𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐑𝐮𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐁𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝐂𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐞 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐩, 𝐓𝐡𝐮𝐫𝐥𝐞𝐬 ✨☕

Tucked away in an unexpected spot in Stakelums Hardware, The Runner Bean is one of Thurles’ true hidden gems, known for their incredible coffee, homemade food, and famously warm welcome!

From freshly made brunch and homemade soups to old-style desserts and Louise’s award-winning preserves, everything here is made with care using quality, locally sourced ingredients. Their brunch menu is a firm favourite with locals, and the cakes alone are worth the visit 🍰

The Runner Bean is all about great food, great coffee, and even better hospitality.

We would like to say a huge thank you to Louise for contributing a Brunch for 2 to our Taste of Our Town giveaway, a fantastic addition that really captures what local dining is all about 🍽️
