Great afternoon spent in Curiosity! 6 of us all enjoyed a meal, hunters chicken, steak baguette, rump steak (10/5), fajitas, all cooked to perfection. Portions spot on, piping hot, superb value for money. Good choice of drinks, lovely staff and very clean toilets 🙂 See you again next time we are up Athy!!!
