Sol Bistro is located in the centre of
Thomastown on Low Street, just up from the Post office and
between O'Hara's and Eddie Murphy's.
Cafe Sol is an
intimate bistro style restaurant located
in the heart of the mediaeval city of Kilkenny,
within a few minutes walk of the
major Kilkenny City hotels such as The Kilkenny Ormonde Hotel,
The Kilkenny Hibernian Hotel, The Kilkenny Rivercourt Hotel, The
Kilkenny Inn, The
Langton House Hotel, Zuni Townhouse and Hotel Kilkenny.
Our cuisine may be described as contemporary Irish with a
Mediterranean influence. We use fresh local produce such as
Lavistown sausage and cheese, Kilkenny beef and Ballon free
range eggs. We
offer quality food
and wine
with friendly service in a warm and inviting atmosphere.
Open
for lunch and for evening dinner
seven days a week, we
run occasional theme nights and regular Wine Tasting Dinners. For

The team work hard on sourcing,
and they deliver with good cooking...A confident signature style
is really emerging here, and the people of Kilkenny are flocking
to it."
Bridgestone
Guide 2010

|
|
“...a
very popular daytime Cafe and evening restaurant, warmly
decorated in yellow and terracotta...This is an interesting
restaurant, offering something different from the ‘sameness’
of so many menus, and at reasonable prices”
Georgina
Campbell’s 2010 Ireland Guide to the Best Places to Eat, Drink
and Stay in Ireland
|
|
|
“Arguably
the best place to eat in Kilkenny, whether you want a quick
lunch or a leisurely evening meal. The emphasis is on fresh,
local ingredients; there's plenty of fish on the menu and always
some good vegetarian options."
Rough
Guide to Ireland

“one
of the most appealing eateries in Ireland”

Menu
and Sourcing
Recognising
the seasons in the daily menu is important to us. We source all
our produce as locally as possible. This both supports local
artisan food producers who make quality products, and provides us
with nutritious and tasty ingredients for our menu.
One
such producer is Olivia Goodwillie who produces
Lavistown sausage, a delicious gourmet pork sausage. Fish is fresh from
Dunmore East and we use free range eggs in our kitchen.
All chicken and beef used in the restaurant is 100% Irish.
