The best restaurants

23/09/2025: Stopped in for lunch. Fantastic fish & chips. Absolutely the best we have had in Ireland so far. Friendly staff. Worth a stop for sure.

04/09/2025: Great food and amazing service from all the Gals

24/10/2025: Friendly staff, delicious cake, great value, only criticism I could make would be the music is a touch loud?

19/10/2025: I know this place is called The Grumpy Baker but I didn’t realize that was referring to your experience. Absolutely never leave reviews but our experience was so ridiculous I had to say something. My friends and I stopped in for a quick bite to eat. Two of us had tea we had just grabbed from the market but the rest did not. We all ordered a ton of food and coffee. The place was only slightly busy and had plenty of tables open but they all had reserved signs on them. When we asked if we were staying, we mentioned the signs and were told that they only put reserved signs to literally deter people from sitting down because of how busy they get. Red flag number one. Secondly they charge you more for eating there as opposed to take away. Which is just weird. I don’t know if that’s common in Ireland but it certainly isn’t in the States. Red flag number two. When we told the girl we’d eat in, a different staff member mentioned we couldn’t stay with tea from somewhere else. Which we very easily agreed too and said that’s fine we’d take away. The blonde girl taking our order (which I’ve seen other reviews talking about how rude she was) then continued to bring it up after we calmly agreed to leave saying that it’s disrespectful to their business for us to have brought it in. Even after these comments, we completely understood and said it’s fine we’ll take away. We then proceeded to move over to wait for our food only to stand there watching at the very least 6 other people come and go with their food. Almost the entire place was cleared out and we still hadn’t received our order. At that point I was almost positive the blonde girl serving us was doing this on purpose because she walked past us several times and refused to look at us. It seemed that she was more interested in being on her phone and chatting to her coworkers than asking us why we were still waiting. After who only knows how long, a completely separate staff member who was incredibly kind asked us what we were missing. Once we told him our order, he got us out right away, which means that girl just didn’t get our order ready since we watched this employee put our order in the oven. It was so wild. All in all this was a horrible experience and the name of the business says it all. The food wasn’t bad but it definitely wasn’t good enough for us to ever deal with that again. For the rest of our trip, our group could not stop talking about how insane our experience there was. Will not recommend.

Really polite even though they were under pressure. Food was excellent. They brought 2 bowls of vegetables to the table which were absolutely gorgeous. I will visit again when in Sligo.

14/12/2025: In the heart of Glengarriff lies a small café that instantly wins you over with its unpretentious warmth. The incredibly kind owner greets every guest with genuine friendliness and runs the place with a calm that's contagious. Many consider the cappuccino the best around: creamy, aromatic, and carefully prepared. They also offer fresh breakfasts that are simple and delicious, and that's precisely why they're so good. And for those with a sweet tooth, there are homemade cakes that taste of freshly baked goods, craftsmanship, and time. This makes the café a place you'll want to return to—for the coffee, the food, the lovely people, and above all, the atmosphere, which isn't contrived but simply there. We'll definitely be back. ❤️ In the heart of Glengarriff lies a small café that immediately wins you over with its unpretentious warmth.

13/12/2025: We stopped in glengarriff for some breakfast and checked out a few different spots that we saw on Google maps. A few of them were closed so it came down to Sugarloaf Cafe or the lough afoul inn. A quick look at the lough inn's prices made us slowly back away, and as we were doing so the owner came out and called out some incoherent ramblings about soup and breakfast in quite a confrontational way. This, needless to say, converted our backing away into a swift shuffle into Sugarloaf Cafe. Best decision of the day! The lovely, cozy, friendly atmosphere made our morning. The service and food were outstanding but the star of the experience was the warm and welcoming owner who had us smiling and laughing throughout our meal! Despite having 3 tables to serve when we were there, she made time to make conversation with everyone and made us all feel comfortable. Combined with the far more reasonable pricing than the establishment over the road and this experience confirmed 2 repeat customers. If you're looking for a friendly relaxing dining experience in glengarriff the Sugarloaf Cafe is a must try!

08/03/2026: Very nice place with a great food. The staff were very friendly and respectful, very quick to make orders and the food was simply amazing. For sure I wanna back many times.

04/03/2026: Had the double burger and chunky chips, beautiful, and my wife had a steak sandwich. It's the only place I've seen that gives fillet steak in it. It was delicious, and the desserts were beautiful too.

23/01/2026: Wonderful experience, relaxing atmosphere, delicious afternoon tea and so many wonderful photo memories. Thank you!

29/11/2025: Norma cooking is amazing, all homemade, the staff are wonderful and knew what dresses and styles would suit the ladies.

28/02/2026: Went for lunch and it was OK. Good size burger but dry with skinny fries 15€, fish and chips also 15€, lighting was too low for eating day time, felt like midnight in the eating area.
