Killarney's lunchtime scene has undergone a significant transformation thanks to Carmella’s Burritos, a game-changing eatery that offers fast, delectable, and easily manageable burritos.

Founded by local entrepreneurs Sean McCarthy, Kevin Leane, and Leen Qasim on Beech Road, this establishment has quickly become a local sensation, filling a void in the town's culinary offerings. Previously, residents had to travel for a satisfying burrito, but now they can indulge in these treats locally.

Carmella’s Burritos sources all its produce locally, ensuring freshness and quality. Sean, a fitness enthusiast, and Kevin, an experienced chef, are particular about what they serve, guaranteeing that the food meets their own high standards. The restaurant uses meats from Cronin’s Butchers and fresh vegetables from O’Shea's Fruit & Veg, emphasising their commitment to quality.

The process of crafting your burrito is not only speedy but also customisable, allowing customers to choose their preferred ingredients. Beyond burritos, the menu includes soups, hotdogs, tea, and coffee. The establishment offers ample seating upstairs, providing a relaxing atmosphere for patrons to enjoy their meals. Carmella’s Burritos has become the go-to spot for lunch, offering a hassle-free experience and a delightful selection of food and beverages.

Spa GAA and the Kerry Parents & Friends Association are among the Kerry organisations to benefit from the SE Systems Community Fund Programme 2025.

Both groups have been announced as successful applicants for the national energy grant funding scheme, which supports community and sports organisations in delivering sustainable, energy-efficient projects that help reduce running costs.
The fund, launched in 2022, provides financial assistance, technical resources, and expert guidance to not-for-profit organisations working to improve energy efficiency and sustainability.
For Spa GAA, the funding will go towards a full insulation retrofit of the club’s Sports Hall and Clubhouse, as well as upgrading existing floodlights to new energy-efficient LED fittings. The project follows the installation of a Solar PV system earlier this year, continuing the club’s move toward greater energy conservation.
Speaking at the official funding announcement in Cork, James Cahill of Spa GAA thanked SE Systems “for supporting the power of sport and recreation to bring people together, promote healthy lifestyles and build connections in the community.”
Spa GAA has also been selected as one of three clubs nationally to feature in SE Systems’ print media campaign promoting the Community Fund.
