    We're talking steaming bowls of loveliness here, not the mystery vegetable stuff you get in the Kylemore Café. Cheap and tasty and in good sized portions, options include dahl Indian veg, roasted red pepper, tomato and goats cheese, spicy veg gumbo, thai green chicken curry, chunky chicken and corn chowder and chilli beef. Eat-in prices start from €5.30, and you get a whacking hunk of bread and a piece of fruit thrown in for nowt. Good deal.

    I used to come to Soup Dragon all the time when I worked on Capel Street. The place was always packed at lunchtime, and it's not difficult to understand why - generous portions of hearty homemade soups to take away, accompanied by wedges of really good bread (proper brown soda or seeded granary bread) and a piece of fruit. Take-away lunches don't come much more wholesome than that. They have eleven soups to choose from which cange daily and come in small, medium and large sizes (the large could easily fill two people), and a small selection of sandwiches, bagels, wraps and salads too. Tried and tested favourites of mine were the lentil dahl (spicy, buttery and very very filling) and the thai green curry soup. Mmmm delish. They used to have a slightly bigger outlet around the corner on the quays with more seating, which unfortunately is no more. It's been almost a year since I was here for lunch but I'll be back soon to avail of their new lunch deal, a small soup (usually about €5.50), bread and fruit for just €3. Bargain.

    Small carrot coriander soup with 4 pieces of bread and butter. Yummeeee

    I wish I had visited this place during winter. But now I know where it's located! It's a tiny spot so be early as it gets packed with people pretty quickly. The menu on the outside is basically for you to have an idea, but in reality you need to check the board inside to know exactly what they're serving during the day. They have free mint water and each bowl of soup comes with bread and butter. I had a carrot coriander and it was very tasty. Will definitely come back again.

Since I don't eat red meat, I was very excited to see a vegetarian Irish breakfast option. I ordered this as well as a mocha latte. Despite the rain, my friend and I sat outside since all of the indoor seating was occupied. Thankfully some heaters provided warmth for what could've been a chilly breakfast. Very quickly the lattes came out which my friend and I sipped on. They were soooo cute, mine had the design of a little bear on top! The latte itself was hot and not too sweet, the perfect start to the experience. After a few short minutes, the food came out! Immediately, my friend and I dug in. It was honestly everything I expected and even more! There were no weak links on the plate and there were generous portions as well. I sat there for a while working my way through my delicious plate!! Overall, I was very happy with my experience at Beanhive. It was an aesthetic cafe that also provided a hearty breakfast. I would definitely recommend.

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!

They prepare and serve up coffee as a city better than any other city in the world. Sorry Seattle, Portland, its the truth. As a full fledge coffee nerd/snob I am looking for great coffee nothing more. Also if they don't roast their own beans and they are just serving someone else's coffee they will never get above a 3 star from me. I am looking strictly at the coffee and the customer service in my reviews. Accents was fantastic. When I walked in the Barista, a pretty little red headed Irish woman was doing some spectacular latte art on a Mocha, she smiled and asked me what I would like. I order just a regular Latte. They do not roast their own beans, but she was out of coffee in the grinder, she reached for a new sealed bag and I caught the name, McCabe's. I was unfamiliar so afterward I looked them up. here is the link if anyone is interested. (https://mccabecoffee.com) Local award winning Cork roaster. I watched the Barista, fill the grinder and then told me it would be a minute as she needed to dial in the espresso. I shook my head in a circle like I didn't get it but okay. She had it dialed in after 3 shots. looked like 18 in and 36 out. She was a pro, steamed my milk while the shot pulled in about 24 seconds. I ordered my drink to go but it was still presented with great art and a smile. Told me where the sugar and lids were but suggested I tried it before i added anything, that the espresso is very good. I tasted it and said, "You are right, needs nothing" and it didn't. BEST LATTE I HAVE HAD THIS TRIP TO DUBLIN. I am breaking my own rule here, I can because they are my rules, they don't roast but they use fantastic local Micro-roasted beans and prepare my drink to perfection. Don't miss this little gem the in Dublin. 5 Stars.

Ambience: Fun, funky, hippie, artistic and lively, with a little local health food grocery within the premises, as well as kitchen and cafe.

And there were so, so many astonishing fresh-baked things available... serious temptation for the two diabetics on holiday! Service: Our server really went out of her way to make certain we were comfortable and well taken care of. She was bright, friendly, communicative, and quite helpful to two strangers who'd just arrived in Ireland! Value: Remarkably low price for such high-quality food! Wait time: None. We were seated immediately at a spacious table in a window space filled with morning sun. Other: Great family of people here, creating a community space for locals and a great welcome for visitors.
