An Bhialann - Brunch Club




An Bhialann is based in Ranelagh and again is one of the more meaty restaurants that do brunch at the weekend...












its nice and bright and not the kinda place that will crowd you out... 



they take coffee seriously here! 







The full Irish was a hit! 



and the Eggs Benedict with bacon... 


Perfectly soft! WIN!



Again, I was amused in the loos... seems to be a recurring thing now! 






quirky lamps to light the way... 



and yes the Iguana wallpaper sparkles... I KNOW! 

Check them out >>> HERE <<< 


Two Fifty Square - Brunch Club




A sneaky little find for Brunch Club this week... Two Fifty Square is just beside the swimming pool in Rathmines... and if you're a coffee junkie... I was last week I swear! Then you'll LOVE this little spot! 






The brunch menu has the usual suspects, no 'full irish' 
but there's a fab list of sandwiches and toasties to choose from!



... as well as cakes and goodies up at the counter to swoon over... 




Loads of space and it's got fab natural light pouring in so you can read the paper without a  torch... Does anyone else think some coffee shops are a bit too dark!? Just me... I'll be moaning about the young people next! 



Now... for the connoisseurs... Proper coffee... roasted, ground and smelling SO good.. 



and yes ... it was delicious... 

*chants*
... 10 and a half days ... 10 and a half days... 
NO! I'm loving my detox I SWEAR! 



But it's one of the nicest coffees I'd had in a long time!




All the goodies you need to roast up a fine bag of caffeine goodness! 




Now to the food... 



I went for the 'eggs which ever way you fancy with avocado on sour dough bread' ... and not being an avocado fan I treated myself to some bacon! WHAT ?! I'd been swimming! 



Bacon was crispy but not dry ... in other words perfect...



and they passed my 'melty-egg' test with flying colours! 



For the heathens that drink tea... you'll be catered for... but I'll judge you... no... I will... 



Up at the counter you're free to drool, swoon and indulge in all kinds of goodies... 






The wifi code... you don't need to ask ... 
it's what every cafe should have for their customers! 



and ta da... open Sundays! 



There's an outside space for the smokers/hardy folk! It's November people!

Farmer Browns - Brunch Club!


The other morning I was on my way back from an airport pick up... my family never seem to stay put... so we pit stopped in the traffic on Bath Ave to have some munchies in Farmer Browns... This place is fabulous! You'll be queueing on a Sunday morning so get there ahead of the hangover types... 

I'm a regular here... the parking is free at the weekends on most of the roads nearby and it was within walking distance for one of my gal pals... and recently its had a little face lift! 


Again its one of those quirky little out of the way places that people seem to know someone, who knows some one, who's been there... 



All the chairs and tables are different and its so quaint.. you can sit inside or outside.. and although its tightly packed you're not really on top of each other, but you will need to move the tables to squeeze in and out... but its SO worth it... 

We were the first customers the other day so I was able to take lovely pics without people giving me the evils thinking I'm stalking them! What?! It happens! 


By the time we left, the place was half full and the reserved signs were all over the place for lunch bookings... 



I indulged in the Sausage sandwich... it was breakfast and lunch together so I was covered points wise... 


The traveller had a pulled pork sandwich which I stole a mouthful without them knowing and it was AMAZING... carnivores... you're ALL set! 


Best thing... their sweet potato fries... no really... couple of months ago before a big game in Lansdowne Road *c'mon Leinster*...  a gang of us had munchies there and everyone raved about them.... just trust me on this one... have to be tasted to be believed... 


Hair of the dog, if you just can not cope!



ALWAYS ask for the specials!



For the sweet toothed amongst you... plus there's a fab little cake stand with rice crispy cakes and rocky roads... swoon... check out the amazing home made lemonade too!



All their meat is organic and local... and delicious! 'The Starvin Marvin' (Full Irish to you and me... ) is available all day long so what ever time you crawl out from under the duvet you'll be looked after...



The out door seating area has heating if it gets nippy and is dog friendly! I've seen many bow wows coming from their walk on Sandymount napping under the table...



If you're on your tod, no need to stare into your phone like Billy-no-mates... grab the paper or a mag and watch the world go by... if you see a half finished crossword, you're welcome!


Out front is a fab little garden with strawberries... rhubarb... herbs... freshly picked for  your lunch...



It's a perfect spot to just sit and have a gossip with a fancy cup of tea or face plant a burger when you're starvin' ...



The artwork on the walls changes regularly and is available to purchase... This Little  Piggy nearly came home with me...
