City Guide

Coffee in Dublin

Precision espresso bars built for lingering rather than passing through.

Dublin's best coffee stops are compact but purposeful, from roaster flagships and V60 bars to central rooms that make a proper pause easy.

Dublin's specialty coffee scene works best when you choose by route and pace. Grand Canal Dock, Dublin 2, Pearse Street, Drury Street, Smithfield, The Liberties, Middle Abbey Street, and Inchicore each give the guide a different kind of stop, from broad roaster reads to focused brew bars.
