We are leaving on Good Friday for our 2nd trip to Ireland. On Easter Sunday we will be exploring Achill Island and just relaxing at our B&B in Westport. Should we expect any complications due to the holiday? Will restaurants/pubs be open for meals? Will any banks be open over the weekend? I wouldn't think anything on Achill would be effected cuz we're just checking out the landscape/views.
You are almost at departure. Have you packed your bags yet? On Easter restaurants and pubs will be open. It is a big day for Irish families to go out for Sunday lunch. I would suggest either lunch reservations or pack a lunch to take with you. Ask your hosts about dinner reservations at your restaurant of choice. They will be able to tell you if you need them.
A wonderful place to eat on Achill Island is Achill Cliff House Hotel. But you would most likely need reservations. They usually have homemade banoffee.
