East Village Coffee in Dublin

An amazing coffee place, friendly staff and great food. I had the full Irish breakfast and it was delicious.

Food and coffee is absolutely stunning, got the Green eggs and Ham and asked for substitutions for certain items and it was no worries at all. Everyone is so friendly and service is top notch

Had a lovely breakfast here. Lovely staff and surroundings.

Love this spot as it’s quaint and not busy when I usually visit. I’ve only had the coffee but it’s superb and really enjoy the atmosphere of the cafe. Definitely need to pop down for pastries and açai!

A lovely crew here who always give great service to go along with the tasty food a great coffee... I am always trying to acknowledge this good service with a tip but the staff skip past the option!

Really nice coffee and pastry Nice staffs

Little gem of a place discovered with Googles help while in the locality - recommended for both coffee & food

the two blonde sisters are amazing they make the best coffee and always always with a smile.

Coffee is lovely. The eggs I got for lunch were fantastic. Great atmosphere around the place. A well run establishment

Have been going here for years, and at one time very regularly. The last time I went I asked for a simple Americano to go. From what I remember the price was quite high for a simple black coffee but whatever, cost of running a business etc etc. What really annoyed me though was the person at the till then spun the screen around to ask if I wanted to leave a tip when paying. I absolutely despise this tipping culture. Tipping is for when someone goes above and beyond with their service. This person wasn't even making the coffee they just took the payment and barely looked in my direction when doing so. What am I tipping for then exactly? Why is this even an option? Are the staff not being paid a fair wage and need to make it up with tips? Or is it just greed. Either way, I haven't gone back since and won't be, not that the owner will care and will probably leave a tongue in cheek comment under this. Cut out the greed, in today's economy you should be grateful we're all not eating and drinking coffee at home, but instead spending our money with your business, we're all being squeezed for every penny. We shouldn't have to feel shamed into hitting the tip button wherever we go because it certainly feels like a form of peer pressure as you will be judged when you hit no, and then question is what you ordered going to be made to the same standard because you're after annoying the staff? I'll happily remove this review and leave a better one if that tipping option is removed. But I can't imagine the owner will care enough about my review 😂. Rant over.
