The Wandering Elk in Portlaoise

Tasty sandwiches, nice staff, hard to fault!

Fabulous coffee and staff are efficient and super nice.

27/10! Incredible sandwiches and great coffee

Ordered 50euro worth of food ..brisket beef toasties and nachos to share..and coffees...food ready on time for collection. Best toasties we have ever had. Great flavour...highly recommend. Will find reasons to go to Portlaoise just for this food...well done to staff!!

From the beginning to the end A-mazing! Friendly staff, gorgoues toasties with little tub of sauce and to top it all off the right amount of caramel in my caramel Latte .. delcious 🥰😍 the taste of everything 10/10! Love that I live so close ! Definitely be back!

Omw great toasties 🤩 Pulled pork & Tex mex are highly recommended Coffee also great. Hot chocolate a bit more on the water side (personally prefer a creamy hot chocolate)

We were midway driving back to Dublin airport and pitstop at The Wandering Elk. The sour dough bread was amazing and toasted at the right texture that it doesn’t cut your mouth. The smashed avocado is super fresh. This restaurant is highly recommended by me, even the Karen of Karens wouldn’t even think of complaining to the manager. Minimalistic decorations on the wall, good placements. Go now.

Food and coffee are good. Fine for me to get a takeaway of either. Seating looks uncomfortable. However, I wouldn’t bring my young children in here. Extremely inappropriate/offensive music being played for a cafe.

I got the BBQ Pulled Pork toasted sandwich. It was divine. The nicest thing I’ve had in ages. The pork was juicy and tender. Plenty cheese and lovely pickled slaw. Good value as well. If you want a break from chicken fillet rolls. This is the place to go. Your tastebuds will thank you. Plus it’s good to support these small independent places. I’ll be back!

My favourite coffee in Portlaoise and also does nice pastries for on the go.
