Diamond Rocks Café
A seaside café at the start of the cliff walk at the western end of Kilkee, popular for its seafood chowder with homemade brown bread.
Set at the western end of Kilkee town beside the cliff walk, with panoramic views of Kilkee Bay and the Diamond Rocks. It's a popular stop after the cliff walk and ranks near the top of Kilkee's restaurants on Tripadvisor. It serves breakfast (until 12:30), sandwiches, soup, pizza, fish and chips, crab and prawns. The signature is a hearty seafood chowder, rich with fresh fish and shellfish, served with homemade brown bread for about 13 euros. No reservations are needed, though in summer it can get busy at lunchtime. It's about a 15-minute walk from the town center.
