A welcome arrival to the bustling town of Gorey, this centrally located daytime café is a buzzy place, popular with locals and visitors alike.
It is located at the back of a speciality food shop selling artisan foods from Ireland and beyond, and there will be plenty to tempt you on your way in and out - ingredients used in the café are on sale in the shop, which is useful for picking up a picnic.
The menu features simple, unpretentious dishes that allow the high quality of the ingredients to take pride of place - enjoy, amongst other treats, good soups served with freshly home-baked bread, unusual pasta dishes, tasty savoury tarts, flavoursome salads, an excellent farmhouse cheese and oatcake plate, and an enticing selection of home-baked cakes and tarts.
There is a coffee menu and a short “by the glass” wine list. It does get busy (especially at lunchtime), but service is friendly and willing.
Good value considering the high quality of the food.
