Mullichain Cafe


11/11/2024: Nice place near the river. It’s at the border of Carlow and Kilkenny county. Place is around 35-40 min drive from Carlow town. They had lots of vegetarian options and taste was nice. Staff were nice and experienced. Portions was also nice enough and price was also not too bad.
18/10/2024: Always a pleasure to visit Staff are very polite and friendly

The Pint Depot


Muine bheag
04/12/2024: A Hidden Gem on the Way to Kilkenny If you find yourself journeying to the enchanting city of Kilkenny, there's a must-visit stop along the way that will make your trip even more memorable. Tucked just off the main road, this bar exudes charm, warmth, and an inviting atmosphere that’s hard to match. From the moment you step through the door, the staff sets the tone for an exceptional experience. Friendly, attentive, and brimming with genuine Irish hospitality, they make you feel like a welcome guest rather than a fleeting traveler. Whether it’s a quick pint or a hearty meal, their service is second to none, anticipating your needs with an effortless grace that many establishments aspire to but few achieve. The interior strikes a perfect balance between rustic coziness and modern comfort. Think wooden beams, warm lighting, and snug corners ideal for a quiet conversation, paired with a lively bar area buzzing with cheerful locals and fellow travelers. The menu features a delightful mix of Irish classics, with a drinks selection that caters to all tastes. Whether you're in the mood for a perfectly poured Guinness, a crisp cider, or something more adventurous, you won't be disappointed. This bar is more than just a pitstop; it’s an experience that enhances your journey. If you're on the road to Kilkenny, take the time to pull over and immerse yourself in a slice of authentic Irish hospitality. You’ll leave refreshed, with a smile on your face, and maybe even a story or two to share from this unforgettable waypoint.

Caffe 500


Carlow
11/11/2024: Nice, cozy, delicious and in general truly Italian place in the city. The best pizza which you can find here, and the REAL DEAL PROSECCO here! Tasty beer, good cocktails (if you decided to have a drink and dinner before you go out, as I’m usually doing 😁). Amazingly delicious deserts, especially cheesecake and tiramisu 🥹🩵 Totally recommend, if you want to grab a piece of Italy in your daily life 🍕🍝🍨
09/11/2024: En la ruta de Portlaoise a Wexford parada aquí para comer. Estoy encantado de haberlo hecho. Pedimos champiñones seguidos de pasta. Exquisito. Muy buenos precios también. Todo sobre esto - mi primera visita a Café 500 - fue excelente. Volveré a pasar por aquí.

Delta Sensory Gardens


Carlow
13/11/2024: Hoping to visit again next spring.
29/10/2024: What a gorgeous peaceful place. Visited here on October mid term and it was so worth doing while we were staying in Carlow for the night. Lovely informative gent on reception too. Only €6 for adults and no charge for children. We loved the halloween themed scavenger hunt. What an asset to Carlow, only sorry it's not closer to our home in Wicklow. 5 stars.

Clashganny House


10/08/2024: Fabulous food, great staff & lovely red & white "wine of the season". Never fails to impress. Main difficulty is deciding what to order.
02/08/2024: We had our wedding meal for 26 people in Clashganny in June and everything was exceptional - from the food to the atmosphere and decorations, the drinks and the setting. Karen and Rob were excellent hosts and their team was top tier. Every single guest was raving about the whole experience. Such a special place to have had our wedding meal!

Aboretum


Carlow
24/11/2024: Absolutely love this place from the food to the shopping and the little walk but today they definitely could have done with more tills in the food area, the que was that long our food was cold before we got to pay for it and then eat it... there was 1 male manager in the food area I gathered he was abit stressed but certainly didn't like how he abruptly spoke at one of the female staff members to start serving on the till when she was assisting an elderly gentleman (and there was someone on the till so it was not huge deal that she jumped on immediately).
20/11/2024: What a fabulous place to pass an hour or two. Brilliant selection of items to choose from and very competitively priced. Would highly recommend a visit!!!
