Johnseys Friendly Store in Limerick

29/07/2025: Myself and my wife visited here recently on a recommendation of a friend. I sat i. The cozy coffee shop while herself went about breaking the bank. The owner was very warm and welcoming gent who acknowledged everyone who came through the door. The plant selection in the centre was varied and we'll priced and again,said owner spent time when needed to answer questions and offer advice. 3 missions accomplished here..Wife got plants.. Bank still in one piece and finally.. I got to sit with a very nice cuppa in the lovely tea room stress free😄😄. One note though..the Garden center is beside a dual carriageway in between 2 roundabouts so if it's your 1st visit..keep your eyes peeled...!

07/06/2025: Went today with my mum for breakfast/brunch. We both ordered omlettes and soda bread with tea/coffee. We were so happy with the food it was really lovely and my coffee was too! Unfortunately the whole experience was dampened by the service from one younger woman behind the counter who told us there was no soda bread a few minutes after our order which is fine we both said we'd have the brown slice bread instead which was stated on the menu as toasted. When the food came out the bread wasn't toasted and when we asked if we could have it toasted the plates were taken from our tables with a 'RIGHT' & swift walk away from our table with a massive huff from the server at the toaster and I then saw her speak to the other lady working there who then brought us the toast back! For such a simple and polite ask her mannerisms and attitude really upset my mum and I as if we were rude about it we'd have expected that response but we were both in shock! She really needs to be spoken to because every other person we encountered was so lovely and the food and garden center is just fab! I would still go back as it is the first time I've had bad customer service here and the others were lovely but it did upset me enough to leave a review!
