Hook & Ladder Dooradoyle in Limerick

Hook and ladder in Dooradoyle is very spacious. Didn't feel rushed and food class.

Average place for coffee. Matcha was so grassy - it’s either bad quality matcha or they don’t know how to make it. Oatmeal cookie was fab. It can be packed on busy day. I recall having to wait to be seated and took a while to get the food. By the time I had my full Irish breakfast, it was a bit cold and just doesn’t feel fresh.

Came for breakfast while I waited for a hospital appointment. No option to remove meat from breakfast burrito to make it vegetarian friendly. Ordered scrambled eggs on toast and the toast was barely warm. The table next to me also had the same problem. It was warm bread as opposed to toast. The eggs were more akin to a chopped up omelette than scrambled eggs

The goat's cheese salad came with candied walnuts which were way too sweet, not something that either of us would be able to eat. The rest of that salad was ok. The freshly squeezed orange juice may have been exactly that, but it tasted like an orange juice from concentrate with orange flesh blended in (that's the impression). Chicken Caesar wrap was alright. The pumpkin seed loaf was the highlight, the soup also tasted expectedly well.

Very good but a little expensive
