From outside the place looks the part, from the inside it is a little pokey and doesn't feel right, a bit dark I think. The selection of cakes and baked goods was big and we chose a black forest gateaux and a couple of ginger bread men. Sadly the Gateaux was not overly nice and the gingerbread men were stale, overall, a bit disappointing.

I also asked if it contained eggs and it doesn't :) Now I don't have to eat that horrible rye bread that I make myself(I'm not very good at baking!). For anyone with food allergies/intolerances, this is a great place to check out. My worst nightmare would be if they closed! The people are really nice and it's really handy I can ring ahead and order what I want so I don't have to rush in in the morning to get what's left on the shelf. It also means what I get has been baked fresh for me :) I can't praise this place enough! It's quite a small place but it's cute and nicely laid out in my opinion.

Good atmosphere and the staff was very nice. 5/5 - quiche with goat cheese, spinach & potato. It paired perfectly with the salad which was a mix of leafy greens, chickpea salad, and pickled beets. All amazing but the beets were the best I've ever had. Flat white was good too! 5/5 - pancakes, streaky bacon, & maple syrup. My husband ordered this, it was really good. 6/5 - lemon blueberry muffin & plain croissant. We got this take away for a snack later. I'm sad I didn't try to there because it was amazing and I would have ordered more. They really know what they are doing with the pastries.

President Higgins may take the government helicopter to Belfast, maybe even fly to Castlebar but I doubt if Boyle is on his or his helicopter's radar. Anyway Castlebar is the home area of Enda Kenny, now invisible but former Irish Taoiseach (2011 to 2017). It's typical of politicians to bring wealth to their constituencies and of course themselves and here is a fine example of political patronage and gombeenism. As I strolled I turned down a side street and I came across this place. Now as one who can resist anything but temptation I was instantly drawn by the sights & smells of expensive chocolate followed by the waft of equally expensive coffee. So text to my wife and in I go. Two cappuccino, two desserts (strawberry tart & chocolate mousse - both delicious) and €17 paid. Sorted. So to sum. It's quality. The coffee and cakes are super and the prices reflect the image. There's free WiFi too. A nice touch is the mini milk chocolate bar on the side of the coffees. Service was friendly and our welcome and departure were friendly. We'd return in a heartbeat after all its chocolate.

A bit too much sauce for me, so everything got a bit soggy and messy but overall a burst of flavor. (7.8/10)

They believe in supporting the community that supports them, which is great. On our first day in Ballina, we asked reception where a good place for lunch or dinner would be and this place, along with their fine dining upstairs, Heifer and Hen, got glowing reviews. We checked it out and saw a list of pastas and sandwiches, so kept going in search of 'traditional Irish fare'. Upon closer inspection, the full sit down menu offered things like Cumberland sausages, bangers and mash and more. So breakfast it was. You can't go wrong with freshly baked goods, a local butcher for tasty sausages and bacon and locally sourced ingredients. The toast was almost like a cake, very tasty, a little sweet and quite dense. Service was fast, friendly and accommodating and the coffee was good too. Only complaint is that the glasses and cutlery could be a little cleaner. All in all, if you're in Ballina, avoid disappointment and come here first. We're heading back for lunch!
