I stopped off for breakfast whilst travelling on my motorbike. It was excellent and I wish I'd have had some space in my luggage to put shopping. I would have spent a fortune on sauces, relish and jams!
Excellent quality food and drinks.
If you have the Blasta breakfast, do yourself a favour and ask for a side of beans with it. I wish I'd have, it really needed a little moisture with all the bread.

Visited here with friends and we all decided to have a fry.
So many Irish fry’s now use cheaper, inferior quality meats but not this one. Absolutely fantastic. The provision of a salsa sauce was most welcome.
Not much more I can say except that I’ve been recommending this place to friends, so that should say enough!

Very warm welcome, excellent service, delicious meals, and the option to eat inside, in the shade or in the sun, all facing the sea. Clean restrooms, a small grocery store on site, ample free parking, and surrounded by a few artisan shops, a very beautiful and colorful place.
I will definitely return!

Super cup of coffee, deliciously fresh scone and gorgeous fruitfully filled jam.
Quick service as we arrived at a quiet time.
Peace was marred by the arrival of a group of children who were very noisy and pushy

Love this place. I only seem to come when it’s super busy though so I have yet to sit inside. That’s not a flaw, it’s a sign of how popular it is. Hence the atmosphere outside on a windy misty day was mildly lower than what it is like inside. My breaded Brie salad was one of the best salads I’ve had in my life. In such a popular place, you’re bound to get a few bad reviews from people expecting more than is realistic when a restaurant is over-run. I witnessed a v annoyed father of a family sharing his displeasure in having to wait for food (not as long as my brother and I had waited for food as we had ordered much earlier than them) to the hard-working service staff who could do nothing about his imagined slight. They were so polite and accommodating, I couldn’t imagine reacting so well. Fair play to the team.

Such a cute atmosphere, the food is delicious and the staff are friendly and really good at what they do. It’s the nicest place in Spiddal to sit down for a coffee or tea, or to grab a bite to eat 👌🏻

Builin blasta is a gem on route to what one could called the gateway to Connemara, the food is great, lovely selection re retail and local goods and on a sunny day there isn’t a nicer spot.
My only qualm is the music selection, a lot of establishments put a great deal of thought into food, decor and service and then don’t think about the type of music they are choosing to play in their establishment. I could be wrong but I get the sense that Builin hasn’t given it much thought . Today I had my lunch in Builin, lovely lunch, the place was packed and the music, some kind of odd selection of fast paced thumping teenage rock, lots of drums. honestly it made me want to leave as soon as I could it was the opposite to relaxing, it just adds another layer of noise
It’s just the wrong kind of tunes for this cafe, and don’t get me wrong I love music, I’m a musician.. so please Builin, re think your playlist and I gurantee you everyone will be at lot happier, mile buiochas
