This charming cafe perfectly embodies the warmth and hospitality of the local community, making it a must-visit for anyone in the area. With a reputation for serving delicious comfort food at remarkably reasonable prices, Mona's Cafe has become a beloved spot for regulars and visitors alike.

The decor may reflect its more traditional roots, but it only adds to the charm—it's a place where you can feel at home while indulging in some of the best food around.

Notable on the menu is the crowd-favorite "half'n'half chicken curry," perfectly balanced with both crispy chips and fluffy rice, offering a satisfying blend of textures and flavors.

Such thoughtful gestures make this place special!

Denise H lovingly calls Mona's the “best wee gem,” illustrating the hidden charm of this cafe. Ciarán mentions that while the building is a bit dated, the lively atmosphere and delicious food more than compensate, proving that the quality of the dining experience takes precedence over aesthetics.

Lovely food. Lovely staff. Very reasonable prices. I'm only in the area occasionally but I always try and have lunch at Mona's. I love their "half'n'half chicken curry! (Half chips, half rice).

Popped in here after getting lost in Glen Colin and served by the lovely Teresa. She even told us to get our dog a drink from the bowl which was nice. £23 for 2 adults to have a main and a drink is fantastic. Will definitely be back again.

The building is a little dated but the food, atmosphere and surroundings more than make up for it.
