    Birthday breakfast booked the day before arrived seated in the middle of the restaurant got menus fairly quick but that’s as good as it got… Ordered food and drinks X 6 45 minutes later had to ask for the drinks finally got them 55mins after ordering…. Drinks gone had to ask for food told 5 mins Asked for another round of drinks, not as slow as the first time but still no food… Spoke with the manager who said if he had noticed that we hadn’t got our food he would have had it sorted earlier…. We were sitting in the middle of the restaurant staff were constantly passing the table including the manager…. Finally after 1hr 30mins 3 of the breakfasts arrived… 2 full breakfasts both with no sausages… and pancakes that were cold Ended up calling it a day and went elsewhere as it was so so disappointing Emailed the restaurant to air my frustration but to no avail as have got no response so I had to review this establishment. Really really disappointed and would find it very hard to go back..

    This is a beautiful venue, very well decorated and the atmosphere is great. Food is so tasty that I kept eating even when I was full. Probably the best coffee in town. Graham was very hospitable and a lovely host. Service was fast and all the staff extremely friendly and attentive but not in your face. Phenomenal experience in overall and I would highly recommend this place. 10/10 🙂

    Although the food was lovely, I have to say that Mother’s Day was a bit hectic, we could understand with possible understaffing issues or under huge pressure.. but it was difficult to get someone’s attention upstairs and also waiting long time for small things like ketchup or water… small issues but they make a big difference. Although food was lovely it was an expensive dining experience with poor service.

    The Mother’s Day brunch menu was very limited in comparison to the normal brunch menu. The food was tasteless and almost cold. Overall the experience was not good at all.

    Staff were absolutely fantastic. Food was very overpriced for what it was though and a bit disappointing. €20 for a small chicken burger and a few chips, and the chicken was over cooked and very dry. Desserts were amazing though and a few other dishes looked quite nice. But the prices would make me think twice about going back if I’m honest.

    Normally we love the food here, but we were disappointed with the new menu choice today. The halloumi bowl was bland and completely dry. We had to ask for some dressing with it and we still thought it was completely tasteless. We were seated upstairs in the back, and the staff seemed to forget about our table and so we couldn’t get anybody’s attention or get the table cleared after eating.

    Pleasant but possibly untrained waiting staff. Waited ages for attention after getting menus. Starters arrived before our wine. Had to repeatedly call for attention. Very noisy - possibly due to absence of soft furnishings. V poor lighting making it difficult to read the very pale print especially on the specials menu
