Establishments with the best fry-ups of your area

Hi all,

Recently I went into the Porterhouse (Parliment Street, Dublin city), and had a nice greasy fry, washed down by a decent cup of tae. Was driving, so no pintage.

Got me thinking: where do you go for that fry-up the morning after consuming many a pint?

When at home in Leixlip, Kildare, if feeling lazy after a night of darts and drink, I'd go down to the small cafe in Leixlip Shopping Mall (next to the Post Office). A decent cup of tea, but unfortunately the fry isn't always that greasy. And I find a greasy fry is needed the morning after a night of pints.

When in Galway city, it's usually Garvey's Select Bar. Being right next to the train/bus station is an added bonus, as the feed I get there is usually quite filling, and I am never in the mood for a pace any faster than a stagger to the station.

There is another place in Galways city that I once used to frequent, but forget the name of it. It would be on one of the streets leading off Eyre Square, on the left hand side, and the wood around the windows would be painted green. It'd do an excellent greasy fry, but I cannot find it

If in Tullamore town, Loughreys does a good fry. It was also the only place I could find open so early on a Sunday morn

So, where do you go for a good greasy fry-up? And does any other brother know of a place that they'd recommend nearby the Christchurch area in Dublin city?

Apologies for making ye all hungry, but this is what comes into my mind when sitting in work on a Monday morn

An Cuan Cistin in Edenderry have one of the best places to get a savage fry-up



Also, there is a place in Ballyfermot, Food for Thought which is ridiculously good food.

£4.75 tasty large fry up and a pint. can't beat it. only problem is the pints are so cheap you end up staying there all day and repeating again the next day. vicious circle.

Fraynes in mullingar, near the joe dolan statue, full all day brekkie for 7 euro, loads of tea and breads with it, always top quality with the loveliest staff, they are a bakery too.

Jays in celbridge, upstairs over the centra facing the bridge. Cooked fresh while you wait, nothing better than the 10 minutes smelling your fry up cook.

Del Rio's chipper opposite the Abbey Theatre do a fantastic fry up. Bacon, sausages, pudding, egg and chips. Large pot of strong tea and toast. Happy out.

Didn't even know that place existed! Any idea on how much it cost?

Sounds good. Any chance of a price tag?

9 yippos for that. There's other options too. All around the same price tag.

Just remembered; Mother Hubbards in Moyvalley, Co. Kildare. I think they do a (very) full "Irish Breakfast" all day for a tenner. Big pot of tea, lots of toast & brown bread. Went to it before playing golf (good few golf courses nearby) and was well content after my feed

My local. Suausages, rashers, eggs, mushrooms, beans, chunky fries and toast. All real pork.

And it is 235 steps from when I live.

It makes me sad that that's a highlight rather than a given.

Moloughneys in Clontarf has amazing rashers. I haven't had a fry there but if the rashers are anything to go by it's good.

How long have you owned a pedometer? And why do you possess such an abomination?

Is that a device for counting pedophiles? I don't have one.
