Pause Cafe in Dublin

13/04/2025: Does exactly that Cheese and wine Alternatively you can have Wine and Cheese. Either way a great selection

12/04/2025: This spot operates as both a wine and cheese shop and a very small wine bar, offering a limited selection of plates — mainly cheese, charcuterie, and sandwiches. Cheese options are priced at €10 for a single portion or €18 for a plate of three. One major drawback is the single queue, shared by both retail customers and those dining in. At busy times, this leads to long waits. Once you place your order, the wine is served immediately — but the pours feel quite small compared to other wine bars. Unfortunately, the food takes noticeably longer to arrive, and by the time our cheese plate reached the table, the glass of wine was nearly finished. While the selection of cheese and wine seems solid, the combined retail and dine-in setup doesn’t work well in such a small space unless you visit during off-peak hours. With so many better wine bars in the area, I left feeling underwhelmed.
