It's the best brunch I've tried in Dublin so far. I loved the Argentinian Sausage and the Dulce de Leche pancakes.

The food is to die for, the atmosphere is great and the staff are really nice. I've been back a couple of times already for some takeaway banana bread with dulce de leche and hot dulce de leche latte and omg.

On my final morning in Dublin (whilst also feeling a little bit on the delicate side), I visited Alma for a late breakfast.

My expectations were very high, yet they were still met in the bright and tranquil café. The service was good, and I was seated on one of the stools by the window.

The pancakes were exceptional. I've had many solid pancakes at brunch places before, but there was a freshness and a lightness to these that I'd never experienced.

Perhaps it had something to do with the dulce de leche, or maybe it was down to the generous mixture of fruit that the pancakes were served with.

Whatever the case, they were absolutely fantastic, and alongside the warm, cosy latte that I was brought, the overall meal was very satisfying. It certainly served to cure my hangover.

When I return to Dublin, I'll make sure to stop by Alma. 😊

The pancakes were amazing. I also had the savoury pancakes with poached eggs and salmon, which were also great. Staff were friendly and were happy with the service. The space is quite small and you might have to share a table with others.

Food was really nice but portions were quite small for the price. The sandwich I had was €11 and only had one very thin sausage in it. I think other dishes had better portion sizes maybe as some looked much bigger. The food seemed to be high quality though and good flavours. The cafe runs on time slots so pretty much everyone in the restaurant leaves at the time of your booking and then the seats fill up immediately with new bookings. The staff are lovely and explained everything seeing as it was our first time.

Absolutely mind blowing wonderful!! Arguably best breakfast in Dublin! What a gem! The cafe is rather small so reservations are a must.

Disclaimer: this is not your plain tasteless Irish breakfast! The taste and presentation is world class.

One of my friends living in Dublin mentioned this is the best brunch place in the city. Did not pay much attention to this comment but now I am totally convinced. From the sumptuous avocado toast with perfectly poached eggs to the decadent French toast adorned with fresh berries, each dish was a work of art. The ingredients were undoubtedly fresh and of the highest quality, resulting in a burst of flavors with every bite. The food looked amazing and had flavor, in one word: delicious. The service was fast, we got the orders in quickly.
