Very friendly, clean traditional café, very popular with locals over many years. Great bakery selection, desserts and daily lunch specials. Strawberry cheescake is delicate and creamy and will melt in your mouth. Scrumptious donuts.

What a great full Irish breakfast! Plenty of it, and delicious. Staff are friendly, coffee and tea lovely. I should have taken a photo of the food beforehand, but couldn't resist chomping in. Recommended.
Paid €35 for two chicken rolls (one with added coleslaw), a small cappuccino, and a jam doughnut in Enniscorthy. I was honestly surprised at the total, as it felt very expensive for what we received.
The food itself was fine, but the overall value for money just wasn’t there compared with other local cafés. It might help to make pricing clearer at the counter so customers know what to expect before ordering.
Unfortunately, based on this experience my husband doesn't want to ever return here again. What has the world come to?
We met the chef in the street not far from the restaurant. Asked her for a recommendation on where to eat and she suggested here naturally enough.
Very pleasant experience, lovely staff and the food is very good. We were well looked after. Thank you ladies 🙌
All the food is not salty, and I wasn't warned. The food itself is bad, expensive, and poorly presented. For that kind of money, you could go to some restaurant and order breakfast, lunch, and fish. Breakfast turned out to be a poor value for the money. They even called it Irish breakfast (a big name, but a shame). I decided to get dessert. The dessert was good, but there wasn't enough jam for such a huge cake. Later, I ordered steak on toast. As a result, they brought a huge, wrecked mess with a bunch of tasteless mushrooms and bad, undercooked meat. I had to go ask for gloves (my advice: get good meat, but not much, but it will be tasty and easy to eat). There was a light salad and absolutely unsalted potatoes with an incomprehensible presentation. As a former critic, I say the money isn't worth it. The entire cafe is supported by its patrons.
