Aboretum in Carlow

Absolutely love this place from the food to the shopping and the little walk but today they definitely could have done with more tills in the food area, the que was that long our food was cold before we got to pay for it and then eat it... there was 1 male manager in the food area I gathered he was abit stressed but certainly didn't like how he abruptly spoke at one of the female staff members to start serving on the till when she was assisting an elderly gentleman (and there was someone on the till so it was not huge deal that she jumped on immediately).

What a fabulous place to pass an hour or two. Brilliant selection of items to choose from and very competitively priced. Would highly recommend a visit!!!

Great food in the cafe, very friendly staff

A lovely place to go for a Sunday afternoon. Particularly at Christmas time! Food is delicious and reasonably priced with today's pricing. They are also extremely accommodating for dietary requirements which is very much appreciated and not so common!!!

It is fabulous store and extremely inviting. We really enjoyed our shopping experience in the store. We absolutely loved the garden cafe and the food is of superior quality and value. Staff service is very friendly and efficient. Highly recommended.

Fabulous destination garden centre. Great cafe and vast selection of plants and accessories. Well worth a trip

Beautiful garden centre, shop and cafe, all really well laid out. Not cheap, but not extortionatly expensive either. Nice place to amble about with a beautiful Christmas shop in season. It has the funkiest urinals I've ever experienced.

Fabulous restaurant moving at your pace. Fast lunch had and back on the go within 30 minutes, at the same time many people happy to sit and relax. I had great quality lunch but didn't have time to get the fabulous looking desert and coffee.

Always love my trips here 💕 and Mark is just amazing in the restaurant

Love going here, fantastic selection of plants and the food is delicious, outstanding staff and service.
