Best French Bakery in Dublin

"Brother Hubbard is a recent addition to trendy Capel Street and they're setting the bar high. Coffee and tea is sourced from two of the best Dublin suppliers, 3FE and Wall and Keogh and their homemade drinks including orange and lemon barley water and rose, raspberry and apple are refreshing and different. In recent months they have really stepped up their sweet treat offerings and there are now a range of baked goods from scones to friandes as well more dessert-style items."

"thefumbally.ie The magic in the Fumbally unfolded slowly when Aisling Rogerson and Luca D’Alfonso who had run the cafe in the nearby Dublin Food Co-op took over a corner building and started serving falafel. In better economic times the place would have been a convenience store. Good food times followed and Fumbally alumni have spread across the city, improving food in at least one college canteen and at market stalls, pop-ups and cafes."

"Regaling as a mix-match bourgeois café, the vibe here is very much welcoming and reinforcing a spirit of optimism in its own way. Right next to the cafe is the Fumbally Stables, where the team believes that expressions come to life- more like a space for workshops, classes and other performances. What started as a falafel corner with a passion for food, has become a serious food location."

"Choose from a variety of sweet and savoury brunch dishes at 3fe|Courtesy of 3fe. Often cited as the centre of Dublin’s flourishing coffee scene, 3fe is quickly becoming an institution for coffee lovers. It has a roastery in the city centre and supplies many establishments throughout Ireland with its quality coffee."

"A vision in red, Angelina's is a beautiful canal-side restaurant with plenty of character, flavour and charm. The menu itself is made up of Italian, European and Irish influences, with everything from pork belly for brunch, to leek gnocchi and sausage pizzas for dinner."

"Like the idea of waterside drinking and dining as the temperatures rise?. Angelina's have pretty outdoor space facing the canal, so you can kick back with a couple of glasses and a plate of freshly made pasta while topping up your tan."

"The Temple Bar area is best known for its nightlight, but it can also be the perfect place to start the day if you happen to wander by The Queen of Tarts. The collection of muffins and cakes are some of the best sweet baked goods in the city, but you can also find healthier options like the strawberry or banana Irish porridge. The savory breakfasts, including smoked Irish salmon and scrambled eggs, are also delicious."

"If you’re someone with a sweet tooth, then you’re going to want to visit the Queen of Tarts bakery and café. You’ll be amazed at the sweet selection of breakfast and brunch items that are available to purchase. We are strong proponents of having cheesecake for breakfast — what could be more perfect than starting your day with a heavenly creamy slice of Bailey’s cheesecake?"

"Fia is a small neighbourhood cafe in Rathgar that provides customers with the highest quality food, coffee and service in a super dreamy and relaxed setting. The food in Fia is very simple with a focus on using the best produce available, using as much Irish produce as possible and working with the seasons. The menu that they use is small and changes regularly."

"Sprout & Co. has multiple locations across Dublin, and is heavily revered by veggies around the city. The chain is based on fresh produce coming from their very own farm, so the options for all non-meat eaters are endless!. Try everything from veggie boxes to sticky fried aubergine to avocado toast to falafel and miso plates."

"The balcony of Pepper Pot Cafe overlooks the lovely interior courtyard of the Powerscourt Centre shopping mall, a view that can inspire an epic line on the weekend. But the wait is worth it for Dublin’s best bagels, nutty and elastic, fresh baked in-house each day, as well as other baked goods and dishes. The pear and bacon sandwich will convert you to that curious combo, the crumbly scones are held together with a large dollop of clotted cream and a teaspoon of house-made raspberry jam, and the Victoria sponge is the best in the city."

"A quirky café nestled inside the Powerscourt Centre, Pepperpot serves a decent all-encompassing breakfast menu. Choose from the classic avocado on toast to granola with pear, sandwiches, porridge with different toppings, and fancy egg dishes (You have to try their bacon sandwich – a must!) When you consider that every nook and corner cafe, offers something similar these days, you might wonder what the difference is. What truly sets this cafe apart is its breakfast of champions item."

"I used to say that the Southside of Dublin was the only place to get good coffee. But in recent years, there’s a better balance. Driftwood Coffee is a relatively new addtion to the specialty coffee scene in Dublin."

"Whether tea or coffee is your caffeinated beverage of choice, Clement & Pekoe will serve you a cup of the proper stuff. For coffee fiends, there’s always a choice of two espresso and two filters, from a rotating selection of roasters from Ireland and further afield. A (coffee-snob-via-Australia) friend of mine won’t go anywhere in Dublin else to buy a bag of beans."

"There are lots of great coffee shops in the city, but this one is a must visit for tourists and locals alike. Clement and Pekoe is a bustling cafe with a brilliant brew bar menu and coffee beans from a variety of local roasters. They also cater for tea lovers with a huge selection of loose leaf teas."

"This bustling cafe with a neighbourhood vibe stocks coffee beans from a variety of local roasters, as well as creating a brew bar menu for their single-origin filter coffees. They also specialise in loose-leaf teas and matcha if espresso ain't your thing."

"With huge portions, reasonable prices, and a BYOB policy, why wouldn’t you go for a meal at Shouk?. Try the vegan mezze platter, but make sure you have a big appetite because it’s filling. Address: 40 Drumcondra Rd Lower, Drumcondra, Dublin"

"With some of the tastiest falafel and the cutest outdoor seating area ever, this place will be your new fave spot."

"Flip, a vegan and vegetarian burger bar from the owners of Blazing Salads, is one of Dublin’s vegan hot spots. Their burgers, which include black bean and quinoa, millet and sweet potato, and a sweetcorn and feta fritter, are handmade using organic grains, pulses, vegetables and seeds. Don’t mind if we do!"

"The Happy Pearisn’t actually in Dublin (Greystones, Co. Wicklow), but if you’re a vegetarian, or someone who likes fresh food that tastes really good, it is so worth the trip. (Update: The Happy Pear now has several outlets in Ireland, as well as online recipe courses. Yum!). Super excited to have opened in @DublinAirport It’s one of the first #plantbased food outlet in an airport in the world all served on compostable packaging."

"As you might expect from the name, this is a happy place in Greystones. Both a food market and café, it is decorated with lively colors and comfortable seating indoor and outdoor. The best way to visit, in my opinion, is to go after completing the Bray-Greystones Cliff walk."
