    Hi, been a while since I've eaten out in Athlone but I've a few friends visiting and wondering where is good these days. Will be avoiding Italian type places as one of them is from Italy and I'd like them to try something else.

    They eat everything but would usually go for fish dishes - any recommendations in or around Athlone.

    thanks

    The chalets do the best steaks this side of anywhere.

    The village restaurant in Glasson is a pretty good restaurant for fish dishes they have fresh lobster on the specials board at the moment.

    Always thought the chalets was overrated, driving out to the middle of nowhere for steak

    How dare you say any thing remotely critical of the chalets
