Two Pups Fairview — Restaurant in Dublin

Popped in this morning as it’s been on my list for a while but I’m never around the area. I honestly didn’t expect a big offering as the space is so small but the menu was really decent, with varied options. I started off with topped hash browns - they were life changing. I asked for a fried egg and got two lovely runny ones. I actually texted my partner saying it was one of the nicest things I’ve ever had in a small cafe - and for such a good price! Perfect small bite! I have a rule where I don’t let myself have more than one coffee in one sitting, but I couldn’t resist trying the filter (Kenyan, I think) and getting an oat flat white to go. Both were amazing! I got a decent selection of pastries to take home - very, very reasonably priced for high quality, fresh pastries. The pastel de nata was something special! And the almond croissant! I couldn’t help but to taste them all when I got home (before I had to share). Lastly, I think they had some of the friendliest staff I’ve ever met! I own a coffee shop and I think customer service matters more to the experience than anything. A good flat white will turn sour with bad service! Even though they were absolutely rushed off their feet they still made time to have meaningful interactions with customers. Amazing time. Worth paying the tolls to get to Dublin - I’ll...

This is a newer branch that they’ve open. It has a limited menu compared to the Francis street branch and will minimum seating, but the food and service doesn’t disappoint. The staff are very friendly and always chatting and serving food with a smile.

The food: pastries are all delicious and they’ve specials from time to time which should he devoured - chocolate croissant is our favourite korean tofu bap was amazing (it’s no longer in the menu, they should bring it back!) cauliflower bap was nice too (no longer in the menu due to no demand seemingly) halloumi sandwich was nice and filling Personally, I don’t like mayo a lot so the sandwiches with ranch are a bit heavy for me but the herbs they add in the ranch (dill I think) are quite nice! coffee is amazing; one of the few places that knows how to steam...

The food is sooo good! I can't recommend it enough! I used to live near their other location on Francis street, which is also amazing, so I was excited when I heard they opened another one here. The croissant with cream and strawberry was divine! So light and fluffy and fresh and buttery. It's hard to find a decent croissant in Dublin so this one really stuck out in terms of quality and taste.

The savoury food is just as delicious and satisfying. The staff is friendly and the overall atmosphere lovely.

The only downside is the traffic nearby. Francis street is a little quieter and calmer in that regard. Not the Cafés fault of course, but something to keep in mind!

All in all I can warmly recommend the Two...
