01/11/2025: Fabulous food, Fabulous staff and service..the cookies are out of this world..and so is the bakewell tart and the cupcakes...basically everything is Fabulous. The Kelly lou bagel 🥯 is well worth having. Absolutely delicious..Great amount of filling. 1 improvement i would suggest add some salad to it then it would be next level

Maldron Hotel Portlaoise
29/10/2025: I spent just one night here with my two kids, and everything was great. The hotel has a great pool, jacuzzi, saunas, ample parking, and a 24-hour restaurant right next to the hotel. The beds are comfortable, and the people working there are nice, so we might return someday. Plus, I booked on their website because it was cheaper than on other platforms, even with my discounts.
28/09/2025: Lovely stay in Maldron last night. Josh was so friendly at reception and even wrote Annie her own key card! Roisin was so chatty for breakfast and dinner! Fab location and facilities as well😃

The Hare's Corner
Mountmellick
29/07/2025: My friend and I go into Hare's Corner every day, it could be for breakfast but more often than not we have lunch, I have to say the food is first class at a great price.
The server's are just brillent and frendly, you never have to wait more than couple of minutes to be served, also its good to see patrons coming in for take away dinners and the are looked after just as good as the eat in diners
The best of luck to you all for your continued success.......Rosemary

O'Dea's Bistro
Portarlington
02/10/2025: Excellent food served efficiently by friendly staff.
13/09/2025: Love O'Deas however was very disappointed recently with their chicken curry, portion was tiny. There were only 4 very small pieces of chicken in it and hardly any veg. Portion of rice was small also.

Akayu
Portlaoise
17/10/2025: One of best restaurants in Portaloise. Great food and service
15/10/2025: A group of 3 of us ate her last night, we were all very disappointed, after reading great reviews before we went. Duck Bento was passable but Spider Sushi, very dry, and stodgy with very little crabmeat., they didn’t even know what Sriracha Mayo was 🙀 Chicken Noodle dish over cooked, steer clear is my advice 😱

Ashbrook Arms
Durrow
16/08/2025: great spot, comfy beds, staff were really friendly and breakfast was delicious
03/08/2025: Located in a historic building, the hotel offers spacious and comfortable rooms. The furnishings are obviously antique, but this adds to the place's charm. The hotel has a highly recommended restaurant serving excellent Irish cuisine.

Rockys takeaway
Ballylinan
30/07/2025: We just moved to Ballylynan and ordered from Rockys for the first time. Absolutely blown away by the quality of their pizza. Genuine wood fired with incredible flavour. Turn around speed was impressive.
18/04/2025: Rocky’s garlic cheese chips would be what I’d ask for my last meal. 10/10 always.
