Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous. Why don't more people from Celbridge come here?! I don't get it! Maybe…read morebecause you can't access it from the main street in your car any more?! If I still lived in Celbridge, this is definitely somewhere I'd be frequenting a lot more.. eh.. frequently..!!! Or maybe it's the lack of online presence?! I can't find anything about the cafe on the Castletown House website for example?! Why?! So here's what ye do. Go for a whopper walk up along the river, go over to the obelisk and imagine what it would have been like to have been hanging out with the Connolys and Johnathan Swifts and the likes, get a bitta wind in your hair, then get yourself over into the Courtyard Cafe in the grounds of the wonderful Castletown House, and get the warmth back in you. Get a nice sambo or hot meal and a lovingly made hot chocolate and cake to finish. You'll walk home with a spring in your step, guaranteed.

I just loved the giant coloured lampshades, the antique paraphernalia, the bookshelves, and the ancient-looking wall map. The seats are comfy and they have soya milk, which is a must for me. I'm told the food is yummy too. Apparently, there's a smaller version of this café up in the Caspo Centre, which has a coffee hatch to brighten up the early mornings for the poor unfortunate commuters. I love finding cool new cafés so I was well chuffed this avo.

Ive only…read morebeen here for breakfast on Saturday mornings with the lads from work ( site) , they horse the food down, love it, no complaints. So i cant comment on anything else. The staff are pleasent, willing to help and offer little things like, "ill drop it down", " do you want an extra shot in that" and a good bye with a smile. The have a generous amount of other healthy options for breakfast aswell, so all tastes are accommadated for. It does the job and its a nice place to chill out in. Initially i had given a 3 star review, but as i wrote this, i realised id only seen a small window of its offerings. Its a four star place for breakfast, front of house staff bumped it up!

I do however love the fresh veg and organic selection of sauces etc that as someone with allergies to food items or additives I have a hard time finding the healthy options. I can find it here. I cannot however find it in the food they serve here. Not much is GF including the soup so eating here is problematic. I usually have a coffee while my mum or sister eats and I watch. Fun, not. The owners are nice and friendly. They have a good wine selection and you can even bottle your own from the casket if you wish. I find the wine over priced so not a win here I'm afraid. It is difficult to find parking and it can be crazy at certain hours like breakfast lunch etc so I avoid these times. I'm putting an addition as this summer all prices went up 20 percent. When I asked staff about it they justified it by saying they had no increases in a few year's. When I mentioned the worst recession in history they were dismissive. This does not impress me. You're still sitting in a deli it's not a restaurant yet it is more expensive than one and no waiters.

Our waitress was joy personified - the welcome was warm and she fussed over us to get us seated then brought menus. The cafe has a take away go left and a separate sit - in area go right where we nestled into. The cafe was busy - both takeaway and sit in - just into the early afternoon. It was a flat white, a cappuccino and a generous chunk of home - made, zingy lemon meringue pie between us. The coffees and the light airy pie were delicious. The rest - rooms were well appointed too. Once the food was delivered to the table I asked for the bill so that we could just leave once we were done.
