Robertos Coffee Shop
Monaghan
            08/07/2025: Probably a good spot after shopping, the terasse is convenient. You don't come for the surroundings. What put me off is the price of the coffee and for that it's going to be the first and last time. 4.10€ for a cappuccino and 4.70€ for a non dairy (yeah I'm lactose intolerant not a fancy dub)
It's the price you'd pay in London. As far as I can see Monaghan is far from being London. Now if it's because of the rent, it's a shame. Anyway too expensive (4.5€ a piece of cake... )
    
        
            27/04/2025: This place is packed from early morning,  to late at night.   Beautiful restaurant,  lovely food

Cuil Darach
Clones
            24/08/2025: I really enjoyed my stay. Lovely view from my room. Tailor-made breakfast. Friendly and attentive staff. In short, don't hesitate to come back.
    
        
            24/08/2025: Typical (as of old) Irish pub, serving food until the afternoon. Service not particularly friendly. For the rest, nice atmosphere if you like traditional places. Mostly frequented by locals.

Fro & Co
Monaghan
            06/05/2025: I really enjoyed the overnight oats protein bowl with fresh toppings and honey.
The frozen yogurt I tried most of them, my favourite flavours are chocolate and natural. Toppings: fresh strawberries, blueberries and bananas with chopped mangos then add mixed seeds with walnuts.
Chicken toast is amazing.
    
        
            20/02/2025: This is an absolutely delightful little coffee shop. Serving an array of baked goods as well as fancy ice creams full stop it was the copy that I was there for though. And, I am very happy to report that the coffee was absolutely fantastic -  really really good

Castleblayney legal
            20/09/2025: Overpriced mains don’t come with any rice or chips ridiculous.
    
        
            01/09/2025: We visited Bistro couple months ago ,some dishes were fine some were kinda soggy. Salads,chips,milkshakes are great in there but holy moly these wings turned me off.They were saturated in oil ,they were soft,I honestly expected them to be crispy but I suppose that's just my preference,was not happy for them .Anyways bistro now offers an Inidan cuisine that is just off the top good,fresh meat,lovely spice,hot dishes ,fresh rice just class.We have ordered indian couple times in last month and definitely reordering

Shevlins
Carrickmacross
            22/09/2025: We got an old room and the bed was so uncomfortable + the bathroom in really bad need of refurbishment
    
        
            29/08/2025: We stayed a couple of nights here and enjoyed being in Carrick. The rooms were very nice but left down by two elements. Firstly, during fairly warm summer weather they were extremely hot with no ability to fully open the windows. Secondly, the shower was very hot and extremely difficult to alter the temperature due to a very stiff control tap - this was the case in multiple rooms (we knew other people staying here) and is something they need to sort out.
Breakfast was generally good but could have done with at least some vegetarian options. Service was pleasant and the reception staff were particularly good.
