I was in Wexford for a day and came across this lovely café by coincidence - and I'm glad I did! Located at the waterfront, it's easily accessible and offers a lot of space to sit and enjoy your coffee and food, be it indoors or on the terrace.

I thoroughly enjoyed the flat white (there's a reason the café is on the top 100 coffeeshops of Ireland list!) and the granola bowl was a piece of art! I don't think I've ever seen one presented this way, and it was stunning. And tasty too, those berries were incredible.

Moreover, there are pastries to choose from which I will definitely do next time I'm in the area. What was also great was the relaxed atmosphere: You can hang out, chat with friends, get some work done, read a few pages, and the staff is super friendly and accommodating. There's even a small play area for children! This feels like a true community hub and I loved every minute of my stay!

Response from the owner
