The best restaurants in Offaly

19/02/2025: Not a Italian food not good no veg for pizza when asked only meat and roasted peppers : I wouldn’t recommend this place at all as it’s over priced and food was reheated. The vegetable I got with my lamb Shank was soggy and over cooked . The roasted potatoes where very dry all seemed reheated. Defo wouldn’t return.

15/02/2025: We went for dinner in Balcone resteraunt last night , I ordered bruschetta for starter , what I was served was not in any way a resteraunt standard bruschetta , it was a cheesy garlic bread , garlic butter which with melted cheddar and two cherry tomatoes placed on top . This resteraunt is apparently an Italian resteraunt but even the carbonara I had for my main course was more like soup , it had a very nice flavour but definitely wasn’t anywhere near authentic carbonara . I nearly needed a spoon to eat it, it had onion and grated cheese on top which I thought unusual. We had an assorted dessert and they were fine . Service was extremely slow . I would not recommend this restaurant

04/02/2024: Please employ a proper chef with the necessary skills to prepare the food, had a horrible lunch there recently, also give the place a good clean, doesn’t give much hope to see Lidl salt & pepper on the table and Lidl cleaning products on the bar

27/08/2023: Great breakfast as usual best in town quick and friendly staff

18/08/2025: Ordered a takeaway which came extremely quick (within 15 minutes). Ordered a spice box for €8 which contained about 15 chips and 5 small pieces of chicken, wouldn’t have fed a 5 year old. Got a portion of chicken fried rice that was covered in some weird brown sauce that ruined the whole dish, would never ordered from here again, awful value for money

27/04/2025: I had a lovely dinner here, food was delicious, big portions, decent price, nice ambiance, super nice staff. Very much recommended, must try in Mullingar.❤️❤️❤️

13/01/2025: Sadly, this cafe is deteriorating. The floors and tables tend to be sticky, and the worst of all, the coffee is not great. Come on Quigleys, sort it out.

12/01/2025: Lovely cafe in centre of Tullamore.

05/07/2025: Ordered take away. Menu says "Includes boiled rice, fried rice or chips 50c extra" Was charged an extra €1 on the menu price. When I queried this the cashier said it was for the rice. I explained I got boiled rice. She did not seem to grasp the concept of Includes meaning it is INCLUDED in the price quoted and that that the 50c is if you have Fried Rice or Chips. I did not bother arguing over the €1. I will just vote with my feet and go elsewhere. This must be the only Chinese takeaway in Ireland that charges extra for boiled rice that is already Included in the price.

10/06/2025: Very good food and the staff are lovely

02/10/2024: Recently moved to Birr and have found this to be the best pizza by far. I was in to pick up our pizzas for what was maybe our 4th order in two months. I dropped one while walking out and they replaced it without charge right away. Unquestionably excellent service on top of epic pizzas. Unreservedly recommended.

29/08/2024: We were told so many good things about their pizza we absolutely had to check it out! We had some questions, which were all answered, and that was a big help because we weren’t sure what to order. So we got a surprise pizza and it was amazing! The dough was just perfect, and it took less than 10 minutes. Definitely recommend!

08/10/2023: Nice pub. Barwoman was very welcoming.
