Small and charming restaurant with a beautiful, cozy atmosphere. The menu is limited, but everything we ordered was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented. The space feels calm, relaxing, and thoughtfully decorated, which made breakfast feel extra special. A lovely little find and definitely worth a visit! ❤️

This restaurant is very pretty. We got the Irish breakfast and an omelette and they were delicious. They have gluten free bread which was decent. The americano and latte were great. Service was also great. Prices were good as well.
An Nead, entrance through the hotel. Cute atmosphere, good music, cozy fire. The service was polite and fast. Stopped by for breakfast on our way through. The fruit scones are quite nice. Served with butter and delicious jam. The latte was perfect with wonderful foam art.
