It was well worth the drive to find this place. As I drove past first I wondered about parking as it would appear that there is limited spaces outside the shop front but around the corner is a huge car park.
If you park in the car part you can walk through their grocers / deli / shop which is stuffed full off fresh fruit and veg, sauces, pasta, herbs, cakes etc. Its quite a find really.
After exiting the tardis that is their food store you then enter the cafe / bakery where you are greeted by a mountain of freshly based bread and cakes. I would certainly have given this place a 5 but the service was a little disorganized and the layout chaotic but otherwise excellent. The serve roasted brown coffee in big mugs - not these dainty styled tea cups that appear to be a favorite elsewhere.
The donuts from here are well conceived and amongst the best I have had. They sell them in Avoca stores, Bear coffee in Blackrock and a few other places. read more
