First we brought you the best coffee in every county in Ireland – but now, we’re upping the ante. Big-time.
Hangovers can happen at any time, anywhere. And there is there any cure sweeter than a big, heart-stopping-artery-clogging FRY?
Deep breaths now, you’re in good hands. Go forth, hit the road, and embrace that indigestion.
Antrim – Maggie May’s, Belfast
Their brekkies have cured millions of headachey students over the years, and shall continue to do so for many years to come.
Maggie, we salute you.

Does that look unreal or does that look unreal.
Armagh – Embers, Armagh Town
This fry looks like a hug from yer mammy on a plate and could genuinely bring a tear to our eyes.
Just LOOK at the dome of scrambled egg – beaut.

Carlow – Tougher’s, Carlow Town
This is about as doirtyyyy as it gets. Bit of a trek out to but well worth it when that grease is pumping through your veins giving you the will to live through your hangover.
Satisfaction never tasted so good.
Cavan – MacNean House, Blacklion
The creme de la creme of Co Cavan, and the pride and joy of chef Neven Maguire.
Imagine your fave fry… okay? But now imagine it in a croissant. Neven, you genius.
Has to be tried to be believed, but some have dubbed this a gift from the gods.
Clare – Joe’s Cafe, Lahinch
A little more on the fancy shmancy side of things, this fry-up consists of portobello ‘shrooms, bacon, puddin’ and poached eggs on a bagel with relish!
Absolutely superb after hitting some gnarly waves down on the beach. Straight out of a Denny ad, really.
Cork – An Chistin Beag, Skibbereen
Located in the centre of Skibbereen town, joint serves the best bacon in all the county – so good, in fact, that we’re going to forgive the flagrant grammatical error in their name.
The only thing that beats a trip to Skib, is a trip to Skib for the fry up. YUUUSSSS.
Donegal – Maddens Bridge Bar, Bundoran
Let’s face it: there could only be one winner in this county, really.
Renowned for its seafood, but undersung for its delicious brekkie menu, the Big Bridge Breakfast is all you’ll ever need after a morning out on the waves. Stunning.

Derry – Cafe Soul, Shipquay Place
These guys offer a major T.G.I.FRYday fry on a Friday.
Try saying that five times fast.
A bizarre little spot but with seriously bangin’ tunes and one of the most decent fry-ups in the city. Sure ya can’t bate that.

Down – Adele’s, Bangor
This little caf serves up an impressive fry for just £6.10 that they say is “only for the brave”.
That sounds like a challenge to me.
Dublin – Gerry’s, Montague Street
This article isn’t about choosing the best overall fry in the country, but if it was, Gerry’s would be a serious contender for the title.
Amidst a street full of notions and a city full of complications, Gerry knows how to thrive on simplicity – and he nails brekkie, albeit grilled rather than fried, with the precision and the panache of a million Irish mammies.
You need to check this place out in the near future.

Delish grub and remarkably good value. Can’t find fault with that.

Monaghan – Missy A’s, Market Street
As fry-ups go Missy A’s is one of the most fried we’ve tried – but since when is that a bad thing?
