If I still lived in Celbridge, this is definitely somewhere I'd be frequenting a lot more.. eh.. frequently..!!! Or maybe it's the lack of online presence?! I can't find anything about the cafe on the Castletown House website for example?! Why?! So here's what ye do. Go for a whopper walk up along the river, go over to the obelisk and imagine what it would have been like to have been hanging out with the Connolys and Johnathan Swifts and the likes, get a bitta wind in your hair, then get yourself over into the Courtyard Cafe in the grounds of the wonderful Castletown House, and get the warmth back in you. Get a nice sambo or hot meal and a lovingly made hot chocolate and cake to finish. You'll walk home with a spring in your step, guaranteed.

I can't put into words how good the coffee is, in the same league as 3FE or Fixx. I suppose the only downside is the size, there's only about ten seats in the place. On the other hand, there's nothing like having your coffee under the watchful eyes of Omar Little and Walter White!

When you think of coffee in Ireland, most people think of Coffee Angel, 3FE, Roasted Brown and…read moreother chains. Yet, just outside Dublin, is this gem. Now called Atlas Unit 1 and run by Adam, this is one of the finest coffee shops I've ever visited. A wonderful aroma of the coffee hits you when you open the door. Adam loves to talk coffee and his passion is infectious. He also sources his cakes from the genius that is Wildflour Bakery. Soups and sandwiches are also of the highest quality. Brilliant.

Good coffee, great cakes and bakes which are very inexpensive compared to the likes of what you'd get in Costa or Starbucks, which are both a stones throw from the location of Ground, upstairs in the Next store. I would definitely come back here, there's loads of space and an abundance of tables to sit at and park your buggy if you have kids in tow. Also good kids play area in the corner to keep your little terrors amused while you top up your caffeine levels. Good toilets and baby change facilities also, if you require such facilities! Overall, I'd recommend it so check it out and tell me what you think.

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.

Bagel was just OK. Scone was really good but banana bread was not as good as Starbucks. People were extremely nice. Water was in a pitcher, lemon infused, and very cold.

So Tillies makes me very sad, but also very happy! It seems the masses of Clontarf do be in and out of here all day and everyone is really friendly. I was here recently for a chin-wag with an old friend and we enjoyed our 90 minutes or so in the bright, bustling surroundings. We each had a cappuccino and a scone. The cappuccino was decent. Not too milky - just how like it. The scone was a wee bit dry but good all the same, served with cream and jam -my favourite! The staff were lovely, very friendly having chats with customers (everybody knows everybody so of course they are!) and just being generally smiley, which makes the cafe quite cheerful.

I think not only did we enjoy their food, but we also enjoy their incredibly friendly service. It is located in front of Kilmainham Gaol, so it is a good place to stop after visiting the infamous jail. Anyways, the scrambled eggs, bacon & toast and the honey ham sandwich were my favorite items. Every morning I got an espresso shot. Their coffee is Fairtrade and Rain Forest Alliance Certified.  5 stars. Highly recommended. Try one of their cookies.

I got there right at 8am (at opening), and they only took about 5-7 minutes to get my order ready. And pretty much right at opening, a line starts forming. That's pretty much a good tell tale sign that this is a good cafe. Will visit again the next time I'm in Dublin since it's right next to the hotel I stay at. Oh... and free wifi.

Open early so if you're struggling to find a place, this is it. The Irish breakfast hits the spot - the buttery toast was heavenly and the blood sausage was my favorite part - hearty and delicious. It also came with sausage, sunny side up egg, sweet beans and ham. The service is like none other from the minute you walk in, you feel like you're at an old friends place and as you leave, they give you recommendations and a list of local bars and hangouts that Irish people love. When I go back to Dublin, I'm definitely going back here for breakfast.

Had read a lot of good things about this spot and it was close to our hotel, so we decided to drop by. It was a little sprinkly that day, but they do have an awning outside. We were sat at a table at the end since they were all full inside. The menu is pretty small and basic. I read the irish breakfast was the thing to get here. Reading all the reviews, I actually expected it to be bigger. Seemed like a normal size plate to me. My omelet was good. A nice amount of filling. The irish coffee was okay. Too sweet and creamy for my taste tho. I am more of a black coffee girl. Simple spot. I only had one chance to go out for breakfast during this trip and found myself wishing I picked another spot that was more comfy and maybe had some more options. In all, A-OK. REVIEW #4110
