Last but not least allow me to recommend one more place to eat in Dublin: The Pepper Pot Café.
I had a phenomenal breakfast at this centrally located teahouse and can’t think of anyone who wouldn’t find The Pepper Pot’s offer a delicious one.
My toasted homemade bagel (or “bagle” as it’s presented in the menu) was the tastiest and most texturally pleasing I’ve had outside New York and New Jersey – and better than most I’ve had in those states. What made it even yummier was the thick layer of Burren Smoke House salmon with an equally generous spread of chive cream cheese and squirt of lemon. It cost €11.50 and came with a salad, flavoursome pickles and my choice of hot drink (a black Americano – and not bad either).
I loved the setting almost as much as the food. On a first floor terrace inside a covered courtyard it was comfortable and airy with lots of streaming natural light and a easygoing ambiance.
Service was quick and friendly.
If you’re looking for honest, made from scratch food and a pleasant start to your day in Dublin, put The Pepper Pot at the top of your list.
The Pepper Pot Café is located inside Powerscourt Centre at 60 William Street South, Dublin 2, D02 CH28. Find out more at thepepperpot.ie.
