Iconic Mayo seafood restaurant is on the market

A LANDMARK restaurant on Achill Island has gone up for sale.

The famous Chalet Seafood Restaurant in Keel has been in the Hassett family since 1963 and was completely rebuilt and refurbished in 1993 and is a thriving seafood restaurant for 60 years.

It is being offered for sale by Frank Chambers Auctioneers in Newport.

The restaurant has stunning views, overlooking Keel Beach and the Minaun Cliffs.

It is famous for its seafood, lobster, salmon, mussels and a wide variety of fresh fish caught from their own trawler, fished in the clear blue waters of the Atlantic.

Situated on the Wild Atlantic Way, in an ideal location in the heart of Achill Island, it is a great business venture for any potential purchaser or investor.

The auctioneers point to the tourism boost Achill has received from the film The Banshees of Inisherin, saying its portrayal of the island with its magnificent scenery will attract further tourism, which will have a positive impact on this business.

Fully equipped, furnished and in turnkey condition, it offers a unique opportunity to any potential purchaser to continue with a very successful business.

The restaurant consists of two spacious dining rooms and state of the art kitchen. The building also has two commercial units, one self-contained with external entrance and one off the reception area, presently leased to Achill Tourism.

Also on site, is a very lucrative crazy golf course, which is well maintained.
