    Came here after seeing reviews online and it did not disappoint! Ordered the chicken guacamole sandwich and I think it was the best food I have had in Ireland so far. The restaurant is cute and the staff was so nice. Highly recommend!

    Place is filled with locals and tourists alike because they have great coffee and a variety of delicious scones, pastries, toasties (toast with different toppings) and even soups and salads during lunchtime. They also have a nice selection of books to browse. I particularly liked the scones that are baked fresh each morning. Everything is reasonably priced with regular coffee being around 2.20 euros. Be aware that they don't do drip coffee in Ireland; it's basically an Americano when you ask for just coffee.

    This was a great stop in Kinsale! It was quiet and calm. Only paid about €20 for 2 people got a 1/2 sandwich and soup, their cheese was very good and their bread was very fresh as well. We almost went back for dinner! They had leek cheddar soup and a different variety of sandwiches to choose from. I wish the door would have been closed because there were many flies around but Ireland in the summer doesn't have AC so there had to be some way to get air in. They have some baked goods as well that are brought in fresh from a baker in the area. Definitely worth a visit, the staff was very nice and helpful and their regular hot chocolate was delightful. If I come back I would stop again.

    Great brunch or lunch spot. My husband and I had soup and sandwich with scones and tea. We loved all their decor.
