    Utter ****e, it’s to ensure that systems work, you will be seated in a section, and a waiter will be told you have been seated in their section. Any cafe that allows customers freely come and go is been run inefficiently, nothing to do with being ‘pretentious’

    I think they might be referring to what canteen do, or used to do. You couldn't sit down until you ordered even if the place was empty

    O'Connors Cafe on Thomas Street seats you as you come in the door, and the service is far from crap as you put it. In fact, every large cafe does, it'd be utter mayhem otherwise.

    The Thomas St cafe is a great cafe, and as such is always busy!

    In my experience it is far better when going to busy cafes and restaurants to be seated by a waiter/waitress. That way they greet you, seat you and give you the menus and let you know what specials (if any) are on etc. Otherwise you could sit down yourself and then wait 10mins before anyone has even noticed you are there, then wait for a menu, etc... Thats all fine if the place is quiet but in any busy place it would be bedlam and then not an enjoyable experience

    Rift is on Mallow St. in the former Canteen premises. It might be a bit of the pretentious/hipster side, but their coffee is very good.

    The stench of arrogance in your posts is pretty disgusting... No matter what anyone says to your posts, you are always going to argue with them.

    Can't really disagree on the price versus size of coffee but find then to have some of the best coffee in the city.

    Get over yourself your allowed discuss and reply i was talking about O'Connors bakery he is talking about Thomas Street different place entirely.

    Attack and insult the poster away as usual.

    Loads of Coffee shops in Limerick dont seat you both big and small, stating that is not arrogance but a fact.
