13/11/2025: Superb sandwiches and coffee. Service was excellent. Friendly staff. Will return. Well done!!It's not often a freshly-made sandwich is served these days.

15/02/2026: By far the best Indian Restaurant I have been to. Very accessible as they have a lift that takes you straight up to the restaurant. Inside, there is a wine bar, lovely decor and the music was really on par with everything. I ordered a Mango Lassi, which was creamy and not overly sweet, a chicken korma, by far the best I've ever had, and a side of peshwari naan. Our meal also came with poppadoms and a selection of dips. The staff were polite, service was great, a new fav for a date night!

14/02/2026: It was my fav place in Ennis but long time ago the quality change immensely and now it's very poor. Doesn't worth it.

23/11/2025: I'm sorry to say that the food was very mediocre, not authentic at all (Aldis own brand Italian meals are better). Waitresses chewing gum and use of frozen chicken wasn't appreciated neither. We had to ask twice for the parmesan cheese and was given about two teaspoons. We spent 48 euros for our two main meals, one glass of wine and a small bottle of Heineken lager.

10/11/2025: Some of the best Italian food I have had in years. Didn't expect it to be as good. Sea food chowder was amazing along with the other meals. Recommend the red sauce over the pesto for more flavor. All food is made to order so plan ahead for a bit of a wait for food after you order. House red is nice also

30/10/2025: Food here is the best you can get in Ennis, The staff here are so nice and helpful. I recommend the sweet and sour chicken and sizzling beef as they are just delicious. In fact everything here is delicious and let loose. 10/10

18/09/2025: Lovely meal and friendly staff

18/10/2025: Had a great first time experience here, lovely little spot, the food (I had the full Irish) was excellent, perfectly cooked. Service staff were working hard but very attentive. I also had the apple pie - just do that :) They have tables availible in the main pub if you see it full, so just ask. Highly recommend this place for great atmosphere, tasty food and great staff, this is how it should be done. Be aware there are limited Gluten free options.

22/07/2025: Nice spot for quick pint in the beer garden with the dogs Was confirmed couldn't sit inside with the dogs, no issue, but as we left we noticed another dog that arrived at same time was still sat inside - must have been a local so different rules apply.

10/10/2025: Great pastries. Really nice staff. One of my favorite spots in Ennis

28/09/2025: The bread aection is a bit limited. I had the Guinness bread with a cappuccino and enjoyed them both. There was also a nice selection of pastries, salads, hot and cold sandwiches but didn't have any. Staff is courteous and efficient.

16/11/2025: Fantastic food and really good service. Staff are so welcoming and really really helpful. Great with our kids - recommended

17/10/2025: Everything was great. My son was especially delighted.

15/01/2026: I love the food here. Unlike other Asian restaurants in Ireland, this one is fresh and excellent tasting! Try the Prawn Chop Suey!

04/01/2026: The food was brilliant, and the young waitress who attended us was really friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!

18/12/2025: Lovely food and very friendly staff, more lively than normal as it's Christmas

07/12/2025: We came to Ennis for the day as we just wanted to do something different. As we had no idea of where to eat we walked around and found The Alley Asia. We were unsure at first as there was very little people inside but we came in and we were greeted with a smile and the waiter knew his job, gave us the menus and gave us time to decide. The meal was way beyond our expectations. It came out hot, freshly cooked and the right size portions. It was a very satisfying meal. While we were there a steady flow of people came in either for takeaway or sitting in. We would highly recommend The Alley Asia. We will be back again. Even thinking about our meal our mouth is watering.

22/12/2025: Very good place to enjoy with friends

14/11/2025: Wonderful bar, lovely staff, warm atmosphere, open fire, and by far the best pint of Guinness you'll ever have 😉😉😉

17/12/2025: Best Guinness in Ireland. It’s Mothers Milk!

13/10/2025: Definitely don’t miss this gem of a bar. First time visiting this bar and I’ll definitely be back. Staff are so friendly and welcoming also the owner Derek is a pure gentleman. We had an amazing time and can’t wait to get back there.
