Visited with my elderly mother who has mobility issues and my adult daughter. From the moment we arrived the staff did everything they could to make her comfortable in a very low key caring way. The breadth of the menu is matched by its quality. Confit Duck in particular was excellent. Toilet facilities (including one for those with special needs) were immaculately clean. Would recommend Cooke's to anyone.
We had a birthday dinner in the Lounge in Cookes. It was just a lovely experience. There were ten of us, including two small children. The booking process over the phone was smooth, and our table was ready for us when we arrived. There was a tv on without sound but when I asked they switched it off straight away.
We ordered starters, mains and desserts. Our servers were lovely and efficient, and had a few jokes with our group!
We were impressed with the portion sizes. The smoked salmon starter was really good - interesting fried capers were very tasty, and the brown bread was soft and tasty. Fried hake was light and crispy. Chicken wellington was very filling and comfort food style, and the Eton mess for dessert was a great combination of fresh berries and coulis along with a lovely meringue. All in all a lovely visit.
We tried this for the first time for lunch on Saturday, it is by far the best option for food in Naas/ Newbridge and surrounding areas! Surprised being from Newbridge we hadn’t heard of it before.
The food is unbelievable, and the staff are so friendly and attentive.
They have their Christmas dining options advertised inside and it’s so reasonably priced, we’ll definitely opt for here for our Christmas outings for a change this year.
There is a bar at the front which looks like a traditional Irish pub and they’d advertised they have live music every Friday and Saturday in December so we’re really looking forward to heading here.
10/10 would definitely recommend.
We were visiting the Naas area from NYC and discovered this gem. Cosy, warm gastropub with a relaxing atmosphere. The food is to die for! Best chowder I’ve ever had! Burgers are delicious with generous portions. Our children had lots to choose from the kids’ menu. Sausages were a big hit! One of the most memorable meals we had from our trip.
