Relaxed atmosphere. Black pepper and chive sausage bap with salad leave. It was well prepared and very tasty

e. h.

Food was Devine, service excellent and attentive. Great selection of vegetarian and wholemeal food. Little shop for the goods that you can purchase. A lot of food sourced locally. Very highly recommend it.

C. O.

Great stop for a coffee and wonderful homemade muffins with whipped cream on the side. Nice service too.

K. L.

My sister and I took a trip to Ireland in mid-August. We just so happened to stumble upon this amazing place! The food was so fresh and delicious! The staff was very delightful and kind. Hands down the best food we had on our entire trip!

c. b.

Their brunch was a good as any place I frequent in notting hill in london. Great toasted sourdough with avocado topped with nuts and chilli. Also had a dark chocolate cake with dates. Visited with my husband and son. The service was as good as the food. Keep up the good work bastion kitchen!

F. C.

Great menu and decor... friendly staff, delicious food

T. T.

Had a great couple cups of coffee here and a delicious breakfast. My wife loved the avocado toast. The young woman working was nice and we enjoyed chatting with here. Food was healthy, delicious, and filling. Great way to start off the day!

Y. D.

Just wow. This is it. The welcoming morning coffee shop around the corner, where you want to spend every morning. Too bad i live in the wrong country. The food is delicious, fresh made, served just right. Staff is very friendly, attentive and skilled. Prices are justified by the quality of the food, drinks and the low carbon food print. Children seem to be no problem, even if they have a bad day and need to be brought outside for a moment. Alltogether a great coffeeshop!

R. M.

A great choice of sandwiches and hot food. I had the turkey and stuffing sandwich, my dad had the daily special soup and said it was the best soup he's ever had! Everyone in our family group of seven thought this place was great. It gets very busy at peak times so be prepared to wait or get a take away. Highly recommended!

L. J.

Absolutely 10 out of 10! Very friendly, great food and the flat white is epic! Keep up the good work!

m. m. m.

Nicest vegeterian wrap i have ever tasted,.👌

M. M.

The coffee is the best in town. The two staff members are not very friendly and if anything they are cold towards customers. Would be a great little place if the staff could simple smile and maybe give behind the counter a good clean.

Terrific little cafe serving imaginative, healthy and delicious treats. Leak, pea and coconut soup is really amazing. Coffee cake is well judged: it's moist, delicious and full of real coffee flavour, with none of the usual sickening sugar saturation. Pita breads with cheese and chicken and fresh salad are outstanding. Coffee is good too. Interior design is quirky, colourful and really creative- a joy for cafe goers tired of the timid homogeneity of Starbucks et al. It's slightly cramped, though, and when it's busy, service speeds drop. But patience is rewarded.

C. S.

Just had a wonderful lunch here on our stopover in Athlone from the east to west :) The pitas and butternut squash soup were perfect and the coffee is amazing and local! If you are stopping in Athlone definitely stop here for lunch. (They have several veggie and vegan options as well!)

l. b.

We stumbled across this little gem of a cafe with excellent vegan options. The falafel was spot on and the food had lovely flavour. Great to see some of these kind of cafés popping up in the Midlands.

B. P.

Very good freshly prepared food. V friendly and helpful. Good choice of food and desserts. Mango cheesecake was excellent and was vegan. I'm not vegan but I will return for the cheesecake.

B. M.

Tasty natural food. Simply delicious.

C. K.

Best food and cake in town! And the coffee's not half bad either. They'll also happily do a takeaway and make up a special sandwich or pitta. Lovely atmosphere!

One of my fave places to have lunch. Staff and owners are always a pleasure to chat to, and ao helpful. Always have amazing VEGAN options.

R. M. C.

Fantastic cafe, great veggie options, coffee, home baked delicious things, well priced, staff lovely, couldn't fault it, the soup was exceptionally tasty! We're in Athlone for the weekend and it was so nice yesterday thinking of going back today, highly recommend going out of your way to give this place a visit!

J. W.

Small and lovely cafe. Well decorated. Gluten free brownie- delicious. Great coffee but could be a little bit warmer.

M. W.

Fab staff. Super friendly. Great WiFi. Yummy cakes! Coffee is dark roast if you care about that sort of thing. Recommended.

E. G.

Homemade food was excellent. Vegan options available. Staff were welcoming and extremely nice. Although the weather was gloomy, the place was well heated and felt homey. Keep it up guys!

Good coffee and snacks, lovely staff

T. N.

Delicious and healthy lunch!

D. W. E.

Excellent food. Excellent service. Other restaurants should take a look at this food and copy it. Deserts are delicious! Had gluten free bread too which a so called 'fancier' restaurant down the road lacked!

B. F.

Fantastic food, fresh and healthy. Gorgeous menu, with thought and originality. I had breakfast and lunch, both were delicious. The staff are so friendly and always full of chat. Definitely coming back.

J. S.

Great place for the morning coffee and quick bite

F. M. G.

Very tasty food. However, more care needs to be taken with dishes for coeliac diners...gluten free food kept alongside other foods. They need to be kept apart or at least well covered.

P. P.

Nice interesting little place. Interesting food. Take out and sit in. Friendly staff.

M. K.

Lovely food friendly staff

We were headed to Kin Khao right around the corner (Thai), but it wasn't open yet so we stopped here for lunch instead on our travels to Galway a few weeks ago. It seemed very busy, so we took that as a good sign. Staff was lovely, but the cafe seating was very cramped. We all ordered coffee and the special "hot plate" of the day, which was a Vegetable Coconut Curry with Basmati Rice. The coffee was quite good, but the curry was sorely lacking. No flavor, couldn't taste the coconut, and it really felt like we were just eating warm vegetables in curry infused water. To be fair, American palates are different, plus the cafe seemed very health-conscious, but we were still expecting a slightly more savory and flavorful curry,. One of us re-ordered and got a pita sandwich, which she liked better, and they comped her curry for her (like I said, the staff was really friendly). I ate mine, because I felt bad, but next time I travel through Athlone, I'll probably skip this spot.

A. S.

(Translated) A small, cozy place, with very nice service, where you can find something delicious as a vegetarian or vegan. I had the soup of the day and the vegetarian pita and loved it. The latte and the brownie for dessert were also delicious. Highly recommended! Keep it up!!!
