Spiced Bean Cafe — Restaurant in County Westmeath

Eventually, he got the food together. .As he got all the orders mixed up and was serving takeaway people and left us completely waiting till he finished this.Yet i was there before all these people ordered .And we were also in a hurry....My friend wanted to walk out and get a refund as he was unable to cope. ...Now the quiche and salad I had was not great at all the pastry on it was absolutely dreadful.Hard and chewy and hard to cut into.Just bad pastry ..The salads were perfect and tasty.
