Vanilla Pod in Kells

Lovely atmosphere. Quality of the ingredients was high and the food was tasty. Unfortunately though, 3 of us felt that our meals were quite small. Mentioned it to staff (who are very nice to be fair) and was simply told "sorry about that. Unfortunately though, it's not a nice experience to leave a restaurant hungry after paying around the €30 mark for a plate of food, hence the 3 star review. Had the pork tomahawk, salmon and duck.

Took a chance on a free table on a very busy St Patrick's day at the Vanilla Pod. We received a friendly welcome, were seated immediately and orders taken promptly. I enjoyed the goats cheese and peach tartlet and my friend had the steamed asion inspired pancakes. While the pancakes did arrive in a steamer they were not warm and the separate dish for the filling was a surprise. Main course was salmon and slow cooked beef, both of which were very flavourful and filling. Another surprise was the shared 'deconstructed' hazelnut meringue desert. We expected a roulade type meringue! Overall a very tasty and enjoyable meal. The only thing which we found strange was that the hanging area for coats (which were kindly taken as we were seated) was in a public area outside the toilets, so maybe not a secure place 🤔 .

A beautiful place and staff were very patient and very good many thanks
