Insomnia Coffee Company - Loughboy
Kilkenny
12/12/2023: A lovely little coffee spot on the outskirts of Kilkenny. A very tastefully decorated cafe with ample space. Never a problem getting a seat and it's generally a peaceful spot. The food selection is better than the standard coffee shop fare and the coffee is not half bad either. The staff always have a smile and are always welcoming. Overall it makes for a very pleasant experience. Fully recommended.
28/11/2023: Great place to stop off on a working break. There is always space, its never too loud and the staff are always pleasant.

Doppio Café & Restaurant
Kilkenny
14/10/2024: Excellent.. small menu. Great quality. Clean. Friendly and helpful service.. highly recommended
10/10/2024: Great lattes and okay food. The Norwegian Eggs were a great portion size and they didn't skimp on the smoked salmon. But there was an weird acidic taste on the poached eggs. At first I thought it might be the salmon or spinach but tasting everything separately, it was the eggs. Very friendly staff. I'd definitely come back but probably wouldn't get poached eggs again. The New York cheesecake was just okay.

Primo
Kilkenny
01/11/2024: Pizza flavors were great! Delivery fast! But crust was very soggy, assuming from the extra italian sausage.
20/10/2024: Just back from a sit down meal with my family. Waited at the counter to be told “Wait 2 minutes”.
After a girl picked up menus, looked at us and walked to a table we assumed it was for us. As we looked at the menu we witnessed a waitress wipe down the seats next to us and then proceeded to wipe down the table after using the same cloth. After a short wait we ordered our food, starters and mains.
We got our starters. Two garlic breads with cheese which were soaking in grease! Meatballs which were subpar and sauce overflowing in the dish.
After finishing our starters we waited another 20 minutes to be served our mains.
My two family members got their mains and I waited for mine. A server eventually came over to ask did we want anything else and I responded with I’m still waiting on my main.
She rolled her eyes and left!
After waiting another 10 minutes I asked another server about my main (she was very polite and told me she will see what’s going on)!
The previous girl who took our orders came back after 10 minutes to say “it’s my fault it’ll be as fast as possible coming out it’s my fault so…” and just stopped speaking.
The carbonara my two family members got was also destroyed in grease! It was pooling at the bottom of the bowl!
My food eventually came out. Flavourless and coated in tomato sauce that looked like it came from a tin.
No apology when leaving! We will not be back!
