Chill at our riverside café
Our base at Mill Lane is a hidden gem. Standing on the banks of the river surrounded by green foliage and the sounds of rushing water it is hard to believe that we are only 7km from the heart of Dublin City. Enjoy a coffee or tea from the ‘Workshop’ cafe after your trip. Birthday party? Why not use our outdoor seating area to celebrate and enjoy authentic outdoor cooked stone baked Italian pizzas. Check out the pizza menu and to preorder please contact us.
