    I'm going to be travelling down the N11 on Saturday morning, can anyone recommend a stop off somewhere for a nice breakfast along the way?
    Thanks.

    Jack White's or The Beehive. Both are on the the N11, your left hand side travelling South.

    If you want a thunderingly good fry up, the Good Times cafe in Arklow is wonderful.
    You'll need to starve yourself the night before though.

    Halpins in Wicklow town does a nice mini (fry) breakfast as does the Yew Tree in Ashford. They do a full breakfast too.

    this +1, great prices and only about 2 min drive off the motorway
    (first Arklow exit heading south, proceed into towards town and you'll past a school on your right. its about 100m past that on the right

    Was in there for Sunday lunch a year ago, what a kip. Hope he has done something with the place. Decor and food both awful.

    Is there anywhere in Bray at all? I used to go into the little cafe half way between Dunnes and the DART station but they're just firing everything into the microwave now, do any of the pubs do a decent breakfast because all the cafes are just reheated ****3 in my experience.

    There is still a cafe opposite Topaz on the Dublin road. They advertise they have the best breakfast in Bray. Also Molloys do breakfast, Sullivans, in fact to many to list :D

    There's Coffee & Treats in Bray between the Dunnes and the DART. Full Irish for €6 and I think it's alright.

    The Martello also do breakfast so you could watch the sun come up over the sea while you're breakfasting.

    The Romany Stone on the N11 itself serves a good breakfast too.

    You could always do the Biker Breakfast in Eddie Rockets in Arklow.

    Stopped off at the Good Times Cafe in Arklow for breakfast yesterday, on the recommendation of above posts. The place was spotless, the staff very friendly and the breakfast was excellent and very well priced. Will call here again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,750 ✭✭✭fleet_admiral


    The good times cafe is fantastic, I used to head up every sunday to nurse the hangover. The size of the breakfast and the price you pay for it is amazing


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 657 ✭✭✭FirstIn


    I enjoy breakfast out. It's replaced expensive dinners.

    I recommend coffee delights on the southern cross for the best value.
    I recommend ocean bar and grill in bray for the best compromise between value and quality.
