    Hi All,

    Stopped off in a new coffee place on Wellington Quay called Dwarf Jar where I had the best hot chocolate I have ever had.

    Think its only open a short while.

    Thought I would start a thread on new businesses opening in Dublin that people have 'discovered' and want to tell others about...:D

    Lower Grand Canal Street.

    The other poster is right on the coffee there, a different class compared to the chains

    Actually it changed hands recently. It's now called Vice Coffee Inc and I believe? owned by one of the baristas who worked there. Same staff are there.

    I must try that hot chocolate! I had an excellent one in The Sweetest Thing on Bachelor's Walk recently. Lovely and smooth, not too sickly sweet. They do a whole range of hot chocolates but I just got the regular, no marshmallows or cream crap :p

    Are you sure you don't mean Camden Rotisserie? Camden Kitchen has been open a couple of years and is on Grantham Street.

    Cafe Sols 2.50 tomatoe and basil soup! So cheap, so good and so much!:)

    The tiny cafe at the back of daintree! You can enter through daintree or by going down a dodgy back alley! I found it by walking down the dodgy alley and my curiosity got the better of me so nice!:)

    The Queen of tarts as well and kc peaches....the original one!:)

    Great cupcakes and a great place for lunch in the Summer!

    I thought the Australian BBQ was terrible. I found the food flavourless (had the burger and the ribs) plus the service was very bad. Might give it one more chance if you think it is good as I had high hopes for it

    Vietnamese restaurant, Pho Viet on Parnell Street. Yum!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,624 ✭✭✭SebBerkovich


    Brioche on Aungier Street has the best coffee I've ever had in Dublin, it's of coarse dependent on who's making it, but weekday morning it's never failed me :D

    Dwarf Jar is open again this morning. Closed for staff training last Sunday. The mocha here is REALLY good. As are the croissants!

    There seem to be two new cafes open/opening :D One where O Connell newsagents used to be (deadly location for a coffee shop) called Max's Coffee I think. The other where sol used to be on dawson st, can't recall the name, the <name> coffee project(?). Must check them out.

    I dunno what to make of it, went in once with one of the lads and had some of the pulled pork, was absolutely delicious, then went back a few weeks later with my lady, I ordered food for us both and payed for it, then I was kept waiting for 20 mins at the counter as they forgot my food, after giving me a bag of chips 10 minutes earlier...


    I was with my gf and after singing their praises to her previously to arrival I just got my money back and gave them their half cold chips back....

    Pity....

    Sounds like the same service when I was there. We were waiting 30 minutes for food and people who came after us got served before us which was annoying. When food came we then had to ask for knives and forks. The waitress forgot to bring them and so had to go and ask for them again

    I think the coffee project place (Walter Mitty's or something?) is still cafe sol, just new branding?

    Not that new, but awesome all the same. As much as I dislike Joe Macken, he is a genius
