Driving down Shankill Road you wouldn't expect a lovely Cafe / Restaurant here. In what rather…read morelooks like a car park with industrial businesses. But inside it's a lovely decorated restaurant, with very good food and friendly staff. And it's actually busy enough too, so a lot of people did discover the Cafe by now. I only had a coffee and a Hot Cross bun but both where lovely and the menu looked tempting enough. But it wasn't the time of day to have more than a snack. So it's definitely a place new on my map where I will come back to and try more.

Located in The Park of Cabinteely up by the primary school, I discovered this little gem. The food…read morewas really tasty! I went for the hummus wrap which came with two side bowls of couscous and spicy chickpeas. The decor was homely and country kitchen-esque and there was a book shelf set up for book swaps. They cater for groups too with byob option which can be handy. Over all, I nice spot for lunch and the free parking is a bonus ;)

The beef burger is delicious with cheese loaded potato skins-you won't be hungry after! Loads of homemade cakes and sausage rolls etc. are on display to tempt you. Great selection of choices on the menu with plenty of gluten free options. Breakfast served until 2pm at the weekend which I think should be the norm. One of our party had the French toast and it tasted amazing! I'll be back!

Been here on a few occasions and for example, my most recent visit... It was a super cold winters day and I was looking forward to getting inside but they didn't really have much heat going on, many people still sitting with jackets and scarfs on, take the hint..!!! Also, it was 3pm and they had no sandwiches on display people had to ask for them and the lady seemed troubled to go out the back and bring a few options out... Plus for a great little cafe building and area, they have only pre-made sandwiches, ye know the kind in cardboard/plastic sleeves. They don't have any option to toast them and also pretty sad, they cut it into quarters and serve it on a plate... Eh, we all known I've just bought a cardboard sandwich, serving it to me in triangles doesn't make it any more gourmet. Also, 3pm... Cold winters day and they had ran out of soup, yep, no soup... Was half expecting her to say they had no hot water for my cup of tea, but it's ok, hot water was in stock :-) Service wise, they really could do with putting on a smile... There's little or no pleasantries from the staff which is such a shame and as a tourist hub, they don't give off that renowned Irish Charm.

Should have gotten up when I was told that they haven't got any avocado left. But it felt awkward…read moresince I was sitting down already so I stayed and ordered scrambled eggs, sausages and salad as a side... sausages were quite small, and the salad was a sliced tomato and a few leave. Everything was dry and ti be honest, underwhelming. For a food like that I could've rustled up at home (end even better!) without spending €10. It felt ironic to be walking out f the place and seeing while avocados displayed on the window shelf... could have been mashed, no?

Just be mindful some are set for brunch and available at certain times only Even tho they were 3/4 full I only waited 5mins for it. In that time I go my coffee to enjoy and a glass of water. Very good service. Location wise can be hassle getting car parking as the area is limited for on street and it's pay parking too. Inside it's very simple, someone said hipster in a past review, I wouldn't say that. It's got the no frills look, bare concrete and long bench tables but it works great. Easily can see a opportunity at the weekend to grab a coffee and sit down for a hour reading a book. Staff are very good

It has great atmosphere, fresh food from local suppliers and they even sell handmade goodies from soaps to jams!

You will notice they are all italian which gave me an even more confident my coffee would be amazing. #2: Vegan option: I'm not vegan but they have great vegan option for vegans. But the non-vegan options were delicious as well. The croissant I ordered was buttery, and flaky. The strawberry jam tastes like home made without any added sugar. #3: Affordability: Compared to Dublin, this place is a steal. Finally: A++ go get your coffee and food so you can go walk around Bray or even hike up that mountain.

It only holds about 15 people. But the food, coffee, and service is about as good as it gets. These people are passionate about what they do. I come specifically for the awesome vegan Caravaggio sandwich (on ciabatta). Everything is freshly made by them and unlike anything you will get anywhere else. Except maybe Italy! There are usually lots of Italian customers there, speaking Italian. This is a very good sign. The place is full of interesting old books people are free to browse. A quirk is an underlying 'cat' theme. Quotes and pictures about cats all over. Hand drawn images of cats by customers also adorn the walks, as to Italian record albums. I come way out of my way to come here regularly and will continue to as long as possible. Note: their fabulous bread selection comes fresh daily from the Firehouse bakery in Delgany.
