating in Jacks is a must!
We sat by a large window looking across Cromane to Inch Beach, very beautiful views.
I feel like a had a real treat this evening and can’t wait to visit again.
We have many special memories of “Jacks” going back over 35 years. Needless to say the Food offering back then was probably a Pint and Packet Of Crisps. We returned recently after too long an absence and sampled the fare on offer by Brian and his wonderful team. The Guinness is still superb but no words of mine could do justice to the culinary experience we enjoyed. If you have not made your way to Cromane by now, then make plans to visit. You will not be disappointed.
