Treacy's Bar & Restaurant
17/07/2025: Great spot for a one night motorhome stop over on your travels down through Ireland, the facilities, the staff and the atmosphere were very good. Also doggy friendly.
17/07/2025: This is a hidden gem just off the motorway on your way to Dublin. Beats anywhere else to stop hands down. Service is quick too and you get a proper meal. Menu is vast and servings are very generous. Highly recommended and you don't need to go into a town to get to it. It's essentially like a slip road off the motorway.

Rio's Takeaway & Wood Fired Pizzeria

21/07/2025: Went in. Firstly the place look immaculate. I’ve been in a lot of takeaways but this one is amazing. I got the pepperoni pizza. A woodfire pizza you don’t usually get down here in Portarlington. But this blew me away. Cannot wait to get back to have again and again
19/07/2025: The best pizza in Portarlington..All of their food is 10/10 not just the pizza!! Recommend trying everything!!🤩🤩

Mueller and O'Connell Bakery
Abbeyleix
17/06/2025: We stopped off on our way to heywood gardens. We got sausage rolls , cakes and coffee. I see now why there's a queue. The sausage rolls are so tasty.
10/06/2025: Lovely fresh food and bread here. Staff are always lovely and smiling.
But... if they're going to be charging €7.90 for a ham,cheese and onion toastie it needs more ham than this, I'll try again next time in case this is a once off and re edit this.

The Heritage Golf Resort
Killenard
28/06/2025: Golf course is class.
Driving range is run down and we were not allowed hit drivers in the driving range because there is houses close. Kind of defeats the whole purpose of a driving range but the golf course was very well designed and maintained.
Thanks for having us.
22/06/2025: Matured in to a fantastic Golf Course with well maintained greens and landscaping…wish I could give my golf 5stars….!

Croft Alley
Portlaoise
17/07/2025: What a lovely spot in portlaoise that I seemed to never notice before. The pizza here is incredible. The price is actually reasonable for the quality of pizza. You can get the pizza to takeaway which I have done a few times now and it's quite speedy. My only little problem is that the pasta dishes are quite small for the price.
15/07/2025: I like my pizzas and was looking forward to trying one here. The toppings were plentiful, and the pizza was cooked perfectly.

Eddie Rocket's
Portlaoise
13/06/2025: Eddies used to be such a treat, but it seems like standards are slipping slightly. I wanted a fried egg on my burger. Was told it could not be done. The chicken burger when it arrived was thin and it turns out that they put two mini fillets in there instead of a regular fillet. The fries were good but not spectacular. The atmosphere was classic Eddies, and service was very good, apart from fried-egg-gate.
09/06/2025: Amazing place, lovely staff and the most delicious Buffalo Wings I’ve ever eaten 🥰

08/06/2025: Tasting menu was delicious. Good value. Great service. Would recommend if you’re in the area and if you’re not - worth a detour!

Brew Cafe
Portlaoise
10/07/2025: What a lovely find. Came for breakfast. Food was delicious and portions were huge!!
07/06/2025: Lovely place to go , it can get very busy though so be prepared to wait. I can't fault their service or their food. The only thing that let it down was the cakes. We ordered a slice of carrot cake to go and it was 7.50 for a fairly small piece. Very pricey. Prices in general are fairly high compared to other places.
