Very kid baristas and cute interior. I will say, it can get quite busy, but the line moved pretty fast. I wouldn't count on finding a seat on a weekend, but you're guaranteed to get your coffee quickly. Will be recommending to anyone I know visiting Dublin.

The staff was quick but not very attentive. Maybe it was the day of the week, but if in the area I highly recommend.

Best flat white in Dublin city centre, hands down. I stopped into Shoe Lane Coffee on Tara Street…read moreand the coffee was seriously good smooth, strong, and properly balanced. You can tell they actually care about the beans and calibration, not just blasting out caffeine to half-awake commuters. The atmosphere is what makes the place though. Busy in a good way, great music, warm lighting, and the staff somehow stay friendly even during the morning rush. Had a brownie with the coffee and it was unreal.

Three lovely baristas took my order and while I was disappointed that there wasn't a toastie or other hot breakfast available, I made do with a massive pain au chocolat. The flat white that was made to order was perfection. Rich, creamy and enough caffeine to get me to my AirBNB after a Transatlantic red-eye. And delicious. I sat with my breakfast looking out the shop's front window for a bit, watching the pedestrians and buses go by before heading to the train station.

Plus I appreciate that they can also make it just as delicious with decaffeinated beans for my afternoon visits. However, based on observation, their cappuccino is most popular.

Came here for coffee on a Saturday morning. This review is only for coffee as I didn't try any of…read morethe sweet treats on offer so leaving the five stars for a return visit to try something out. Newly opened. Like how the place is decorated. They're serving 3FE coffee here. The staff were really pleasant and they seem to actually care about what their clients think about the coffee! I heard them ask everyone what they thought as they were leaving. I liked that. I had two coffees to pass the time. First I went for the house blend black coffee and then I had a single origin espresso so I can't comment on their latte art skills but if you check out their social media you can find out yourself :) The coffees are served on a wooden board that has a magnet in it so the spoon is presented at an angle. All told this is an awesome place and a great addition to Aungier Street.

So much food to try! So many options! I'm glad we only found the Bald Barista on our second-to-last morning in Dublin. The lattes were delicious, no doubt, but a med-low bar imho. What got me were the absolutely perfectly cooked scrambled eggs. By far the best eggs I've ever had at a restaurant. Service was lovely, everyone was super nice. The place was clean (even the loo), and I loved all the coffee kitsch (knick-knacks) on shelves around the place.

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!
