The best restaurants in Kildare

02/06/2025: Staff were so rude when we went in and asked for a table. It’s suppose to be “dog friendly” but when we asked for a table for 2 with a dog the waiter rolled her eyes and asked us if we were serious. When the waiter showed us to our table we sat down and we were then asked to move as our dog was in the way.

30/05/2025: Came in for lunch today and felt as if I was inconveniencing staff and that I wasn’t welcome. Sat outside, firstly staff started to sweep under my table and then proceeded to sweep under my chair and at my feet. They then proceeded to hit me with a chair when pulling it out.(For the business owner/managers reading this take heed that me and my partner both have worked in management in hospitality before! We are in claims crisis your staff need to be more careful before something more serious happens.) I got up after the chair hit me which was very noticeable as it made a sound, all she said was “are you done?”. Didn’t get a simple sorry or any form of apology for hitting me with the chair. Very rude and unwelcoming it was 20 minutes before your advertised closing time so I can’t fathom why the staff have such an attitude. I’ve worked in the industry before and understand closing procedures for restaurants but please don’t clean around and under customers while they’re trying to eat/drink the items they purchased. I felt like I was more of an inconvenience to staff when I try to go out of my way to shop in local spots instead of chain brands. All it shows me is either the staff don’t care or else don’t want to be there unfortunately! I will not be returning or recommending this business after this when there are so many options in the town, especially when staff are hitting furniture into my back when I have prior back problems. If management can explain why staff are okay to clean under customers while they’re eating/drinking I would love to know why? No spillages or dirt under me as well so not a safety or hygiene issue…..

01/04/2025: Amazing service and food is great but wats even better is there Dubai chocolate 🍫 definitely my favourite place to chill wit a friend for a relaxing cup of tea and a sweet treat whild the kids are in school

29/04/2025: The food was delicious. We tried their spicy biriyani, burger and grilled chicken. The grilled chicken comes with either rice or nan. You can choose the spice levels as per your preferences. They also have kids menu. They have very less options for cool drinks.

13/04/2025: For unknown reasons they have removed beef from their menu .. very disappointing

07/04/2025: Class bar..The atmosphere is great, few pints and a game of darts on a Friday night is deadly. 🎯

25/01/2025: Dirt stay away, got a battered sausage , that's not sausage meat . Gray thing it was trust me don't waste ur money.

30/12/2024: Best food in kildare and friendly staff

20/03/2025: We have recently moved to Newbridge and used Dora Mays catering for hosting friends and family. The sandwiches were so fresh and delicious. We got hot food also and they delivered it in a hot dish that we lit and kept the food hot. I have used them twice now and will use them in the future. Thanks very much

27/01/2025: I cannot recommend Dora Mays Catering enough. She took an order last minute and the service was amazing. The sandwich platters are to die for and everyone commented on how good they were and how fresh the bread was. I will definitely be ordering again.

01/06/2025: Excellent service, friendly staff and good food

30/04/2025: Gone very expensive of late ..nuisance u can't pay with card ,food normally good

06/05/2025: In a shopping centre. Pay parking.

04/05/2025: Great Film, But Premium Experience Fell Short I recently visited odeon newbridge to catch a highly anticipated film and opted for the premium seating to enjoy a more comfortable and upscale experience. While the movie itself did not disappoint, the condition of the theater did. The seat I was assigned in the premium section was noticeably dirty—hardly what you'd expect after paying extra for a "luxury" experience.

04/10/2024: Did not have any food, but beer was great staff friendly

13/04/2025: Great coffee. And great Lemon Drizzle Cake! Used my travel mug and filled it. Really nice staff

19/12/2024: Money hungry owner, 10 coffees and you now only receive 1 stamp on their rewards app. The owner also doesn't understand the definition of NO when you decline a pastry.

25/05/2025: Good food and nice setting. Reasonably priced BUT the service was very slow, I noticed another table actually walked out after being seated for over 10 minutes without anyone taking their order for food or drinks. It was frustrating to watch because it’s clear the place has potential, but they’re losing customers due to poor / slow speed of service. Hopefully they can improve this, because everything else was enjoyable

15/05/2025: First for the people that say it's pricey here. Sometimes You get what you pay for . I have been here about 4 times over the last 6 months when going by. It's never let me down. Today may 15th 9am a wonderful friendly girl server was really bright cheerful and most important a little bit of good humour...Thank you for the great service. Definitely be back some weekend for the hash breakfast 🍳
