A lady working there gave my husband a rude lecture about how Americanos are made with boiling water, no apology, no kindness. We know that. Also note that as a person who has had thousands of americanos in my life, this one with oat milk was way hotter than normal. If you go there please be aware that the way they don't put the lids on drinks properly and you may be injured. I get that accidents happen but saying sorry and being decent go a long way.

We had a nice lunch sitting in the back looking out the window. Stopped in because I'm a Walsh.read more

Good atmosphere and the staff was very nice. 5/5 - quiche with goat cheese, spinach & potato. It paired perfectly with the salad which was a mix of leafy greens, chickpea salad, and pickled beets. All amazing but the beets were the best I've ever had. Flat white was good too! 5/5 - pancakes, streaky bacon, & maple syrup. My husband ordered this, it was really good. 6/5 - lemon blueberry muffin & plain croissant. We got this take away for a snack later. I'm sad I didn't try to there because it was amazing and I would have ordered more. They really know what they are doing with the pastries.

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.

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.

The menu looks great so I decided to have brunch even though I already had breakfast. I got a latte, strawberry pancakes and a raisin scone. You order at the counter and they will bring the food to your table. I'm normally not a pancake person, but when I saw other customers eating it I was craving some all of a sudden. They were fluffy and scrumptious. The scone was a tad try but not bad with the butter it came with. The hot latte was perfect on that one cold day we visited. If only I hadn't already had breakfast, I think I would have ordered even more food.

We had two spicy beef casseroles that were packed with flavor, along with two sandwich-and-salad combos that hit the spot perfectly. I grabbed a cup of the ginger carrot soup, and it was fantastic. Do yourself a favor and save room for dessert -- the cinnamon apple piece is an absolute must-try. And honestly, the lattes and coffees alone are worth pulling over for. If you're in the area, please give this family-run place a visit. You won't be disappointed. It's such a treat when you unexpectedly discover a treasure like this one.

I'd certainly recommend eating here if you have the chance to explore outside of Galway.
