I don't mind paying the 6 Euro because I don't feel cheated when I bite into avocado, mozzarella and basil mayo.

I haven't been to a Bagel Factory in ages for some unknown reason…read more That day I had a lot time to spend while waiting for my car to get fixed around the corner. So I started with a chicken Caesar on a multiseed bagel and a cappuccino. The bagel might have been a bit too crisp / dry but still tasted like I remembered and liked them. Later I had a hot chocolate with marshmallows (surprisingly two big ones) and an americano and for lunch a chilly tuna melt again on a multiseed bagel - this time perfectly fine. In total I spend a good four hours here and loved the atmosphere. As it is a bit off the beaten track it's rather people from the surrounding offices coming in - a lot of them regulars that got greeted accordingly. The staff didn't mind at all me sitting there for so long and was very friendly to me and everyone else. But most of all I enjoyed how relaxed it was sitting there. So even if you're just sitting down for one bagel or sandwich - being surrounded by features of a Georgian house - even with mantelpiece - makes you feel like sitting in a living room.

My gf had a breakfast bagel, which comes with a small coffee till noon (~5 €). They have two outside tables, so you can sit outside while you enjoy your breakfast. The bagels tasted good and fresh, the Coffee was also good and even the small one was large enough to get your motor running ;-) Overall a good alternative to the pricey hotel breakfast.

They have breads, pastries, cakes, biscuits and desserts of different kinds. They also have nice bagels here and their bread theme is about varieties from different parts of the world like France, USA, Ireland, UK and perhaps other European countries. The only thing missing for me was the dense seeded breads so common in Germany. It would be nice to have one or two of those here. Their stuff is good and I loved their fruit scones, granary bread and bagels. Happily come here again. Staff are nice and their products are fresh.

The first day we arrived to Dublin, I had a bit of a headache. I sent my husband in search of coffee and a bite in the hopes of warding off the headache. He brought back a tuna melt and mocha from The Bald Barista. Both were excellent. The tuna melt was herbaceous and flavorful and the mocha was the perfect blend or rich chocolate and strong espresso. So, a few days later when my mom arrived and was hoping for coffee and a bite, I said--I've got just the place! On that visit, we enjoyed our coffee and food in house. You order at the counter where you enter and if you're dining in, you simply take the stairs to the dining room and they'll bring you both your food and coffee. This time, I ordered the same coffee (why mess with a good thing) and a yogurt with everything (fruit, nuts, seeds--the works!). The shop itself is cute, warm, and inviting. The service is top notch with beautifully friendly folks working in here (including the Bald Barista himself). If you're in Dublin and are looking for an exemplary cuppa and some tasty bites served with a smile--this is your spot. Get to it!

You choose your bagel type (they have loads: multiseed, poppy, rye, wholemeal, cheese, plain etc) and one of the many fillings on the menu, or you can make your own. I always get the mushroom melt, which is a fresh burst of flavours: spinach, red peppers, mushrooms and cheese.
