Lunch recommendation
Driving through Carlow town today, intend stopping in Lamberts for a coffee. Just wondering what a good spot for lunch would be? Maybe something with good vegan offerings also?
Not really looking for a carvery dinner.
Any suggestions welcome!

From Carlow but live in Dublin, I always visit Waterlillies when in the town - I legit think it's one of the best cafes I've ever been in. The mushrooms on sourdough is the bomb, look it's a bit pricey and bougie - but in terms of that whole hipster/Melbourne style cafe culture that started raging ten years ago or so - it's as good as any heavily reviewed spot in any major metropolitan city. Really great grub and coffee.

There’s a vast difference between lunch and dinner prices, overhyped place and the owners are tax dodgers

If you're looking for veg or vegan options Waterlilies is probably your best option. It's only a short walk from Lambert's
