Moran's Oyster Cottage dates back almost 300 years and is now run by the seventh generation of the Moran family. It is renowned the world over for its superb seafood and environmentally protected oyster beds, which attract people from the five continents, and is open year-round. It is known that kings and queens, princes and princesses, have flown in for these oysters. It is not an exaggeration to say they are the best in the world.
The dining is informal, and the cottage very small and quaint. In warm weather there are many wooden tables outside overlooking the inlet bay. It is very easy to find, between Kinvara and Galway, near Clarinbridge.
