I used to be a frequent breakfast visitor to the Straffan tea rooms and four of us decided to…read morereturn today after a few months going to other venues. Today was not the same positive experience we used to enjoy. 1. I ordered the full Irish and asked for side of sweet potato (as shown on the vegetarian menu) instead of black pudding. The server said I can't have that. I didn't think I heard her correctly and asked if they have any potato. "Yes but you can only have it with the vegetarian breakfast as we have a limited supply." Never knew Ireland was short on spuds! 2. My friend has a sensitivity to egg yolks and asked for eggs with just whites. It couldn't happen as the chef can not separate (I'm not a chef but I can do this!) She then asked for the fried egg to be so well done that she could cut the yolk out. The eggs came nearly as runny as a poached egg. 3. We were offered a choice of white or brown toast with our breakfast. Later the server said that the white bread had not been cooked yet. We had to have homemade brown bread which is not the same with a full Irish breakfast. 4. We asked for jam for the brown bread. The server brought a mini side of jam that was barely enough for one piece of brown bread not the 8 slices at our table For the €13 breakfast (with coffees), we would expect a better experience like we get at Avoca's Egg Cafe

I popped in for breakfast with friends just before Christmas. Had a lovely poached egg with sausages (yummo - they source them from nearby Celbridge). The baked goods all looked gorgeous, and my son devoured his pastry without letting me try a bite! Staff was friendly and efficient, the prices were great, but mostly I'd recommend the Victorian Tea Rooms for the cosy atmosphere. Plus, the shopping at the Straffan Courtyard is not to be missed!

If I still lived in Celbridge, this is definitely somewhere I'd be frequenting a lot more.. eh.. frequently..!!! Or maybe it's the lack of online presence?! I can't find anything about the cafe on the Castletown House website for example?! Why?! So here's what ye do. Go for a whopper walk up along the river, go over to the obelisk and imagine what it would have been like to have been hanging out with the Connolys and Johnathan Swifts and the likes, get a bitta wind in your hair, then get yourself over into the Courtyard Cafe in the grounds of the wonderful Castletown House, and get the warmth back in you. Get a nice sambo or hot meal and a lovingly made hot chocolate and cake to finish. You'll walk home with a spring in your step, guaranteed.

This place is so cute and decadent. The atmosphere reminds me of a quaint coffee shop (which, I…read moresuppose, it is). I went here for breakfast and ordered their Irish Porridge with seasonal fruit, cream and toasted almonds along with a blueberry scone (can't visit a tart shop and not order a dessert). The porridge was huge. There was no way that I needed both the porridge and the scone but when in Dublin... It was creamy and had a great thick texture. The scone was light and fluffy and paired well with the butter and jam they give you. My only complaint was that I would have liked a larger cup of jam for my scone but only because it was so good! I would definitely go back and I highly recommend this place.

I had heard they had beautiful gardens and a nice place to stop for lunch. I have to say, the gardens were indeed absolutely beautiful. There was a wedding being prepared inside the house, so you weren't allowed to go inside when I was there. However, I'm not sure if you're normally allowed inside or not. After spending about an hour walking around the grounds and snapping photos, we stopped at the little outdoor cafe by the manor house for some coffee and lunch. We each had a sandwich which came with a little side salad. There was also nice classical/light jazz music playing in the background. I have to say, it made for quite the relaxing afternoon. From the area where they serve food, you overlook the gardens as you sit out in the sun. If it does start raining, which, because this is Ireland, invariably it will... they do have some limited seating. Would love to come here next time and sit outside with some wine. :)

Other patrons will come in and get menus and unless I actively flag someone (usually only one person on the floor) down, I never get served. On my third time, I thought I'd wait to see how long it took. Over an hour went by (while I was using my laptop and their wifi) and still no one came to me. Finally my friend stopped by and just ordered at the till. It's a cute place and good working spot but I won't be coming back. Again, hate to make this a race issue but as the only non-Asian, non-white person in there (every time)and then to be ignored consistently on multiple occasions is upsetting. It's really easy: serve good food and be mildly attentive to your customers. Won't be recommending this place until something changes.
