Nice spot for a quick lunch. Nothing special but definitely good food and quick (by Irish standards) service.

The allergenes are very clearly indicated on the menus, which is wonderful for people with allergies. The service quality differs a lot of you have a young person (the one we saw didn't seem experienced and was not looking at the tables a lot) but the other ones were very friendly, efficient and nice. We had two sandwiches, one with salad and one with fries, and the soup. The soup and the veggies were delicious, obviously home made/prepared and it felt like a home cooked meal ! The sandwiches' portions were very generous and fries were nice and hot. We were also really pleased to have one vegan dessert, that was aussi yummy. The place is a bit noisy, but you have locals coming here as well, which is understandable because the quality/ price is a bargain ! We'll definitely come back next time we're in Kenmare. (The picture was taken half way through the meal, food was not presented that way in the beginning ! I just gulped the soup really fast because it was so delicious)
