Absolute gem in the middle of Sligo. The food was Delicious, well thought, and fresh. I would definitely recommend this place to foodies. Meggie was the kindest person and took the time to write down which dishes were gluten free. She also popped a candle on top of the desert for our birthday. The combination of perfect food and perfect hosting makes this place number one in Ireland.

I was there with my daughter for lunch.
Service was very good and friendly.
The ambience had nothing fancy, but it was clean and comfortable.
I had a burger and chips, and my daughter had eggs benictine with bacon.
Food was good enough but nothing special, something half way between 3 and 4 in the rating.
The price was a little high, although in line with the inflated post-covid19 prices of cafes and restaurants

This restaurant has great potential but is not quite there yet. I had breakfast lunch and dinner and can now share my overall experience.
Let’s start with the positive: the lunch options are great and taste amazing. Good quality ingredients, rich flavors and priced fairly. Dinner is very nice as well. Clever flavor combinations, very well cooked and fairly priced.
Now the negative: breakfast was quite disappointing. Very pricy compared to lunch and dinner, lacks flavor - actually quite blend. Eggs Benedict particularly disappointing as the sauce hollandaise had no flavor and the muffin (why not use a sourdough bread?) was soggy.
The staff is friendly but sometimes lacks sensitivity. When I booked a table for dinner I asked for a quiet table. When I got there they gave me the table next to the kitchen - disappointing. When then asking for another table they moved me.
The place is very cold, it seems like the heating is not used. When multiple guests keep their jacked on the owner/manager should react straight away. Heating should be included in the price.
Overall a nice place for lunch and dinner. They still have some homework to do and I’m hoping my feedback will help them to get to the level they have the potential for to reach. Only 3 stars unfortunately - one less for the missing heating, one less for the breakfast.

Fab place to eat! I had the most amazing breakfast this morning. Complements to the chef and all the friendly staff. This place is definitely on my list of favourite places to eat 😁 👍
M. D.
Foos is delicious, service was great. Def a great choice to set you up for the day. Social distance in place indoors and also the option to eat outdoors. We had the breakfast bap, good quality food and good size portion and the spanish breakfast with no shortage of chorizo.
M. S.
It can be pretty hard to find a brunch place that is open on a Sunday morning - Knox is one of those! Plus, they serve really great & homemade food, including the classics Eggs Benedict or pancakes. Some of their dishes have more of a Spanish twist - lots of flavour & really filling.
S. K.
Great staff and good food! Great spot for lunch. The restaurant is modern and rustic with great decor to match. The sweet potato chips are great with any meal!
A. C.
Really delicious food and very welcoming service. Family friendly too! The ham hock toasties were divine!
S. G. M. A.

B. S.
We ate here recently and it was great, the Ham Hock sandwich is the ultimate hangover buster!
T. S.

J. J.
Compact but still open modern rustic relaxed vibe restaurant.
Staff were friendly and courteous.
The spanish breakfast was rich and filling with chorizo sausage as an interesting twist.
Definitely a generous portion size was left happy and satisfied.

Sadly haven't been here since before covid but was always really nice to eat in.
K. R.
Lovely breakfast, eggs benedict to die for, would highly recommend. Lovely staff, very friendly.
A. B.
I had tried their French toast. Was worth it. A bit on the expensive side but worth a try if you like to have some fancy food.
E. D.
This is a fantastic place in the heart of Sligo. I've eaten in the restaurant several times but during lockdown it is a real treat to be able to have it at home. Although the menu is understandably limited everything is top class. The duck bao are the best I've ever had but everything is very tasty and packed with flavour.
L. M.
Excellent, very good service, it was pouring rain there was a goid canopy for outdoor seating. Food and service top class.
P. F.
Very good food fast plesent service.
T. O. D.
Seriously good tapas! The Cowboy Buttermilk Chicken was so good, but the Scallops with Black Pudding was out of this world tasty:) Have told all my friends heading up to Sligo this place is a must. Make sure to book though as they are so popular.
P. K. N.
Excellent breakfast!, I had Spanish Brekkie, magnificent!
B. P.
Ate lunch here because it was one of the few places open on Sunday. Food was surprisingly delicious. Decorations and lighting very unique and inviting.
B. S.
Delicious hamhock toastie! Always busy there and I can see why!
R. M.
Great vegetarian option. I’d definitely recommend (too hungry for pictures)
L. R.
Food is amazing! Try for brunch the Spanish breakfast was unreal
M. O.
Excellent food, lovely service and a great meal. We managed to get a last minute booking after our hotel let us down with a booking we had made in the hotel restaurant. It was definitely a happy accident that we came across this restaurant. I couldn't fault any of the tapas we got and welcoming staff made our night. Thank you!
S. M.
The avo toast is to die for. In this picture I already took a bite.... because of its deliciousness. The best brunch around.
M. P.
It’s my favourite place in Sligo !
I love go here for breakfast or lunch !!!!
s. j.
Food was fresh and yummy. Friendly staff and good ambience.
B. F.
Amazing food and extremely friendly helpful staff. A credit to Sligo.
O. M.
Truly amazing, a must visit if in Sligo town.
Food was all top drawer without being overpriced.
Last Sunday am brekkie comprised of sourdough toast and grilled bacon - superb !!
Lovely helpful staff.
Can't wait to try the tapas one evening
S. K.
Unreal little spot in the middle of Sligo. Great selection on menu, especially for brunch. The staff are really friendly, with fairly short waiting times for a table. I'd recommend the ham hock sandwich, it's insanely tasty! My partner got a chicken burger which came with Mediterranean style dressing which she said was delicious. One minor drawback would be the cost - it's a somewhat more chic place in Sligo, so they can probably justify charging a bit higher than other eateries.
N. O.
All the food is amazing. Big portions for tapas also. Great service. Pork belly Bao, Paella and buttermilk chicken tacos - all unbelievable.
B. D.
Absolutely gorgeous! Have been a few times but this time at lunch time. Really delicious vegetarian salad with optional chicken. A mixture of the most delightful tastes ...North African dominant....beautifully spiced ....hummus celeriac Apple sweet potato to name but a few. These people know their food.We ate outside starting with a coffee and later ordering lunch with no rush.! I'll be back again in daytime and I'll bring someone!

Nice food and good Kinnegar Limeburner beer
E. F.
Find myself keep going back to this place for their breakfast here is their Porridge and Egg Benedict
H. K.
We have collected our take-away from Knox today (Sunday, 28th of June) and have to say that all dishes were delicious!
We had the following dishes ordered:
Asian pork belly,
Baja fish tacos
and sides : Spiced sweet potatoes!
M. “. O.
Went for a meal last night with a group of friends (11 of us in total) staff were lovely and the food was absolutely delish! We nearly had everything on the menu. Highly recommend!
A. H.
Food was good, I wanted tapas but they were only serving it 6pm-10pm so I had a Chicken Burger. I'm use to tapas being on the lunch time menu in the UK. Otherwise I'd if 5 Stars them.
a. b.
I went on a Saturday evening with my son i had no booking but the waitress told me there would be a table free in 20 mins.
I had never being here before from start to finish it was so good the tapas were amazing i had crab salmon croquettes and baby patatoes which were all 10/10 i had 2 of the desserts which were also 10/10 for us.well worth a visit
N.
My favourite place for brunch in Sligo. Great coffee and lunch menu also. I haven't been in for evening service but I'm sure it's great too. Friendly staff who provide excellent service and the decor is fab.
J. E.
Nice tapas here, food was good but not great. We had a selection of 5 tapas and that was plenty to feed two people. Service was great and restaurant is really nice.
D. D.
Nice cafe , in the international hipster aesthetic - Edison bulbs, reclaimed furniture etc. We had the baked eggs and eggs Benedict , both were good , if a little too salty. The staff are lovely and attentive too. The coffee , however, was pretty awful , but I would go back .
P. L.
Cool place with great tapas!
Walked in off the street with no booking and they were able to accomodate us. Tapas menu was explained to us. I had the potatoe pieces- chicken wings- and fish cakes. Each was delicious. Nice wine list and craft bears
N. F.
Amazing food for such a reasonable price!! Staff were so nice and helpful. Will definitely be coming back.
J. P.

Lovely meal & nice waitresses

We just had a lovely lunch! Quiet on a Wednesday afternoon so we had the pace to ourselves. Th chefs are speaking exclusively to each other in Italian, so you know it's authentic. We shared a Margarita pizza and the Rigatoni special. The rigatoni came with caponata and pecorino cheese, which oddly didn't taste anything like pecorino as it was soft/bland. Otherwise the dish was good. The pizza looked delicious but lacked any clear flavor profile. The sauce was super bland without the slightest hint of any seasoning. The buffalo mozzarella cheese was great fresh and delicious as was the basil. So overall the pizza was good just not memorable. I would come back and try other dishes to be fair. The service was great and friendly. Come give them a try.
l. o.
Wonderful experience here last night. Food was absolutely delicious.... I've lived and eaten all over the world but Knox was on par with anywhere I've been. Service was excellent, wine was great and I highly recommend desert!! Was also so reasonably priced it was refreshing. Setting the bar for Sligo restaurants.
G. G.
Great food in Knox and great coffee too! Bang in the middle of town. They should extend the restaurant into next door. I'm sure they would have problem filling the extra tables. Their burger is a personal favourite.
D. S.
Wow..went at dinner time for the tapas, couldn't be happier. Had the pork belly, wings, potatoes, and croquettes. Everything was spectacular. A must visit in Sligo. Recommend making reservations. Very reasonably priced.
B. O.
Busy place, good food and atmosphere. Had the B.A.L.T which is a bacon, guacamole, lettuce and tomato sandwich and the Ham hock sandwich, both were really good. Service was good and staff pleasant
a. b.
Landed here on a Saturday night with my husband and two year old with no reservation. Not only did they seat us but they wined and dined us to no end. Even a meatballs dinner and milk for the toddler. Staff was lovely, food was class and wine omgggg...Would highly recommend 👏
S. H.
Loved it. Had the eggs Florentine. Full for the day! Couldn't take a picture of the meal. Had it eaten before I could take a pic!
F. L.
Really nice brunch. Nice coffee. Friendly staff and well presented food. Pouched eggs a little on the overcooked side but overall a nice spot for breakfast/brunch

Delicious Sunday Brunch! Swang through Sligo on route from Galway to Belfast and stopped in for a meal. Food was delicious and the space was lovely. Service was a wee bit slow, but the place was packed so understandable. great stop.
L. M.
Lovely food. It's very busy sometimes because it's so good especially at lunchtime. If you are going at night best to book a table. Well worth it.

Delicious food, small plates, perfect for sharing with a good bottle of wine. Waiter very helpful and good humoured! Great buzz to the place!
J. C.
The place was packed so we sat outside - which was OK until the smokers turned up.
The food was pretty ordinary and expensive for what we had.
It was difficult to get service and we had to go into the restaurant to attract the attention of the waiting staff to place orders and pay.
P. O. H.

C. S.
I really would like to have dinner there. But I think that this was the only one restaurant in that winter night was full. Only with reservation. The staff was very polite and the place looks great. One day, maybe I'll return to the city, but in this time, with a table booked.
P. M.
Had the Coconut Rice bowl for brunch and a lattë. Everything was gorgeous. Highly recommend.
