The Batch Loaf in Monaghan

The food is excellent. The staff are wonderful. Excellent restaurant.

The most amazing meal, honestly when the sauce that came with the chicken touched my tongue my taste buds exploded. Truly lovely helpful staff. One of my favourite places to visit.

The food was amazing and the service was excellent. I had the burger with goats cheese and red onion jam it was delicious. Everyones meals looked great.

We stopped off here for an impromptu pit stop on the way home from the north. The lady took our booking on the phone and we were seated quickly on arrival. The decor is amazing, quirky and full of past reminders of this place as a bakery in a previous life. Lorraine served us and was very pleasant throughout. She’s one of those people who just excels at her job. Starter of crab meat on their speciality batch loaf doesn’t sound too exciting but it was actually divine. 10/10 as one of the nicest starters I’ve had in a long time Mains were a beautiful chicken dish with Bombay potatoes, and mine was a monkfish and prawn combo. Both were magnificent, and washed down with a couple of glasses of Zinfandel rose which was superb. Will definitely be back. Great credit to the ownership and staff here, well done

Quality food, Excellent service, Great staff. Thank you to all. Already looking forward to our next visit.

Fsntastic would highly recommend. Food, hospitality and atmosphere amazing. A must if you are ever in Monaghan

Great food. We had a beautiful meal. Another great restaurant that Monaghan Town has to offer. Definitely worth visiting.

Excellent quality food and excellent staff. Definitely worth a visit

Beautiful food and experience. The staff were very accommodating to make the dishes vegan and it was still excellent quality.

The Batch loaf is officially the best restaurant we have ever eaten in and that’s what makes us keep coming back because no matter how long it is between visits, the quality and standard of the food never changes. We are extremely fussy so they are getting our 10 out of 10. The taste of the food is incredible! And they never take off the chicken supreme with the Bombay potatoes and the creamy curry sauce and that is our favourite dish-We appreciate that they keep the concrete favourites on their menu that people want and don’t try to adapt it to a crazy choice of meals that no one has ever heard of or can even understand what they are - I hate it when restaurants try to go Michelin style when they are superb as they were - all the people want is good food and a menu they can read. So we like the way the menu isn’t complicated but an excellent choice of meals and when the food comes, the presentation is outstanding and the quality and taste is off the scale delicious!! We are from Northern Ireland and we tell everybody to go to Monaghan to the batch loaf because it has to be tasted to be believed. Finally, I just want to say how lovely and professional all of the staff are every time we go. Not to mention how quirky the restaurant interiors are, which I love. It all just makes the whole experience wonderful and one that you just want to repeat as soon as possible again! So if you haven’t been to the batch loaf, you need to go on a book a table because you will want to go back again and again! We just wish it was closer!
