Great breakfast, brunch, and lunch spot! Awesome coffees and the perfect place to start the day. Very friendly service and just a great atmosphere. Any mixups mentioned in other reviews seem to be fixed because we ran into nothing but awesome service. Great start to our trip! read more

This place is so good we came back for breakfast 2 days in a row. The space is open and bright and an absolute pleasure to have breakfast at. The staff was super warm and pleasant and the food....oh man let's talk about the food. The pancakes were amaze and the irish breakfast? Well I could probably eat it there every day for the rest of my life and not get sick of it. Perfectly cooked eggs and the sausages were delish. read more

I was very impressed with the meal I got for lunch right after my tour of the nearby Jameson Distillery. I got the hot meal offering: cheesy chicken on hot mash. It was absolutely delicious. The chicken was moist and cooked well, covered with Parmesan. The mash was hot and buttery. The meal came with choice of two salads. Wasn't too impressed with the couscous but I don't usually like it either so I can hold it against them. The brownie I ordered for dessert was moist and very chocolatey. Besides great food, the price was very reasonable. Lots of food and only €7.50. The staff were helpful and gave us a free coffee when whoever ordered it couldn't be found. The atmosphere was great, too! I wish I lived nearby this place because it was great! Highly recommend for a good price on a delicious lunch. read more

This is a coffee review only. Stepped in, nice space and all that. Looks decidedly cool. On my relentless search for great coffee in Dublin I ordered a small flat white to go. The bloke that made it was pleasant. But 2.95€ for a small coffee is too much anywhere. Its not only Third Space that is guilty of this. 2.95€ is 3€ and a shot of espresso costs a cafe about .20c at most. Factor in the 200ml of milk, the paper cup and the work it took to make it. Is it worth 3€? I think not, no way Jose! The coffee was very good mind you, perfectly balanced milk coffee and a nice temperature. So long moan short is that the coffee is good but the price is not. This is the price of cool. Will come back to try the food which looks good. read more

This was our favorite breakfast spot in all of Ireland. They have a small menu but it covers all the bases. Their positions are filling and coffee was out of this world. They had a lot of locals and not many tourist which was nice for a change. When we go back to Ireland I'll defiantly be back here. read more

Third Space - Chicken on herb focaccia and carrot salad - Irish Near Me - Dublin, D

Very good sandwiches that are pre made. They are warmed up and very fresh. It is a hopping place and seats fill up quickly. Many are studying or working and some are just here for lunch. Either way it was a lovely little lunch place that was on the way to our next adventure. read more

Third Space - All that's left of my raspberry cake. It was delicious! - Irish Near Me - Dublin, D

This is a relaxed cafe with some really nice menu choices for breakfast or lunch. Just ok not amazing pancakes and bacon a good fry or a nice ciabatta sandwich. Kind of a hipster vibe to the place but with more sunlight and less grungeyness. Perfect for a Saturday morning. Food is nice but not out of this world. Had better pancakes and bacon elsewhere. read more

Ehh average breakfast. Had the full Irish and a cappuccino. Set me back about €12. It was ok, nothing to write home about. I won't be rushing back for another one, let's put it that way. They seem to have the orders prepared and served a little too quickly here for my liking, which makes me feel like they may be re-heat jobs rather than completely freshly prepared. Staff were friendly and obliging. read more

Perfect breakfast! The food is amazing! And prices cheap! Definitely try avocado toast!

Love this place. Great food and a great atmosphere, especially at lunch. My wife can't stop talking about it and tells all her friends. It's good to see such a nice place open on Smithfield Market, brings a lot of life to the area at lunch. Forgot to mention it's affordable and buggy friendly. read more

My friend and I visited Third Space last Sunday because she wanted to try Irish breadkfast and I wanted to visit the chrismas market in smithfield square. We both enjoyed our food so much. Big and full. Althought there were so many people in the place, we did not wait too long to have a table. That's really good. If you want to enjoy a coffee and have a lazy afternoon, Third Space is definitely your choice. read more

Third Space - Full irish breakfast. YUMMY. - Irish Near Me - Dublin, D

Nice atmosphere for a weekend brunch, calm and relaxed. On a sunny day, the tables outside are perfect. Hard to get one though. It closes at 1800, so forget about dinners. read more

The staff is extremely friendly and outgoing. The food is very good (I had full weekend Irish breakfast and a great muffin) and they do unlimited refills on filter coffee. It was busy but still no prob finding table. The problem was with their numbering system. You order from counter and then take your number to your seat and they deliver food to you. I received THREE wrong meals, and then when they brought the right one, it was missing eggs! This was very common and was happening all over the restaurant. People were laughing so I guess it happens all the time. Not sure what the point of the number system is if they don't know what meal goes with what number. read more

I love This place , everything ... The atmosphere And food :-) I love The tuna sandwich And mocha all The staff is very lovely. Thank you guys to make My day better. read more

This was a charming restaurant right across from the old Jamison distillery. Service was very friendly and food was impeccable. My daughter loved the books available to read during breakfast. I would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Dublin, enjoy the Irish breakfast! read more

What a lovely place for breakfast! I came here a couple times during my visit to Dublin since it was right downstairs from where I was staying. The staff was very nice and helpful to us American visitors. I really enjoyed my mini Irish breakfast, and even though it was called "mini" it was very filling and I loved the suggestion the cashier made when I asked what she recommends and she told me to get the eggs "poached"...quite delicious, especially with the perfectly buttered toast that comes with the dish that you can dip in the yolk goodness. The tomatoes and pretty much everything is cooked to perfection and tastes fresh. You have to order your food at the counter first and take your utensils and a number before they bring your food out to you. The salmon and scrambled eggs was very good as well. That brown bread is magnificent when you smoother butter on it, but I did have a friend who got her toast a little to toasty and didn't enjoy it as much since it was too crunchy. I recommend both dishes that I tried and next time I would try some of their pastries, they looked big and tasty! read more

Simply loved this place! Great staff, great food, great prices. I went here three days in a row and had the veggie breakfast every day with a cup of tea. Big ups for the eggs - PERFECTLY made! Also cozy with the books in around the place and nice staff. Interior design is nice too. I literally have nothing bad to say about this place! read more

I would recommend Third Space to anyone visiting Dublin. The restaurant is located on the north side of the river, within a 5 minute walk to the city center. The atmosphere has a rustic feel and the space is larger than most of what we experienced in Dublin. Our party of 7 was seated immediately at a large farm style table in the back. You order at the front of the store and then your food and drinks are brought to your table. I had the veggie breakfast - it was delicious and filling. Other people in the group were equally happy with the mini Irish breakfast and the pancakes served with a fries egg on top. I got the drip coffee (with unlimited refills), and was happy with my choice. People in our party also enjoyed the lattes. The restaurant features a free clean bathroom, free tap water, and free wifi - all essentials when traveling Europe. This place is a great way to start your day in Dublin. read more

Third Space was our first stop after arriving in Dublin. Very cute little restaurant. Service was excellent. We ordered the traditional Irish breakfast and it was delish! Really enjoyed it there. read more

Great place for a hangover Irish breakfast! My friends and I stayed across the street in the Generator Hostel and enjoyed brunch here. Not a fan of blood sausage, but the whole meal was amazing. read more

Dear American Toursits, you think you know cheddar cheese? Think again. This place is delicious, adorable, and the prices are incredibly reasonable. Highly recommend! read more

BEST......PLACE......EVER!!! I cannot say enough great things about this place. The breakfast sandwiches are yummy, the mini Irish breakfast is perfect, the coffee and hot chocolate are devine. The service is awesome. My husband happened to find this place by accident, after one day, I insisted we go there for breakfast every day after that. read more

Delish food, very friendly staff, wifi and perfect chai tea latte. What more can be said? Make sure you go when visiting beautiful Ireland!

This is my favourite place to eat easily, inexpensively and regularly in Dublin. I love the philosophy of the business (books, community, healthy food, fair prices, music and events) and all the food is delicious. The staff is very friendly and the place beautiful. read more

Popped in because my favourite cafe in the area was no longer serving breakfast and found to my delight that this is a proper cafe. I assumed it was a 'grab a cuppa and a bite to eat and run' kind of a place. The staff are a real selling point, they are helpful, smiley, generally sound and a bit of craic. The food is good too. read more

A very meh experience. Decided upon Third Space for brunch today. Went with a couple of friends. We had the pancakes, full Irish and sandwiches. The pancakes were probably the biggest disappointment, they tasted like pancakes from a packet. They came with maple syrup, a fruit pot and two pieces of bacon. Would be really surprised if they were homemade! Everything else was fine, nothing special. I got the pastrami ciabatta, which was quite nice - it came accompanied with a really sad looking bit of lettuce. Probably won't return for the food, but maybe for some of their other events! read more

great solid textbook breakfast spot. can't really go wrong. nothing crazy out of this world but definitely above the standard breakfast experience. you can easily see why its so popular. JEANS: ok by far ORDER: at counter then have a seat read more

I cannot believe how many positive reviews this place got. We ordered the Irish breakfast based on Yelp recs, and it was decidedly average. The eggs were not runny in any way. The worst part is I paid top dollar for an "unlimited" cup of coffee. It didn't come until after the meal was served, after I asked several times. The mug came half filled, even though I ordered it black. Maybe it may be an Irish thing, but my expectation is the coffee comes first, not last. read more

Friendly staff and service is very good. Food was very good. It was very fast service. Staff was helpful with the ordering of breakfast. Would recommend to everyone. Very casual atmosphere. Can get busy. read more

Delicious chai latte, and excellent bowl of porridge!! Love the atmosphere, definitely have to check this place out while in Dublin!

Wonderful service and lots to choose from for breakfast. They have high chairs for the little humans and a square just outside for them to burn energy by chasing after pigeons. Lots of pastries and winderful yogurt and coffee. read more

The old reliable in Smithfield now for breakfast, great staff and the prices are the most reasonable around. The full irish is the best breakfast in around the square. read more

I really like the ethos of this place. Let me say that first. Now, on to the food. It is always good, especially for €4.50 for a sandwich and then another euro for two side salads. Their daily specials are always tasty, too. There are usually notes to keep customers updated about specials, pricing, etc. I feel very informed and comfortable in my eating choices. Also, €5 for a mini Irish breakfast? Yes, please. So why only 4 stars despite the great food, friendly service and fair pricing? The lack of dairy free options for sad, lactose intolerant me. There are only a few things I can get off the menu and most days I don't care because everything else is so good (seriously, check out the space because it does reflect the ethos of this place) but sometimes it's a drag. read more

After a fantastic tour at Jameson we found this place in Smithfield and loved it. I had a fantastic chicken pesto sandwich and my wife had their soup. Great place that if I lived here I would make a regular haunt. read more

Really good reasonably priced spot set in a very nice space. Good food, good coffee, but for me the real plus of third space is the room. Huge windows allow the place to flood with natural light illuminating the nicely mismatched old floor against the bare concrete walls and usually some local art dotted around. An excellent spot to chill out, read a book or get a little work done. read more

I've been coming here since it opened, and I must say the staff are absolutely lovely, even when I don't get a chance to go in for a few months they still remember how I take my coffee and my name! Really lovely customer service. And the Full Irish Breaky is gorg. read more

GREAT lunch spot! Right near a whiskey distillery we went to. Really well priced and super delicious. I got the goat cheese wrap and veg and it was so yummy i could have eaten another one... I was satisfied with the portion its just that it tasted so good! My friend got the tuna melt and it was huge , so much that she didn't finish it. Got a lovely latte. It was a really comfortable place, I felt like if I lived in Dublin I'd probably go there a lot just to have a coffee and chat . read more

The food is great, tea is great, a nice venue, and they are open on Sunday. Unfortunately the lattes are not good at all. I think its the milk they use, at least that seems to be the consensus amongst myself and a few others. Since it is a coffee shop making a terrible latte has a huge impact on my rating. read more

Tasty, solid food at an affordable price. I quite enjoyed the croissant stuffed with ham and gruyere.
