No13 The Factory — Restaurant in Limerick

The best coffee in Limerick, in my opinion. I have the privilege of working across from Factory 13 so I go here for coffee (and usually a croissant) every morning. The coffee is creamy and very tasty, not watery at all like you get in some other establishments. The pastries are always fresh.

However today I visited the factory and was very disappointed with my Cajun melt sandwich as it lacked flavour, the bread absorbed all the mayo so the sandwich was very dry. Along with this I got crispy bacon however the chef failed to distinguish between crispy bacon and burnt bacon. Two of my friends got the exact same and concurred with what I’ve just said.
