    I was there last weekend and the food was fine, nothing spectacular but nothing wrong with it.

    The cold plates were the only thing I could fault them for.

    Anyone been to Le Frene?
    This is where Buon Giorno, New Street and Sous le Vent traded from in the past.

    A mate was there and said they have a tidy waitress.

    He may have mentioned the food but I sort of lost him after the first bit.

    :D

    As you are probably aware La Freine is now gone the bridge cafe is the new place there. Its run by Louise that runs the RUnner Bean down in Stakelums. I've eaten there twice and and the food is great, they are only open til six so do more of a breakfast/lunch time trade but anytime i've passed it there always seems to be someone in there. I would highly recommend it

    In the past 20 years that place was over 40 different restaurants. I can remember it was a newsagent back in 1992/3 it must hold the world record as every few months it has a new name and owner

    That could all change now with this new tidy waitress in place.

    Had a wrap in Naomi's there a few weeks ago at Westgate. You'd go far to get nicer and very reasonable too.

    I'd find it hard to recommend there :eek:

    Although the food is nice the portions are tiny and the service is so slow it's unvbelievable.

    Mitchel House would be a far better bet .... unless the poster wants to spend Sunday evening and most of Sunday night there and head home via the Mona

    Have to agree with this. We spent over an hour waiting for the starter. Over priced too. But there's always the entertainment in the form of the kitchen staff and chef and head waiter having lots of very heated words with each other.
    Id have to recommend Star of India, lovely food and staff.

    There are 2 Indiana in Thurles...Shimla and Star of India. I personally much prefer the Star of India. Both are within walking distance from the town square.
    Enjoy your stay.:-)

    I know it's off topic, but I stayed there last February. 'Twas an experience! I'd take the advice given about restaurants given already. It's some hole.
