So sorry for the late notice but we were only informed yesterday that High Street in Bagenalstown will be closed to traffic Monday to Wednesday next week. This is for resurfacing works following the work done in Bagenalstown by local town council

Unfortunately it doesn’t make business sense to open thru the works as we learnt the hard way nearly TWO years ago when the road was closed for retarring following works by Irish Water!

The Meet & Greet for originally scheduled for Tuesday morning is now cancelled.
Apologies for any inconvenience but unfortunately this is totally out of our control.

We’re proud to contribute to the new Carlow Food Waste Recipe Book – Saved and Savoured, created by the Climate Action Office of Carlow County Council in association with the Carlow Food Network of which The Old Post Office is a proud member. The recipe book showcases simple and delicious recipes including The Boxty Breakfast Snack from Chef Alan McSweeney of the Old Post Office Cafe making great use of ingredients that might normally be thrown away. Initiatives like this highlight the commitment of The Old Post Office to responsible food practices and sustainability with food waste such a pressing issue. The book will be officially launched at the Embracing Change – Inspiration, Health & Wellbeing event on March 24th at Ballykealey House Hotel.
