07/09/2025: A delicious Dublin delight—where tradition meets comfort
Mannings Bakery & Café is the kind of place that makes you feel instantly at ease. Established in 1952 and still family-run, it’s a genuine artisan gem tucked into the heart of Dublin, serving up handcrafted treats with a side of heartfelt hospitality.
We stopped in for coffee and pastries, and both were absolutely delicious. The coffee was rich and smooth—clearly made with care—and the pastries were fresh, flaky, and indulgent without being overdone. Whether you’re craving a buttery croissant, a cream-filled slice, or something more adventurous, Mannings delivers with flavor and finesse.
The café itself is a lovely space to relax. It’s clean, welcoming, and thoughtfully laid out, with just the right balance of cozy charm and modern polish. We lingered over our treats, soaking in the calm and watching locals pop in for their favorites—a testament to the bakery’s loyal following.
What truly stood out was the outstanding service. The staff were friendly, attentive, and genuinely warm. You get the sense that they care not just about the food, but about the people who walk through the door. That kind of hospitality is rare, and it makes all the difference.
Whether you’re grabbing breakfast, celebrating with a custom cake, or just treating yourself to a quiet moment with coffee and something sweet, Mannings Bakery & Café is a place that feels like home—only with better pastries.
