You can't beat it!

Like most people, I love everything about coffee. I love the taste of it, the fact it gives me a good kick up the arse in the morning to go about my day, the whole activity of "going for a coffee" and predominately the copious chin-wags I've had with friends over them. There really is nothing like it, and when you start to love it, you really love it. Since Dublin is a hub of little independent coffee chains, and I am fortunate enough to work in the heart of the city - I've been spending my days sourcing and seeking out the best cups in town for the past six months now. I would say I have a good eye for a "cute place", which is the first thing that always draws my attention. Secondly, I LIVE on Instagram, so this is another way I do some serious research/stalking and then thirdly, I make it my mission to go and try the coffee in these locations, take in the atmosphere and rate the overall experience. And I can confidently say the following 10 make a deadly cup of coffee, have an inviting space and really lovely staff. In no particular order... they are...
