    Any hints as to where you spotted the sign?
    Have not seen it myself.

    New coffee shops are always welcome - still have my own favourite though when I can get a seat - Della Stella.
    Nice food, really enjoy the coffee and the owner is very friendly with a great sense of humour - always made feel welcome there.

    Is it not part of the vino pasta extension.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 245 ✭✭youknowwho


    It's opposite Eugene's in the old interflora shop. I didn't realise that vino pasta were expanding

    Yeah, read the planning application posted in the window and it is vino pasta... from the looks of it they are opening a cafe and shop...

    Yep, still the best. Great coffee shop - Caffe del Stella (that's my version of the spelling).

    Crap - got the name wrong - not as bas as getting the owners name wrong for around 4 months - as I said good chap - just laughed at me when I apologised and told me to "SIT DOWN" :) - queue horrified looks from some of the other patrons.

    Ummm - think I have to head there later today for a latte....

    Was driving past Vino Pasta today - it looks like a cafe alright. Perhaps they're looking to get a share of the daytime trade? Homan's won't be too happy about that.

    homans really need a bigger place, pity they're so recessed back into the shopfront.

    Maybe they should advertise a bit more or put a sign up cos sometimes you wouldn't even know there was a coffee shop there!

    Putting throws out on their outdoor seating was inspired - a good solution to a small problem.

    I think vino pasta are missing a golden opportunity given its proximity to the dart stn it doesn't open in the am. I would love to nurse a nice coffee on my hour long daily commute.

    Maybe they have done the research and the numbers didn't stack up if so I stand corrected!

    I fully agree Ciaran, I often wondered why Insomnia didn't do same. The coffee available from Eugenes just doesn't cut it.
