Lily's Blog

Roly’s Bistro in Ballsbridge has been on the go since 1992. In 1996 they added a bakery at the back of the building. It’s a great restaurant and one of the restaurants contributing to Zest cookbook, of which I recently wrote.

This year while at the Young Scientist, I discovered that the downstairs of Roly’s has now been converted to a café. It’s a great addition. They are open from early in the morning serving great food. Here are their menus for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and brunch at the weekend.

The food is gorgeous and fairly priced. They also do take-out food. My only very slight quibble was that service was a bit slow for take-out food, when youngest mouse ordered it to go.

Roly’s has a good website. I’m interested to see that it includes a blog but they haven’t got that off the ground yet.

They have recently published a cookbook, Roly’s Cafe and Bakery. I bought a copy, because I liked what they had included.
