Loco Grocer is an absolute gem in Arklow! I'm giving it 4 stars primarily because their sandwiches are absolutely fantastic—fresh, packed with flavor, and easily some of the best around. I would definitely return and highly recommend this place to others for a great lunch spot.
The only reason it loses a star is the bakery section. We tried some of the cakes, but they were quite hard—potentially because they had been left out all day or weren't entirely fresh.
Stick to the sandwiches and you'll have an amazing experience. Definitely worth a visit!

Best avocado eggs I've had! Just amazing. Was passing by Arklow and stopped here for lunch. Enjoyed it so much I had to stop by again on he way back the next day. As it was close to kitchen closing we called ahead and they took the order on the phone and food was ready when we arrived and had time to eat before closing. Great service!

Really fab experience 💛 I had my Mum who is not completely mobile at the moment with me & rang up to ask if they could keep me a table for Saturday lunchtime, knowing it probably be v busy. They were happy to & really looked after her, both of us so well.
Delicious food (eggs Benedict with the mustard sauce is chefs kiss 🤌🏻 I asked for mine with avocado instead of panchetta.. heads up: the guacamole has chilli in it.. seems chilli is loved here so do specify if you don't want any!). The Rhubarb cheesecake was divine & enough to share ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Neither of us are fans of chilli in any form (make sure you let them know!) & they took her plate back to give her new eggs when she was reluctant about the chilli salt on them. I can't believe their baker makes all of those cakes fresh daily! I'd love this place to be open later as I'm not into pubs & there are not really any other options in Arklow, but I'm so grateful for LoCo either way! Thanks to all the staff! Xxx
