11 Best Restaurants In Westport (Ye'll LOVE in 2021)
"Located in the heart of the town, the West Bar & Restaurant is one of the best places to eat in Westport for a quick lunch or dinner in the city. I like their version of seafood chowder, while the salmon and mussels are also great options for ordering. Visitors looking for a hearty dish should go for the steak."

The 10 Best Cafes in Westport
"Only a 5 minute walk from the town centre, Mocha Beans is definitely the spot for a hungry group. A large menu, top notch coffee and a larger premises in general, it would make for a good choice if you have a hungry group of 4 looking for a place to get a nice lunch on a busy Saturday or Sunday. No, it doesn’t have that cosy, Irish vibe you might find in the town, but Mocha Beans is were locals will go for lunch everyday – It’s that kind of place."
