Smack in the middle of Main Street this Christmas time you cannot ignore Valentines. Bathed in a cascade of lights it demands your attention. Inside is a nice stylish bar. Established in 1990 the sign says so the interior almost has a twenty five year pedigree but it is set in a much earlier time frame than that. It has matured nicely over the time. A large open space greets you with a sizeable angular bar at the end. The staff were chatty and service was fast. It is not the only well appointed hostelry in town but it is one of the best

I came here for coffee while waiting for someone in the shopping centre. Service was fast and friendly and the coffee was good. There was no issue with taking time over coffee either which was good. Nice place. Good for people watching.

I found this cafe on searching for somewhere to stop for Breakfast on the way to Tubbercurry.The address number is wrong as it is a one way system the, Cafe is on the left as you enter Dublin Street and there is parking outside.We both had a full Irish Breakfast, tea and toast for Euros 9.99 each and it was Excellent, a very large plate full of food nicely cooked.I would say if you are in the area go there you WILL enjoy it.Hello BGPSLancsThank you for your feedback, I am delighted that you enjoyed our breakfast. I will look into the address issue, It is 4 Dublin Street Longford so I will check why this is.kind regardsFergal

Have called here on few occasions for breakfast, unfourtnaly for me I have not yet had an opportunity to stay overnight. Their breakfast though,is very nice,served by friendly staff, the dining room is warm, bright, spacious, with lots of everything on offer. Outside there is ample parking only a few minutes out of town and on the main route to the west. Will definitely be making an effort to be around that way again.

Had a couple of great breakfasts here. Warning turn up hungry because there's a lot to munch on. Great value breakfast which fills you up for the day. If I had to make one comment it would be the onion and mushroom mix. Just not my thing but others may like it, just not for me, so next time ill leave it out.Well worth a visit which will be repeated time and time again. Hopefully will get a chance to sample the evening menu soon.

Can't believe I drove through Longford so many times and had not eaten here.I had the fafel with ciabatta, hummas and salad and my friend had the caesar salad that came with wedges. Both were delicious and we were both full.They make many different treats with their own chocolate but we were too full to try any other than their truffles. They were yummy.You can buy rocky roads and slabs of chocolate to take away with yoy.The food was so fresh and the place was so busy that people were waiting on seats. The two young waitresses were so friendly and helpful but the older lady seemed too stressed to engage in any pleasantries.I will definitely return to eat here again.Thank you for your lovely review hope to see you in Torc soon

Arriving just after 9am, and early for an appointment, I popped into Moments for a breakfast and coffee. Both were delicious and generous, and there was a welcome atmosphere, both for new visitors and the apparent regulars there. The decor was nice too, contributing to an overall excellent experience.

A group of 10 of us had lunch here today. A three course is 35 euro and includes tea or coffee. Bare in mind this is longford and not Dublin where you can get the equivalent in Rolys Bistro for 30 euro. The food in viewmount was ok, not terrific. The starters were about the best of the meal which isnt saying alot. I had the duck pate which was fine whilst most had the fish cakes which they described as more potato cake than fish cake. Both adequate nothing special. For main, the featherblade beef was the popular choice amongst the group. I'd had it here before and was disappointed. I tried it this time too and no change i.e. bland taste masked by rich gravy. Instead I had the turkey and ham. Nothing special and both the stuffing and turkey were bland, again masked by rich gravy. The cut of turkey was thin and tender but bland and i mean bland...The mash and veg were both up to standard though. Finally for dessert I went for the pear tart which was fine. Others had the brownie which was more like cake, was dry and was oddly served with a serving of sorbet which was too small a portion to counter the slab of dry chocolate cake (ahem) and it was sorbet which did nothing to add to the brownie... One of us opted for the lemon meringue which was inedible as the meringue tasted of egg yoke. One opted for the Christmas pudding which was looked and tasted more like bread and butter pudding then Christmas pudding. All in all, underwhelming to say the least for the price we payed. On a more positive note, service was good overall and the food came out quick ONCE they did take our orders. Finally I realise this isn't the most glowing of reviews and is not with malice. Viewmount is but a few nice restaurants in longford and the food is 80% of the way there, with a bit more thought and consideration from the chef needed. I wish the restaurant well and hope Sunday lunch gets the other 20% it needs to bring us back.
