Had really tasty latte and pastries there on friday. Service was very nice from 2 girls but not very nice and welcoming from one girl at the till who took our order- she seemed annoyed when I asked questions about food and drinks for kids, I probably didn't order food fast enough and asked too many questions- that is impression I got.

Friendly staffTasty foodCoffeeBreakfast
Stopped in for breakfast October 2022 before heading to castle. Super service and fantastic food. Hot chocolate was delicious. Would definitely recommend and return.
We had the pleasure of having breakfast here on a Sunday morning while enroute to Wexford from Connemara. We had a fabulous breakfast and we were served by the proprietor who was a very pleasant welcoming guy. I highly recommend this very clean and cosy cafe. It was a very busy place full of locals getting their Sunday coffee or breakfast,which was a testament in itself. 🙂
