Overall Rating
Excellent
Met for a family meal. There were two wheelchair users and we were worried about there being enough space, but we needn't have worried. It's very spacious and bright. There is a decent sized car park with an accessible parking space beside the side entrance. This entrance is as welcoming as the front entrance and doesn't feel like an afterthought like some can. There is a clear level path of paving slabs up to a set of double doors which were easy to open but sadly not automatic. The threshold is level as are the wood floors and they are easy to negotiate in a wheelchair or powerchair. The restaurant was very spacious. We had a few tables pushed together for a large group of us and there was ample room for two wheelchairs with plenty of room for people to pass freely on either side. Tables were a decent height, maybe very slightly higher than standard which suited my powerchair height very well and my aunt's manual chair too. Food was amazing and the staff were very friendly and helpful. They were happy to bring over anything we may need. I did not visit the toilets on this occasion but there was an accessible toilet there.

It was bright and airy, there was good colour contrast and it wasn't too noisy inside. There was ample space for people to get around. Tables are not crammed in. It's very spacious.
Parking & Transport
Good
We travelled here by car, there is a decent sized smoothly tarmacked carpark. Some spaces around the front entrance may be on a slope. There is a few steps at the front entrance so less mobile people will be parking on the flat area of carpark at the side entrance anyway. I know there was a bus that passed through Kilmalcolm but I'm unsure what public transport options there are now. Although it's just off of the cycle track if you are coming along walking or wheeling.
