    Creamy lattes
    Michelle M.

    My favourite coffee spot in Dublin! Creamy lattes in a gorgeous cup that I never want to throw out. They have a coffee grinder at the back so you can grind any coffee beans you buy to your own taste. I haven't tried any of the food but it looks good and it's worth coming for the coffee alone! A good location for a nice walk by the sea with your coffee too.

    Had an Amazing coffee here this morning and such a cool place! Had a lovely cappuccino! Perfect thing to start your day, I highly recommend it if your in the Blackrock village. It's far nicer than your big chains "insomnias" and "Starbucks"... It's real coffee

    "enjoy your daily grind."

    Great spot to pick up a coffee to go, or sit and have something sweet too ;-) I just got a takeaway coffee, but the quality was excellent. The layout of the cafe/store is really cool, there are shelves with nice little bars and snack and a few other unusual items. There isn't much seating and it isn't really the type of place you'd hang around for a long time. But, overall I really liked it.

    Amazing coffee! I visit here at least once a week - usually the Saturday or Sunday morning coffee run/fix! This little coffee shop in Blackrock is up there with there with the big players like 3fe, Joe's etc. The coffee is consistently good which is exactly what you want from your coffee shop. Staff are knowledgeable and always friendly... They have a nice selection of sambos, soups and breads on offer too. (I find the banana bread a little dry, but thats just my personal preference). As with most Professional Barista Coffee Shops you can purchase the beans they uses and any coffee making accessories you might need to prefect the perfect cup at home! All in all, this little spot is amazing!

    I discovered this place today and It's great! Love the urban interior design. It's not a big place but it's more of a coffee stop with some counter space to sit at. The coffee is pretty good. I'll have to go back again ;)

    Excellent coffee! The banana bread didn't taste like banana, but the service was excellent and the coffee was great! I ended up here through a post someone had written regarding taking the DART to the different stops near the coast. Excellent choice!

    Really great cafe, the place looks fantastic has steel re-bar decorating the whole lenght of the wall which sounds odd but looks great an ready trendy. the staff were all lovely, from listening to the Barista's idle chat with one of the girls that worked there i could pick up that he really knew what he was talking about. coffee really was good and the place is full of coffee toys and gadgets,would be great if one opened in the city center I really think they would be missing a trick if they dont. only negative thing o would say i that there is not alot of space to sit in and have a coffee and all the seats are at high counters (not so comfy) although it looks like they have done the best they can with the space they have.

    Beautiful, if small, place in Blackrock. An absolut gem that is worth the trip from Dublin city centre (bus 7 will do the trick). Coffee is superb, sweets are amazing and the whole look and feel of the place is great. Would love to have one of these Bears in O'Connell St! If you come here, you MUST visit the market right next door, more gems in there :)

    Love the coffee here... Consistent great coffee, yummy treats and a display of coffee accessories, local irish produce... Served with a smile from the friendly staff

    Delicious foods

    This cafe is always many customers. I ordered flat white and almond croissant. The flat white was good taste, and almond croissant was very good taste! It wad a flakiness of outside, and inside included custard. It's not too sweet. I liked it! I'll definitely buy an almond croissant if I go to there again ;)

    Amazing selection of goodies to behold
    Sarah P.

    Love love love this place. Great coffee and yummy treats, its like coffee shop heaven. And just a few minutes from the sea as well. Nothing better on a nice day to grab a take out from here and go for a little stroll along the promenade

    Takeaway!

    We happened upon The Natural Bakery while wandering around the Stillorgan Village Centre and while…read morewe were initially just window shopping, those pastries and cookies looked too good to pass up...so inside we went! The space is simple with one side of the store lined with pastry and dessert cases where all the goods are held and served from. The rest of the space is seating and shelving for other packaged products. At the back there is a couple of windows giving you a view into the kitchen where the magic happens. Our visit here was between breakfast and lunch, so we grabbed a pear and apple tart to share. The tart was divine! The tart crust was flaky, yet sturdy while the filling was perfect consistency and featured the right amount of fruit. The cream on the side added a bit of texture and sweetness with each bite. Service was friendly and helpful from entry to exit. The space was well kept and clean. The staff was actively cleaning tables between guests. Overall, solid find in the Stillorgan Village Centre!

It makes me sound like an intrepid explorer, bravely overcoming all the elements and impossible climbs the Stillorgan shopping centre and mother nature can throw at me, but in truth, it is a little less dramatic. OK, a lot less, I parked the car and walked in to baked good heaven, my pictures do not do it justice. There is any amount of fresh breads, a little island in the middle with bakers decorating cakes and such an array of cakes, buns, éclairs and tarts that I could barely bring myself to make a choice. I settled for a cream filled doughnut, it was spectacular, huge and only 2 euro. Q wobbles out of shop, in a penguin like manner shouting "I'll be back!" to anyone who will listen. Children start crying. Q's belt starts crying. .

Because every single thing about it is nice. The food, the service, the fact that it hasn't turned into a big shop selling crap and has rather stayed as a small shop selling good things. It is a shop that allows for buyers remorse only in the sense that you wished you'd bought more. I realise at this point that I should probably talk about the food but frankly that's been already so I won't bother. What I will say is that they have the best, most incredibly phenomenal chocolate brownies that the world has ever known. Also the coffee they sell is good stuff too! On another note the staff are perfectly wonderful. They are friendly, they are helpful and they actually seem to enjoy working there. Having said that, if I got to sit with chocolate brownies all day I'm fairly sure I'd enjoy it too :) You might wonder why I only gave 4 stars. The answer is that they don't appear to do macaroons any more, or at least they didn't the last time I went in. A small thing but a thing nonetheless.

If you're dining in, you order at the counter and get a table number to place wherever you decide to sit. There's plenty of seating inside which is a plus. What I got: -Potato danish- savory; slight salty, crispy flakey layers. -Sausage roll- slightly salty for my preference, but has a very crispy crust and a meaty sausage in the middle. We went back a second time on our trip and got a few more pastries, all of which were very delicious. The pastries were hot, flakey, glistening, delicate, and perfectly sweet on both visits. I would definitely come back if I were to visit Dublin again.

I didn't wait more than 5/10 minutes. I grabbed a couple of different things for us to try -- the focaccia, morning bun, salted caramel roll, and the cinnamon roll. My favorite was easily the focaccia, which could compete with the best I had in Italy -- so good. The morning bun was good, but nothing crazy exciting. The salted caramel roll had to be the least caramel-y caramel roll I've ever had, but it didn't taste bad and the salted part was interesting (in a good way!). The Cinnamon roll was unique, which I appreciate. It had a big glob of cream cheese frosting (too much for me, but I imagine it would float a lot of folks' boats) and some orange flavoring! I quite liked the orange. I wanted to get a matcha to go, but they said they didn't have disposable cups. You could buy a 5 euro reusable one and then if you brought it back you'd get a refund... interesting, but I was leaving that day and wouldn't be back in the area. I can't speak to the ambiance because we were in and out, but it looked like they had a decent amount of space. All in all, I would recommend this place! For me it was a 4, but I'm sure for some it would bop up to a 5.
