    Sophie's at the Dean hotel on Harcourt St is excellent for brunch.

    Hatch and Sons?
    It's a bit hip with the wooden 'plates' and whatnot, but the baked eggs is nice: https://www.hatchandsons.co/menu

    Haven't ever been there myself but I've heard great things from colleagues about Baxter & Greene on Harcourt Road (around the corner from Harcourt luas stop).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,818 ✭✭✭✭Charlie19


    There is a cafe that do a lovely full Irish...

    Its located on Wexford street, walk from Harcourt corner of the green down Cuffe street and turn left onto wexford street and its just on your left.

    If you're looking for a proper full Irish, Gerry's on Montague St. Up Harcourt St from the SW corner of Stephen's Green, first street on the right,about halfway along on the right. Think they're open from 8am.

    The Morgan Hotel on Fleet Street. Possibly the best breakfast I've ever had. It's about 20 or 30 euro though if memory serves

    Taste Food Co on South William Street do a nice breakfast menu, and the mega breakfast is pretty huge.

    Tang on Dawson St. Jammers at weekends but on a Monday morn you should be able to get a table.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51 ✭✭penno


    Bewleys on Grafton Street. They always did a good one, not sure since the revamp.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,564 ✭✭✭✭whiskeyman


    Kilkenny shop upstairs on Nassau St.
    Breakfast for less then a tenner last I remember.
    Damn good too.

    I heard the revamp bewleys was over priced and not a patch on it's Glory days.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,904 ✭✭✭✭mfceiling


    One more recommendation for Gerry's.

    Lovely breakfast and very reasonably priced, plus they'll make up any combination you want.

    €7.95 to be precise... great breakfast.

    5 items plus toast, tea/coffee.

    All the yuppy spots getting a mention lol

    If you want an actual proper full Irish in the company of normal folk then Gerrys on Montague Street is the biz


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,844 ✭✭✭✭cormie


    Awesome selection, value, food and ambiance a 4 minute walk from Stephens Green here:

    Another vote for Gerry's.
    I used to work beside it many moons ago, great spot to get a fry up 😀


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,641 ✭✭✭Teyla Emmagan


    We used to go to Gerry's and get the full fry for a treat the odd lunch time. It's a huge plate of food, definitely a man sized meal.

    There is a Pain Quotidien after opening on Molesworth St. I haven't been in it yet but the ones I have been in in the States do an amazing breakfast. More granola and avacodo on toast than a full Irish fry though. Depends on what you are looking for.

    Metro Cafe on south William Street is decent too. Good value


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 10,668 Mod ✭✭✭✭humberklog


    O' Neill's of Suffolk St. is great value and quality. 9 quid for (I think) a 12 item breakfast...and that includes toast and tea/coffee in the price as is normal.
    The food's made fresh so isn't immediately served but it doesn't take long and is worth the extra 5 minute.

    Personally, I wouldn't ever go to LPQ for a meal, they are incrediblyu expensive and also they automatically stick on a 10% service charge, which You have to ask to be removed.

    Also, for the person mentioning Bewley's above. Not a good option either. Though I have never had breakfast there, see the comments on TripAdvisor regarding them. Anything but inspiring.

    Anyone who pays that for breakfast needs their head examined.

    As a few people have said. Gerry's is a great spot.

    I was doing a job in the Morgan at the time so didn't pay. Very expensive breakfast but they had everything you could imagine and all you can eat. Eggs cooked anyway you want, full fry, pancakes, fruit, massive selection of breads and cakes. I left with my big Snickers pockets bulging with a selection of muffins. :)

    Can you walk in and order breakfast or do you have to be staying there?
