The chicken pesto carbonara seems a strange combination at first, but the taste is amazing. Recommended 😍😍

J. R.

Great place for having breakfast. The scrambled eggs were ok, but the salmon bagels were incredibly good. Really recommend to try that. Also the music was excellent 😁.

I visited there yesterday as well as today with my friend. We ordered omelette and full Irish breakfast. They’re food is the best in town and price is less too. We were served by the same staff member on both the days such a brilliant and friendly girl. She made sure we had everything and checked we were okay whereas they were fully packed on both the days. Everything was on time and yummy. Highly recommend them.

H. R.

The Belgian waffles with bacon and syrup that I tried there today was one of the best breakfasts I have ever had. A new combination for me, very delicious, high-quality and pretty. It was one of the many memorable experiences in a one-day trip to Athlone. Highly recommend the city, highly recommend the cafe, highly recommend their Belgian waffles with bacon and syrup.

T. M.

Food is tasty and each dish is hearty enough for one. The large inverted mushrooms on the breakfast platter didn't look very appetising, and the coffee could've been hotter. Service is great and courteous.

Such a lovely bistro. From the moment we went in we felt so relaxed and welcome. One staff member in particular saw me coming with the pram and immediately opened it to help me out (so rare) he took our orders and kept on top of the plates etc building up and was making sure everything was just perfect. I dont know many places that do that. I was pleasantly surprised in there by the food staff and the little playroom that my boy loved and it kept him entertained while we waited on our foods. I would definitely recommend this bistro.

A brilliant example of how Irish restaurants SHOULD be run. We were accommodated straight away. Asked for our Covid certs. Social distancing was adhered to. Food came fast (table of 5) and was excellent. They didn't hover! Staff were friendly & helpful, always pleasant. Highly recommend.

K. S.

Fantastic service and the food i ordered was very tasty. Ambience is very cosy for couples. Staff are very friendly and welcoming!! Would highly recommend this spot!!!

N. D.

Fantastic food and hospitality. Covid certs checked and seated quickly. Our food took a little while, but we didn't think it was too long, and still they arranged complimentary drinks etc due to wait. Very nice touch & staff were very helpful. Would definitely go back 😊

L. B.

We went for breakfast. It was great, our covid certs were checked. Plenty of space between tables. Staff were just great and the food was fresh and tasty. Hubby said the coffee was good too. Would recommend 👌

J. O. R.

Good place for a bite. Staff was friendly and food was well served. We only had Cesar salad that looked simple and was very tasty!

P.

Oh my goodness!! The lemon meringue cake is out off this world!! So much yummy delicious pastries to choose from. Highly recommended 🍱🥧☕👍

P.

Lovely food @ Craft Bistro , staff are very friendly and service was also good.

O. R.

Food amazing girls very attentive helpful and smile if the guy I think the owner or manager would just back off/step away from them when they are trying to serve people and not calling them while they with customers like ourselves etc. And way out of line the way he talks to them on floor In front of customers apart from that food ama5great servers

J. A.

Lovely staff can't do enough for you Great food. Definitely recommend. Thanks for a great experience.

P. B. E.

So close to five stars! I love this place, it's relaxing and welcoming, staff are friendly and the cakes are excellent. The only minus point is the decor: stuck in the 1990s. It would only take a few tweaks and Craft Bistro can really become a destination cafe. Here are my recommendations: replace the plastic plants with real ones, change the colour scheme to lighter and warmer colours, and hang art on the wall from local artists.

A. B.

love up market Bistro please staff nice food But for the life of me i cannot get why a lovely place like that users rubbish cutlery and servietts

P. C.

Best Bistro in town. Brought my grandchildren for breakfast today. One of them described his meal as "Mind blowing".

A. M.

Good food variety. Beautiful Indian spiced tea. Friendly service following all Covid protocols.

G. O.

Great full Irish. The kids loved their dinner and pancakes.

S. K.

Went here for breakfast on a Saturday morning which was just around the corner from our hotel. The staff were very friendly and attentive. The food was delicious! The nicest French toast I have ever had! Would highly recommend.

N. J.

By far the best breakfast place I have tired! It opens at 9.30 we came at 9.34 and it was already half full. They serve large portions of food and very filling. We had the full breakfast, pancakes and waffles! So much food but so delicious. The staff were so kind and friendly!

J. W.

Great Cafe! The staff are very friendly and attentive. My partner had the scramble egg with streaky bacon, wow it tasted wonderful. I had a decaf tea, 2 bags in the teapot made for a very tasty cuppa. We would definitely come here again.

L. O. B.

Fab place. We had breakfast there. Food was freshly cooked. Kids loved the pancakes I loved the porridge and my husband loved the full Irish. Coffee was great. Staff were so nice friendly and helpful. So sorry I hadn't cash on me to tip them. Next time x.

D. S.

Food was great staff efficient would go again

B. F.

I was disappointed with this restaurant. It seemed to have good reviews so we popped in for breakfast on our way back to our accommodation. Its decor is tired and dated. Very plain, almost like an office. My omelette looked like someone had vomited on my plate, it really didn't look great. My kids had waffles and they were way too desserty for breakfast waffles. They staff were great, the coffee huge, but the venue and food weren't good at all. We wouldn't recommended it, not ever go back.

D. M.

Lovely staff, filling tasty food, good price

A. O.

m. o.

Lovely cafe. Delicious food beautifully presented. Lovely helpful staff. Had a fabulous breakfast here that the whole family enjoyed. Highly recommend a visit.

L. M.

Probably the best service I've ever encountered. I visited on Sunday 29/09/19. Served by a young Irish gentleman and a lovely young foreign woman. Both so incredibly polite. The food was great. Try the peanut slice 😉

m. w.

Very fast and very friendly and lovely food and hot as well.

H. S.

Good coffee, nice cakes and brilliant team. A bit of decoration wouldn't hurt as this way I always have a sterile look.

O. G.

Welcoming, spotless and lovely food. I arrived at 5 but feel under no rush as staff were friendly. Ate a delicious turkey and brie sandwich on a Waterford blaa. Really, really good. Realky impressed especially with the cleanliness.

D. V.

Great breakfast (full Irish) and pancakes looked fantastic. Nice staff. Best place for breakfast we've found in Athlone so far.

B. F.

Been going regularly to this place for over two years and it has always been an amazing experience. The staff are friendly and kind and I’ve never been to a place that the service and food, no matter who is working or what dish you pick, is wonderful. Always my first place to recommend for good lunch food in Athlone!

J. Y.

The staff are so friendly and the full Irish breakfast was awesome. They even offered to run to the parking meter and pay the fee that forgot to pay. Such good people!

N. M.

Delicious lunch and extremely helpful staff. We had an emergency with a friend who had to be taken in an ambulance. Carmel in the cafe was so kind and considerate and contacted us later to see how our friend was. We will definitely be back!

U. M.

The staff are so friendly and helpful. Really went out of their way helping my fussy eater choose a lunch. Delicious food and coffee. We'll definitely be back.

Nice place. Delicious hot chocolate. We were waiting for a bit for our ordered food but the personal was great and very friendly. Maybe they need extra staff or shef to speed up a bit

My boyfriend put on pancakes and failed to finish them the amount that came 🥰 (Original) Pedazo de café, son enormes. Vale el precio que pagamos y el sándwich estaba buenísimo.
