   Have been there a few times before and wanted to meet up with friends in area. Booked table a week in advance. Received reminder day before to confirm if still going to Póg. Good table at window inside restaurant. Nice menu. Good variety of options. Service was great and all as ordered. Maybe a bit overpriced. Despite being very busy (12.30 on a Saturday) we didn’t feel rushed to vacate our table. Background music playing and all the surrounding conversations definitely made noise levels very high for chatting. Maybe lower volume of the background music would be better. Overall a great visit and we will be back. Thank you

   The food, atmosphere and overall service were excellent as always. Long wait to get our coffees / smoothies but they were out-the-door busy on a sunny day, so this is unusual. They eventually came with our meals. Make sure you book in advance especially at weekends.

   Three of us had Sunday lunch the day before St Patrick's Day. It was busy. The food was good, the service was a little disjointed. Our order was straight forward, 2 tuna melts and an egg dish 2 pots of tea and a flat white coffee. When we were looking for another flat white, a different coffee arrived, followed by two flat whites. These things happen. It's a really nice place with a great vibe. The only minor complaint we had was that the music was quite loud, and it was difficult to have a conversation because people were trying to talk over the music. When we asked them to take down the volume they did. Overall, we really enjoyed our lunch and yes, we'll be back.

   It was my first time at Pog. I have driven by it plenty of times, but I always thought it was a takeaway place because of all the people going in and out. Once I looked up the Breakfast Menu, i was sold. My partner's one request was food with Biscoff!!!! There was also lots for me to eat as a strict Vegetarian...so we both would be happy. I do not enjoy eating out; I prefer to cook at home, but we were making an occasion of it. The staff were helpful and HONEST with all my questions (I always ask for advice on what to order). I knew it was dog-friendly, but I didn't realise she was also allowed inside! This sealed the deal, as my partner is always cold. I have a lovely, relaxing, calm breakfast, sitting on the swinging egg chair with my dog in my lap! Note to self: walk the dog beforehand, as she was so excited to be there and wanted to sniff everything! This will be our go-to local breakfast place, and I have told lots of people about it since then. Also love that there are other locations, so I know I can get my fix anywhere. What really impressed me was that they asked my opinion on a brand-new item on the menu that I ordered, Blue Majik Bowl. That told me that they care about what their customers like and want. We have already picked what we will order on our next visit, probably this weekend. The online booking system was also great, as I hate being disappointed when you arrive at a place that is full. Once I have my mind set on a place, I am not happy changing the plan as I am particular about menus, as I am a vegetarian. Basically....IM CONVERTED!!! Matcha is fab!

   The post workout pancakes are really good, not too sweet and satisfying. The staff is good and the restaurant is quite new and clean. Highly recommended!

   Little bit cold sat in the overall area. Maybe heaters should be provided when weather is bad

    The staff were brilliant. I had a 4 month old pup with me. POG is dog friendly and they organised a nice quiet corner table. Food and ambience matched the standard of the team
