The Bakery was one of my favourite spots to go to in Derrybeg while working in the area for the past 3 months. Beautiful, reasonably-priced food, excellent coffee, and the sheer variety of high-quality baked goods kept myself and my co-workers going! Highly recommend the brownies, they're good for the soul.

A great stop for a lite bite or sweet treat! I had to visit here a few times in one week just to get a taste of the different things on offer, definitely be prepared to be tempted! Their Rocky Road & Carrot cake are top class, great with a cuppa tae!
