J. T.
Loved this little place. We ordered Cajuan chicken wrap, the Pantry slaw salad and a Beef and Guinness pie. The menu is extensive and there is something for everyone. Highly recommended. The food was excellent
T. Z.
Loved the location, the ambience, the live music, the garden, and the staff! Our waitress was lovely. Really magical and beautiful! 💕
The salad unfortunately wasn't well seasoned and the dressing was tasteless. The lemonade was very sweet and didn't taste like lemon. Mostly water and sugar.
The sandwich had a hint of goat cheese but not enough to satisfy a craving.
It'd be great if they'd serve food in proper plates in future. Currently, it's not so environmentally friendly. ☹️

Popped in for lunch with my girlfriend as we were in the area and looking for a spot to eat. Very pleasantly surprised to find such a lovely cafe in the middle of the town, and is definitely worth turning off the M7 if looking for lunch on your road trip
We opted to sit outside as the weather was nice. The outdoor area is heated and very comfortable and the garden area is a lovely setting. The staff were very accommodating, warm and friendly.
We both ordered ciabatta sandwiches and tea/coffee. The sandwich itself was delicious, very fresh bread and lovely flavour in the filling, one of the nicest sandwiches I've had. And the coffee was also up there. We both finished with chocolate biscuit cake which was delicious too. All in all the price was very reasonable and the food was superb.
We will 100% be back the next time we are passing through.
S. H.
Wonderful and welcoming staff. The food was absolutely delicious (I had turkey, brie, and stuffing sandwich). My husband had the quiche and said it was more like a pot pie (a good thing). My daughter went after the green bean salad over the carrot cake. The coffee was nutty and properly done. Thankful for a great experience here in Ireland. Also. Carrot cake-yes.
R. J.
So helpful and friendly. In for lunch, and staff were happy to change around items on the menu without any issues. Really great atmosphere and nice 3fe coffee as well.

Delish food and desserts. I loved my wrap (cajun chicken) and the desserts (almond pear tart and cheesecake) we ordered 💜 Lovely and creative decoration in the garden area, I kept taking pictures.

Delicious food. Yummy cake. Gorgeous garden. Friendly staff. Our daughter sat and played on the grass. Lovely. We'll be back.

Great selection of sandwiches and the soup is quality. Nice selection of homemade pastries which is just a perfect Friday lunch or weekend treat :). Coffee is nice and fresh in the morning. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who hasn’t been yet or anyone passing through portlaoise. Staff are very pleasant and friendly as well as the owners. Can’t wait to be able to dine inside as I will be back when that is in place. Very impressed with the takeaway service and cafe overall.
M. P.

We visited this cafe on way from a few days in Abbeyleix, we were greeted by a lovely girl and brought us out to the seating area, it was raining so she got us a seat with covering and heaters, the staff were all happy and smiling even with masks on. We ordered coffee and 2 cakes which were delish 😋, there was alot of choice on the menu unfortunately we had only had breakfast but we will return for lunch again. Lovely cafe, lovely garden seating and brilliant staff
K. M.
We love visiting here on a Saturday. Excellent coffee, top class food and very friendly staff. Today we visited the new walled garden and were charmed: it's a beautiful addition and a great open air space to enjoy lunch or coffee (some pics added). The Pantry is definitely worth a visit.
D. H.
Oh my goodness what a gem of a shop..a little something for everyone..what a lovely helpful lady working there..Will be back before Christmas to get a few more bits!!
S. K.
A really lovely location. The outdoor dining area is very well spaced out. Highly organised and very efficient staff. Unfortunately I found the food and coffee to be mediocre, and a little overpriced. The waitress we had was super friendly, very efficient and attentive.
D. W.
Absolutely fantastic service 5 star food . The little garden just sets the atmosphere for relaxing with a coffee.
C. F.
Fabulous. Breakfast was delicious and staff gave lovely suggestions of what to change on my dish as I am Low Carb. Beautiful outdoor walled garden. I felt like I was in the Mediterranean. Will definitely be back 🥰
T.
Extremely polite and very friendly on taking my order, the food it self tastes amazing and would definitely recommend for lunch.
A. R.
Great selection, lovely food and drinks, friendly staff, and the garden's beautiful.
Perfect for a casual lunch.

Ideal stop off point if driving between Dublin and Cork. Had a succulent Quiche Lorraine and boy did Lorraine do the job. A lot of the options such quiche, frittata or pie come with a choice of two salad dishes. I would recommend the chickpea, goat's cheese and mint or the homemade crunchy red lettuce coleslaw. This came to around €7 and was definitely worth it.
There's an idyllic wee garden out the back which was a perfect sun trap.
D. M.
great selection of sandwiches and soup is fab very reasonable priced and very wide selection of food and health options to choose from coffee is also very nice highly recommend if visiting portlaoise. plenty of parking close by on the top sqaure.
B. M.
Lovely food,very friendly staff & walled garden seating area is so beautiful, the homemade lemonade is definitely worth a try
J. S.
I came in hungry, drooling for eggs like those advertised, but they had none. Sooo disappointed BUT THEN when I asked for gluten free things, they steered me to a nut loaf served with TWO salads and incredibly delicious dressing!!! Heaven! Oh boy will I be coming back HERE!! Bravo, Pantry Cafe!
❤❤❤❤❤❤😋😋😋😋😋☺

Had coffee and a apple and berry crumble today super coffee and im a major coffee fanatic desert was yum staff r so pleasant decor just quaint only problem for crumble and two coffees was €10 bit sharp in my opinion but i let it go as I enjoyed it as a treat better pricing and I wud be back every other day x
S. B.
We had a lovely visit again to The Pantry Cafe and this time it was even better in the Walled Gardens with the added bonus of live music while we enjoyed our tasty food that included a "to die for" Piña Colada cheesecake.
This is lovely place that we only discovered recently despite living in Portlaoise for years -at least Covid did that for us !! The owners and staff are very friendly and helpful and food is quality.
Thanks again for a great visit.

Beautiful food and superb place to eat right in the centre of Portlaoise.
S. L.
Beautiful walled garden for outdoor dining during the day. Great place for a light lunch cakes or coffee.
A. D.
My friend and I came here for a late Christmas lunch.....well worth the wait. Not a carvery here, but delicious homecooked meats - ham and chicken - and a great range of bespoke ciabattas and wraps, too. I'm sure there was soup, but I didn't have that, although, if I had, I'm sure it would have been delicious also. For a sweet treat, I had the pear and almond individual tart.....warmed and served with coulis and cream. I know I'm overusing the word, but, delicious..... very courteous staff. You order and pay and the food is brought to your table. It's a very cosy place, with tables placed very well in the available space. The decor is warm and welcoming, with pretty lights and lovely cushions dotted around. All in all, a very pleasant experience which I will soon repeat, even if just for that tart......bliss.....
M. S.
Gorgeous little gem in the middle of Portlaoise. The garden is stunning! The earl grey tea is beautiful. Lovely selection of salads and the vegetable soup was beautiful and allergen free (dairy etc) the mixed berry crumble was nice but just personally I would have liked there to be a little more fruit in it .. overall though a fantastic spot and friendly helpful staff
P. V.
Amazing food, great staff...
J. M.
Excellent cafenot far from Portlaoise town centre excellent selection of soup wraps and cakes friendly staff coping extremely well in testing times with tables cleared and sanitized as soon as people leave so they are safe to use for the next customer. All cafes should be like this.

Food was so nice. Stopped off for a quick lunch. Got a toasted sandwich,and the most divine coffee. It was the nicest I've had in a long time. Do definitely try the teaser chocolate cake. Too good to resist. Took the advice of the girl behind the counter and got it heated. Words cannot describe how good it was!
D. O. S.
Beautiful garden, delicious food and cakes. Super staff, friendly and nice. Would Highly recommend. My little fellow still telling stories as to how nice the staff were.
C. G.
Cannot recommend The Pantry enough. The staff, the setting, the food - everything was just perfect. The walled garden is just such a lovely surprise, so quirky and cool. And to all of the staff who rushed to my little girl's attention when she got stung by a wasp, she's still talking about you guys. Thank you so much!
R. N.
Friendly staff, good food and satisfactory prices. We went in a few minutes after they opened and got a super service. By the time we left, the cafe was only about 25% full. Things seem to move slowly in Portlaoise.
Anyway, all four in our group enjoyed their food. Two of us ordered bakewell tarts and found them a bit on the dry side. The French toast was probably the best, but they should reduce the amount of syrup they drizzle over it.
R. C.
Recently popped in for a take away coffee and was pleasantly surprised to find that they stock a couple of plant based milks. Unfortunately, the oat and rice milk combination suggested ended up foul tasting and I suspected this was due to one of the milks being open and in use for too long. Could be completely wrong though..
Issue was handled very well by the lady at the main till who was more than happy to provide a fresh replacement black coffee. Seems like a nice place to eat in - from what I spotted the selection seemed huge!
E. C.
Awesome, lovely breakfast
C. K.
Beautiful cafe, lunch is always amazing, and the coffee and desserts are just delicious. Their new outdoor seating area is fabulous too, very relaxing atmosphere! Can't forget the service also, the whole place is just great.
Z. C.
Every small town in Ireland should be so lucky to have a café like this! Twee, cosy setting with a fabulous selection of cakes and salads - as well as a breakfast and lunch menu. Everything was well labeled, with options for vegans/vegetarians. The french toast is worth travelling for alone! Big generous pots of tea and wonderful service. Far nicer than many cafes I've dined in Dublin. The only slight let down would be the bathrooms, they're very small - but clean. I love that the owner has his wedding cards framed on the walls, such a nice personal touch.
D. F. I.
Wow so friendly and the food is yummy. Despite the difficult situation we are all in its places like this that keep us going.

Sisters get-together. This is on the main street of Portlaoise. We had Lunch and later went back for Tea and Cake. Top class food with lovely staff and plenty to choose from. This is really worth a visit and the price was very reasonable.
J. C.
Lovely menu, great service and particularly delicious selection of cakes and deserts! Well worth dropping in!
B. G.
The staff are extremely friendly and very clean cafe, but if you're on a budget, forget it. The prices are staggering, and that's for takeaway. Certainly glad I didn't eat in
