Caffe Letterario GattaNera
Bray
19/09/2025: A lovely spot for lunch and a coffee in Bray. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, the coffee is great and the sandwiches are out of this world. Highly recommend the Parma king or the n'duja.
15/09/2025: Apple cinnamon tea was perfect with extra cinnamon. I hope they add a ginger cookie to the menu , it would be the perfect combination for a cozy autumn evening! đđ

Carpe Diem
Bray
13/09/2025: This restaurant is a real hidden gem! The focaccia was fantastic, and the meaty lasagna and the desserts were equally delicious. You could really taste the high quality of the ingredients used â it's clear that the owner cares deeply about maintaining a high standard.
The staff and owner were also very friendly. We will certainly be back.
03/08/2025: Went in to use the bathroom here during the bray air festival as the public toilets had a 30 minute line. Just to get screamed at by both the Italian male and female owners at the top of their lungs in front of the whole busy cafe, Iâm 7 months pregnant and he shouted at the top of his lungs at me âshame on you for using your pregnancy as an EXCUSEâ over and over. Such a horrible attitude, left me shook leaving.
Please donât support this place with such a degrading attitude towards pregnant women. For the uneducated owner:
1. Pregnancy isnât an âexcuseâ to use the toilet when in need
2. â You should never scream in the face of a pregnant woman itâs very stressful for her and baby to handle

Butler & Barry
Bray
16/09/2025: Everything was excellent, staff were so helpful and polite, couldn't have asked for more
15/09/2025: The location is truly stunning â you can see Bray Sea right through the window while dining, which makes for a beautiful setting. Unfortunately, the experience didnât match the views.
When we arrived (after driving 45 minutes and with a reservation), we were only told once seated that due to an electricity issue the menu was reduced to just three items. It would have been appreciated to receive a call beforehand, as this would have influenced our decision to come.
The food itself was good, though quite standard and similar to what youâd find in many pubs. Service, however, left a lot to be desired: we had to ask twice for plates despite saying weâd be sharing, and when we requested tap water, the server mentioned all the jugs were being washed. Only after I suggested water could be served in glasses did it arrive. Simple things like dressings, ketchup, or basic table setup werenât provided unless requested.
Overall, while the setting is exceptional, the service and communication fell short. Sadly, I wouldnât recommend it based on this experience

Daata
Bray
15/09/2025: Great food, attention to detain in each dish. Loved the authentic copper crockery and atmosphere. Gluten free options available đ
14/09/2025: Had a really disappointing experience at Daata. I ordered the vegetable paneer and bhindi masala ,both were terrible. In the vegetable paneer, the beans werenât even cut; they just tossed them in whole. On top of that, the dish was weirdly sweet, which completely ruined the flavor. The bhindi masala wasnât any better sweet and poorly cooked.
The only decent part of the meal was the naan, which was soft and well made. Unfortunately, thatâs not enough to make up for the rest. Wouldnât recommend if you're looking for quality vegetarian food

Harbour Bar
Bray
17/09/2025: Go here when you're in Bray. The location is wonderful, the food was great and the staff super nice.
16/09/2025: âïžđ The Harbour Bar is an amazing pub: old world & welcoming. I grew up in Arklow & I love to visit on Sunday afternoon. Reminds me of Wicklow which I miss so much! A unique band plays from 4.30 to 7pm. Mesmerizing. Definitely not hackneyed tunes they play but eclectic ones: Bob Dylan, Neil Young, etc. You can get chips for 4 đ¶ & Beamish pints for 6...great value đ€ The staff work hard, bless them, as it's busy & Paul O Toole ( the Gaffer? đ ) is a decent fellow. With volcanic Bray Head & the Irish Sea's Promenade offering constitutional walks...why not seal the evening with great food, music & booze in...The Harbour Bar & support Wicklow/Irish jobs! đ€âïžđ. Best wishes to staff & patronsđ. Cormac đ„ł

Gusto Italiano
Bray
29/09/2025: Great local cafe. Excellent coffee super friendly staff.
31/08/2025: Authentic, Heartwarming, and Truly Italian.
This coffee shop is so much more than just a place to grab a coffeeâit's a little slice of Italy, right in the heart of Bray. Run by the loveliest Italian couple, the warmth and hospitality here are unmatched. From the first visit, they made me feel like a regular, greeting everyone with genuine smiles and a kind word.
Itâs the kind of place that reminds you why small, family-run spots are so special. The coffee is fantastic, but it's the people behind it who truly make it memorable. Highly, highly recommended!
