The best restaurants in Carlow

12/06/2025: Not much off licence option available

04/05/2025: Nicest pint of Guinness in the town

12/05/2025: Lovely cakes and homemade breads. Very reasonable prices.

18/03/2025: Great place to have coffee and great selection of cakes and sandwiches, we go there regularly,the staff are very friendly, I would highly recommend a visit ,it's a great meeting place

26/07/2025: Food overpriced and over hyped some staff on the rude side

19/07/2025: This review is for the restaurant/pub only – we did not stay at the hotel. We stopped in for a quick lunch at the 1808 Brasserie bar yesterday while passing through on the way to Rosslare, and unfortunately, we were very disappointed with the food and service. My partner ordered the buffalo chicken wrap, which arrived ice cold and even raw in parts. When we brought this to the staff’s attention, there was little concern shown, and surprisingly, the floor manager didn’t come over at any point to apologise or check in. The waitress did offer to replace the dish, which we appreciated, but we declined. Instead, as a “token of apology,” we were brought a cold ham and cucumber sandwich along with some overcooked chips – which honestly just added to the awkwardness of the situation. The beef sandwich was also below par. We left feeling quite let down by the whole experience and would hesitate to return based on this visit.

11/07/2025: Very disappointed with this hotel. The room was unair-conditioned, stiflingly hot, and the window couldn't be opened properly, only 5 cm. The staff was very nice and the food was decent.

08/07/2025: Beautiful hotel...excellent dinner, knowledgeable staff...shame we only spent one night there... Lorena

28/05/2025: Ordered a cake for my daughters 21st from the quigleys website. Very easy process and cake was absolutely beautiful. Looked great and tasted great. Couldnt have been happier. Really recommend to anyone who is considering using them. Thank you very much quigleys.

17/07/2025: Potion are getting smaller & prices are going up😵

29/04/2025: For some reason they put sweet and sour sauce on a chicken kebab. Pick a lane!

07/06/2025: The jam and cream doughnut is the best I think I've ever had - and huge too! Friendly staff, I'll definitely be back!

24/05/2025: Lovely cafe here in Carlow lovely staff and the best coffee, I have a white chocolate latte and it’s the best had it in Starbucks didn’t do the same thing as Keane latte

12/07/2025: Great spot for a drink or a bit to eat.

12/07/2025: Only went for breakfast. Great choice and was scrumptious. Eggs Benidict recommend.

20/06/2025: Tasty chippers Friendly, efficient staff Great takeaway

14/05/2025: Gone very pricey and food quality bad

11/06/2025: Good option for a decent thai lunch menu. Food delivered quickly once your order was taken. We were there on June 9th and it seemed like the whole dining room was being left to 1 female member of staff, while the male employee just floated about. She was efficient in serving the multiple tables.

04/04/2025: 11 of us had dinner in lemongrass last Sunday "mothers day" the food was beautiful.. however there was an add on charge of 30 euro for booking a table for 6 or more people.. we weren't informed of this when making the booking , it was pointed out on the front cover of the menu when I questioned it.. it is not visible when viewing the menu online.. I thought it was a very sneaky add on. It would have been 3 separate tables when booking had this been pointed out... I don't see how this applies when the same amount of people are being served whether it be 1 or 3 tables.. we would have been leaving the same amount in a tip but not any more when dining there.. it nice to leave it of your own free will rather than being compelled to do so.. Just to be aware of this for a large family when booking your table...

24/06/2025: Delay in service due to staff to busy chatting. Prices displayed on menu more expensive than prices online. When I explained this to the manager she said that it's like that over a year and the were trying to get it changed online to up to date prices. I think this is a consumer writes issue. Food was fine. There were 3 staff on but didn't seem to be and organisation in place got our food before our drinks.

25/05/2025: We’ve been to the restaurant twice for brunch Great service, the staff are so attentive and the food was delicious, the portion sizes are good, just the right amount The sourdough bread is to die for

03/06/2025: THE BEST PIZZA PLACE!!!! 💕 My fav place to get pizza, the ham and pineapple pizza is the best u need to get chips they are literally covered in salt!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

29/04/2025: Prices are extortionate compared to most takeaways not ALL but MOST, Chinese across the rd better value a meal €10 closed Tuesdays food should be roasting and fresh, mostly cold odd time enjoyable only get this when need to friendly staff nice people working there but i wouldn't class it price worthy!! Prices online, different than chipper itself (higher in chipper? Mince taco only good thing here €7 collect online €8 to order in shop to collect 1/4 €6.70 collect paid online €7 in shop!! We all need to stop feeding these Prices as there is better places/prices! Definitely stick to Roosters In bagelstown longer drive 5* food 😋 Thanks for reading
