It was pouring rain. The cafe had technically not yet opened, but they saw us 5 weary travelers and let us come on in. Got us coffees and teas and soon thereafter a great hearty breakfast. It was like a culinary hug!! Just go there. Personally I loved the eggs Benedict!! Thanks for the hospitality, Lemon Jelly!! read more

Ate at Lemon Jelly for breakfast this morning. My wife had a Brekkie and I had a feta, spinach and avocado omelette. My omelette was good but had mostly spinach's and I was playing peek-a-boo with the avocado. Also had an Americano coffee that was very robust. My wife enjoyed her Brekkie which was a crepe with bacon and cheese. The restaurant had a brief wait but once inside the service was very efficient. I would recommend it for travelers visiting Dublin. read more

Busy cafe but we're able to be seated right away. Food was very good! And the iced tiramisu was delicious! Food came quickly after being seated, however, it does take a minute for them to come to the table but that's something I've noticed in most restaurants in Europe. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. read more

This is a cute but busy little cafe, though they manage the crowds exceptionally well. I order an apple juice that was fresh juice and ended up making me sick (that is a me problem not the cafe's) and the 'brekkie' crepe which was as delicious as it was huge. The only negate would be that the server seemed annoyed to be there. read more

I had my first Full Irish Breakfast here! It was actually so delicious. I don't usually love sausage, and nevertheless all the components were very tasty. My favorite parts were the sausages, bacon, and blood sausage. The tomato and bacon provided good balance of flavor to the plate as a whole. I paired it with a tea. read more

Seems like most restaurants here in Dublin have the same thing. Trying to find a good breakfast and not having the best luck. This place was just okay, nothing special. The avocado toast was just bread with an avocado spread not fresh. We had to wait a while for our food and restaurant was rather hallow. Fresh juices were the best part. My husband had the omelette and it was not cook well, cheese was not even melted. He said his toast was stale. I had the French toast and it was just okay, nothing to brag about. No favor really. Very crowded which is why we thought to try this place. Maybe we are just picky but I feel you should enjoy a meal especially something simple as breakfast. Staff seemed to very nice. read more

I just arrived in Dublin for my second visit in the last year. My flight arrives at 5 AM and after dropping my luggage off at my hotel and walking around until 7 AM, I made my way over to this café. I had breakfast twice here last year, but realized that I hadn't left a review. Last year, I had the monkey business crêpe and an avocado toast. I enjoyed both very much. Today, I ordered the nutmeg cappuccino and a ham and cheese croissant. The service here during my three visits has been extremely friendly and welcoming. It is not rushed, and right now I am just sitting in the outdoor area reading my book because it's still pretty early. The indoor is pretty spacious and there are many tables outside. It is located in an alleyway where only pedestrians walk-through; no cars pass. A friend of mine came to Dublin in June and I recommended this café for breakfast. I'll be seeing her soon and I'm looking forward to hearing what she thought of it. The menu is pretty varied and there are many options. The prices are reasonable. read more

Pleasant staff and good breakfast at Lemon Jelly Cafe. Not so much service after they deliver your food, so don't expect refills or anything else. The ambiance was bustling with a line 10 deep, nice decor and plenty of seating indoors and out. Today we had the sun-dried tomato, mozzarella and pesto omelette which was amazing 5/5 and the Henry crepe with chicken, melted cheddar cheese and baby spinach 4/4. Overall a good quick breakfast. Plenty of other menu options to choose from as well. read more

We came here for breakfast at 11:30am on a Saturday and waited in about a 10-15 minute line before getting a table. I ordered the mini breakfast, which was really good. Overall, the place is very cute and service was quick and attentive. I would recommend stopping here for a bite to eat in the morning! read more

lemon jelly is a very popular place it seems, as there was a line out the door in the rain when i went. we were a party of two, and got seated about 5 minutes after we arrived (ahead of other larger parties so keep that in mind). they served complementary water. i ordered the lemon zest crepe and my partner ordered an omelette. the crepe was exactly as expected; light and refreshing with the lemon. the omelette was MASSIVE and served with toast and high quality butter. this place is really busy, so don't expect too much attention or refills after you receive your food. the service was polite and they didn't rush us out. read more

Considered on many lists to be the best breakfast in Dublin, I would say that it is pretty dang awesome. Arriving at brunch time on Monday morning in a light drizzle, you can expect to wait. The queue moves, but not quickly. They do not push people to leave here at all. A latte and a flat white for breakfast. They took about 15 minutes to be prepared while I watched the crowds in the rain through the window. The flat white was excellent - perfect cup of coffee. The omelet was very good and the toast was good. You can dawdle but it's not encouraged. And you're definitely not setting up a laptop if there's a queue. Enjoy your breakfast and move on.

Place sounded appetizing and had decent reviews, so we decided to pop in for a late breakfast. I ordered the Brekke crepe. When I think of a crepe, I think of it as thin and delicate, soft and moist enough to put a fork through. The crepe I had was thick and more like a sandwich wrap. I looked around and saw other crepes that looked exactly the same. Thick and dry. Almost tough. Therefore I would never order a crepe from here again. Apologies for showing a picture of the half eaten thing, but I felt compelled to take the pic for the record. In my pic you only see a crepe because that it, no extra effort at presentation...no garish, not a piece of fruit, nothing but the plate with a thick "crepe" folder in quarters. The inside of the "wrap/crepe" had next to nothing too. Prior to the pic I had already eaten the ONE over easy egg that was inside. I scrapped it out to eat separately, because I wasn't gonna waste calories eating on a tasteless "wrap", with the pathetic "cheese" they squeezed in there. It just wasn't appetizing. I did enjoy the cappuccino. The smoothy I ordered, called the Energy Injection, was supposed to be "banana, strawberry, orange juice and honey, mixed with a low fat frozen yogurt".....It tasted like just all strawberry, didn't taste the banana, honey or OJ. It's great if you're a strawberry super fan, not so great if you are not and were expecting more flavors. We were initially seated right by door. It was a chilly morning. The hostess guy, when he grabbed people from the outside queue to seat people, kept leaving the door wide open. No regard for the wind coming in on inside guest. We did see another hostess talking to people in the queue outside and seating people. She thoughtfully and carefully kept the door slightly closed. Not the dude. Prior to our food coming out - and after a few spots opened up and no one was left in queue, we asked to moved to another table. To their credit they did accommodate our request. Our waiter was nice. He was busy and hardly came by, but when he delivered the food & drinks and when we flagged him down to ask if we could get the check, he was always pleasant. read more

A common theme for my Dublin adventures: everyone was super friendly, even at Lemon Jelly. We walked in and were seated immediately. Ordered 2 vegetarian breakfasts, a regular coffee and an orange mocha. To be fair, there was a bit of a confusion and I was given a regular mocha but can't complain overall. The Irish Vegetarian was good! Eggs perfectly cooked. Hash brown crisp and salty. The star of the show was the mushrooms though. Obscenely savory, I'm not sure what they did to them but I was addicted. The mocha I ordered was not too sweet with a bitter edge (which I enjoy). It kept me full for hours on end. Well worth the price! read more

This was our first food stop after getting settled in Dublin at 0630. We all had breakfast, then for breakfast desert we shared crepes. We ordered everything at the same time, but they waited to make the crepes until we were done eating our breakfast dishes - which included avocado toast and 3 omelets. When they served the crepes, they split them in half for us to share. The food was all really, really good! And the service was amazing - our waiter even helped us understand the standards of eating out, paying, and tipping in Ireland - we had no idea! Great place! :) read more

After a day of exploring Dublin, my friend and I woke up hungry. A large americano and a Full Irish Breakfast is exactly what I needed! Lemon Jelly has comfy diner vibes, and it's popular (I'm glad we got there early, when we were leaving, there was a wait for a table)! The Full Irish was great as was the service. It was a great spot for a breakfast! I'd happily return! read more

Gluten free crepes were amazing. Came for breakfast and was not disappointed - great flavors, well executed, helpful and friendly staff. If you need to eat gluten free and you come for breakfast, make sure to ask for the all-day / lunch menu that has more GF options. The owner offered this when I mentioned GF. The place was busy with a steady turnover, but we didn't feel rushed. Will definitely come again, maybe saving run for Sweet crepes. read more

This place was busy at 10am on a Monday bank holiday. The server was very nice. However, the place was busy. We only saw her when we ordered our food and when we flagged her down to pay our bill. We liked both the apple and carrot juices. The French toast was terrible, because the bread was terrible. And the sliced banana and strawberry was a lazy way of dressing it up. The Brekkie crepe wasn't warm. The cheddar cheese inside didn't melt. When I looked around, all the staff were fit and young. I wonder if that's a work requirement. How about the older generation who are no longer young or fit? read more

Stumbled in to this cute place and was really happy we did! The crepe I had was amazing, so was the chai, the ciabatta sandwich and smoothie my partner had were amazing as well. The bread was fresh and the juice for the smoothie was freshly juiced. Would love to visit again next time we are in town! read more

Very nice spot in Dublin for breakfast. Not too many lunch options. Fresh OJ. Coffee was good. Service was very Irish!

I don't really like this place they have great drinks, but when we got there half of the menu was gone the service was good. It took a while for food to come out though it was very crowded and people had to sit outside in the cold. I didn't end up getting anything because nothing was on their menu. It was also sold out and there was not a lot of stuff left. It was a pretty café, but overall I do not recommend read more

First time in Dublin and my friend had this place bookmarked so we thought we'd try it out for brunch. It was a Sunday around 11am so there was a line outside but they are super efficient at getting people in and out so we didn't wait more than 15-20 minutes. I wanted almost everything on the menu as soon as we saw it, they have some delicious juices, smoothies and a mix of dishes that will satisfy any craving. Could not have been happier with our choice to stop here, if we're in Dublin again I'm hitting this spot up! read more

4/13/2023- found this by the Morrison Hilton. It's similar to an USA IHOP or Denny's. They close at 7pm and stop taking walk-ins at 6pm. We checked in and had buy a crepe and get one free. See the photo. The crepes were ok, the Omlette was good but had no cheese and the bagel sandwich was good. Had 2 cappuccinos and 1 smoothie. Total cost was 44 euro. Can't beat that price. See the photos. Also, the customer service was very good. We had to ask for waters though. read more

We chose Lemon Jelly because there was a free crepe with Yelp check ins :) Free means quantity over quality. The food was average. After two weeks of eating many Irish Breakfasts, upon review I don't think this was one of the stronger ones we had-it was a very 'polite' breakfast-the portions weren't as big, the plate wasn't that pretty, and some food was lukewarm. But the coffee was delicious! The beans tasted like cold spaghetti-o's; the Lemon and Banana crepe had no lemon-you merely squeeze lemon juice on top (not what the menu made it sound like). I loved my tumeric and coconut coffee though! I'd go again just for a coffee and a good scone. The tables were very close together-and the bathroom was quite gross. They seated (squished) the 5 of us at a middle 4 person table. read more
