The two connecting dining rooms are amazing and cozy, with a big bar counter at the back, wine racks and a huge assortment of whimsical objects or artwork around the place. Upstairs there's a terrace where you can fully enjoy their tapas menu and maybe even go for a cocktail. There's a set dishes menu, a smaller tapas menu and also the specials of the day, written on a big blackboard - that our hostess kindly perched on a chair in front of our table, improptu style. In both fixed menus there are many vegetarian and/or gluten free options. The wine list was interesting enough, though not perfect. I managed to find a beautiful spanish Verdejo there, so that must count for something. We were served delicious food and the only thing I can point is that my vegetarian stuffed zucchini had a bit too much cheese, but other than that everything was good and their special of the day, salmon, was cooked perfectly. Unfortunately we were both too full to try the desserts, but at least we got to to wrap our lunch up with a nice espresso.

Whelehans Wines continues to stand out as one of the most impressive wine shops in Dublin. The level of care in how everything is presented -- from the layout of the store to the range itself -- is immediately noticeable. What really sets it apart is the knowledge. On this visit, I was again guided towards wines I wouldn't have chosen myself, with clear, thoughtful explanations around the regions, producers, and what would pair well with what I had planned. It's not just a place to buy wine, it's somewhere you actually learn. The tasting element adds another layer entirely. Being able to experience wines before purchasing changes the whole process and makes it far more considered and enjoyable. It's rare to find a wine shop that balances depth, approachability, and genuine expertise this well. Easily one of the best wine shops in Dublin if you're looking for something beyond the ordinary.

What a pleasant surprise discovering this place when a friend suggested to go here for a late…read moreSunday lunch. I don't often drive past it so hadn't realised it's not a pub anymore. And what a transformation! I first thought from the design that it's a rather posh place but no, they are very down to earth. It's not often that you can get a good glass of wine for €3.50 (ok, it goes slowly upwards from here). The prices for food are on the average Dublin price side - but with very good quality. We arrived around 3pm and the cafe was busy but still had a table for us. It took a bit to get the order in but after that no further hickups and actually lovely staff. And the food! I had a Caprese Salad with buffalo mozarella and thick tomato slices. My friend went for their signature salad and we both where more than happy. I had a glas of South African Chenin Blanc and ended up buying a bottle of it later in the attached shop. We both felt for another treat afterwards so I went for a scone - not often you get one with clotted cream! - and my friend had a passion fruit muffin. Again we were both very happy. I love the concept of having a leisurely lunch in a cafe that is attached to a very well stocked shop that has wines from around the world but also a very decent selection of craft beer. So you can even taste some of their wines or beers with your food. But they also offer to taste their wines before you buy them. Not sure if that goes for all of them. I was a bit in heaven in the shop. Not often that I have seen such a very good selection and variety from around the world in Ireland before I think. I'll definitely will be back. The price for the wines ranged from 9.95 to at least 50.00 - I didn't check all the prices.

Smyth's bar is a quirky bar with a long and narrow bar and lounge where loads of beer and other memorabilia adorn the various nooks and crannies. They pour a very creamy pint of Guinness, which only has a couple of yards to travel from their kegs to the lines. They also pour local craft beers, and have a very wide range available. But perhaps the best bit is the Beer Garden, it is the best kept secret of this pub (until now). It is an oasis in the middle of a bustling town. A perfect retreat on a sunny day. There is also pool and darts for those who love their traditional pub games. There is often musicians strumming away to add to the laid back vibe of the place. Are you the designated driver? Well lucky for you their is a very well stocked off licence there too for you to pick up some of your favourite drinks to enjoy at home. Sadly they don't take card payments, but there is a BOI Atm right next to the front door.

Loose Cannon is a small but quaint natural wine shop right in the middle of the action in Dublin…read more It's located next to George's Street Arcade which is like a big hall with a bunch of vendors, making this the perfect place to stop before or after doing some shopping/sightseeing. As others have commented, this place is small and has limited seating inside. There's also a few tables located outside on the street and in the open air market of George's Street Arcade. I got lucky and snagged a seat as another party was leaving. It's first come first serve seating so I imagine, with a bigger party, it may be hard to grab a seat. One of the staff members helped me pick out a glass of wine that was PERFECT for me. He asked me what flavor profile I liked and picked out a beautiful effervescent, juicy, red. I also ordered a ham and cheese toastie which was the perfect snack to hold me over before dinner and the two paired well together. This place is definitely trendy and hip so the prices reflect that but I think it's worth the visit.

Aesthetically speaking, this place is small but incredibly cute and great for people watching…read more There's a good wine selection but I did find the prices by glass a bit expensive for the amount of wine you get.

You will notice they are all italian which gave me an even more confident my coffee would be amazing. #2: Vegan option: I'm not vegan but they have great vegan option for vegans. But the non-vegan options were delicious as well. The croissant I ordered was buttery, and flaky. The strawberry jam tastes like home made without any added sugar. #3: Affordability: Compared to Dublin, this place is a steal. Finally: A++ go get your coffee and food so you can go walk around Bray or even hike up that mountain.

It only holds about 15 people. But the food, coffee, and service is about as good as it gets. These people are passionate about what they do. I come specifically for the awesome vegan Caravaggio sandwich (on ciabatta). Everything is freshly made by them and unlike anything you will get anywhere else. Except maybe Italy! There are usually lots of Italian customers there, speaking Italian. This is a very good sign. The place is full of interesting old books people are free to browse. A quirk is an underlying 'cat' theme. Quotes and pictures about cats all over. Hand drawn images of cats by customers also adorn the walks, as to Italian record albums. I come way out of my way to come here regularly and will continue to as long as possible. Note: their fabulous bread selection comes fresh daily from the Firehouse bakery in Delgany.
