29/08/2026: The girl with the glasses on her head was an exemplory worker She was so very nice and funny worker Ive been very socially awkward and she has helped me out so much and made my day. At namo plus

17/07/2026: amazing food and super friendly staff. always the best service every time

27/05/2026: A lovely chipper with delcidious food. The service is excellent. Every time I visit Ireland, I try to stop there for some chips and a chicken wrap!

25/04/2026: This is the best place I’ve ever consumed food. The black pudding supper is stupendously delicious. Ask for Niamh and she will produce you the finest of fried foods in the Republic of Ireland. Come on the rangers RFC number 1.

12/06/2026: Chill spot to have a drink and eat some delicious food. Had an excellent vegan falafel wrap. The vegetables were cooked to perfection. Great staff. Would happily visit again. Oh they make an awesome hand tossed margarita pizza 🍕 😋

11/06/2026: Stayed here for a week. Breakfast was fantastic every day. Staff were all pleasant enough. A special shout out to Zara who went above and beyond every day for us. If you’re staying here, I would reccomend ear plugs, as the windows aren’t the thickest. You can literally hear everything outside. But location is great, car park behind for €5 a day.

13/08/2026: Lovely atmosphere and the bar lady was friendly and helpful.

19/07/2026: Friendly staff, lovely Guinness, plenty of TVs and they charged my phone 😊

05/09/2026: Nice vegan sausage rolls, Snickers slice and coconut latte.

28/08/2026: We had the soup of the day (tomato soup) and the sausage roll; both were hot and very tasty. The service was excellent. We'd gladly come again.

03/07/2026: Very rude and unpleasant server

29/04/2026: Nice sandwiches, fresh great quality ingredients. Would definitely go again if it wasn't so pricey, 13 euros for a sandwich.

25/08/2026: Very tasty and friendly chippy , highly recommend

16/08/2026: 25 minute wait for a simple order, was asked 3 times what my order was when it was relatively quiet. Staff have a crabby attitude as if you’re bothering them going at a snails pace and order was incorrect to top it off. Reading the owners childish responses to similar reviews says it all about their attitude to customers, avoid avoid avoid!

12/08/2026: Cute little cafe serving light lunch and breakfast all day. Great to sit outside on a nice summer day.

13/07/2026: Visited the Café today and was pleasantly impressed. The food was delicious. I also can’t stop thinking about the iced coffee I had, probably one of the nicest yet. Need to come back again for more!!

16/08/2026: We came here for breakfast and we had Avocado Eggs. It was really good, well done, simple and very tasty, we had also some tea with milk. The service was really nice!

27/07/2026: Great fun!! Was here for a hen party... my god the craic was mighty

13/08/2026: The food was delicious and the service was fantastic, my son who is autistic was able to enjoy a calm table and enjoy his meal. Definitely family friendly

09/08/2026: Had dinner was enjoyable, lovely, friendly staff reasonably priced will call again, music Sunday evening, closed on Monday's.

28/06/2026: Staff very helpful, food was great

27/06/2026: We were a group of eight and we were seated very quickly. The service was friendly and fast as well. The restaurant and restrooms were clean. The food was good; in fact, one person in our group ordered pad Thai without peanuts (due to allergies) and another person ordered their dish gluten-free, and there were no problems at all. I would definitely go back and recommend it.

22/06/2026: Best for quick bites and smacks. New M&S opened here. Friendly staff

23/07/2026: We were a long way from home with a toddler in tow and in dire need of a pizza. They sorted us out grandly. Thanks for the Capri Sun!

19/05/2026: Went in here Sat night, got chips and a burger. Came to €10 exactly, tapped and all good. Now I realise they charged €10.50, that's pretty underhanded.. Won't go there again.

15/08/2026: Me , my wife and 3 kids came here for food and a coffee and being honest Ive never been treated so well in a cafe before . Staff were so welcoming and accommodating, the food and coffee were also top notch .

01/08/2026: I heard today Linda is leaving coffee shop I hope it stays open wishing Linda all best for future she will be sadly missed I hope new owner be same as Linda

22/08/2026: Wouldn't eat here ever going through the drive through the chef was out the back door picking his nose. Continued through and stayed going

20/08/2026: Honestly the template of what a KFC should be. Orders ready within 90 seconds (piping hot) , very clean , even the screens are fingerprint free so someone takes pride in their work. Staff are super friendly. This is an example of what every other KFC in the country should strive to be.
