We always look for a non Starbucks coffee shop for our morning Joe. We found this one hidden in an old Victorian arcade. Super clean and bright premises and displays; the staff was courteous and attentive. I prefer my cappuccinos drier but as long as it’s not Starbucks I was very happy

A little gem of a coffee shop, spotlessly clean and tidy. The coffee is delicious and there's a nice range of snacks and food, the staff are fantastic and welcoming and I will certainly be back again soon

Beautiful spot. Probably the best hot chocolate I've had in any café it was absolutely perfect. Staff are so friendly and welcoming! Very relaxing spot to hang out with friends or going solo! Highly recommend

Nice coffee in location, old arcade behind the General Post Office. Staff friendly, service quick, but be warned current regs in Ireland mean to sit inside you require proof of Covid vaccination. I was asked & current Scottish Government proof is not to international standards.

Best coffee in Europe! And we arrived here after Oslo, Bergen, Copenhagen, Berlin and Paris. Great food - soup great and pork sausage roll fabulous, as was quiche. Great people, terrific food locally sourced and home made.

Great coffee shop with a very cozy atmosphere. Coffee is fruity (not Italian) which is great if you like it. I personally like bitter coffee more but this is the best fruity coffee I've had in Dublin!

Decent Flat white (4/5 green stars)
I stopped by The Art of Coffee in GPO arcade off Henry’s Street to have a flat white (€2.60). Staff members were very helpful and friendly. The coffee was strong, tasty and not over-roasted. Too many coffees are over-roasted. The foam wasn’t the silkiest I've ever had but it was decent – I was expecting to be blown away by the foam since they advertise their barista awards outside the café (although some of the awards are for latte art, and mine had no art – wah!).
I’m also giving them 4/5 “green stars” for social and environmental impact. To-go drinks are delivered with no lid, encouraging customers to forgo the plastic. Soy and almond milk are available. Their beans are for sale in paper-based bags and they also sell them in 1 Kg sizes, reducing packaging a little. Most food on display (including sandwiches) is packaging-free (my current pet peeve is sandwiches in plastic clamshells). Along with their house blend they also offer a single-origin coffee, which changes every few months. Their Harcourt Rd. branch has a Saturday brunch menu that includes organic porridge, free-range eggs, and simple vegetarian fare like avocado toast. The main thing I’d like to know about is their coffee sourcing – sustainability and fair pricing. Their website and coffee packages don’t offer any info on this. Have contacted them - will update if they reply!
