The Fig Tree Restaurant
Kilkenny
02/11/2025: Traditional Irish cooked breakfast. Handy city centre location. Plenty of room. Seating on two floors
28/10/2025: We had a lovely experience in this restaurant. The place is well-located in the heart of the town. It is very spacious but it does not compromise the cozy vibe the restaurant gives. The breakfast we ordered was absolutely divine (those rashers were amazing!) Last but not least, the staff were just so friendly. We were just happily eating all the way. Definitely coming back!

The Lime Tree cafe & restaurant
04/10/2025: Busy spot with good selection on menu. Main courses €15-20.
05/09/2025: Dropped in here on a short visit to Castlecomer. While the village/town was lovely and clearly developing well with quality new andrestored shopfronts and sensetive restoration of many buildings, but the star of the 'show' for our visit was the Limetree. Food was fresh and very tasty, service was very friendly and efficient. I cant say much about the atmosphere as we ate outside but everyone seemd to be enjoying the Limetree as much as we did. First Class!
PS. Good value too.

Arán Artisan Bakery & Bistro
Kilkenny
27/10/2025: We came to Kilkenny for the food festival and came across here on our first day as we were staying nearby. The absolute best 👌 it's so so good! We didn't go anywhere else for coffee or pastries. The coffee is fab, the breads and pastries are unreal and we had breakfast on our last morning at the Bistro. Without a doubt one of the best if not the best breakfast we have ever had. We both had the breakfast sambos and it was amazing. Fab food, excellent service and just a gem of a place. Credit to all who work there.
