Overview

Situated in the heart of Keel, Co. Mayo, The Amethyst Bar is like that cozy spot you never knew you needed. Picture this: a warm, friendly atmosphere bustling with locals and visitors alike. Open since July 2017, this bar and grill has become the go-to place for food lovers of all kinds—meat enthusiasts, vegetarians, seafood aficionados—you name it, they’ve got it! The menu? It’s got something for everyone; I mean, even the fish dishes are said to be stellar.

I rolled in after a long day exploring Achill Island, and let me tell you, it delivered. The vibe was instantly welcoming. With 1512 reviews and a score of 4.6 out of 5, it’s no wonder why folks rave about it. From what I gathered, their seafood chowder is a crowd favorite, and I could see why—so rich and flavorful, the kind you’d daydream about later.

Outdoor seating is available, making it perfect for those lovely sunny days, though fair warning, it can get busy. Reservations seem to be recommended for dinner, especially on weekends. I noticed the staff were incredibly attentive, despite the hustle and bustle—talk about a fine balancing act!

Forget a boring night; this place even hosts live music, just to add a sprinkle of fun to your evening. And let’s not overlook the desserts; folks are saying the Twix cheesecake is a must-try! With good reason, it’s become a cornerstone for community gatherings and family meals.

If you’re in the area and craving a great meal alongside a well-poured pint, you should absolutely swing by The Amethyst Bar. You might even find a new favorite dish. Just bring your appetite and maybe a friend or two!
