100 would recommended! Food and service were amazing. Definitely would come back and eat there again.

It's a quaint little place for breakfast, although the service is not the best. It took a while to place our order, and we had to ask for utensils, refills, etc. Seating inside as well as sidewalk cafe style seating was available. We sat outside because there was a wait to sit inside. Covered awnings keep you dry from the light Irish drizzle. We had the cheese and bacon omelette, and the cheese and mushroom omelette. Both included buttered toast, and the omelettes were "OK" but a bit on the dry side (and cost €9.95) €7.95 should have been more like it. Green tea was €3.95. As I already stated, the service wasn't the best, servers had to be flagged down often. At one point, one of the only two servers we ever saw, decided to take a smoke break on the patio right in front of us. I was trying to flag him down for our check, but it was madness trying to get his attention. Not the worst place in town, but I'd skip this place if I were you. read more

Came here for a traditional Irish breakfast and was not disappointed. I know it's in a touristy area, a couple blocks down from temple bar, but it felt authentic nonetheless. The staff was friendly and attentive and I liked how it looked like it probably did 50-60 years ago. The breakfast was prepared quickly and it was delicious. read more

A gem of a find for breakfast in Temple Bar area that opens at 6am in the morning. Not only is the home cooked food delicious but Alan and his team of lads will welcome you and entertain you with their hilarious Irish humor. So good we are going back for a second time tomorrow. Place is a little small but they will find a place for you read more

We go to Dublin every 6 months and this is our go to breakfast spot! The staff is great and the food is even better! Ho for the Brie toast or the Irish breakfast.. best one we ever had! We always get the tables outside (even in the winter) and I just love it! read more

This is a MUST stop during your trip to Dublin. Food is hearty and great and Alan rhe owner is a hoot. You step in the door and it's a comedy show. Alan and the staff have great senses of humor and start with the kidding around. A gem of a place! They also gave us great recommendations for Dublin, which was so welcome! read more

Phenomenal Irish breakfast and the owner deserves genuine hug for how nice he is. Also get the Irish coffee. The bacon was cooked perfect and the black pudding was awesome. read more

Excellent breakfast! The owner is very friendly and the whole place is warmly decorated for Christmas. Tried the Irish breakfast, the feta pesto omelet and the bacon and cheese omelet. Amazing food! Highly recommend. read more

We were seated outside even though inside was half empty, but it was nice enough out. Ordered the "heavenly" omelet with cheese and mushrooms, which came with a really hefty piece of toast. I've been looking forward to good Irish butter, and whatever was slathered on my bread wasn't it. The meal was lackluster and needed chives or some seasoning. The Irish coffee was phenomenal, but i went here for breakfast and got something i could have made myself. Nothing to write home about, but not bad either. read more

Popped in for Irish coffees, which was hands down the best I've ever had. In fact, I don't normally like Irish coffee - the alcohol tends to stand out as sort of watering down the coffee. Not here. Both flavors were unmistakeable and delicious. Staff were very kind to us. I definitely recommend this as a stop for anyone seeing Temple Bar neighborhood in Dublin. read more

There's nothing more fun while traveling than randomly stumbling upon a place that is just magical - to the point that it makes you long to return to the destination for years to come. That's exactly that happened when we found the Stage Door Cafe while visiting Dublin. The service was incredible, the breakfast was delicious, and the Irish coffee was the best we've ever had. read more

Our favorite meal while in Dublin! My friend and I snagged a table outside and had a great experience. I tried a Bailey's hot chocolate (amazing) and an Irish Breakfast. The service was so friendly too. read more

A lovely and lively spot for brunch! I stopped by with my wife and cannot believe how delicious the food was! I ordered the Irish Breakfast and it was a perfectly sized portion (although it seems rather large for one person). The toast was delicious and thick; perfect for the beans! My wife ordered an open-face brie, bacon, greens and tomato sandwich with a fried egg. It was absolutely divine! The chef was such a character and very charismatic--a lovely spot before starting the day. read more

They lost our order, so we waited along time for our food. Eggs were delicious but the portions were small.

"The menu's short boys, but it is S E X Y!" is what I heard when walking into this establishment. At first glance, it seems like another Irish breakfast/brunch place. However, I can say that after eating here the charm really evolves during your time there. Not only did we have a giant bread basket above our head that was actively used, but the decor is just simply full of life. This decor is a reflection of the staff, and specifically, the person who I believe was the owner. They were welcoming and hospitable as anyone can be, and they made us feel like we belong there. Also, they're hilarious. The menu is truly short - there's only about 9 things on the menu in addition to great Irish coffee. We got the scramble eggs & toast and the bacon & cheese omelet. The toast was as thick as my slightly-twiggy arms and was thoroughly blackened and buttered. If we lived in the area, we would be back here for breakfast often. If you're visiting from outside the country, stop by! You won't be disappointed. read more

Oh I absolutely love this little breakfast place. It has only opened up recently due to Covid, but I had the Irish breakfast and it was so hearty and so good. The owner was so sweet and funny and was cracking jokes with everyone. It was quite evident to see how much love he had for his work and the people who came in, and he loved listening to everyone stories and where they were from. 12/10 would highly recommend read more

Yup, go here! The service is good and you'll get a good laugh if you don't mind being cursed at. I loved my feta omelet and Americano. It's small but was the only breakfast place open at 9am on a Saturday so I am happy we found it! read more

Cute little cafe with indoor and outdoor seating. It was pretty busy when we got here around noon but we were able to snatch a table outside. It's on a cobblestone street that's not too crowded but not too empty either. I ordered the Irish breakfast and my friend ordered the brie, bacon, and tomato open sandwich. The Irish breakfast is average in taste compared to other Irish breakfasts I had in the country. I wish it had come with potatoes like it did at other restaurants and cafes. The open sandwich, however, was a filling portion and extremely delicious. Since the cafe was crowded we were warned that we may have to wait about 20 minutes for our food. We ended up waiting about 40 minutes but we enjoyed the scenery outside. Our waiter was nice and attentive. read more

After a long flight, we popped into the Stage Door Café at 7 am and couldn't have felt more welcomed. The guy who greeted us at the door was extremely friendly, hospitable, and hilarious. It was the perfect welcome for my first trip to Ireland. We each ordered the Irish breakfast and two lattes, both were delicious. Highly recommend this quant little café when in Dublin. read more

Wife and I walked by and saw an A-Frame sign with "Best Irish Coffee" and we HAD to go in. CONGRATULATIONS, your "suggestive advertising" worked! We were greeted and sat down with our order taken. Our server (Pictured I'm attached photos) was as friendly as could be. I asked what desserts would go well with our beverages and he regretfully informed us they had no desserts. No worries, we were there for a beverage. When he brought our order he also set a saucer on the table with a chocolate candy bar (of his own)! His commitment to service was so great he gave us HIS PERSONAL snack to compliment our Irish Coffee. I cannot say how awesome this was of him. I paid my tab, thanked him, and left a 50% tip just to thank him again for his generosity. Just for the amazing customer service, we will visit for a meal on a future trip to Dublin! Thank you! read more

One of the coolest little restaurants in Temple Bar. VERY small, but we were the one of the only tables there, so no issue for us. Both of us had the full Irish breakfast and it was one of the best during our stay. If we make it back to Dublin, I'll make it a point to come back here. read more

Great local restaurant with a warm, welcoming, and humorous owner to greet you. Met our needs for a simple breakfast and warm drink!

We'd headed out for Sunday breakfast to another location nearby and were stuffed around by the staff there being unsure whether they wanted to feed us or not - so we left. We ended up here, and by the time we did I was super grumpy and starving hungry but thankfully we were warmly greeted, shown to a table and quickly given menus. And yes, they were serving breakfast - hurrah! Stage Door Cafe is worth visiting for the decor alone - it's very Parisian (I imagine) and I felt like I'd been transported back in time to the 20s. There's sweet small booths, large full length windows and a bit of a rustic feel (without being crappy). The guys running this place were simply brilliant - friendly, warm and welcoming and never far away from grabbing you another drink or dishing up your food. I went for the full Irish breakfast at €9.95 and while I'm not going to say it was the best breakfast ever, it certainly got me over my grumpiness and filled up my belly. The bacon was that dirty kind of bacon you get in a fry up where everything has been cooked on the grill together but it still tasted pretty damn good. I'm not sure I'd come back here to eat, but if you're in the area and looking for a smile and someone cool to hang out, you should definitely swing by here. read more

We strolled to a cafe prior that was open and told tersely when we asked for coffee, "We don't open for another 20mins." It was 9am!!! Are you kidding me?! Sometimes I am in awe of the stupidity of business owners who don't exploit the obvious - the morning office crowd. We went to where the huge rainbow flag waved in the summer sun, it was calling us like sirens on a caffeine rock and we succumbed. Really cute spot, charming waiter. The windows open out to the cobble stones of Temple bar. I must go there for breakfast this weekend. Only downfall was when my roomie spilt her coffee down her brilliant white dress - yeah the scene was not pretty, I don't do well in situations like that so I just tutted and sidestepped away from her anger. But the waiter stepped up. He got her a tea-towel and let her go into the kitchen to douse the stain in water - it was fun to watch, like a mini wet t-shirt competition but with a really angry competitor in a very expensive dress, so I took that as a cue to stay silent and not holler inappropriate things. read more

It says best breakfast in Dublin on the facade and they ain't lying! The host is the most friendliest person we've met so far and in Dublin that means a lot since everyone is so welcoming. I usually hate blood pudding but I loved theirs. If I lived here I would come every day! read more

Quaint and classy restaurant stacked atop the clamering streets of Dublin. We were treated so well here and everything we had for dinner was great too. Despite the cheering and fun down below we couldnt hear much even at a window seat. It really is a nice place. Our food was all fresh and lite. Side note: Our B&B in Dublin was cancelled on us hours before we were planning to checkin so we found ourselves homeless in Dublin and hopeless in regards to staying within our budget. The two waitresses that took care of us were so nice and so helpful. They were willing to house us if they could! We stayed well after our meal as they were cleaning up and closing because we had wifi and were searching for somewhere to stay. They never once said they were closing or gave us a time limit. They were seriosuly the nicest people and it really helped us not completely lose it in such a stressful situation. read more

Super small cafe, you would think it would be bigger from the outside but small and cozy. Irish breakfast is what I got here well because I am in Ireland, and need of some greasy comfort in the morning. Overall the service was really good, and surprisingly fast for a joint that was packed on a Sunday morning, because not a lot of places are opened Sunday morning for breakfast. The decor was different, as in very eccentric-ically different but not in a hipster kind of way, in a very artistic way. The bathroom is small, it is a one cook, one waiter setup but they put some good food on the table. read more
