All the vendors are super friendly and love to make conversation! Great way to spend a morning! The ambiance is very quaint and friendly! Overall a great atmosphere and way to buy. Will come here for certain vegetables and lunch when I'm in the city

    Thank you for the recommendation, Fodor's! (yes, I bought their travel guide like a true tourist.)…read more My friends and I wanted to try some Ireland oysters because we heard they were supposedly super fresh. We were running out of time on our hunt to find them when I realized, 'I've got my trusty guidebook!!' And that's how we ended up here. It was 12 Euros for 6 oysters and a glass of wine. Since there were four of us, the lady was nice enough to give us 4 cups of wine (yes, plastic cups - it's a farmer's market, what do you expect!) They even threw in an extra oyster! SO FRESH! SO BIG! (cue that's-what-she-said joke). Compared to NYC oysters, these babies looked like they were on steroids! They also have this dipping sauce (had onions and was really vinegar-y, but good. But if you don't like the sour, you should just take the oyster straight.) Didn't eat anything else from other stands because we just had lunch. However, I believe they had shish kebabs, crepes, and bread. Oh and FYI - Sheridans Cheesemongers was there (saw this place on Anthony Bourdain when he went to Dublin so thought this might be worth mentioning). Definitely check out this farmer's market!

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.

    I don't know where to start with Fothergills. We were fortunate to stay in one of the apartment…read morerooms above the cafe and were welcomed to a complimentary coffee and pastry for breakfast during our stay. The cafe is super cute; one side is more of a restaurant scene with tables, menu, and waitresses and waiters on hand. The other side is more of grabbing something quick to eat and/or drink. I've tried the raspberry muffin. It was so fresh and good words cannot even describe it. I'm more of a blueberry muffin person but being that was not an option at the time I chose raspberry and I did not regret it. My fiancé and I also tried the Irish breakfast (I posted a pic and noted what it consisted of). So awesome! A hearty breakfast was a great way to start a day of exploring in Dublin. The next day, I tried the croissant and scone. They pretty much melted in my mouth. As you walk in the cafe, you could smell how fresh everything was. Anyway, we had planned to drive to the Cliffs of Moher that day and decided to get a couple of sandwiches and saw they had a variety of choices to choose from. I ended up creating my own sandwich; it was super delicious! Even when we ate it hours later, it was still good. We tried the Irish cheese and onion chips and it blew my mind. It's similar to the sour cream and onion here in the states but a hundred times better. I found myself looking for more onion and cheese chips during my stay in Ireland. The cafe started open later than other cafes I'm used to but we never made it back in time. With good prices and great food we probably would have eaten breakfast, lunch, and dinner there. I would definitely visit this place again if I ever get the opportunity to return to Dublin. It made our visit a truly remarkable one.

Yes, this is the enemy of the short fat and balding male rapidly reaching middle age, it is Fothergills, a shop filled with everything from a frankly obscene selection of the most appetising pastries known to man - including those squares of short bread covered with caramel and topped with chocolate.... Excuse me... I need a moment alone... Ahem... cakes... they do cakes as well and jam - I took pictures of the jam shelf, just to show you they take this sort of thing seriously... and quite right too.

    There's more than a few butchers to pick from on Moore Street, but with FX Buckley's on the corner,…read morethere seems to be just one choice. Bigger, well stocked and thriving, FX Buckley's on Moore street is one of the last old timers still open in this traditional green market street. Just off Henry street and taking up three huge shop fronts Buckley's is cornering the market on speciality, traditional and every day meats. There's rashers and loops of pudding, sides of beef and shoulders of lamb. Over the summer I was a religious weekly visitor, snapping up their chicken fillet deal of 10 for €9.99 (while steering well clear of that case of tripe, livers and hearts). Things can get busy during the day so expect to queue for a few minutes while the missus ahead of you gets her week's order of steak mince. As in any good butchers, the white-coated professionals here are happy to dispense a bit of butcherly advice on cooking your purchase or if it's right for the recipe you're planning on!

Our server was attentive and was able to make some good recommendations for food and drinks. Drinks, starters, and entrees arrived in timely order as expected. We ordered some bottles of wine to enjoy with our meal. Everyone enjoyed their entree and shared some tasting samples with each other. The star of the night was the Cod entree that was perfectly cooked and had the most delicious sauce. The plate was completely clean at the end.

The Swan Centre location is convenient and Fallon & Byrne appealed to me since it is open later than most, if not all, the other businesses there. The set-up is very inviting - fresh baked bread at the entrance, coffee/breakfast bar in sight, gorgeous, fresh fruit and veggies, a great selection of cheese, and prepared gourmet dishes - all of which can be taken home or eaten on site in the comfortable seating area in the back. I ventured in for a later than usual bite one evening and talked with a very friendly employee that gave me her recommendation for a wine/cheese pairing which came with brown bread, cheddar and a jam. I am not sure if it was because it was late and the bread had been out all day but it was disappointingly dry. And while I am a fan of different types of jam/cheese combinations, this jam tasted terrible and was inedible. Both the cheddar and Cabernet Sauvignon were quite tasty and saved the day. For what I had, I felt the pricing was too high. But I wouldn't be opposed to trying other dishes there the next time I am in town to give it another chance.

I was at the blues stage were seeing an old woman being over taken by power walking younger folks whilst they listened to their i-pods lost in themselves and their outward image made me really sad. It actually brought a frog to my throat & made me slightly teary - yes it did. I started thinking about how impersonal people these days can be; yup I was in a rut. Because I have no friends I could not dial for a hug, and because hugging yourself is a rather futile action I decided to lift my melancholy with some tea. I got some mint infused tea, to give me more of a spring in my step. And to really treat myself I got the orange and coconut combination which is as delicious as it sounds. The layout of Listons makes me happy, it's warm and the staff are helpful & when you are feeling under the weather you can never ever underestimate the power of a stranger's smile.
