Wonderful staff, they made us feel welcome! Super happy with the items available - gluten free, vegetarian, lactose free etc, they had many accommodations. I would recommend their chai latte and bruschetta!
Tasty food. Chai latte was a bit strange, might order something else next time. They have a lot of gluten free options, for those that need it. Beautiful art on the wall. Desserts and ice-cream look divine but we skipped them as we were only in for breakfast. The music playing over the speakers was FIRE! Very nice place to get something to eat.
If you're touring the Wild Atlantic Way, heading to Kylemore Abbey, or exploring the breathtaking Connemara region, The Purple Door Café in Leenane Village is an absolute must-stop. Nestled along the stunning Killary Harbour, this charming little café offers an unforgettable experience.
Their pastries and treats are divine—perfect for taking on the road to keep you fueled for your journey. They also have a great selection of gluten-free options, so there's something delicious for everyone. Pair your treat with their excellent coffee, or stay a while and enjoy hearty soups that warm the soul.
The owner, Connor & fam, is as gracious as they come, welcoming every guest with genuine warmth and kindness. And if you're really cool, Luna, the café's lovable dog, might just come over to share some affection, adding even more charm to your visit.
The Purple Door Café is not just a place to grab a bite—it's a memory waiting to be made. Don’t miss it while you're exploring the Wild Atlantic Way!
As a coeliac, this cafe was great for me. Yes, service was patchy but they were very friendly and helpful in letting me know what I could eat, and I'm always grateful for that. They pointed out the sweet crepes could be done as buckwheat galettes, which was also welcome.
The nice thing with galettes is that the traditional grain used to make them in Britanny is buckwheat which makes them naturally gluten free.
Beautiful cafe in Connemara. Food is really fresh with vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options. Can sit in or out. Gorgeous fresh salads. So delicious 🤤
Staff were so lovely. Had a gluten free Toblerone slice and hot chocolate and my husband had a coffee and pastry ,all were Soo tasty! Would definitely go back😊
This place has a separate gluten free breakfast lunch and breakfast menu which is amazing. Food is awesome. You usually need to queue but get seated fast. A wee gem !
Super service, during a very busy time.
Food was delicious & service was top notch even tho the girls were ran of their feet. They assisted all the dirty needs from a delicious Coeliac option to a hungry baby with pancakes and Nutella. Excellent value for money. Will be our go to spot anymore we are in Salthill for a day out.
Had lunch here yesterday for the first time. Audrey saw we were a bit unsure about taking a table or ordering first. She couldn't have been more helpful, especially when my wife asked about gluten free. The whole experience was wonderful and we have no hesitation about recommending Esquire at Wellpark. Great food and fabulous service!
Great menu, reasonable prices. Service is always with a smile and the girls are always helpful if you want to tweak their menu. They offer a great kids and also gluten free menu.
Delicious coffee and tea.
Good atmosphere to have a quick or long lunch by the bus station.
The salad and sandwich bar are great and they offer gluten-free and lactose free options.
Worth visiting!
It has been many years since I walked into a cafe and found such welcoming staff. A beautiful open place that has kept up with tradition, the Irish language was in abundance and a pleasure to hear from staff, the menu in both the Irish and English language for all visitors. The food was absolutely fantastic local fresh and full of flavour, every bite mouth watering and every dish available as gluten free also. Keep up the good work. maith sibh!!

Perfect breakfast/brunch! The service was great, lovely people working there and serving fast! The food is amazing!! Very good gluten free options and the coffee is very good!
My family (3 of us) went out to grab a coffee and a sweet treat. We ordered an iced caramel latte, a mocha and a cappuccino, along with a twix brownie, cookie and a gluten free mint biscuit cake (don’t even know what to call it).
The total came to around €24-25.
First of all, the twix brownie and the cookie were okay. The gluten free biscuit was awful, my mum had to dig into it with a knife and it was near impossible to cut, she would have broken her teeth if she tried to eat it normally.
They got my order wrong, they gave me a regular latte so I brought it to their attention and the woman seemed as though I was inconveniencing her. Around 10 minutes passed and the iced latte finally came and there was no caramel. I also did not appreciate the attitude of the woman serving us. My mum also asked for a pot of boiling water and the waitress basically threw it on the counter and walked away. We were absolutely stunned. I will not be returning as the price point clearly does not match the service.
