I can't believe I have never been in here ...I popped in as I was passing and really wanted an acai bowl then I saw the rest of the food and wanted it all.. even though they were super busy they were really nice and the guy (who was cute) gave me free cake ... ll definitely be back

The acai bowl is delicious and so is the coffee. Definitely worth a visit. The staff are also lovely and very helpful. It would be good if they could get a highchair for the little one. Overall, great place

We didn't find this place until the day we were leaving Ennis. That was our loss. This place has BEST COFFEE and the nicest people in Ireland . The staff was so helpful.. they made the coffee custom to our taste.. They have full breakfast but we had scones and coffee and it was great.. They even had cream for your coffee.. how great is that.. The staff are incredibly nice.. they went out of their way to help us. If you are in Ennis or within 50 km.. eat here.. you will be blessed.

Best. Breakfast. Ever! The first thing we noticed was the positive attitude of the staff. They seemed to have their best time serving their customers. Not only just friendly, but happy to work there, their smiles genuine. We spoke to the owner when we told him the food was exceptional, every omelette, or scone, or toast. Everything prepared to the wishes of us, every ingredient could be picked to our individual likings. The taste was outstanding! Very delicious, along with the great coffee choices and teas a culinary feast! The simple explanation by Fionn: "Nothing beats fresh ingredients". I'd like to add: Only if prepared with love for food, joy and customer dedication, then you can experience what we did: Exceptional taste with grand service. Our best breakfast so far, thank you guys
