    Does anyone know of any nice 'country-style' restaurants (not take-aways!) in the Newcastle area? Somewhere around a ten minute drive away is what I was hoping for. The Italian in Newcastle seems lovely, have that planned, yet I am seeking out more places...
    We are expecting visitors from out of town and would be nice to keep it in Wicklow! PS I know all the places in Greystones!
    Thank you!
    Sorry Mods if I should have put this in Wicklow forum.

    and Marc Michel in Kilpedder is nice for lunch as well oh and the restaurant in Mount Usher gardens in Ashford as well is now run by Avoca

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    I thought his café had closed down (planning issues or something like that).

    Did it not reopen?

    Thanks for the great tips guys. Exactly what I am looking for. It would be great if Marc Michel had opened again, if I find out I'll let you know.

    Marc Michel's cafe is closed, but he still operates as an organic farmer. Bummer, seemed like a little bit of of the continent in Newtown!

    For food that tastes like day old school dinners and serving staff who act like dinner ladies and who ask you if you are finished with the 'sauce' and when you say no, take it away anyway.
    Yes it sure is different.
