Used to be one of my favourite cafes. Unfortunately the new menu has not only removed many choices but it has greatly reduced the number of vegan and vegetarian options. The remaining items are still good though and the coffee is very nice!

Tried out the new Catalyst menu today. Absolutely fabulous brunch. Really loved the shakshuka eggs. The food was delicious and so fresh. Staff were all so lovely as usual 🙌

Catalyst on Florence Road is lovely, the service is always nice, and the coffee tastes good. I like the energy balls by the till - they are very tasty and a good addition for a lunch coffee break.

Lovely place”overly coffee. Dog friendly when we were unfortunately there was a dog that wouldn’t stop barking at others, not the staffs fault. But people should keep reactive dogs home, I wouldn’t take my to a place this for the same reason

Very disappointing when menu changed.
Significant reduction in options such as pancakes and french and the vegiterian breakfast. Hopefully these options are added back one day however for now it's disappointing.
Great service and nice atmosphere however no longer as good for vegiterian/ vegan breakfasts.

The new menu was a huge letdown for us. Choice and Food was disappointing, nothing like it used to be (compare the two photos!) Won't be coming back 😭
This was my original review, with the first photo. :: One of my favourite cafés of all time, great service and fantastic food every time we visit. And dog friendly which is a huge plus for us!

Always one of my favourite places in Bray for lunch. This place has had the best flavoured soups in the town for years. Sadly, soup seems to have disappeared off the new shorter menu. However, the avocado dish is still excellent and the new French toast is really delicious👍🏽 BRING BACK SOUP 🥴
