Arboretum Home & Garden Heaven in

Love this place, I stop here regularly when passing through Carlow😊

Fabulous garden centre. Lovely walks. The cafe is great , good food and staff are very helpful

Lovely place to visit, definitely worth the trip.

Very pleasant place with beautiful plants and a great restaurant

Loved the beef stew and roulade for dessert

I ordered eggs Benedict here on the 3 july 25 it's a breakfast item that requires a little more skill to prepare and I have to say it was not good at all the whole item was smothered in Hollandaise sauce way too much, the eggs were way over cooked completely hard and the muffins were also hard. I ordered a cappuccino which had to be returned as it was luke warm but the replacement cup was lovely. I should have had the breakfast replaced but I didn't I was outside with my dog, so just inconvenient for me, the arboretum itself is lovely, breakfast though very disappointing.

Very popular with local people and families, especially for lunch, where everyone catches up on all the local news. Food is always of a high standard and excellent value for money. On weekends at times it may be tough to find a seat...

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rachel’s Garden Café – A Hidden Oasis in the Heart of Carlow If you're anywhere near Leighlinbridge, do yourself a favour and stop into Rachel’s Garden Café at the Arboretum — it’s an absolute gem. The coffee is top-notch, the staff are warm, friendly, and genuinely a pleasure to deal with, and the whole atmosphere is just pure calm. What really sets this place apart is the location. Surrounded by the beautifully maintained Arboretum gardens, you can sip your coffee while sitting in the sun, tucked into one of the many peaceful spots that make this place feel like a retreat from the world. It’s the perfect balance of a quality café and a stunning garden experience. An outstanding spot for a coffee, a stroll, and a bit of serenity. Highly recommended.

Great staff so friendly. Lovely food . Good selection.
