Coffee Break With Barbara

I went here almost every week over the past 7 months. The cafe never disappointed me. The staff is very nice. Definitely a must-go in Monaghan! (I recommend the BLT Sandwich)

My new fave coffee shop The coffee is the best in town! Ready to drink temp so if you like an extra hot coffee ask for it to be extra hot! I got a toasty & it was the best toasty I’ve ever had! Delicious! Lovely cosy little spot, we sat outside in one their pods and was lovely! The staff are lovely, especially the young lad!!!

Beautiful pet friendly cafe. In the heart of Monaghan town. With great food and friendly staff. I look forward to my next visit!!!

We were passing through on way to Donegal travelling with our pup and baby and needed somewhere to stop. We were delighted to find this dog friendly cafe where we could all go together. The sandwiches, cakes, and coffee were amazing as were the staff who served our pup with water and treats as soon as he walked in! Look forward to visiting again!!

Perfect hidden gem for a post hike bite with the dog The staff were so friendly and excellent service, food was delicious, soup and toastie was just what I wanted after a chilly end to a hike Highly recommend if in Monaghan

Easily the best coffee in Monaghan. Lovely service and relaxed atmosphere.

My partner and I are regulars in Barbara's. We literally do not go to any other coffee shops in Monaghan. The coffee is ALWAYS fantastic. Honestly, I've never had a bad cup here. And, no difference between sit in or take away. Plus, I haven't even told you about the food options. Savory fillers like Sandwiches or Pancakes & Crispy Bacon. Sweet treats like Homemade Protein Balls, Scones, Traybakes (Caramel Squares, Brownies, Biscoff Treats etc.), Pancakes & Maple Syrup, and Cakes (different options regularly). Oh but don't think you won't be warmly greeted, welcomed in, and helped in the most friendly and inviting way. The staff are amazing. They also actively invite dog owners to visit the cafe with their dogs!! So, whether you're lucky enough to be a dog owner or you just love them to bits, this is your place. Finally, I'll also mention that the whole cafe, despite being small (seating for 16-20) is lovely and warm. Both in temperature and mood. The décor is soft and comfy, and features art from local artists available to buy. In all, this is the coffee shop in Monaghan that is always the first choice.

This was the best coffee I’ve had during my entire Irish vacation! Great atmosphere, extraordinary service.
