What an incredible find! Despite our tardiness, Connor graciously seated us at the Rowan Tree. We were actually relieved that we couldn't secure reservations at our initial choices, as the food here surpassed our expectations. The pasta dishes were outstanding, with one featuring a subtle hint of spice alongside tender sirloin steak, and the other showcasing a delectable combination of duck and cheese-filled tortellini, topped with a generous amount of shaved Parmesan. For dessert, we indulged in a scrumptious banoffee pie paired with a cafe con leche. The atmosphere was enhanced by beautiful original paintings and ample space between tables. I am already looking forward to returning to this gem in Ennis, and will make it a point to dine here every night if given the chance. Thank you, Conor, for a memorable dining experience!

Quite possibly one of the best hostels I have even been in, and one of the nicest places to eat in Ennis. They recently remodeled the entire place and it is simply amazing. The café has a very good menu with something for everyone. Prices are not bad at all, and they also have high chairs so if you have a small child, like I do, you are in luck. During the summer you can't beat sitting outside quite literally right next to the river having a nice lunch with a few pints.

Our first trip was while on holiday two years ago from USA. We enjoyed our food so much we ensured a return visit while on holiday again. Rowen tree has a great gluten free menu and offers gf pasta. We ordered the wild mushroom with chicken penne. It was divine. Worth our repeat trip. My husband had the special: lamb with roasted peppers and potatoes. One of the best he has had. Prices are reasonable. Wine and beer selection is great. Came out with a Guinness and a lovely house red wine. If we come back to ennis for holiday we will surely return.

The best thing about this place was sitting outside along the river. Cappuccino was ok. Service was ok as well.

This charming restaurant is located next to the adorable hostel in a small town in Ireland. The food is delightful and has a Mediterranean influence. Don't miss out on the amazing desserts!
