Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous. Why don't more people from Celbridge come here?! I don't get it! Maybe…read morebecause you can't access it from the main street in your car any more?! If I still lived in Celbridge, this is definitely somewhere I'd be frequenting a lot more.. eh.. frequently..!!! Or maybe it's the lack of online presence?! I can't find anything about the cafe on the Castletown House website for example?! Why?! So here's what ye do. Go for a whopper walk up along the river, go over to the obelisk and imagine what it would have been like to have been hanging out with the Connolys and Johnathan Swifts and the likes, get a bitta wind in your hair, then get yourself over into the Courtyard Cafe in the grounds of the wonderful Castletown House, and get the warmth back in you. Get a nice sambo or hot meal and a lovingly made hot chocolate and cake to finish. You'll walk home with a spring in your step, guaranteed.

Coffee was great too so if you just want to sip away while enjoying their outdoor seating then here is a good choice

GREAT VALUE. If you want good food but staying within traveling budget, go for this one. Nice service, satisfying food. Gist below Burrito: Nicely done--and this is coming from a guy from California. Recommend the "Mighty Meaty" burrito, with 3 meats mixed into one (beef, pork, and chicken combo). Rhubarb Pie: Tastes good. One interesting note--if you are counting calories, this is a good one to go for, since their crust, while delicious, is lower in fat.

I ordered the vegetarian lasagna but I was apologetically informed that only a small portion remained. I smiled, "That's grand 'coz I was gonna have a scone too." She gave me the scone on the house. I'd been told the scones were to die for. They're not worth becoming a modern-day martyr for but I did start chewing really slowly just so I could hold the taste in my mouth for longer. I refuse to use the term "amazeballs" but I have to admit that it entered my head in this moment. Also, I'm pretty sure I witnessed a young couple dramatically break up outside the window as I savoured a scone. Sometimes, it pays to be single.

Food was delivered incredibly quickly and they were able to seat a large family in a few minutes even though it was jammers. It was a while since we got the food so I can't remember what kind of burger I got (no wifi/data as we were in the sticks soo only seeing on Yelp now) but it was loaded with cheese and had a massive amount of meat. The ribs looked to die for, as you might be able to see by an earlier review posted with a picture. They were insanely good! I had a small taste and almost started drooling from how juicy and succulent it tasted! Along with the amazing food there is a little space outside that sells fresh veg and a small pen with little animals kept. Very family friendly environment!
