 Great pizza and pasta |
9-11 Crown Alley Temple Bar Dublin Ireland +353 1 671 2596 http://www.badasscafe.com/ |
A big warehouse space, this informal restaurant attracts a diverse crowd due to its location in Temple Bar. Watch out for the overhead wires that are used to send orders to the kitchen - apparently this is how department stores in the 1950s originally operated! The food at the Bad Ass is filling and simple, with a huge variety on the menu, including pizzas, burgers, chicken salad and nachos. The restaurant also does special menus for students, vegetarians, kids and tourists. All in all, the Bad Ass is good, cheap and cheerful. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Quick and healthy |
42 Drury St Dublin Ireland +353 1 671 9552 |
Blazing Salads is the perfect place for a quick, healthy lunch. It's also a good place to come for a pick-me-up snack during a busy shopping day. While here, take time to check out the Powerscourt Townhouse - a beautiful building with a wide range of shopping opportunities. The Powerscourt features funky boutique shops and great scenery for people-watching. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Great food and marvellous wines |
5 Beresford Place Dublin Ireland +353 1 855 9244 |
Bond is a cool and funky new wine bar-cum-restaurant in the city centre, situated close to Connolly Station and O'Connell Street. Long wooden tables and white walls create a marvelous modern space with views across to the Custom House. Bond offers a short menu of contemporary and elegant meals, plus excellent desserts and coffee. The most outstanding feature however, is the basement wine bar, which offers a superb array of wines from around the world. The service is friendly and unobtrusive; Bond is well worth checking out.

Popular cafe in Temple Bar |
3-4 Bedford Row Temple Bar Dublin Ireland +353 1 677 9043 |
By day, Cafe Gertrude serves excellent coffee and gorgeous bowls of soup, as well as a wide selection of sandwiches. By night the usual fare is pizza and pasta dishes. The setting is lovely and the service the kind that encourages you to stay for a while. It's a great place to take a breather from the hectic pace of Temple Bar. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Stylish and sophisticated cafe |
5 South Anne Street Dublin Ireland +353 1 670 7239 |
There are several locations of this great coffee house, although the South Anne Street branch is the best and the most well-located. Both breakfast and lunch menus are tasty and varied. The coffee is good and there is outdoor seating for sunny days. A perfect stopping point during a busy shopping day. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Full American breakfasts |
Powerscourt Townhouse Centre Dublin Ireland +353 1 679 4552 |
Chompy's is situated on the first floor terrace of the Powerscourt Townhouse Centre. Wake up to maple syrup on pancakes, muffins and eggs benedict - or just some good coffee. A full American breakfast is on offer, which should set you up for the day in style. Sandwiches on bagels (tuna melts, pastrami and swiss) are also featured. A fine American deli in the heart of Dublin. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Stateside blends |
12 Clarendon Powerscourt Townhouse Centre Dublin, Leinster Ireland +353 1 679 7772 |
Brought over from the United States, this attractive coffee bar offers a multitude of blends and flavours. It's been a fixture in Dublin for some years now and has recently renovated itself in order to compete with all the coffee places cropping up about town. The fine aroma will draw you in, and there is outdoor seating for sunny days. Gloria Jean's also sells all manner of coffee beans, coffee-makers and assorted paraphernalia, so whether you drink in or take out, treat yourself to a few varieties...and perhaps even a new mug or coffee-grinder!

Open 23 hours a day |
Jury's Hotel Pembroke Road Dublin Ireland +353 1 660 5000 |
Jury's coffee dock, which is 23 hours a day, seven days a week, is perfect both for early-birds and those who want to keep going after a night out on the town. A full Irish breakfast weighs in at a rather hefty EUR12, so it's not a bargain - but Jury's is undeniably convenient, cosy and reliable. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Coffee in chic surroundings |
Westbury Mall Dublin Ireland +353 1 670 7056 |
This fine cafe specializes in gourmet coffees, cakes, breakfast and light snacks. Klatsch is centrally located just off Grafton Street and is pleasantly swish and upmarket, its most attractive feature probably being the plush, red, velvet sofa. Unobtrusive and friendly service make this cafe a pleasure. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Crepes for all |
Katwilgweg 2 Dublin Ireland +353 1 672 9044 |
Lemon is the ideal spot for something different when you need a quick bite to eat. Crepes are the specialty at this sidewalk café: the menu includes savory snacks (like the vegetarian "powercrepe" with spinach) and sweet crepes (with Nutella and ice cream). Many other combinations are available, or else you can create your own. Sandwiches and waffles are also available, making it easy to have breakfast, lunch or even perhaps dinner here.

Nostromo |
25 Leeson Street Dublin Ireland +353 1 662 2321 www.nostromo.ie |
Nostromo occupies the basement of an elegant Georgian house on Leeson Street, close to the city centre. The cafe opens for breakfast and lunch, offering fine coffee, lunches and snacks. The dining room is comfortable and cosily decorated in shades of red. Nostromo specialises in private parties and is in the heart of one of Dublin's well known night club areas and accepts group bookings. We offer a range of menus to suit your budget and your requirements. We also offer a choice of entertainment (or you can organise your own), or you may just want to eat with us and then follow on to one of the many night clubs on the street. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Stylish and roomy |
57 Harcourt St Dublin Ireland +353 1 478 2088 |
The Odeon offers Art Deco elegance, and a long bar that almost spans the length of building. Spacious and airy, it is the perfect spot for late afternoon and Sunday drinks. The lunch menu contains a few delicious surprises (the seared beef or the cannelloni are both musts!), although the service can sometimes border on the lethargic. The evenings draw an after-work crowd, making open space a premium. However, it's always a fine spot for a night out. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Great food in stylish surroundings |
14 Dame Court Dublin Ireland +353 1 670 7634 http://www.odessa.ie/ |
For something different, this cool and cosmopolitan restaurant always makes for a great night out. The upstairs dining room has high ceilings and funky art, while downstairs has a lounge atmosphere, complete with sofas and coffee tables. The food is imaginative, although not far from traditional basics when you look closely. Russian sausage, mashed potatoes and onion rings, pastas and several vegetarian options are all on offer here. Sunday brunch is great here; while on Sunday evenings you can often watch a classic movie in comfort. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Old world style |
31 Lower Pembroke Street Dublin Ireland +353 1 676 2994 / +353 1 676 2980 |
For traditional style food in an above-average setting, visit this traditonal restaurant in the heart of Georgian Dublin. The Pembroke is comfortable but also upmarket; big chairs, dark walls, the kind of place kids of all ages might take their parents. The menu has exactly what you would expect; lamb, steak, fish and all of it's good and hearty. The Pembroke is also open for continental breakfast, as well as lunch and dinner. The bar is a good spot for a drink, with a traditional wooden interior moving into a glazed atrium. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Fine coffee to perk you up |
Dawson Street Dublin Ireland +353 1 672 0218 |
Perk specialises in coffees, teas, smoothies, sandwiches and salads. The Dawson Street outlet is very small with a tiny smoking section and a couple of tables outside. They do take-aways, however, and the fact that staff from the nearby Mayor's office frequents the cafe, proves that Perk provides quality produce. It's a reliable place for a quick coffee or snack, and the juices and smoothies are recommended. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Home-made sweet and savoury treats |
4 Cork Hill Dublin Ireland +353 1 670 7499 |
Queen of Tarts lies on the edge of Temple Bar and is one of the city's finest cafes. Everything on the menu is home-made on the premises, and the cafe specializes in excellent cakes, scones and crumbles. Tasty breakfasts, delicious savoury tarts and good coffee are also on offer. Queen of Tarts has built up a considerable reputation for fine food and courteous service after only a few years in business; and has now established a branch in the newly refurbished City Hall, right across the road.
