Reviews of Tea and Garden Rooms

A must go to in Ballyvaughan. The food was delicious as were the fresh cakes. My mum went as far to say that the tomato soup was the best she'd ever had, and I'm sure she's had plenty to sample too. The fresh bread paired with it really struck home. I should say it wasn't cheap, but we left completely satisfied and for me, that's worth the money for fresh, homemade food. The staff were also nice, and although we sat indoors, the outdoor area is lovely too. The bathrooms were also very well looked after too. Great for a family meal after a lovely drive or walk.

Really good food, we sat in the garden for our lunch Inside is lovely too. The bathrooms were spotlessly clean. We had to wait outside for 15 minutes for our table but there is a lovely area where you can sit. The staff were really friendly. It is a really popular place. We loved it.

D. O.

A really nice cafe inside and out. Good menu, food was delicious. Homemade lemonade was full of flavour and the coffee was nice too, overall a good experience but portion sizes are very small.

j. K.

Absolutely fantastic, really glad we found this very fine establishment.

R. W.

Gorgeous food and a magical place to settle for a break. The garden at the back is very special and the location brings a sense of wildness and nostalgia to its doorstep. The tea was tasty yet beautifully subtle, and the staff attentive and polite. Highly recommended.

M. K.

Great setting. The garden is beautiful and the wildflowers have an amazing aroma.the food was excellent. The tarts ,cakes were very tasty. There were GF options available too

M. A.

Had delicious beef stroganoff for lunch, it was melt in the mouth and bursting with flavour. Tea (tea leaves not bags) and cake afterwards which left us licking our lips. We were seated in a lovely conservatory and enjoyed identifying the plants. Great service, friendly, helpful staff.

G. H.

We had a beautiful lunch here. We both opted for the toastie ham and cheese with mustard. It did have a more elegant name I cant recall. Ham was delicious really fresh and thick not the packaged wafer stuff. We had the pink lemonade had a touch of grapefruit through it was good. Coffee was well made. Its a really nice setting and the cakes looked delicious but we were too full... Afternoon teas would be great here so you get the combo. The setting is beautiful. It has a cutsie cottage feel. It warm and inviting. Great deffo be back next time we are in Clare.

P. H.

Lovely spot. Very nice outdoor dining. Service very slow. While open sandwich was tasty it was massively overpriced at €9.50 with very little chicken and effectively no salad or garnish.

S. K.

Really nice food in general but fabulous selection of cakes.. Lovely indoor and outdoor dining experience. Friendly staff. Great atmosphere well worth a visit

S. P.

Absolutely gorgeous place!! Like a little scene from a fairytale! Food was lovely as well, even if a bit pricey. Outside the Tea Rooms there are lovely walks. I highly recommend this place.

A. G.

Really great place to hang out on a sunny day. The food is awesome and the staff is so friendly. Desserts are to die for and you can tell that they are fresh. Best desserts ever!!

B. D.

Lovely cakes and coffee, lovely staff, eye watering prices. 4 cakes and 4 drinks was 40 euro! Shame as it is a lovely spot.

S. D.

Gardens are absolutely beautiful. There is so much to see in the front and the back. The food was great. Only 4 stars because of the prices

J. C.

Lovely place for lunch. Or just tea and cake. Absolutely delicious homemade cakes

D. O. G.

Great food and friendly staff.

M. B.

Fantastic place to stop for lunch or for just a cup of tea and the best cakes you'll ever taste, the staff are excellent and the setting is amazing.

A. W.

Delicious carrot cake, cappuccino to die for, great espresso, friendly staff and a lovely conservatory looking out onto the back garden. An idyllic setting.

M. S.

So glad we ate here rather than a number of other locations visited today. The soup, mushroom and mixed pepper, not a blend I'd have thought of but truly tasty. The scone and cakes (coffee and walnut/carrot) were light, airy and very edible. Good coffee as well. Lovely garden to sit in briefly and "smell" if not the roses, the other flowers and plants.

L. G.

Excellent. Decor and food equally delicious. Highly recommend this cafe.

T. O.

Great afternoon tea and beautiful views outside. Very welcoming

M. H.

We stopped here after a suggestion from our B&B the previous night. What a fantastic recommendation! The food and atmosphere were excellent, and I know I'll remember that table of baked goods for a very long time.

V. K.

Gorgeous location right on Balluvaughan pier. Country kitchen feel with delicious, hearty, home made food. Come hungry and leave room for cake.

A. r.

A family place. Lots of children. Not a romantic restaurant. Good food. Nice waitresses.

P. J.

We first visited this gem of a tea room whilst touring the west coast -several years ago. It was a very wet and blustery day and I recall the comfort and warmth of the welcome - the food was stunning! How lovely then to return on a gloriously sunny afternoon and to see the colourful garden in full splendour. The catering and service remain top notch - absolutely perfect!

M. K.

We had a delecious lunch in this beautiful place . The weather was nice so we had a chance to sit outside in the garden ! The food was very good and tasty 😋 👌 Well recommended!

T. D.

In 2001 we found it for the first time, we returned in the years (also when it was closed). It is simply fascinating place, inside for food and cakes and outside for garden and atmosphere. To stop bere is to find beauty, simplicity and taste.

Elegance tea room ambience. €3 generous and hot chocolate and coffee. Superb cake selections €6. Main medals also looked delicious.

E. A.

Did enter first to ask if I can use the toilet ... ended up buying 4-5 cake ... this place is magic !

It's hard to travel around the Burren without fitting in a visit to the Tea Rooms. Both the meals and deserts are fantastic! Sitting in the conservatory lets you convince yourself that there is a summer in Ireland!

R. S.

Great choose of cakes which are available to customers to examine before buy. Great idea! And tastes really, really good. Nice garden in backyard.

(Translated) We tasted 2 famous very light cakes (blueberry meringue pie and a sort of cinnamon and walnut + hazelnut sponge cake) with a very fragrant tea and a capuchino with real milk! The place is amazing with a very cute flower garden with Burren stones as tables and a very pleasant veranda with garden furniture and flowers everywhere. If you arrive before noon you will only be served tea, coffee and cakes ... only after that you can have lunch. Please note that places are expensive, it is a very popular place. A bit expensive however 17 € (Original) Nous avons dégusté 2 fameux gâteaux très légers (tarte meringuée aux myrtilles et une sorte de génoise à la canelle et aux noix +noisettes) avec un thé très parfumé et un capuchino avec du vrai lait ! Le lieu est étonnant avec un très mignon jardin fleuri avec des pierres de Burren comme tables et une véranda très agréable avec du mobilier de jardin et des fleurs partout. Si vous arrivez avant midi on ne vous servira que thé,café et gâteaux... c'est seulement après que vous pourrez déjeuner. Attention les places sont chères c'est un lieu très prisé. Un peu cher toutefois 17€

(Translated) We thought about going in there, as it is close to the road and is very much geared towards tourism. After thinking about it, we went in to form our own opinion. Tea was okay in terms of price and taste. Cake was very expensive and a little small. The homemade lemonade tasted good and was very nicely presented. Toilets were very clean and the staff was nice. (Original) Haben uns überlegt dort reinzugehen, da es dicht an der Straße liegt und sehr auf Tourismus gepolt ist. Nach überlegen sind wir reingegangen um uns eine eigene Meinung zu bilden. Tee war preislich und geschmacklich in Ordnung. Kuchen war sehr teuer und etwas klein. Die selbstgemachte Limonade war geschmacklich gut und sehr schön angerichtet. Toiletten waren sehr sauber und das Personal war nett.

C. V.

(Translated) The garden is really beautiful with its flower beds well arranged that give the place a poetic lightness and dishes are good and hearty and tasty cakes, all homemade. They deserve our visit (Original) Le jardin est vraiment beau avec ses massifs de fleurs bien agencés qui donnent au lieu une légèreté poétique et les plats sont bons et copieux et les gâteaux appétissants, le tout fait maison. Ils méritent notre visite

(Translated) A really cute cafe right on the pier. Beautiful gardens in front and behind the house and delicious cakes. Painful prices, however.
