Excellent meal!! Plenty of flavor! The only let down was the profiteroles. Filled with unsweetened cream or no vanilla. A pastry cream would have been perfect! Smothered in too many nuts. But the manageresse took it off the bill after we told her. Thank you. We had a great evening!!

Reviews
Located in the a “Home Depot” type of store this place is ok if you simply can’t go on without some sort of food immediately . Quiche is dull and heavy with a leaden crust. Younger staff is welcoming, senior staff is brusque and unpleasant. Might be ok for a cup of tea.
Hi Maria
We are located in The Keadeen Hotel, in Newbridge, Co Kildare, not a store. Nor do we serve quiche.
You may have the wrong location with a similar/same name. We would appreciate any review of our premises if you have been here.
Many thanks, Kind regards The Keadeen Hotel
We have been eating at the Keadeen over 41 yrs since we moved to Newbridge. Excellent food staff and luxury...on our doorstep.
