neighborhood spot for breakfast & lunch. cute neighborhood near Dublin City U campus and Croke…read morePark. short breakfast menu with some pastry selections. wife chose a croissant to begin and i picked a scone with butter/jam/whipped cream. the scone was listed as served warm and came barely above room temp. it was also quite dry and crumbled when touched by a knife. but the addition of jam and cream made the pieces pretty tasty. the croissant was significantly better, flaky and fresh. with jam even better. the house organic granola my wife chose was declared pretty bland even with the berries, mint, and yogurt added. a drizzle of honey did a lot to improve the taste. my choice of eggs benedict was intriguing as it was listed as using Parma Ham-a type of prosciutto-instead of a more traditional ham. unfortunately the execution didn't meet expectations. the ham, instead of being sliced and soft, was similar to a chipped beef, crisp and in little chunks. it was piled on one side of the bread without egg or hollandaise. the egg was perched on the other side, nicely poached but covered in the blandest hollandaise i've ever tasted. a good dash of pepper helped but between the meat and the sauce it wasn't a good choice. also the "muffin" it was served on was really dry. our service, while attentive, was made a bit difficult by a communication barrier with the server who i believe did not have English as their first language. she was trying very hard though. maybe another day and another meal-lunch or brunch-would be different but on this day we left disappointed.

It provides the simple service of sandwiches, pretty run of the mill sandwiches at that. But they are fast and the sandwiches are extremely great value. Today I got a chicken and stuffing on white, which was pre-made and ready to go from their fridge. In and out super quick. It wasn't a gourmet or artisan sandwich, but for what it was it was pretty good. I really enjoyed it too. The best part, it cost 2.80 EUR. But the standard was much higher than than the price suggests. They also have a counter down the back where you can have your sandwich made to your own liking. Highly recommended.

We asked the employee how to pronounce the name, he stated the dh at the end is silent. Walking in, we were immediately greeted with friendly service. Since we were spankin new, he explained the menu. There's a kiosk to order, but he helped customize mine, since I'm dairy free. Woo hoo, yes! they offer dairy free cheese that melts! So I ordered a tuna with pickles, sourdough, dairy free cheese, lettuce, and seasonings per his recommendation. Hubby ordered the hambo with a side of Guinness steak flavor chips. Yum! The outside of the bread was perfectly crisp and the inside was an explosion of flavors , all good! The layer of tuna was thin ( I think a bit more of tuna) would have made it even better. But, nevertheless, every bite was a melty flavor sensation. The hambo was very good. Add a chip/drink combo for 3 Euro. Great service, tasty food!

I ordered eggs Florentine but got eggs Benedict instead. English muffin was not toasted, ham too thick & roasted potatoes very sad. Nicest part of the meal was the salad dressing. By the time waiter returned it was too late to reorder. Did not get a second coffee because no waiter came back even though we said we would have another in 5 min.

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!

Their menu is ever changing, and can be found on their Facebook page daily, and is emailed to students of the college daily. It is vegetarian friendly and you can request vegan alternatives too, which is something very important to me when I look for a café to have lunch or just a lovely morning coffee. Their beetroot burger is absolutely amazing, and the recipe was suggested by one of the students, hence he name "Aoibhinn from Sculpture's Beetroot Burger", which is a lovey touch. You can see into the kitchen of the café, and see all of the food being prepared in the mornings. They serve breakfast until 12, and then they serve lunch from 11 onwards. My go to is an almond milk latte, it's only €2.10 which I find extremely affordable. You can get a coffee and something sweet for €3!!! If you want to make a day of coming here, you can also check out some of the great student held exhibitions within the college, such as the Yellow Box exhibition space, and the NCAD gallery always has new and exciting exhibitions displayed too. Definitely worth a visit!
