Although I've been Ireland 10 months already, I've only recently discovered the joy that is a full…read moreIrish breakfast! When I arrived at The Plaza Bistro, I wanted breakfast, but I thought I'd have to settle for lunch. Lo' and behold, breakfast was available! And in that brief moment, the sun shone through the rain and all was right in the world. :-D Okay, so it wasn't exactly like that, but I was really hungry! I ordered the jumbo Irish breakfast (no beans) and wasn't disappointed. The egg was soft and the sausages had a little char. Their toast was really good, too, and I seldom would write about toast! One of the best parts of my breakfast, was that they serve filter coffee! Oh, how I miss good ol' filter coffee. They only give one free refill, but I can live with that. The atmosphere reminds me of a diner. They even have one of those refrigerated cases with desserts on display. Nothing like diner desserts, but still... They also have a salad bar. The Irish version, not the US version, if you're American. The Plaza lacks cleanliness, even though the staff seemed to be constantly sweeping. The staff are very friendly and attentive. I'd return for breakfast if I'm in the area again and I'd recommend it for the food.

We…read morehad crappy internet the entire trip, so we never got the chance to leave the reviews we wanted. I just came across a delicious photo of my lunch from that day, and had to come back and write that review we owed this place. Great food, great menu, and great service. We had a lovely conversation with our waiter, felt like we got to know him personally. Mick and Jimmy's was a pleasant surprise on a quick stop for lunch, nobody expected it to be one of the food highlights of our trip...but it certainly was! Thanks for the great memories, we will certainly return the next time we come back to Ireland.

The interior is clean and quaint with fresh flowers on each table and a carafe of water infused with fresh cut oranges and limes. It was very refreshing. The coffee was superb.

It is on the way to Old Head, which is also worth the drive.

"THE BEST FULL IRISH IN THE COUNTRY!!!!"…read more 5 Stars. Five. If I could give more I would. If you love breakfast, you need to take a trip to Midleton, Co Cork. At The Pantry, you'll be served what can only be described as The most serious contender for BEST FULL IRISH IN THE COUNTRY!!!! This is not something I take lightly. I have enjoyed far too many a Full Irish's up and down our fair island...and I'm not joking - SO MANY breakfasts. But never have been inspired to put my feelings about any meal in writing...nevermind post them online. Until now. I first wandered into The Pantry just over a year ago looking for a breakfast...we were met a smile and welcome from Gordon who runs the show. He was quick to find us a comfortable table with plenty space for our buggy (a high chair was available but we didn't need it) and to bring us some tea and coffee (both great by the way). We each ordered the Full Irish. Breakfasts are cooked to order and service is efficient and attentive. Food arrived in good time. Respectively, each item on each plate was cooked perfectly. Food was out of a frying pan and not a deep fryer. Each meal came with tea/coffee and toast...as it should do. We got to speak with Gordon after our meal. He told us about his experience running the The Pantry, about how they bake their own bread daily, about all the different local suppliers..for the sausages, for the bacon, for the pudding, etc. The Pantry is a bright and welcoming cafe/bistro serving a tempting variety of foods throughout the day. Go for a coffee and a cake of go for The BEST FULL IRISH you're ever likely to be served...go for the welcome alone...just go. FIVE STARS. 5! Following that, and in the interest of a fair and impartial review, I should mention the negatives: Each time I visit, I can't help but be reminded of the fact that I live 161 and a half miles away (260km)...and I can never help but think about how long it might be before I'll be able to get another breakfast here. That's me. That's my review. Cheers Gordo. You're the man.

I had a delicious toasty with ham and some of the wonderful Irish cheese, which came with a nice little salad. The honey mustard dressing was really yummy.

Planning to stop by on our way out of town for some to-go treats. I read some reviews with complaints about price, but honestly I think the prices are reasonable for the quality and portions that are served.
