Elm Café in Ennis

27/01/2025: Had to leave a review for the level of quality service and food here. Myself and my partner went out for a meal and everything from start to finish went well. Credit to the servers there, so mannerly and friendly, and the food was excellent, with multiple veggie options. We each had cocktails, wine and 3 courses, all very satisfying and good value. Can't wait to go back :)

23/01/2025: We were on our way from the cliffs of Moher to Sligo on a Wednesday night when we found this little gem of a restaurant on the way. When we walked in there was only 2 other couples there and it remained that way for the entirety of our meal. The restuarant was nicely decorated and roomy. We were told by the kind server we can sit wherever. For drinks we ordered an Orchard Thieves and my partner ordered the special drink which was a Strawberry Gin Fizz. The speciality drink was delicious and an okay deal at 10 euros. Since being an Ireland, we have been trying all the fish and chips along our route. So of course we tried the fish and chips here. The food came out quickly and was hot. The fish and chips definitely were the best we have come across thus far since visiting Kilkenny, Limerick, and Mayo. The star of the meal was the lamb loin which was on dinner special that night at what we thought was 15.5 euros. The dish is one I would eat again and again if I could. It had cut crispy onions on top of lamb loin which was on top of a bed of mashed potatoes. On the side there were peas, stuffing, and pureed squash. It was all so delicious and we finished every last bite since we hadn't eaten since the morning. If I was staying in Ennis and not just passing through I would have gone back the next day for lunch. If you are in Ennis or passing through take time to stop here it is worth the time.
