Town Hall Café

Adjacent to (and part of) The Old Ground Hotel, the Town Hall Café has a separate street entrance and a contemporary feel.

The old town hall has been well restored and the restaurant is in an impressive high-ceilinged room with sensitively spare decor - large art works which will be loved or loathed, big plant pots and simple table settings allow the room to speak for itself.

Daytime menus offer a mixture of modern bistro-style dishes and tea-room fare - recently, it seems, with more emphasis on casual fare wraps, open sandwiches etc - just what people need to re-charge during a day's shopping.

In the evening, it all moves up a notch or two, when an attractive à la carte menu is offered.

Desserts from a daily selection.

Seats 60; children welcome (high chair); reservations recommended except for snacks. Open from 10am daily: L 12-4.30pm, D 6-9.45pm (to 9.30pm Sun). House wines from €18. Closed 25 Dec. Amex, Diners, MasterCard, Visa, Laser
