Off The Square

"Bordered on one side by the majestic Twelve Bens mountains and on the other by the Atlantic Ocean, Connemara is one of the most unspoiled of all Ireland’s natural regions. Only an hour and thirty minutes drive from the bustling city of Galway lies Clifden, the ‘capital of Connemara’."

It is here that P.J. and Maureen Heffernan welcome you to the spacious Off The Square Restaurant, probably the finest seafood restaurant in Clifden.

Connemara is blessed with the best of natural produce: Oysters and Crab from Aughrismore, Scallops and Lobsters from Cleggan village, delicious lamb from the renown Connemara Blackface sheep, succulent fillets and sirloin of Connemara Beef, and much much more. All of this produce goes into
Off The Square’s fabulous meals.

No visit to Connemara is complete without a meal at Off The Square, be it our Full Irish Breakfast, Lunch Specials, or indeed a knock-yer-socks-off Dinner. Wine is served by the bottle or glass, as is a variety of beers, and our Desserts are not to be missed! Spacious and welcoming, you can find us on Clifden’s Main Street – just ‘off the Square!’
