Rachel Doyle has created something truly special at Arboretum, in Leighlinbridge where Rachel’s Garden Cafe is a destination worth a visit. The cafe is a large, airy restaurant with several hot and cold food counters as well as a dessert table full of tempting treats. The colourful couches and smart wooden tables entice you to relax over a tasty meal. For sunny days there is also seating in the garden. At Rachel’s Irish is best but local is better and there is a real commitment to seasonality.
