We had a nice, tasty breakfast at Bewley's, seated under stained glass in the back by a coal fire. Nice. We liked it. more

I really liked the café, it has a pretty great furniture with a nostalgic touch. lunch was good and not too expensive but I would recommend you eat breakfast there. The coffee is very good and is also to go... there might be better cafés but Bewleys is located in the center of Grafton Street and perfect after a shopping... more

After reading the reviews on trip advisor and after doing some further research about the place, I decided that this place was a must given its history.

If you have the misfortune to be sent upstairs, because it is full, you may receive sub standard service and a poorer choice. We ordered muffins but only chocolate ones were left.

Without doubt the best cappuccino in Dublin. They are the only cafe I know of (and I have lived in many European countries!) that have invested in real barista training for their staff, and every cappuccino has a rosetta leaf! Fabulous coffee!

We stopped a Garda to find a place that served really good Irish Breakfasts and were told that Bewley's is the best in the area. We love food and have sampled some of the best and worst in the world, I'm afraid this place is up there with the worst. Bewley's is located on Grafton Street in the overpriced shopping... more
