Our story

Ember & Oak is a neighbourhood café serving wood-fired brunch, seasonal small plates, and coffee roasted five minutes down the road. We're open early for the commute crowd and stay cosy long after for something slower. Tucked just off Hill Street in Newry's city centre, we built the whole menu around a single wood-fired oven — everything from the sourdough to the shakshuka passes through it. Local suppliers get a mention on the specials board every week.
