I liked this Cafe. Lots of Dubliners and locals do as well. Food was hot and fresh, it did take a little bit of time, but they have a small kitchen and lots of orders. Everyone was working hard and keeping up the pace as best as they could.
My lady enjoyed her Full Irish breakfast, and she greatly devoured it. One can never go wrong with a classic breakfast order.
I ordered the Chicken Bacon Wrap, and while I thought it was good, I did not love it. Before I had even tasted it, when I went to pick it up, a plethora of grease came flying out. Now I knew was I was getting into ordering a chicken bacon wrap, but this was a bit of overkill. Along with the greasy mess, flavor was good, but in my opinion it was overwhelmingly salty. It was on the borderline of almost TOO salty. Along with the French fries it was almost impossible with the salt content. The only saving grace was the fresh small side salad that was able to break the saltiness. The salad was delicious and freshly made. I believe they make their salad dressing in house. Their french fries/chips were beautifully thin, and piping hot. Exactly as they should have been. I did enjoy them, but couldnt eat a lot. In the end i had to choose between the wrap or the french fries/chips. I chose the fries/chips. I would rather not do that. I would rather enjoy my entire meal when I support a local business.
I wouldn't order the chicken bacon wrap again if I was to go back. I would explore other wraps or other parts of the menu. They had some neat vegetarian options and some paninis that looked delicious.
Their coffee and pastry selection was awesome. Very much eye candy. I would recommend this Cafe and come back to visit them myself. They have a lot of potential and are very much worth a try.
I recommend this Cafe. I hope they continue to succeed with...
Read moreAt first I only came for a cappuccino, but after a week in Dublin, and 3 trips back to Keoghs, I can confidently say this is one of my favorite spots in the city.
Slightly tucked away from the tourists in Temple Bar, Keoghs is quaint and homey. Tables are first come first serve, but I never had an issue with seating. They have charging ports and outlets available, which is convenient because my phone is never charged. Absolutely everything they offer is excellent, but the scones are exceptional. Prices are reasonable, I’m a poor college student and I found it affordable.
Come early in the morning to find piles of fresh scones. I tried the lemon poppyseed, blueberry, and raspberry, and they were probably some of the best scones I’ve ever had. Absolutely cannot miss.
The cappuccinos are well-done and affordable. You get a pretty big cup for €4.50 I believe. I was able to get non-fat milk instead of whole. It had a good amount of foam and had nice flavor.
I came with a group for breakfast on my birthday (St. Patrick’s Day 🍀) and the portions were huge. There was a line out the door at 9:30, but it moved quickly. The omelets could serve two people, maybe even three, and looked delicious. The pancakes also looked beautiful. I ordered the full irish breakfast, which was exactly how I wanted it. Everything tasted fresh and had great flavor, very authentic.
If you’re walking past Keoghs, whether you’re visiting for a day or a month, I’d highly recommend that you stop by. Even if you’re just grabbing a scone, I guarantee you won’t regret it.
Side note: The scones do not come with clotted cream, only butter and jam. There was an English woman in front of me who was extremely upset they didn’t offer clotted cream and ended up not ordering a scone. Truly her loss. They are delicious without...

As a cappuccino lover, I was thrilled to find that their cappuccino was a masterpiece – perfectly made, with a gorgeously frothy texture and a flavor that was truly exceptional. The attention to detail in crafting this coffee was evident, and it left me thoroughly impressed.
Beyond the exceptional coffee, I was greeted by a friendly and welcoming cash counter attendant who took my order with a smile. Their warm demeanor added to the overall pleasant experience.
The variety of muffin options caught my eye, and I couldn't resist trying the banana walnut muffin. It was a revelation – unbelievably soft and bursting with flavor. The balance between the sweetness of the banana and the nutty richness of the walnuts was just right, making it an absolute treat.
For a heartier option, I opted for the chicken sandwich, and I was not disappointed. The food quality was top-notch, and the sandwich was delicious. The flavors melded together beautifully, and each bite was a delightful blend of taste and texture.
Overall, my visit to Keogh's Cafe was a delightful journey of flavors and hospitality. From the exceptional cappuccino to the delectable banana walnut muffin and the satisfying chicken sandwich, every aspect of my experience was superb.
