steak uber allesUnusually for a set menu, there was a steak. There was an €8 surcharge and much to the alarm of the person watching the numbers, pretty much everyone in our group ordered it.![]()
who's that?As an added bonus we went to the Pier Head first for a pint, and Peter O'Mahoney was in there.

I had dinner in Blackrock Castle last night.
Ballycotton smoked salmon for starter, and monkfish for mains. It was a set menu but some really interesting options on there. One thing I didn't like, and it's the main reason I don't like Market Lane, is how much they overcomplicate the menu. You'd need Google open to figure out what is actually in the dishes.
The fish was absolutley top class. I haven't had monkfish in a long time but it's one of my favorites, and it was cooked perfectly. Unusually for a set menu, there was a steak.

Nice location, excellent friendly staff and service. €17 in a taxi from town down to the front door, which I found very reasonable.

You got a taxi from town down to the front door of Blackrock Castle but instead of going in you walked back down to the Pier Head which you'd presumably passed on the way up in the taxi.
Were they serving "Pork Pies" too![]()
The taxi was to the Pier Head, which is less than a 10 minute walk to the Castle.
Go back to defending terrorists. I suppose you're old enough to remember the time your pals the Palestinians blew up Vienna airport are you?
Ah, so you were caught lying about the taxi from town to the front door (of Blackrock Castle about which you'd been talking) being €17 - glad we've established that.
What terrorists am I defending dear? I'm certainly old enough to remember that someone who'd been labelled a terrorist by the likes of you won a Nobel PEACE Prize.
Any more lies to regale us with? Next you'll try tell us that Guinness is superior to Murphys or Beamish![]()
