    Such a great find for breakfast & we were glad that our hotel recommended JK’s to us (the hotel kitchen was closed for breakfast). The staff were welcoming & friendly plus they were knowledgeable on the ingredients and suppliers, including the delicious locally sourced blend of Earl Grey Tea. The menu provide so much choice for all appetites and food preferences - it was difficult to chose! Only one minor area for improvement was the need to toast the bread more as it was a bit lightly done & not crispy (but accept this is a personal choice)

    As always friendly staff, good food and atmosphere. One of the best cafes in Dublin and if you haven’t been well worth a visit. I always book in advance at the weekend as it’s very popular.
