24/10/2024: Excellent, brilliant friendly staff, and excellent food, will definitely call again when home on hols

07/11/2024: Without a doubt the best coffee house in Ballina. The staff is both cafes are always very pleasant, and recommend something new to try if there’s a new menu. We are loyal customers to here for years and will continue to be. Can’t wait for the Christmas menu already

08/10/2024: Delicious iced coffee with friendly staff

07/10/2024: wonderful little place along the road

03/10/2024: The coffee is great and I definitely recommend the cookies . It's in a very handy spot😃😃😃

20/10/2024: Great breakfast options with delicious food. Decent coffee as well. Great and popular place, can see why!

11/10/2024: We ate here a few days ago. The chicken wrap and fries (chips) were delicious. The staff was friendly

19/10/2024: Went in for lunch with four friends two of the group were just having coffee and three of us eating, the two coffees and three teas came straight away but then had to wait almost an hour for our food,the tea was just a teabag in a cup no pot,when I asked if we could have a top up I was rudely told that we could have as much tea as we want but would have to pay for it,food was sub standard, just sandwiches on a plate no side salad or crisps,won't be going back

08/10/2024: Had lunch here with a friend. The paninis were amazing, especially the turkey special.

12/10/2024: Needs serious management overall. Went for a quiet pint. Guinness zero served in same glasses as regular Guinness. Drinks were mixed up and no effort to resolve the issue. What's really disappointing is to have to deal with customers vaping with no effort to stop it Let me know when there is an effort to run a decent safe bar and I'll be back

08/10/2024: Really good food reasonably priced

05/10/2024: Driving through Balina and stopped in this little gem! We had the chowder and it was delicious! We went back a couple days later with a big crowd and they were accommodating and the chowder on the second time round did not disappoint!!

25/09/2024: Very friendly Female PO Clerk. Lovely chat. Bought a Lotto unfortunately don't have to return .....NOT A WINNER

26/09/2024: We live locally and have eaten here several times and recommend it to our friends. Dinner last night was delicious as always and accommodations made for our dietary requirements so that we were able to relax and enjoy a really lovely meal. Service, as always, was outstanding

25/09/2024: We stayed at the Ballina Manor and it’s a beautiful walk to the spa. The baths we fantastic and the relaxation room was wonderful as well. The restaurant offered a “new” kind of seafood chowder including muscles that were insanely good. The showers have great water pressure and excellent products!

13/09/2024: I have been a customer of rouses many times over the years but I had really bad experience here tonight. I arrived here alone and was waiting for friends to arrive out in the back area when the bar lady came out and asked me “if I was ok” to which I replied I was and that I was waiting for friends to arrive to meet me. I probably had been here about 5 minutes at this point. I asked her if there was a problem and she basically said I cant just stay here like this (I am assuming without a drink?). I felt very unwelcome and promptly left. Look Im a 31 year old woman and this is not how I expect to be treated in a pub within 5 minutes of arriving just because I am alone. I have no idea what she thought I was doing but as soon as I walked outside I saw my friends had arrived and we walked down to the auld sibin (close to the bridge) instead and had a good evening. Would be really hesitant to recommend for anyone coming in alone in a similar circumstance.

09/09/2024: Great cosy pub with live trad music. Fab service

19/09/2024: The service in this place is fantastic, food is tops, a place like Michelle's deserves to do well. Make sure to visit it. Good luck.

18/08/2024: Fantastic fresh tasty coffee devine series 5 star 🌟

03/11/2024: Manu now good for vegetarian very expensive overall priced to high

01/11/2024: We had a very enjoyable stay in Mount Falcon. Jordan had a warm welcome for us on arrival. Our room was really nice with a huge bathroom, robes and slippers. We enjoyed the food in the restaurant. Marcus and the staff in the leisure centre and spa were really friendly and helpful. Breakfast was really good with plenty of choice. We would recommend a stay here in this beautiful hotel

12/09/2024: Sweet place, good Coffee and lovely people :)

05/09/2024: Perfect breakfast, very friendly, eccentric, smiley owner. Loved it.

17/09/2024: Great old pub established in 1901. Live music that starts late (11pm) on the weekend. Loads of memorabilia on the walls and ceilings. Connects to the pub next door in the back. Definitely a great stop if you like a good pub with great atmosphere. Very popular with the locals.

12/09/2024: No food available in the Sean Sibin. But great pint and a great atmosphere with some genuine old style Irish decor. Clean toilets and a decent outdoor area. Love it.
