    If you know whats good for you, you'll get yourself down to The Sweet Beat on Bridge Street! They…read moreoffer breakfast, lunch and smoothies/coffees to go. Fresh and healthy superfood salads, juices, dairy free sweet treats, daily hot specials, 3fe coffee and teas - all offered with dairy free milk options. I had the superfood salad of massaged kale, chickpeas, and spiced cous cous (with cranberries, pomegranate and pesto) for lunch. For €7.50 it filled me up for the day and is far more exciting then the dull packaged leaves and uninspiring dash of olive oil salads you get in other establishments. These salads ARE the dish, not just a bit of green on the side - they demand your attention and don't disappoint on taste! Less than a 5 minute stroll from O'Connell St, in the summer it'd be lovely to get a salad to go at lunch time and eat it along the riverside. I imagine the menu will expand as the business does, as chef-cum-proprietor Carolanne is Ballymaloe trained and well travelled! They maintain an active social media presence @sweetbeatsligo and already have a loyal following of customers - including me! Watch this space, as it expands into something brilliant, its thrilling to see young businesses like this bringing the heart back into Sligo town.

    A must when visiting the area. Super food. Tasty, fresh and good for the soul. Good selection of…read moresalads, soup of the day and larger "dailies" as an option e.g. Best bourguignon and patatas bravas!! also a variety of milk options for your coffee choice!!

It is located in the heritage center.Upon entering I was made feel very Welcome. I was handed a menu and my drinks order was taken. I ordered the Irish Breakfast. It was absolutely delicious and was just perfect! Definitely no complaints from me. The toast was made perfectly. The staff always make sure you are taken care of. I ended up going to Sheila's Coffee & Cream at least four times during my stay in Ardara. I also tried their desserts, scones and toasties . Everything tasted amazing! The staff are all professional, kind and genuinely care about their customers. Sheila's Coffee & Cream rates Five Stars and more! It should be noted I am originally from Dublin, Ireland, lived in the United States for over thirty years and served in the United States Marines all over the world. I definitely know a great Coffee Shop from all my travels and life experiences. I definitely will return to Sheila's Coffee & Cream in the near future. This establishment rates five stars and more! A must visit when in Ardara!

Only open since Easter 2012, it was opened so recently you can smell the newness when you walk in. It wasn't even listed on here until I added it! I've only visited The Stepping Stone, but no doubt it's definitely one of the best gastropubs in the area. The decor is very clean an modern and the staff are all really helpful and friendly. We came here for lunch on a rainy Tuesday afternoon and were surprised at the quality! From what I've tasted, soup and sandwiches definitely seem to be their strong point. Very tasty, a lot of work seems to go into everything. We had club sandwiches (delicious), prawn cocktail, soup and chicken wings, all well worth the money and great value too. The only thing I wouldn't recommend is the coffee, made from an instant machine, it's not the best. However, from what I've tasted I can't wait to try dinner here and in the Bank Bistro. One way to judge a place is if the locals eat there or not, and here, they do. It was packed! One thing to note though, they do play a lot of Daniel O' Donnel, so if you're not a fan, maybe you'd better think twice. But still, its a hidden gem nonetheless.

    Great friendly staff. A fantastic menu. The decor is lovely. It's some where I will for sure return…read morewithout a problem

The place rebranded a couple of years ago, and looks very cool and contemporary - wouldn't look out of place in Dublin city, but retains the charm of Sligo - facilitated by the Sisters O'Hara, the three sisters who are the creative energy behind the place. As well as a deli selling a wide range of speciality foods, teas, a 'free from' section, fresh cheeses, teas/coffees, sweet treats and lunches/dinners to go - there's also a dedicated skincare section, with some high end and reasonably priced beauty products. The window display changes with the seasons, as well as the stock. They're always ahead of the crowd, and this is a great spot to pick up a special gift. They're very active on social media and their instagram @kateskitchensligo is a feast for the eyes if you can't get instore. There's usually a veggie option at lunch, and try one of my personal faves - the coconut macaroons!

The deli has a whole host of delights not all Irish sourced but of very good pedigree none the less. I bought a fantastic carmelised chutney that I would like some more of.
