So on my second visit I decided to try the eggs Benedict which was also better than expected. The meal wasn't large but it doesn't need to be, to be good. The muffins were good, the balance of sauce, egg, and ham was nice. And the potatoes on the side were good as well the latte was still overpriced but this time not good at all. I dont think the portafilter had been emptied properly before my drink. So, I will eat here again but no more coffee.

The Terrace Cafe was a welcome respite from the windy and rainy walk around the gardens my wife and…read moreI had just completed. They had quite a selection of yummy food options to choose from. My wife picked a quiche that came with three sides that she kindly shared with me. I opted for a bowl of tomato soup with cheese bread. Both dishes were warm and delicious. We thoroughly enjoyed our sides of Asian salad, fresh fruit and Greek salad with the latter our favorite. The combination of broccoli, feta cheese and dressing was addictive. My tomato soup was the best also full of flavor and very warming. The cheese bread was handy to sop up the remaining soup that escaped my spoon. The folks working there were quite friendly and helpful. The dining area had plenty of room and tables were quickly bussed whenever someone left. A great lunch spot.

Powerscourt Terrace is a nice little cafe establishment in the heart of Enniskerry…read more There are a few things which I wanted to note for anyone not local to the area attempting to navigate here: 1: you're going to have to follow signs, as you'll have basically have zero cellphone reception until you get into powerscourt directly. 2: you do have free wifi in powerscourt, but still no cell signal - at least from 3. The place has some nice choices as far as food - there are plenty of vegetarian options and effectively everything is designed around the concept of "main + 3 salads". I'm not saying do the sad vegetarian option of "you must have salad/you must get a cobb salad without chicken", either. This main + salads idea is a concept all over Ireland, essentially - a main course for one price, and a separate price for that main course with 3 sides. Sadly, the concept basically requires the salads - as you'll commonly find that the main course is a bit small, even for Euro sized meals. This doesn't mean you'll be missing anything, though - as thankfully the salads happen to be absolutely excellent. I happened to try an Edamame and Chickpea salad as one of the choices I had, and it was pretty well made. To complement that was a cooked broccoli, feta and tomato salad along with an asian inspired noodle salad - all of these went perfectly with the spinach quiche I selected. Wifey had the Edamame Chickpea salad as well, but chose a carrot salad along with an awesome lentil loaf - all complemented with an Elderflower drink. Meals are rotated, so I'm not honestly sure if you would see these same main course options as it probably rotates throughout any given day or week. I would suspect the salads probably stay the same, as I noticed the same options in Avoca/Arklow/Gorey at a number of restaurants as well. What does this all add up to? Well, it boils down to an experience like this: You have pretty good food choices that are pretty well made, which are noticeably pricey. All the while you eat these whether indoors or outdoors wasps are going to try to eat your meal with you, so I sincerely hope nobody going here has a wasp allergy. This goes on with hilariously terrible wifi coverage. It was 38 EUR for the two of us. So basically tourist establishment + pricey but nice food and nice places to sit. Oh, and make sure you don't mix it up with the fast food equivalent just next door to the actual cafe.

This place had a line outside the store to pick up baked goods for the day - and I see why! We started by trying the Ham and cheese croissant - custard croissant and chocolate croissant: each one was eyeball-rolling-to-the-back-of-your-head phenomenal. The guy that pre-opens the store (e.g. sets out the chairs on the patio an hour before they truly open) isnt the friendliest - I asked if they were open upon seeing him one morning and his says "no" and just doesnt even look up at me. After tasting their goodies and seeing that line, I am sure he gets asked that a million times every day, so I try not to hold his "not morning person" attitude against him. This was a fantastic spot to pick up and run (it is quite small if you're looking to stay and eat here though). Make sure to order any and everything there: we wished we had more time so we could have eaten more of their delicacies!

I thought the name of the cafe was "Little Cafe" because that's the name on the outside of it. But come to find out - the name of this place is Assassination Custard - as it is written on the window. A lovey couple runs this place & it truly is a hole-in-a-wall place that seats 8 between 2 tables. Their menu was written on what looked like a small brown takeaway bag. They explained to one of their other customers that their menu varies as they buy the ingredients on the daily so that's why there isn't a set menu. She brought me water in a pitcher and a cup. I asked them what the vegetarian options were and she gladly explained each dish - which I found very helpful. They also have Vegan options. I went with the Thoran dish. I forgot the exact ingredients but it had shredded beet, coconut, mustard seeds, curry leaves & sour cream. It was my first time having Thoran - and WOW, they made it sooooo yummy! I pretty much finished the whole thing. You could tell that they had a lot of regulars & how personable the owners are. So friendly & felt like family. All in all - I recommend! It's interesting to see what else they have to offer on different days :)

This place is crazy. That's why it fun to go to. Only two tables that you share with other locals…read more The menu is handwritten on a piece of paper, actually on a pastry bag. The dessert menu is written on receipt tape. But everything that they serve is made with intention and passion. A couple things to note, they are only open from noon to 3pm. Or 12:00-15:00. Why? Cuz that's how they wanna do it. And I respect that. They use local ingredients, and pickle things themselves...in the window sill. The place is a bit cluttered, but I felt like I was warmly welcomed into someone's home where the flavors was way more important than the lighting... or the clutter...or the lack of beer on tap. (By the way... I walked about 40 steps to a little market and bought two .5 liter cans. It was probably cheaper than what the restaurant would have charged me anyway. And, you can do this...anywhere else in the world besides the US! Do yourself a favor. Take your girl here...or go with her because she'll wanna go here. And you'll be happy too. You may want a cheeseburger on the way home to fill a few hunger holes, but it's inexpensive and delicious and you may get a little lovin for going! Slàinté! Tim
