Catherine's has nice staff. However I had to ask for a glass for my coke. When I did ask the staff offered ice which was nice.
Then I got my breakfast bap. I didn't see any ketchup. I wasn't offered any condiments or checked on to see if my food was ok.
The staff are nice but it's little things that could make this cafe an 'ok' to a 'great' cafe.
I also tried their cream donut which was delicious. Staff in there was nice.
One criticism is one staff (maybe owner/manager) let her child sit and play with an iPad or something similar and was playing stuff off the device loudly. This is annoying for most people. Then they sat elderly couple next the child.
Overall this place heart. Has a good people, good food, good prices, but needs a lot of improvements on some details.

The food quality is cheap. The black pudding and beans were the most obvious ones for me, the egg looked very presentable but the white on top wasn't fully cooked. Overall the presentation is great but they need to upgrade their products they use. And then I'd return.
Fresh apple juice would be better than the made from concentrated ones. Which felt like a rip off. I had the Irish breakfast. Even the bread needs to be higher quality. I could barely finish my meal but the service was amazing. If you guys make these changes to the quality of products, you'd literally be an amazing spot.
Lovely staff, always have a wide selection of treats in the shop and cafe
Well worth a trip đ

Simple restaurant with tasty breakfast! Got a veggie breakfast roll, they were out of veg sausage so put in extra hash browns, canât complain with that! It was filling so I only ate half and had some for lunch. We also got pastries for later and they were cheap and delicious!

I rarely write reviews, but today I was inspired by the barista at this cafĂ©. I hope sheâs not being held hostage and is getting paidâif she is, then she definitely needs a day off, or maybe even a different line of work altogether. I really love this cafĂ© and have become a regular, so I was quite disappointed by her attitude.
I understand that working in customer service and dealing with people is hardâI work in the same field myself. But I came to a cafĂ©, not someoneâs home demanding free food. A basic level of politeness, friendliness, and attentiveness should be the standard.
The cafĂ© wasnât busy, it wasnât noisy, and yet my order was mixed upâand then I was blamed for it. It was then mixed up again. I didnât bother arguing, because the complete indifference in her eyes was enough, and I didnât want to ruin my morning even more.
