06/05/2025: Had a lovely morning at the Bakehouse. Great outdoor seating area where we were served a delicious breakfast by friendly and helpful staff. Would definitely recommend hiring bikes and cycling along the canal. Will be back! Claire (Sea Dew B&B)

26/04/2025: Ballycommon Bakehouse is an absolute gem! From the moment you arrive, you’re welcomed by a warm, friendly atmosphere and a beautiful setting. The café itself is cosy and inviting, and the outdoor area is simply perfect for sunny days, peaceful, spacious, and the ideal spot to sit back and relax. One of the things I love most is how dog-friendly it is. After a lovely walk along the nearby canal, it’s wonderful to be able to stop in with your four-legged friend and enjoy a coffee or a delicious meal without any hassle. The food is consistently fantastic, fresh, flavourful, and clearly made with care. Whether you’re popping in for a quick treat or settling in for a relaxed lunch, Ballycommon Bakehouse never disappoints. The staff are genuinely lovely too — always welcoming, attentive, and helpful, which adds to the whole experience. I would absolutely recommend Ballycommon Bakehouse to anyone looking for a great café/restaurant with a relaxed, friendly vibe. It’s a little treasure and well worth a visit!

03/01/2025: Unfortunately there were no breakfast options left as they'd had a busy morning. Usually they have an all day breakfast menu which is handy for a Sunday. I was disappointed, but staff were v apologetic

04/12/2024: Fabulous dog friendly accommodation with super breakfast. Staff were excellent and the location is perfect for Birr castle and gardens. Highly recommended 👍

18/02/2025: Loved the food and the people were nice too.

08/06/2025: I've been there for dinner several times, and they always served me very well. The food is good and the price is right.

30/05/2025: Walked into the restaurant and was completely empty while being told they had no room for me and my friend, we were seated outside and felt forgotten about. One of the employees said they would bring us menus...TEN YEARS LATER..we order the mambo pizza which was mostly covered in leaves and a portion of fries which were stale and tasteless. The employee brought us out plates and cutlery and decided to put it to the side NOT INFRONT OF US. Our drinks were self poured and piss warm. Wouldn't really recommend.

26/06/2025: Great atmosphere Lovely pints Great selection

21/06/2025: Lovely pub, excellent atmosphere and perfect if you're going to a match in Tullamore.

06/06/2025: Really good Service & Food it's hard to pass .

19/06/2025: Heading out from Dublin to the Cliffs of Moher and hoping to find a good midway point to grab some vegan food. With the help of my good friend, Google lol, I was able to find a small and cute restaurant called the Foxy Bean at about a halfway point in Tullamore. We weren't super hungry, just hoping for something to tide us over for a few hours. Their vegan breakfast option, the aptly named "Vegan Brekkie", seemed hearty with many components .. pan fried mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, avocado, hash browns, toasted sourdough, spinach, and homemade bean hummus! It didn't occur to us how big this dish might be, however when our lovely server brought the plates out, we were in awe at how much food they managed to fit onto one .. very large .. plate lol. The food was great, you can't beat the variety and everything was tasty, fresh and clean. Whether you happen to be staying in the area or just driving through, stop by and show some appreciation for their vegan option and don't forget to bring your A-game appetite lol

08/06/2025: Very good food, very nice service.

20/11/2024: Very friendly place. Great food and great service

11/06/2025: I really love this place and employees very nice and kind, food is lovely I just don’t really like the way sitting so close but if you go morning it’s really nice,quite and peaceful

24/06/2025: In two minds about leaving this review considering there's many a review that mirror my experience. Lack of attention to tables and an abysmal delay between anything you would normally expect from a sit down dining experience. Look forward to a longer delay than you're used to between being seated and ordering, between your starter and your main, between ordering drinks, between finishing your food and asking about dessert. And when you're done you're honestly better off getting up and paying the bill at the units just to shave off some of the unnecessary wait time. This isn't at peak periods, this is all the time... Brunch, Lunch or Dinner slow is on the menu. The delay doesn't match up to the food or the price point it's set at.

20/06/2025: The ambience and furnishings are simply uniquely tasteful and really very successful! The food was really excellent and highly recommended, I have never eaten such a tender piece of beef. The waiters were really busy, which could have quickly become a problem with the manageable number of guests. All in all, really a must if you're near Tullamore.

07/07/2025: Was here today from a trip to Dublin, The older staff at the front of the restaurant were lovely and welcoming, but our young lady the server was very rude, unwelcoming, didn’t know what food was available made us feel uncomfortable when we asked what sauce came with the chicken wings, and when we asked for a glass of water she replied “a jug” in a rude tone. Which we never received. Food was nice but felt the sever let the place down.

18/06/2025: Went here on recommendation of host in b&b. Unfortunately (still) no live music. A cozy old-fashioned pub.... Nice seats. Indeed recommended
