An Cupán Caifé

In this charming Shannonside village, Dagmar Hilty's welcoming café is easily found on the main street. There is a Liechtenstein family interest in this simply decorated little place, so visitors from continental Europe are set at ease.


Evening menus include a well-priced four-course dinner as well as an à la carte and, although the surroundings may be simple, there is an obvious commitment to quality. Locally sourced ingredients are a point of pride, with suppliers credited on the menus - and sauces are not only home-made, but also gluten-free.


The range offered is impressive for a small seasonal restaurant and, while there are variations on many popular 'dinner' dishes - steaks, shank of lamb, poached salmon - a moderately priced range of simple spaghetti dishes and chicken dishes (stir fry or curry) is also offered. Vegetarians should enjoy one of the house specialities, a home-made vegetable strudel  with creamy parsley fresh herbs and white wine sauce.


On Sunday (and bank holiday Mondays), there is a 3 or 4 course set lunch menu, offering a balanced selection from the dishes on evening menus and a Sunday roast special.


The wine list includes well chosen house wine by the glass, and BYO is also welcome.

Seats 24. Open D Wed-Sat, 6-9pm & Sun 1-8pm, set 4 course D €30, also à la carte. L Sun only (& Bank Hol Mon), 1-4pm, set 2/3 course L €20/25. Afternoon tea served Sun, 3.30-6pm. House wine €19.50. Children welcome (high chair, children's menu); free broadband wi/fi. Closed Mon, Tue (open Bank Hols, 12.30-late), all Nov-Feb. A phone call to check times is advised, especially off season. MasterCard, Visa, Laser. abbreviations
