Bewley's (Dublin): Bewleys Cafe - The best breakfast in Dublin (294 words)

Bewleys Oriental Cafe on Grafton Street is the kind of cafe everyone wants to have near their home. We went last week on our trip to Dublin for breakfast and it was really good and a lovely atmosphere.

Bewley's was established around 1840 in Dublin by Joshua Bewley. There are now 3 Bewleys sites in Dublin, several in Ireland as a whole, several in England and 1 in Endinburgh and 1 in Japan. This is the kind of coffee house where you can sit and chat, read a newspaper for as long as you like. You never feel the staff wish you would leave, to free up a table. You can sit all afternoon if you like a read a book. Bewleys is actually famous for writers. A number of famous writers have been known to frequent Bewleys Coffee houses. Even today buddying authors are known to scribble their manuscipts there. The atmosphere is somewhat special. Bewleys is also ...  Read the complete review
