My sister ordered a bagel with cream cheese and they packed the frosting on. I've never seen so much cream cheese in my life. The chocolate fudge cake was horrible omg. Disgrace.

I'm fast becoming a Costa fan. They do deliver up a delicious flat white at a fair price and the…read morestaff are friendly. This bright and airy place is nestled in an edge of town pay to park shopping centre that really isn't worth visiting as it only has very few stores. Although I'm not long experienced with the brand I have noted a few times that unlike the Starbucks brand, the floors and chairs are clean so your shoes don't stick to the floor as you walk, the staff clean down the tables fairly promptly and they provide paying customers with a fairly good working WiFi. I've been to four different Starbucks in the last few weeks and it's clear that the franchisee has removed the facility. I'm delighted also to note that they will cheerfully give iced tap water on request without any need to charge for the vessel they opt to put the water into.

I like the Costa chain and this branch in Mullingar is pretty spacious and bright with lots of…read morecomfortable seating and large windows. It's located in the Fairgreen shopping centre and is open pretty late (7 or 8pm). Also, you can make use of the free wifi from the shopping centre. The coffee is the same as any other Costa; very large coffee sizes, not too strong and generally more milky, so it's great for those that prefer mild or diluted coffee as opposed to a strong short blend. I find that they're flat whites are very milky and mild compared to specialist barista houses. However, they do great Cortados and the Cappuccinos are pretty good too. There is a large selection of sweet treats such as brownies, muffins, croissants, pastries etc. as well as savoury items such as sandwiches, porridge, yoghurt and ciabatta. The prices are cheaper than Starbucks (€2.45 for a small Americano, €2.90 for most other drinks). I find the coffee tastes a lot better as I'm more of a Costa person (not a fan of Starbucks), but in terms of volume and atmosphere, the two chains are comparable. The service is good, and they have skinny and soya milk alternatives available for no extra charge. Overall: Spacious, bright, free wifi, large coffee sizes and easy access.

Wholesome foods was amazing I have a lot of different food allergies one of my friends is allergic…read moreto shrimp and my mother and our friend is very picky. I spent a lot of time one night searching for somewhere that I thought all of our pallets would like and I'm so glad I chose this restaurant. If there was a grade higher than an A+ plus they would get it. Toss out a raggedy Gokd star they get a diamond star. The staff was gorgeous and so friendly and like they get such a nice ambience in the restaurant. The decor was comfortable and really pretty and slightly eclectic but that's my style. And the food oh my God kisses to the chef he actually managed to get everybody in my party to eat a whole meal without complaining. Everything was seasoned so well which even though the food is fresher and so much better in Ireland there was several restaurants that we ate at where I was like there's no flavor. You cannot say that about Wholesome foods they are named appropriately it was such a good time. Though I may make one suggestion and that's the required uniform for the females all of their shirts are sheer. If they comfortable in it all to you ladies you looked great. If not maybe let the girls have a different shirt. Also thank you for hot, delicious , well portioned, and amazing food and desert !!!

This was another five star stop during our Tour of Ireland. Reminds me of a lot of organic and…read morefresh food spots back home. This was during one of our drives between cities and this was a wonderful stop. The ambience of the city, the location, and most of all the food was superbly on point and prepared perfectly. Plenty of healthy options, plenty of fresh juice options, and plenty of options for those with dietary restrictions. I'm looking forward to returning sometime in the near future and hopefully bringing some of my friends back with me. The city in general, the historical value of the buildings, and the overall feel was something that people must experience.
