The €3 takeaway option is a good value for money, small (veg) soup or salad, two small pieces of bread and a small piece of fruit, but it's not very filling. They also have €7 salads that I've purchased several times but they're getting smaller by the day. The takeaway box has shrunk and now the new box isn't even being filled. A bit disappointing to pay so much for a salad and not being able to fill up on it. On a side note, the lemon and raspberry squares are tasty.

The eggs were light and fluffy, the cheese was soft and smoky, and the sourdough bread was chewy but also toasty. The sandwich was quite big. I wasn't sure I would finish it, but quickly did after the first bite. The hours at this cafe are variable. They do not have a website listing the hours, and Google and Yelp cannot consistently keep up with their hours as they change on a whim. Currently, the hours listed on their board says Monday-Friday 8:30AM-3:00PM, but it was not open this past Monday when I walked by. They serve breakfast from 8:30AM-10:30AM and lunch 12PM-3:00PM. It's probably best to call first to see if they are open. Hope this helps!

The counter is laden with apple pies and muffins, fresh flakey croissants with the gooey almond filling, and giant chocolate chip cookies that are chewy in the middle.

They make to order if you want something particular, a giant cake for a special occasion for example. The prices are quite high, but the ingredients and recipes are top quality.

Simply superb, one of the best meals I've had in Dublin in a long, long time. Cocktails all round as we were celebrating a birthday. As you do. The highlight, however, had to be the Delmonico steak for 2 which two hungry men shared and devoured with satisfaction. Our companions both opted for the cod which as equally good. The starters were sublime, an explosion of taste, imagination and sumptuousness. Be warned, though, the menu is short with only 4 choices for mains. But they'll get there. Can't wait to go back. It's not cheap so is very much a special occasion destination. Is 'Tuesday' a special occasion? Asking for a friend.
