Get in my belly cheese steak
Emily C.

Ok so, we know the basics already: - The food is exceptional. Those sandwiches. They are so. Freaking. Good. Amazing ingredients, perfectly cooked, classic and unusual combinations, and they're just the right size. Goldilocks sambos if you will. - It's arguably the first 'hipster' or 'cooler' spot to open up around the Parnell St area, and is a welcome addition at that. What I didn't realise is that it's chock full of friendly, good-mood inducing staff. We were greeted by each of them as we came in, but before you think it, not in an inane brainwashed Abercrombie & Fitch type way..! They all look as if they genuinely love to work there, and the atmosphere created by them is infectious. If I owned a sandwich shop, this is what I'd want it to look like, and these are the staff I'd want to be in it. This will without a doubt be a regular haunt for me from now on. Gwan the 147.

Soup and Sandwich special at 147 Deli
Mary C.

This is a much-neglected part of town, so I was delighted to hear, via Lovin Dublin, about this hot, new sandwich bar. On the day I called, it was busy, but I got a seat easily after claiming my order of the 'Any sandwich and a soup' for €7.50. The soup was *gorgeous* - mushroom with a garlic and parsley oil drizzle. The portion wasn't huge - but the size perfectly complemented the large Roast Beef sandwich with Rocket, Red Onion and Parmesan I had alongside. Truly delicious. The deli has a nice, bustling atmosphere, and the staff were friendly and helpful. I'll definitely be back!

Signage!

The sandwiches here are amazing. So far I've tried the bbq pulled pork and the 147 steak. The pork oozed everywhere but so what? That's what napkins are for!! Oh and as for the 147 steak.. It wouldn't be out of place in an NYC deli. The sandwiches are so fresh and just nom! You can tell that time is spent on the prep and they certainly getting the best flavour out of the ingredients.. Yes this hipster place isn't exactly in the nicest part of town but please don't let this put you off trying here you're looking for somewhere to grab a great sandwich!!

What a great deli place in the North City Centre! Slightly off my hunting ground but well worth the extra 10min walk. Friendly staff, cool artwork and what am I forgetting....? Oh yes of course: the sandwiches! Yum, yum, yum. First of all, it was hard to choose. Everything sounded equally as nice as the next one on the menu so I picked the one that I was least likely to make myself at home: the Reuben. Oh, you should try it. The dark rye bread brought back childhood memories (in a good way), it was nicely toasted and filled to almost burger size with all things Reuben like pastrami and sauerkraut. Very very delish indeed!

Meatball sub!!

I'm not sure what Parnell Street was originally known for, but nowadays it's Asian Restaurants and bus stops. Thankfully this little GEM breaks that mould. All the food is fresh and what's on offer is constantly changing. Meaning you can go loads and loads and never be bored! Thankfully they keep the favourites on a set menu though, so you can revisit them when the time calls for a meatball sub! Atmosphere at lunch time is especially nice, buzzy but not crazy busy. Plenty of seats and excellent music round this spot off nicely.

Such friggin' good coffee!!
Geraldine C.

Today I finally popped my 147Deli cherry, and I can safely say that am in cafe-love. The combination of orgasmic toasted sandwiches, oh-so-smooth coffee, friendly staff and student-friendly prices is enough to send me speed walking right back over there again just thinking about it.. I challenge someone to go there and not experience their taste buds dancing for joy.

Pulled pork
Alexandra K.

The NYTimes did an article about sandwiches in Dublin fairly recently. 147 Deli was one of the restaurants mentioned in the article, specifically for their pulled pork sandwiches. I found myself famished and just a few minutes away from 147 Deli after ending a 1916 Rising tour at the Garden of Remembrance so I decided to give the pulled pork a try. I am definitely happy I did! Wow - what a great sandwich and at a fantastic price. I had a hard time sticking to the pulled pork as my choice because so many of the other options sounded good, too. The bread was outstanding and packed to the brim with flavorful pork and tangy slaw. Even though it was huge I would have gladly taken down another.

The rare thin sliced steak sandwich. Get it lightly toasted. Perfect.
Diarmuid C.

Moved it up to a 5. Great sambo's good honest coffee. Price is acceptable, staff are great and friendly. Get the rare steak lightly toasted...

Juan R.

I can say the coffee is great, I sure will come back for all those good-looking sandwiches. The staff is very nice!

The juice bar.. but I'm here for their pulled pork sandwich

Awesome sandwiches and great coffee. Still don't get how a Reuben can have corned beef in it though.

After dancing the night away, we were hungry. Couldn't find anything open, so we decided to hit up Spar for some food. Our initial stop here was just to get some provisions such as red bull, water, etc. The second stop was for the drunken eats. Luckily they have a fair amount of ready to eat food. We grabbed some sandwiches - Chicken & Egg Cub, Chicken & Pepper Sandwich. Also, got some chips - Guiness and Flame Grilled Steak. The chips were something I never tried before. It wasn't bad at all. Beer and meat chips, who knew? I have no idea how much we spent here since the hubs took care of everything and I forgot to get a pic of the receipt. But we were staying in the area, so convenient for provisions and late night eats. REVIEW #4112

Spar is similar to Tesco and M&S, but slightly more expensive (and not really worth the…read moredifference). However, whenever I travel internationally, I always look forward to trying new snacks that are not available in the United States. So I did find some Doritos flavors at Spar that i hadn't seen anywhere else during my time in Dublin. It's a fully stocked store with an array of items from chips, candy, and cookies to an assortment of grab&go sandwiches and instant ramen. This location is nestled on the corner of a busy, crowded street. No self-checkout. You have to pay at the register. The customer service was a bit lackluster.

You can find amazing things there that you have not seen before if you are not from Ireland. The cafe is so cute. It has all sorts of paintings and posters on the walls, all positive and sweet. The outside is wonderful and this place is super clean. The food in the cafe is great. Have a sandwich or a slice of cake (if they have any that day). All of it is great. The people that own and work at Bang Bang are kind and sweet and are such a reminder of why we all love Ireland.

The brunch burger in particular is a thing of beauty. There's a small amount of seating inside and a couple of benches out front, which are a great spot for chilling out on one of our rare sunny days. One thing Phibsborough has been lacking was a quality coffee shop and deli, and Bang Bang has definitely stepped up to fill that gap. Ive no doubt I'll find myself spending all my pocket money here in the time to come.
