Food

West Cork food has a reputation for excellence, and the Sheep’s Head Way is a fantastic place to discover its true flavours

Many of the cafés and restaurants you’ll go into have been family-run for several generations. There’s great pride in local produce, and you’ll hear stories to go with most of the things you’ll eat along the Sheep’s Head Way!

Our pristine waters, and a pure, unspoilt landscape provide the perfect ingredients for great West Cork food and for experiences like foodie tours that bring you to the heart of our community.

Savour your time in one of Bantry’s fine seafood restaurants, take lunch in a café, or enjoy a meal overlooking Dunmanus Bay. You can even call in to one of our magnificent delis to pick up treats for a picnic. Try Durrus cheese, Glenilen yoghurts, Bantry Bay mussels and more … Remember, there are plenty of fine walks to help you shake off the effects of your indulgence!

You’re sure to love the time you spend eating the Sheep’s Head Way!
