The slight difference in culture when visiting tripped us up more than expected! I would call this place "hipster" but I think that would be an insult - it is a quaint and respectable joint that has delicious and healthy food. We had to try this place due to the proximity to where we were staying for our trip, so we stopped in when we had a free morning. The food we had was unexpected, but delicious. If you're from The States and are in the area, stop by!

Major fan of this place…read more What I like: - Run by a husband and wife combo - these guys know their stuff but are goddam likeable in doing so - Located on the edge of the Phoenix Park, it's the most perfect location possible for a post-run / cycle treat fest. - Big massive windows drawing the sunlight in while you munch on your nosh - The nosh. Homemade, healthy, inspired, absolutely delish. - The tea - loose leaf, served in delicate vintage china and big burly but very cute knitted tea cosies. What I don't like: - Nothing. This place is deadly. Long may it reign!

The two cakes were both WONDERFUL; I've never had anything else here but I can definitely vouch for the fact that they do an amazing job with citrus + cake. The lemon curd cake had a generous amount of lemon curd cream so the extra cream was unnecessary. Got a nonfat (skinny) cappuccino with my cake - the small size was more than enough! Yum!

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.

So when we found the Boathouse Cafe at lunchtime, just as we were getting peckish... it made us two happy bunnies indeed. We both went for the soup of the day and shared a sausage roll. The sausage roll was your standard fare. But the soup was excellent, tomato and basil. And the slice of brown bread that came with it was also excellent. None of this sweet brown bread that a lot of places seem to be serving up with soup these days. We got a table outside where there was plenty of other cyclist parked up for lunch too. They know their market here, as there are a few bike racks provided. With our bellies full and are hearts warmed, we cycled away happy.

Today I got a chance to try it and was really pleasantly surprised by what I found. Inside is small; you are greeted with a small hatch, almost like a kiosk within the cafe where you order your (extremely good) coffee and what ever treat catches your eye. The treat in my case was a home made coconut cookie - it was huge and beautiful and tasted as good as it looked. Around the walls are tables with not massively comfortable chairs, but good enough for a quick tea or coffee and a chat. The atmosphere is relaxed, the surrounds old and attractive, the costs not prohibitive. Now that I know what it is like I'll be back - though I bet it gets mobbed during the summer!
