    I just had to be the first to give a five-star review. I only get to patronize Bradbury's maybe…read moreonce a year when we are visiting in Newbridge. While I have never had breakfast or lunch, I can say that the pastries and cakes are positively gorgeous.

    One snowy day last week, I peeked out from beneath my woolly hat and spotted a large sign promising…read more"Coffee & Cake just €2 in Bradbury's". Up until then, I'd avoided this establishment as I'd found it particularly expensive. I was sure there must be a catch. Usually, just a coffee costs more than that. Maybe, only one or two disgusting cakes that were about to go off were included in the offer. Since that fateful day, I've dragged (okay at that price, they came pretty willingly) three friends here, and I was pleasantly surprised to learn that there was no catch. One can enjoy tea or any type of coffee with any choice of cake (apart from the Gingerbread Man. No point trying to save him missus, a fox gets him in the end). Although the waitress was friendly, she was impatient for us to order quickly. With such a selection, I'd rather be left alone for a few minutes to make my mind up. Today, I was more in the mood for something savoury so I had the Shepherd's Pie with a selection of salads, which was very tasty. At €7.99, I still find the savoury food to be over priced. I ordered a coffee with my lunch. The helpful waitress pointed out that I may as well get a dessert. She then stared at me until I made a decision. I panicked and asked for a mince pie (even though I know I don't like them). Seen as we had a lot to catch up on, my friend bought us a couple more Americanos. She arrived back to the table, happy with her doggie bag of two mince pies. As long as this offer lasts, I'll be bringing everyone and anyone here. Nice on the wallet but not on the dress size, I'm sure...

    This is an unusual review for me as we didn't nor wouldn't actually dine in this over priced place…read morebecause it's factory processed, antibiotic laden, cheap chicken that ain't my idea of a good meal in or out. It gives me a reason to have a rant on yet another birthday. Boy they come around faster and faster. Still if I joined the choir invisible today I'd have no grounds for complaint. I reached an age I never imagined and it's been a real adventure with the greatest woman on earth with me over 50 years. Back to this chicken shack. I did once try their peri sauces and found them acrid and unpleasant the least they could do is balance the sourness. Most of the sides too are factory made, batch - frozen and delivered in store so there ain't a lot of actual cooking going on. More oven and microwave prep. There was a time when the saving grace of these places was that they were cheap, and maybe even cheerful, very much because it's processed antibiotic laden, cheap flaccid underdeveloped chicken and the factory produced vegetable sides: potatoes (mash & chips) white rice, frozen cob corn (yeuch) peas, coleslaw and white bread were and still are relatively cheap, but production costs have risen (and now are falling back) price gouging is in the mix but they still get away with minimum wages. If you take the two butterfly breast burger meal with two sides on their menu for one person (€21) I can buy two 35 day, dry aged, 10 oz Irish sirloin steaks with two servings of either home made chips, or my own very good buttery maris piper mash, carrots and parsnips for less than €21 for two people say €10 each including cooking and I'd still have left over potatoes, carrot and parsnip to make well seasoned potato cakes fried in butter as part of another meal. This restaurant also sells chicken livers at a whopping €18.25 with 2 sides. Livers retail at €5 a kilo. If I swopped the two steaks above for fresh chicken livers my meal would be about €4 euro a head or 4 such meals for the price of this particular €21 chicken dinner. If you genuinely can't afford proper dine out food why not skip two Nando's and get one from somewhere that actually cooks much of its food from scratch and provided flavour.

    Very recent and welcome addition to the food options at Whitewater, Nandos offers exactly the same…read morechicken with everything you'd expect. It does exactly what it says on the tin. On this occasion, however, the chips were a bit overdone, the burger bun was somewhat under baked and the chicken somewhat underwhelming. I know they can do this but, on a first visit, it was somewhat meh!
