If you are looking for really fantastic, locally sourced food then you should try Ginger Lou's. The…read morecafe is really nice and spacious and I got an instant homey vibe. Lou herself greeted us with a big smile and some menus to peruse. They have a really great selection, with daily specials to boot. I went for the BLT which comes with a cup of soup, butternut squash in this instance. I also got a flat white coffee. The BLT was lovely. The bacon was crispy and I could get that smokey taste. It came with a handful of crisps. The cup of soup was a really nice accompaniment. I wish I had of left room for cake because they looked lovely. Ginger Lou's is a must, great food and great service. Definitely worth stopping by for food and to support a fantastic local business. Tip: They have free WiFi. Can this place get any better.

We were driving through Doolin and decided to follow signs to the Doolin Crafts Gallery, hoping to…read morepick up a few gifts for folks back home. We found Brian Hackett hard at work in his jewelry studio, which I think has taken over the Crafts Gallery space. In any case, we were impressed by Brian's work but were not in the market for jewelry, so we moved along. In the other wing of the building, we were astounded to find the most AMAZING little bakery - to think we almost drove right by this place and didn't even know it existed. Fabiola, Brian's partner, has brought a little piece of France to this quiet corner of Ireland! Her delicate pastries and exquisite desserts reflect professional training and an artistic eye. They taste every bit as good as they look, too... I am still dreaming about the raspberry tart. Oh, la la. Fabiola herself is a welcoming host and will make you feel right at home as you enjoy her sun-bathed cafe, which overlooks the patio garden and fields beyond. A magical place, with cheerful touches of color and character in every inch of the decor...the perfect spot to sit and stay a while as you savor a mouth-watering pastry or scone and linger over a cup of dark, true coffee. Not to be missed if you are passing through Doolin. If the signs for the Doolin Crafts Gallery lead you astray, here is my best attempt at directions: take R479 northeast out of Doolin. About 1.0km out of town, you will see a large white church on a right-hand corner. Take a right on the lane just before it (L1036, I believe). The cafe and jewelry gallery will just a few hundred meters up on your right.

The only downfall was that it was manic and some people had to wait. Some of the customers, I thought, were very arrogant, but that's not the cafes fault.

It's popular and oftentimes there is a line to get a table. The staff does their best to seat guests as soon as possible. Note the closing time of 8pm is firm, so be sure to arrive before that. Staff is kind but due to the busyness of the restaurant, service can be scattered or slow, so remember, you're on vacation. Wine and beer available. Parking can be difficult in the area. Allow time to find parking, if you're driving.
