Went here today and it's pretty awful in terms of the food. The picture shows the tepid excuse for Beef Bourguignon that was mostly carrots and clumpy rice (a ravenous bloodhound would he hard pressed to find the meat), wasn't even heated up properly, that's the annoying part, that they don't care.
Everything is half full, even paid for an extra portion of chips which were half full, and cheap frozen chips at that. This place is just another symbol of rip-off Ireland in my opinion and the price for two lunches of questionable quality, temperature and portion size was just under €60... for café food!

It wasnt good - fish was hard and without any creamy texture or sauce and it had been reheated with a chunk of lemon on top that not alone looked unappealing but made the mash taste like lemon peal. I wanted to be discreet so called and gave it to the waitress who just asked would i like something else - doubt she even told the chef - so no learning there. Coffee however was great and they had alternative milks - i really like the place so this was very disappointing. Buyer beware. Maybe stick to salad they are to die for and you can box them up and bring them home from...
