Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We have family in Skibbereeen and were recommended this cafe on a recent visit from the UK. Lovely little place, friendly staff and the brunch was really good. Nice menu covering all the usual breakfast favourites and a couple of more unusual but very tasty...options. We'd definitely go back on our next visit to the area.More

Absolutely perfection in a breakfast. I’ve been on a week long tour of Ireland and eaten an Irish breakfast every day (don’t tell my doctor). This was not only the best, but the best by a long way. Great service, great restaurant, great value, lovely...friendly genuine manager. If I could give six stars I would.More

Had not visited this restaurant for some time due to COVID restrictions but great to see the place up and running and busy once again. Restaurant has been extended to include upstairs area which allows ample social distancing of customers. Food as always was really...tasty....we chose the haddock goujons served with either veg/ potatoes or chips/salad. We also had the chicken & ham again with veg/potatoes. Both were served piping hot and really felt like home cooked food. Service was excellent.More

The most delicious home cooked dishes like shepherds pie with beautiful side order of fresh vegetables (mashed carrot and parsnip, yummy) and treats like sandwich melts, salads, cajun chicken fillet (very homemade). Fabulous cakes and very nice staff.

Would imagine so as while Banks are closed it is not officially a Bank Holiday and as a result most shops/restaurants will be open.
