The Q Cafe Company were last night awarded an outstanding five awards in the Irish Cafe Quality Food Awards! The evening began with anticipation of what was to come and it certainly did not disappoint.

Our expansive team let out cheers of pure joy and pride as each of our thoroughly deserving award winners walked up to accept the coveted award. A night of celebration and congratulations ensued with the awards taking pride of place on the company table at the celebration dinner.

In addition to the five awards received, we are supremely proud to note and celebrate the honour of Highly Commended for European Foundation in the Contract Catering Cafe of the Year category. In addition our entries for the Lunch Solutions (CJ’s Summer Granola), Breakfast Solutions (Honey Chilli Shrimp Popcorn) and Cakes (Jill’s Red Velvet Cup Cakes) categories received the Highly Commended honour, of which we are supremely proud.

We would like to take this opportunity to commend and thank our stellar team in particular Executive Head Chef Dave Gorman and Chef Jill Walsh for their key role in mentoring our younger younger chefs in the build up to these awards. Development and nurturing of youth is a core tenant of The Q Cafe Company and we are delighted to celebrate with our younger winners!

We would like to thank all those at the Irish Cafe Quality Food Awards, and in particular Lara Newton, for their hard work in the organisation of such a fantastic awards and celebration evening.
