Our restaurant is a casual place in which to get honest food in a warm and welcoming setting. Lunch is served from 12:30 every day Tuesday - Sunday. From 10:30am onwards our traditional Irish scones are fresh out of the oven - along with our fresh tarts and other diet crushing desserts. We have a strong association with the local farming community and are committed to local suppliers for meat, dairy, fruit, vegetable and other produce. All are welcome & we are wheelchair accessible. Looking forward to welcoming you and yours to The Forge.

We called in after a visit to nearby Altamont Gardens. We were warmly greeted and invited to chose our prefered seats.
We shared a starter of deep fried mushrooms, followed by two sandwiches. I chose double cheese toastie, my wife had roast beef ciabbata. Both were very well presented and very nice indeed.
For dessert, my wife had home made rice pudding, I opted for warm crumble. Both were delicious.
The staff were really friendly and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

Mimosa Wine & Tapas Bar

Reviewed By Sophie B

Dined in this restaurant last night and it was my first time to have tapas so wasn’t quite sure what to expect. When we arrived the place was extremely busy so we were taken to a separate bar area to wait on our table, we waited for over an hour but the atmosphere was lovely so we didn’t find the time. There is a great variety of dishes available from seafood to meat to vegetarian options. I ordered 3 tapas. The dishes were quite small as a tapas would be but were full of flavour. I think tapas is a selective choice, the food was nice but overall not as filling as a single meal would be elsewhere, I suppose it depends on the person and what you are into

I have been to Lennons for both lunch and dinner, and the food here - particularly their dinner menu - is incredible. The decor is lovely by day, incredibly romantic by night and the service is top notch. Also, Lennons have the reputation of serving the best coffee in Carlow and it's well deserved! I've never had a bad experience here and a trip to Lennons is a treat I love to look forward to. A fantastic restaurant.

I was among a group of 60 people , approx, here recently for a function.
I only heard very good reports from those around me about the food. I had the very nice soup, the melt in your mouth lamb shank and cheesecake. All were very very nice. The service was also excellent , given the crowd size.
I would highly recommend the Riverbank.

We were struggling to find somewhere nice for a panini or burger in tullow and a local lady recommended Tara Arms. I'm a fussy eater and from the outside it just looks like a run of the mill, older pub but don't let that put you off. I got a tuna, cheese and salad panini. My partner got the beef burger. His burger was excellent. It came with chips and onion rings which seemed to be air fried. They were not a bit greasy. My panini was very nice. A little dry but good quality ingredients. Staff were really good and prices affordable. Definitely visit if you're looking for somewhere to eat in Tullow!
