24/05/2025: Very ignorant, power tripping, condescending male manager/owner in the back beer garden when approaching paying complying customers. There is a way to talk to people but small man syndrome is an awful thing. plenty pubs In Kk, avoid here

Langtons John Street Tearooms
Kilkenny
04/07/2025: Great service, the lady was very kind and super helpful. Wonderful Tea Room, excellent tea and carrot cake!
21/06/2025: I live in Kilkenny and choose Langtons for breakfast with a few family members for a catch up we arrived and were seated at 10 45 am Saturday 15th March 2025, a lovely waitress came to our table we gave in our order,Tea and Toast arrived very quickly but from their the wait began,at 11:35 2 Raw (fried ?) Eggs were handed to one family member, so by that time the toast and tea was cold,,2 breakfast called the Works was what we could only describe as inedible,followed by scrambled egg which was cold and sat on a slice of bread which made the bread so wet and cold it was awful to say someone would be expected to butter let alone eat a sloppy slice of bread, next was steak and 2 poached eggs by this stage we called over the waitress and showed her the 2 poached Eggs were truly and utterly raw ,we did point out politely the rest of our foods cold potatoes cubes , burnt sausages ,bacon slices were like rubber and full of grease, black an white pudding was rock solid over cooked ,the waitress apologised and informed us that we would not be charged for the steak and raw eggs,the list is endless, over all this was a very disappointing experience from a place that I always highly recommended to family and visiting friends but sadly I won't be recommending Langtons food to family/ visitors again. Might I add the waitresses were lovely...From a very disappointed customer....NB...3 months after posting my review, i recieved an email informing me of a Responce from owner.... A Blank Responce !!! Lovely Treatment...

04/07/2025: En un viaje reciente a Kilkenny, tuve la suerte de pasar por el bar Marble City para almorzar. He visitado Kilkenny en muchas ocasiones pero nunca había comido aquí antes. Kevin, que era agradable, conversador y todo un caballero, me sirvió una comida deliciosa. Esto hizo que mi experiencia fuera muy placentera y tengo toda la intención de volver a venir aquí para comer.

The Coffee Pot
Kilkenny
09/08/2024: The carrot cake was delicious but to be honest the slice was very thin for the price.
27/07/2024: Amazing coffee ❤️, but the best thing about this place is the homemade desserts. I would go there every day if I was living in Kilkenny. The service it was great too. I would recommend 👌 😌

Caesar's Takeaway
Kilkenny
05/04/2025: Great service, friendly staff, hot fresh food.
Extensive menu with something for everyone.
Delivery service is the best in kilkenny, only chipper that I have ordered from that delivers within the timeframe that is given and when the food arrives, it’s hot and the order is correct.
Wouldn’t go anywhere else when thinking of burgers and chips.
23/03/2025: Best take away in Kilkenny, nice food , best taco chips and friendly workers !

Quigleys Cafe, Bakery & Deli
Kilkenny
24/07/2025: Absolutely blown away by the cake Quigley’s made for my wife’s birthday!
It looked stunning, tasted incredible, and was a real showstopper at the party. Everyone was asking where we got it from and my wife couldn’t have been happier!
What made it even better was how quick and easy their online ordering service was. Simple to navigate, great communication, and everything was ready exactly as promised.
Massive thanks to the whole team at Quigley’s for making the day extra special. We’ll definitely be ordering again for the next occasion! 🎂👏
02/07/2025: Excellent soda bread! Came in for a bowl of soup (also very nice) and liked the bread so much we got a loaf for home. The innner covered courtyard is really nice as well.

Mario's Diner
Kilkenny
21/07/2025: Always friendly fast service and great food
25/05/2025: Restaurant is very nicely decorated, staff are friendly and efficient, but just my opinion the food wasn't nice and not impressed with the menu, much preferred the old menu much more choice. Portions a lot smaller and very expensive for what you get. I won't be rushing back unfortunately and I always loved Mario's 😔

Breathnach's
Kilkenny
24/02/2025: A lovely place for a drink, staff very friendly, we would recommend this bar.
02/02/2025: We went with our hen party and left disappointed. One of our party was allergic to mushrooms and made this clear, yet when her steak arrived it had mushroom on it. When she sent it back the new steak was burnt. When this was pointed out the staff member replied "okay" and nothing was done. She felt like she was being an annoyance, yet it was the staff who couldn't get her order correct and were making her feel that way.
Those who ordered steak were asked how they liked it done but all steaks were cooked the same.
One of our friends also waiting a very long time, 40+ mins for her food, we were all eating while she was there with nothing for ages.
We were also overcharged and had to correct the staff and again were made to feel like an annoyance.
As a Kilkenny local I hadn't ever been to Breatnachs and this experience wouldn't entice me back.
