The best restaurants

04/11/2025: A quaint little coffee shop that brings a bit of Brazilian culture to Carlow. The hours are insanely handy for students travelling to school and the owners are amazing! I recommend you try the coxinhas!

02/10/2025: Found that place occasionally! Great coffee, service and snacks!

12/11/2025: Always a great place to visit - Had there hot soup today and it was delicious - Great friendly Staff

10/07/2025: The pies and pastries look lovely in the fridge until the staff stick them in the microwave and destroy the pastry. Guys invest in a toaster oven!

06/01/2026: Vastly improved regarding its prepared meals and butchery meals. Great to see the improvement. I just wish it had scan and go

01/01/2026: The worst kitchen range ever. Got burger meal, but with chips, not mash, about 3 carrot slices and 3 green beans for which i had to throw out and cook my own veg. The chips nearly broke my teeth. This meal wouldnt feed a child. Last time i will ever get one. This is not good eniugh pettitts. Up your game. Money is tight

10/06/2026: I absolutely loved this place, the most unique I've ever visited in Dublin! I walked past it several times during my last stay, almost not noticing, but it was a real surprise. Dinner required a reservation at least a day in advance through the website (I'd tried to get in the night before, but it wasn't possible without a reservation), but it was totally worth it. We ordered a fillet steak and half a roast chicken, all accompanied by sides and fries, and everything was delicious! The place also has a unique atmosphere and several truly unique rooms and corners, making dinner here an experience in every way. This will definitely be a restaurant I'll return to!

25/01/2026: Permanently closed but website and sign still lit up. Has been absorbed by the Celt, none of their decor or menu items survived.

31/10/2025: We had a beautiful lunch in Kenny & Co. Food was very tasty & coffee was delicious! We then treated ourselves to some cookies that were unreal. Highly recommend this lovely spot

22/10/2025: Delicious fresh ingredients, so nice about dietary requirements and lovely, friendly staff. Big shout out to the leek and potato soup.

02/06/2026: Best coffee shop in Howth! Super tasty sandwiches and pizza slices. Great coffee as well! Lovely staff, very friendly and courteous. Highly recommended place !

27/05/2026: Staff were friendly and the food was nice. However, I was not too keen on the coffee — it was extremely strong, and that is coming from someone who normally enjoys strong coffee.

07/12/2025: Great Roadside cafe. Good food at reasonable prices, staff are great and its open late.

20/10/2025: Great trad session here and mighty craic,great pint.

06/07/2025: The Harbour Store is one of Westports little gems. There is a bit of everything here - from milk to ice cream to T-shirts and beach chairs!

02/04/2026: Have been before and it was fine. Had issues but also had praise. However at last, recent wedding, I got a hair in my food so I wasn't the happiest. I didn't complain as I understood it was big wedding n busy but so, not the best experience this time... But i mean others could have eaten n wouldn't even have known!

02/04/2026: I stayed at Fairways Hotel Dundalk for three nights. Overall, the experience was quite positive — the rooms were comfortable, and the front desk staff were very friendly and helpful throughout my stay. However, I was quite disappointed with the restaurant service. One of the staff members, provided consistently poor service — he appeared unfriendly, inattentive, and at times even rude. This significantly affected the dining experience. I hope the hotel can address this, as otherwise it’s a great place to stay.

31/12/2025: Best sandwich of my life. Simply amazing.

30/11/2025: Very good food for a quick snack or lunch. Friendly staff, authentic.

21/08/2025: Really nice menu. Hard to choose because everything sounded nice. The service was great. Everyone was so friendly. Food when it came was excellent. The chips were really good. And the coconut mocha was delicious. Will definitely come back next time we're in Thurles.

20/08/2025: Lovely spot for a coffee and treats yum 🥰🥰

25/08/2025: Absolutely gorgeous little cafe, well run and very welcoming. The food is fab. Ill definitely be back for more.

17/08/2025: Driving from Dublin down to Waterford, I really needed a bite to eat and some good espresso . Stopped here, based on reviews. They don't lie . Wonderful service, cute coffee shop with plenty of seating. Excellent latte , with fresh out of the oven scone. It could not be more perfect! Highly recommend.

20/05/2026: Good food and atmosphere, well done 🌞

17/05/2026: Let us in at 23.41, ordered asap and tried to kick us out 23.51, turned the lights off 23.53. Don’t even bother if it’s near the end of the day. Unbelievable.

14/06/2026: Really enjoyed our takeaway pizzas and pasta and the order arrived quickly - will definitely eat here/order from here again!

14/06/2026: Nice atmosphere and friendly ambiance, though a bit dark for my liking. The food was okay, but I was hoping for a more authentic Italian experience, as some dishes had a noticeable Irish influence. Still, an enjoyable visit overall.
