New Cafe at Toons Bridge Dairy

New Cafe at Toons Bridge Dairy

The Real Olive Company and Toons Bridge Dairy this summer opened a little shop beside their warehouse and buffalo dairy in the old creamery,  Toons Bridge, near Macroom, West Cork.
"We sell our buffalo milk produce (mozzarella, ricotta, butter, raw milk, aged cheese, cream cheese and yoghourt) and our Mediterranean foods (olives, oils, Iberico meats etc.) We also provide an outlet for other local artisan producers (De Roiste puddings, Coolea cheese, jams etc.)."
"Attached to the old creamery there is a pretty garden, where we grow lots of the herbs and edible flowers used on the olive stalls."
 On Friday 28th Sept. We will open a cafe in the creamery garden serving simple food made from the abundant ingredients on site as well as good coffee, organic wine and sherry and scrumptious homemade desserts.
 
Using Our Own Buffalo Milk And Cream
Ricotta cake
Toons Bridge cheese board
Mozzarella salad
Ice cream

Using Real Olive Co. Stuff
Warm crispy Pane carasau with various toppings
Tapas boards
Salads
Toasted sandwiches

Please note: Both  shop and cafe will only open Fri, Sat and Sun because the stalls and vans are gone all over the country to markets, the cheese maker has finished his week and all is peaceful at the creamery.

Open Fri. Sat. Sun. 11am-6pm

The same couple run the Real Olive Company who have stalls in markets all over the country and this is their (limited website) http://www.therealoliveco.com/
The stalls are still operating but I'm pretty sure the dairy shop is on a winter break now until next month. Their email is therealoliveco@gmail.com and you'll find them on twitter at @olivestallcork
