Great service and amazing sandwiches. I got the Pork Belly Avo sandwich. The bread was so fluffy and the flavor of the sauces were so good. 10/10 would be back every week if I didn't live in the states read more

Oh Shell, I love your cafe! My only issue was that I could not eat all the food. If you are in Strandhill? Then Shells is a must. It's a really cute and cosy cafe serving delicious salads, sandwiches, toasties and soup. I went for the toasted ham and cheese, with a sneaky pineapple jam with a small bowl of the soup if the day (celeriac and coconut). The soup was unreal, who knew celeriac would make such a tasty soup. The toasty was my dream toasty, proper roast ham slices, melt cheese and the pineapple jam. Dipped in the soup for some added tastiness. Also, I fancied some chips. Proper chips. Got some chips. Polished off said chips. After the food, we popped into the little shop next door. Wanted to buy all the things. Gorgeous! read more

Great coffee, pastries (the almond bakewell, cinnamon rolls, and morning buns are amazing), enormous breakfast burritos, soups, burgers, melts, kids menu, beer, wine, etc. Sit outside with a view of the sea, the tables are large and communal. Friendly and attentive service, a real gem in Strandhill. read more

We had lunch here after going to the spa next door and it was amazing! We were waiting on friends and honestly wandered in to have a cup of tea while waiting. It was packed and couldn't get a table but we noticed the food and it looked so good so we decided to come back with our friends. So glad we did! I had the homemade lemonade, the roasted celeriac & organic parsnip soup and the chicken salad. Everything was so fresh and delicious and the soda bread that came with both dishes was incredible! Definitely recommend! read more

Cute little cafe in Strand Hill. All the servers are easy going and friendly. We popped in for an early dinner after exploring Carrowmore and walking around the sand dunes. Everything on the menu looks super tasty but we needed up with the Oodles of Noodles, their version of Asian chicken noodle soup, and a salad. Rather than order another entree, we opted to save room for dessert, as they have tons of freshly-baked muffins, cakes, bars and pie. We opted for the coconut and parsnip cake mainly because the server said it was like carrot cake and when else are you going to have cake with parsnip in it? The soup was tasty and hearty. Each ingredient (noddles, grilled chicken breast, vegetables) was great. My only qualm was that the sourness in the soup didn't really blend with the chicken. I personally would have liked grilled chicken thigh to have the fattiness blend better with the sour. The salad was fresh and tasty, with some amazing tomatoes and arugula. We ordered the cake with a scoop of ice cream. It was awesome. I wish I could have come earlier in the day to try their pie with lunch. The next day, I contemplated driving back south to Strand Hill just so I could have another meal there. Once we finished, we leisurely had a tea and the folks were nice enough to let us leisurely drink while they cleaned up rather than trying to quickly push us out. We even chatted them up about the village and local surfing. So anyway, definitely worth a meal if you're in the area. Even if you're not, the desserts may be worth the trip read more

Shells is a welcome sanctuary from the wild winds of this little seaside town. Great home cooking which is guaranteed to warm your cockles after a brisk walk on the beach. Everything on the menu is made fresh daily onsite and is always served up with a smile. I have sampled everything from the sandwiches served on pillow fresh bread through to the famous fish and chips. Whatever you are hungry for Shells provide a substantial supper. Don't even get me started on the cakes - if you cant fit one in don't leave empty handed - believe me you will regret it - get a sweety to take away. All the cakes and slices are delicious as the view. read more

I love Shells, the food, the decor and the friendly staff. Their regular menu items are great. Love their burger and my husband loves their fish and chips. I am always tempted to try the specials. The shop is great too with unusual stock. There is only one problem with Shells, it can be very noisy at times. read more
