What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
No13 The Factory is celebrated for its vibrant atmosphere, friendly service, and a menu filled with healthy, Instagram-worthy dishes and exceptional coffee. While many praise the quality and taste of items like smashed avocado toast and scones, some reviews mention inconsistent service experiences and disappointment with specific dishes or portion sizes for the price.
"One of the more popular places in the area. Number 13 The Factory is a very busy place and for large work groups it is a definite must to book ahead.
The tasty menu has healthy and savoury to select from and the restaurant which has a modern kitchen-esque feel to it, is an airy and brightly lit space."

"Fantastic cafe. There’s always a bustle here. The staff are welcoming, friendly and efficient.
I used the hatch to get a take away coffee: The cappuccino coffee is delicious. It’s well located to then go for a walk around UL. I would definitely recommend coming here."
Aoife Wilson
"Visited this café on a Monday morning around 10:30 with a friend, and it was already very busy. By the time we left, there was a line outside, so it’s clearly a popular spot! Service was quick and efficient, but it didn’t feel like a place where you could sit and chat for long.
I ordered the French toast, which was good—one slice served with crispy streaky bacon, a small portion of fruit, and syrup on the side.
Overall, a great spot if you’re looking for a quick and tasty bite, but maybe not the best for a leisurely catch-up. I'll be back to try lunch."

Best Coffee Shops and Cafes in Nenagh
I present to you Carlton Coffee, a centrally located shop splashed in a bright orange color that practically dares you to not come in and take a look around. A smaller place, there’s lots of bar seating up against the tall windows to do some prime people watching, especially on busy Saturdays when the streets are filled with families all going to the milk market. What I especially liked about the place was how friendly the baristas were, and that there was some really good patio seating that Anna and I took advantage of after picking up our drinks.
