Our Latest Great Place To Eat - The Towers
Friday 28 August 2020
The Towers Bar & Restaurant in Westport, Co. Mayo is a fantastic spot at any time of day with its gorgeous sea views, great atmosphere and cracking seafood. The interior is bright and modern having been stylishly renovated, but still retains some classic features like the bar’s cosy snug. There are fitting nautical nods in the decor and great big windows surrounding the restaurant, making the most of its gorgeous waterside locale with panoramic views of Clew Bay, Croagh Patrick and Clare Island. It also features a superb beer garden with lots of picnic tables and plenty of space - perfect for an al fresco afternoon.
Starters at The Towers may include the likes of Killary mussels steamed with a white wine and garlic and finished with a hint of cream; Clew Bay oysters served with homemade brown bread; or Inishturk crab remoulade. They do a great Clew Bay seafood chowder as well, but if you’re feeling less fishy, then dig into a generous helping of their golden fried bbq chicken wings.
For the mains, there’s plenty to choose from, both from land and sea. Their signature 8oz Hereford beef burger is a hearty treat served with crispy bacon, brie, tomato, mayonnaise and twice cooked chips; and their Hereford steak sambo is fab too; but their top tier boeuf is a 10oz Hereford sirloin with sauteed onions and mushrooms.
