The Castlebar - Ealing

We saw this place full of people and we went in, because you know: where there are people, you can eat well. In fact, we were not disappointed. The staff is quick and courteous, always helpful. The bartender is great, he makes some great cocktails. The chef always made us delicious, very good dishes. The place is warm and welcoming. A special mention to Antonella and Maria who made us feel at home, always attentive to the needs of our customers. Basically for a week we always came back and had a great time. Highly recommended.

Have been visiting this establishment for a while now, and I can say their service and food has never let me down. I've had my birthday party hosted last February and tried some of the cocktails-honesty the best I've ever had. Kiss of fire was my favourite, Japanese Collins and margaritas were amazing. Definitely recommend this bar in Ealing.

Good cocktails with some nice seasonal specials on the menu. The food was decent and the shisha was good too. The atmosphere can be enjoyable, but it does get quite loud at times, particularly when larger groups are in and shouting, which can make conversation difficult.

First time visiting and it turned out to be a great find! I stopped by to get some work done, have lunch, and enjoy a shisha. The place is spacious, comfortable, and has a relaxing vibe. We were greeted by Antonella, the manager, who was amazing throughout our visit… friendly, engaging, and full of helpful recommendations. We tried the Sunday roast, which came in a generous portion and tasted really good. The seafood linguine was the standout dish…absolutely amazing and full of flavour. We ended with churros that were perfectly crunchy and drenched in chocolate. The shisha was also very good, though keep in mind it’s cash only for shisha. By the time we were leaving, they had started showing a football match, and the ambiance became lively and enjoyable it’s definitely a bonus if you’re into sports. Prices are acceptable, the service is wonderful, and overall it was a fantastic experience. We’ll definitely be coming back again!

The outdoor area is great for anyone who enjoys smoking or watching matches, although it can get quite noisy. After we finished our meal, we moved to the indoor section, which was quiet, comfortable, and much more relaxing. The service was good, and the lady supervising the place — the one with the adorable dog — was kind and attentive. She made sure we had everything we needed and created a very welcoming atmosphere.

Castle Bar Restaurant is an absolute delight—cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, and delicious food that hits the spot every time. Whether you're stopping by for a casual meal or a special night out, this place never disappoints. Highly recommend!

This place never misses. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is warm, lively, and genuinely welcoming — the kind of spot where you instantly feel at ease. The vibes are always on point, making it perfect whether you’re catching up with friends or just unwinding after a long day. The food is consistently fantastic, with generous portions that never leave you disappointed. Every dish feels thoughtfully prepared and full of flavour, making it great value for the quality you get. A special mention has to go to Farouk “Valentino,” whose shisha game is unmatched. He always takes the time to recommend new flavours and combinations, and somehow manages to get it spot on every time. His passion and attention to detail really elevate the whole experience. Maria and Anton are also incredible — always attentive, always checking in, and making sure everything runs smoothly. Their professionalism and warmth clearly set the standard for the rest of the team, who are just as welcoming and attentive throughout every visit. I’ve become a regular here and honestly can’t see that changing any time soon. Huge thanks to the entire team for always making each visit so enjoyable. Highly recommended!

I ordered a Halal English Breakfast from The Castlebar through Just Eat and was absolutely shocked at the state of the food I received. Not only was it poorly presented, but much of it was undercooked and unsafe to eat. The sausages were raw and pink in the middle (as my photos clearly show), and the bacon was also practically raw and chewy, looking like it hadn’t been cooked properly at all. For nearly £20 including delivery and service fees, this is completely unacceptable. Undercooked meat is a serious food safety issue — it could make someone very ill. I couldn’t eat the meal and had to request a refund through Just Eat. This isn’t just a matter of taste or presentation, it’s about basic health and hygiene standards that were not met. I rarely leave reviews, but in this case I feel it’s important to warn others. If this is how food is being prepared and sent out, it’s not safe. Extremely disappointed and I will never order from here again.
