Umpleby's Bakery & Café

The key to a successful day of celebrating St. Patrick’s Day is a firm foundation in your stomach.  And look no further than Umpleby’s!   We’ll be offering our new breakfast menu of eggs and such   not to mention our usual array of pastries, coffee, egg pies and good craic!

Then come back in the afternoon for lunch –  we’ll be offering Guinness braised beef brisket with boiled cabbage, carrots and potatoes.    This will keep you going until the wee hours of the morn.

On the sweet side we will have Baileys Cheesecakes,  Festive Cupcakes,  Shamrock Sugar Cookies, Jameson’s Walnut Tarts and more good craic!

On the bread side we will have Irish Soda Bread and Guinness Brown Bread.

 Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

I know from experience that today you should be careful out there!   Last year on the Ides my son broke his arm slipping on the ice at school,  one of my bakers decided to want to work somewhere else and gave me notice and I also seem to recall that one of the refrigerators in the bakehouse had to be serviced (I think it was the ice machine – it wound up needing a new part as the old one failed).

So the safe play is to walk or drive carefully here to the cafe and have lunch or calmly have a latte and a croissant at the big round table in the corner.

Et tu, Brute?

Mother Nature is sending us some beautiful weather this week so we will oblige her by opening the Patio!!
