I visited Courtney Gallery in Ashbourne today. I had been looking forward to my lunch all morning. Even had a small breakfast as I knew I was in for a culinary treat. We ordered a blue cheese and pear salad and an open salmon, cucumber and cream cheese sandwich.
It was amazing. The service was quick, the waitress very friendly. We were also able to speak to the young chef and compliment her on the food and it's presentation. So if you are in the Ashbourne area and want a meal, a sandwich or cake with many vegan and gluten free options, then why not call in to Courtney Gallery on St John Street

Wonderful cake, coffee, and art. Lovely place to go, browse the art, and have coffee & cake. The orange almond cake is really good. You can get cheaper coffee in Ashbourne, but few provide such a lovely backdrop.

Just used the cafe, a relaxing sit. Lovely cappuccino n chocolate cake. Cafe is upstairs, unsure if any other access than stairs.

Lovely lunch with a good range of open sandwiches and salad (including gluten free bread) Even my mum was happy and she generally finds something! Very good range of real teas with the added bonus that if you order a pot you can have as many refills as you like in the day. Friendly staff and a relaxing atmosphere, can't recommend this place enough.

What a find!
Our salads were soo delicious, beautifully presented, a good size and not overly priced.
Then there's the Art! Can't wait togo back.

If you visit Ashbourne then make sure you visit the Gallery and Cafe. You will not be disappointed. Check out the great art and then upstairs for a coffee and a bite to eat, served by helpful and cheerful staff. It is worth a visit purely to see the inside of the interesting building. Dog friendly also. Thanks to All at St. John Street Gallery and Cafe.

A very pleasant environment with excellent food. The open sandwiches are generous and very tasty combinations with good bread. The camomile tea I had was made with real leaves. A great little place.

Lovely gallery with excellent art by talented local artists that is changed regularly.
The cafe is excellent, really good quality, well presented and imaginative food. It may seem a little expensive when you read the menu but it is well worth it when you see/taste the dishes. The salad here is probably the best salad I have ever had. There are lots of veggie options and gluten free food too. Everything is fresh and prepared to order. The tea is real leaf tea with free refills.
Definitely worth a visit!

Lovely cafe and very restful place. Enjoy coffee or food. Dogs welcome. Great place to meet friends and not noisy. Some wonderful Art work to view at the same time. Cafe is tucked away upstairs so sometimes I forget its there. Well worth a visit though. Welcoming and friendly too.
