The best restaurants in Carlow

06/04/2025: The best service in Ireland! Food is great and a very pleasant place. Gluten free pizza is 100% for coeliac. Real Italian caffe.

20/03/2025: Traditional carbonara was very saulty, my friend got the lasagne and said it was lovely. Apart from that the atmosphere and service was excellent.

12/04/2025: Tuve que venir aquí para escribir una crítica ya que me quedé boquiabierto sobre el frente del personal de la casa en este establecimiento. He frecuentado este restaurante muchas veces en los últimos años y me gustaría pensar que soy un cliente muy fiel. Sin embargo, esta noche, llegamos para mi cena de cumpleaños y debido a que nadie tiene la culpa de nuestro tamaño de fiesta se redujo considerablemente (muerte en la familia). El frente del administrador de la casa era muy grosero y me miraba como si tuviera diez cabezas! Ella aconsejó que podría haber vendido la mesa diez veces, lo que entiendo hasta cierto punto, pero su tono y estatura era muy degradante! Casi me voy. Sin embargo, la camarera y la comida era muy agradable, pero toda la experiencia se puso fuera de la extremadamente grosera bienvenida! Me preguntaría si volvería a venir a pesar de la comida por lo increíblemente incómodo que me sentí.

11/04/2025: We had a wonderful evening, everything was exceptional! And a very big thank you to Abbie who was so friendly, excellent customer service and knew both the drinks and the food menus and was able to make some very delicious recommendations. But all the staff were extremely nice.

09/03/2025: Absolutamente terrible establecimiento. Nos quedamos esperando a que nos sentaran a pesar de que solo estaba medio lleno y dos de las chicas que trabajaban allí se quedaron hablando y riendo en el bar. Cuando finalmente nos sentamos la chica se alejó inmediatamente sin preguntar si queríamos una copa mientras miraba el menú. Una chica diferente vino a tomar el pedido de bebidas y estaba tan desinteresada y grosera que decidimos irnos. No vamos a volver y vamos a disuadir a amigos y familiares de ir allí. Terrible atención al cliente y personal muy poco profesional.
