The Old Cable Historic House & Seafood Restaurant

I stayed at Cable House for the Kerry Cup. I spent a few nights watching the World Cup with him, shared a few pints, and lots of stories. The man emanates Irish warmth and hospitality. One night, I ate at Oh Mary Lou, his restaurant in-house. The homemade spaghetti and meatballs were a huge favorite, made simply but delicious. All his meals are homemade and made fresh. Would go back in a heartbeat!

Made a number of phone calls to restaurant - same phone number as B&B. Left messages - no response. On-line say closed each day. Eventually got through this morning and spoke with a male who was outrageously ignorant and unhelpful. Said it was closed today and I added yesterday and the day before. Told me to book online and I said it was giving closed today, online. Very rude man who appeared to hang up. Tried ringing back a couple of minutes later but I was back to voicemail. If it’s closed, I’m not surprised with that attitude.

My wife and I were here for the past two nights. Terrible weather, lovely accomodations. Margaret and Connor (owners) were friendly, funny, informative, not invasive and gave us plenty of time to linger over breakfast. Irish breakfast, more than willing to add and subtract to our tastes. The bedroom and bath were competely fine, clean and comfortable. If and when we return to Waterville, we will absolutely reserve with the Old Cable.
