From Our Family to Yours

Our Story

Our CEO and founder, Breda Quigley always had a passion for great food. Growing up in a small village in County Carlow, at the Foothills of the Wicklow Mountains in Ireland, Breda always dreamed of having her own restaurant. Breda honed her craft in the industry and established The Q Café Company in 1999. Running it initially from her spare bedroom, Breda remained steadfast on her founding values of team empowerment, passion for great food, and strong direct local supplier relationships. Over time, The Q Café Company has grown selectively and carefully curating long term client relationships. We focus on local sustainable produce and wellbeing in our service delivery. With a speciality in healthcare catering, and workplace catering, we create bespoke food service solutions for clients throughout the country. As you will see, although food is our business, our people are our passion. As a family business our team members are part of our QFamily.

Food is our passion but people are our business

We encourage and motivate our teams to deliver creativity in service which will reflect the constantly evolving requirements of our customers and clients.
At The Q Cafe Company, we value our staff above all else. We take time to nurture them, to help them feel empowered and part of our Q Family. In her acceptance speech for CEO Of The Year, Breda Quigley said: ‘without every single member in our team I would be nothing.’
This sentiment permeates every level of our business.
