Anglers Rest, nestled in Katesbridge, is a delightful Irish restaurant that has garnered glowing reviews from its patrons. Guests frequently praise the welcoming atmosphere and the warmth of the staff, who effortlessly balance attentiveness with friendliness, even during busy periods.
One standout feature mentioned by multiple visitors is the fantastic Sunday lunch offerings. The generous portions, particularly the expertly cooked steaks, leave diners thoroughly satisfied. Philip Flowerday recounts a pleasant experience where he enjoyed a full three-course meal that was surprisingly affordable at £45 for two, complementing the great food with a couple of drinks.
While the food generally receives high marks, a few reviews draw attention to the limited vegetarian options. However, the establishment's ability to cater to food intolerances showcases their commitment to inclusivity. Grace Peacock highlighted the impressively light batter on the Argentinian Red Shrimp, suggesting that the kitchen excels in delivering sublime flavors. Additional recommendations include their chicken curry, proving that variety is indeed a hallmark at Anglers Rest.
Overall, Anglers Rest stands out for its exceptional food, friendly atmosphere, and cleanliness, making it a must-visit destination for those in search of a memorable dining experience.

Visited for Sunday lunch. Warm welcome the minute you arrive and staff all very friendly with time to talk even though they were busy. Menu options forced me into the full 3 courses and with a couple of drinks for both of us came to 45 which was very reasonable. One issue for me is that although food intolerances were catered for, there was no vegetarian option on the menu and no obvious vegetarian menu. I may have missed this though. Lots of parking, warm welcome, friendly staff and most of all the great food and atmosphere have left us definitely wanting to come back for more.

Wonderful people and food! I would make this restaurant a stop if you are nearby. The service was great and the food delicious. We were staying nearby and hungry and didn't have reservations but they put us in the bar area and it was great. All the people in the bar were friendly and the manager was too

Wonderful place to share a meal with friends or family. Warm and welcoming service. The food was both beautiful and delicious. The classic roast hit the spot. Upscale Tavern ambience!
