The Man Friday
Nice imaginative menu. Average price. I like the ambiance created with a roaring fire, a little touch of Italian, in an old building on the site of what was originally the Mansion House when Kinsale was a walled town under Anglo-Normans rule back around 1300's,

Open fire creating a cozy atmosphere. Sometimes have live traditional music.
I also like my local pub, The Dock, which is within walking distance and so nice to walk home from on a starry still night.
