Steak was decent for a midweek dinner, and the tiramisu rounded it off nicely. The seating area felt a bit cramped though, like the tables were too close together. Not a huge deal, but I noticed it. Wouldn&#39;t mind going back if I&#39;m in the area, just maybe on a quieter night.

Tiny spot, gets a bit hectic at lunch rush. But that dulce de leche latte is worth squeezing in for. Quick in and out if you know what you want.

Been coming here for a while now, and the full Irish breakfast never lets me down. Proper portion, decent sausages, and the coffee is always spot on. Place gets busy enough at weekends, but that&#39;s a good sign I suppose. Still my go-to for a lazy brunch when I can&#39;t be bothered cooking.

The French toast and brunch wrap were spot on this time&mdash;eggs soft, salmon a nice touch. Owner even threw in a free brunch after our last chat. Proper care for customers.

Grabbed a chicken fillet roll here at lunch. Meat was proper juicy, not dry at all. Fried pickles on the side were crispy, exactly what I needed. Service was quick, in and out in ten minutes. Solid spot if you&#39;re in a rush and want something decent.

Stopped in for coffee and a slice of cake&mdash;the place itself is the real reason to go. Building&#39;s been here for centuries and they&#39;ve kept it lovely. Coffee was decent, nothing wild, but the staff knew the history and were happy to chat about it. Worth a look if you&#39;re passing through.

Solid feed for the price, the full Irish was decent and the coffee came quick. Portion was big enough that I skipped lunch after. Wouldn&#39;t say it&#39;s fancy, but it does the job.

Came here for the first time last week and honestly the service stood out more than the food. I forgot my curry sauce on the table and one of the staff actually ran after me to hand it over. That kind of thing just doesn&#39;t happen everywhere. The curry itself was decent, nothing mind-blowing, but that little touch made me want to come back. Place was busy too, so fair play to them for keeping it together.

Stopped in for a coffee and ended up staying longer than planned. Flat white was solid, and the scrambled eggs on sourdough came out hot with a decent portion. Place was busy but not chaotic. Staff let me sit without rushing me. Rathmines needed something like this.

The matcha was proper&mdash;strong without being bitter, just how I like it. They open early enough that I could grab a cup before work without rushing. Sat near the window for a bit, chairs were decently comfortable for a quick stop. Staff were sound, didn&#39;t hover. Wouldn&#39;t mind going back if I&#39;m in the area again.

Been coming here for a while now. The pizza&#39;s still decent for a pub, even if the toppings are pretty basic. Good enough for a quick bite with a pint.

Had the halloumi sandwich &mdash; crispy cheese, fresh stuff in it. Pretty good overall. Place has a nice relaxed vibe, staff were sound. Maybe a bit slow getting the bill, but no big deal. Decent spot if you&#39;re in the area.

Came in for a late breakfast on Sunday and got seated right away, which surprised me. Food was lovely, service quick, but it was loud enough that I put my headphones on just to enjoy my coffee in peace.

Tiny little place, barely any seats, but grand for grabbing something quick. Got the chicken wrap, fresh enough and the sauce was decent. Packaged well, no mess on the go. Not somewhere you&#39;d sit down for a long chat, but does the job.

The carrot cake really stood out &mdash; fresh and not overly sweet. Brownie was good too. Prices are on the higher side, but the quality matches. Courtyard seating is nice, though the garden chairs could use more cushioning.

Decent spot on South William Street. The Ethiopian cappuccino was rich and nutty, nice for a slow Saturday morning. Steps out front are good for people-watching.

The chicken wrap was proper. Loads of filling, decent fuel for the day. Solid shout if you&#39;re on a quick break.

The pistachio croissant was the standout &mdash; flaky, not too sweet. Matcha was decent too. Nice bright spot by the water, easy to sit and chill for a bit.

Great playlist and the service was spot on. Burger came out a bit small for the price, but the wine list had a few solid picks that paired well. Nice spot for a relaxed bite.

Dariusz and Maria are the real deal&mdash;proper friendly, made me feel right at home. Coffee was decent too, but the service is what I&rsquo;d come back for.

Stumbled in here on a cold afternoon and honestly didn&rsquo;t want to leave. The window seat was perfect for people-watching while I had a pot of tea and a slice of lemon cake. Place is small but really well lit, not one of those dark cramped spots. Only thing is it got a bit busy around 3pm, but still worth grabbing a seat if you can.

Stopped in for a late lunch and grabbed a seat by the window. The place is bright, plenty of room between tables. Had the grilled fish&mdash;cooked properly, flaky, no complaints. Staff were friendly without hovering. Pairing it with a crisp Sauvignon Blanc worked well, though the glass was a bit small for the price. Solid enough if you&#39;re in the area and want a relaxed bite.

Came in with a wheelchair, staff moved tables around without me even asking. That was decent. Pancakes were good, fluffy enough. Got a second plate, no regrets. Place isn&#39;t big but they made it work. Fine for a casual breakfast stop.

The build-your-own pancakes are the way to go. Got a decent stack for the price, and the toppings were spread properly through every layer, not just dumped on top. They even do a gluten-free version, which is handy. Portion was solid for what you pay. No complaints there.

Been coming here for a while now, and the coffee&#39;s still spot on. Staff actually know what they&#39;re doing, happy to chat about beans if you&#39;re into that. Nice spot to just sit by the window and watch the street. Not the cheapest, but you pay for the quality. Always leaves me sorted for the rest of the day.

Service was a bit hit or miss &mdash; one guy was lovely, another seemed like he&#39;d rather be anywhere else. Food and vibe made up for it though.

The Guinness here is genuinely good, one of the better pints I&#39;ve had in Dublin. It&#39;s a proper pub, pretty spacious and laid-back, not as cramped as some of the other spots nearby. Staff were friendly enough too.

Stopped in for a coffee and ended up staying way longer than planned. That bookshelf wall is a nice touch, gives the place a proper snug feel. Had the lemon poppy seed cake with a flat white&mdash;cake was decent, not too sweet. Would&#39;ve liked a glass of wine instead but they seemed more geared towards the coffee crowd. Solid enough spot if you&#39;re in the area.
