Side Door Restaurant in Dublin

Great café for breakfast, with the famous Irish coffee that gets your day off to a flying start! There are very few seats, so arrive early or be prepared to wait. The service is so efficient inside that it doesn't take long.

We hunted for a proper Irish Breakfast experience and found EXACTLY what we we sought. The Stage Door Café is a cozy spot in the Temple Bar area, slinging stellar food and exceptional experiences. From the sound of food sizzling nearby, to the new friends we met through table- sharing, and the quick-witted, sometimes cheeky quips from our server, Graham... we were having a blast before the food even arrived. The flavor and quality of the food are enough to explain why there's always a line out the door, but the atmosphere adds another dynamic element to the experience. Can't say enough great things about this place. Make the time to stop in for the food and the coffee! And while you're there, order the Irish Breakfast.

A light-and-dark atmosphere in true Dublin style. Very good Irish breakfast. The staff was distracted, but the food finally arrived, and it was good, leaving everyone happy.

Hi! I came across your café on Google Maps — it looks really aesthetic and well-loved. I noticed you don’t currently have a website. Many cafés nearby already use one for menu display, Google visibility, and customer trust — it really helps bring in more footfall. I’m a website developer and have worked with clients in the US, Canada, and Australia. I’m now expanding to Ireland and looking to work with a few cafés and restaurants there to build long-term relationships. For my first few clients in Ireland, I’m offering a full professional website at an introductory price of £300 (normally £1200). This is limited to the first 5 businesses as I’m focusing on quality work and building strong local references. The idea is simple — I build a great website for you, and once you're happy, you can refer me to others locally. You get a high-quality site at a very affordable price, and I get to grow through trusted recommendations. Win-win for both. Payment only after the website is live, fully functional, and you're satisfied with everything.

Great little spot for breakfast. Graham welcomed us, great sense of humor very friendly. Food was fab, 0 wait time for brekkie. After finishing a 12hr shift we were happy campers. Thanks Graham nd staff. We will be back.

Turned up at 6:30am off the ferry to the most friendly and warm welcome to Dublin one could ask for. Owner is an absolute gent. Irish breakfast hit the spot. Gem of a place. Support it and keep it going for many years to come.

Great experience, staff was super friendly and warm. Pricing is alright for the location. You’ll have to queue for a bit but I’d say it’s worth it.

An amazing traditional Irish breakfast, definitely a must when you’re in Dublin! The staff were lovely too.

Wow I love this place. It’s tiny, efficient, friendly and open early. I love the vibe. Prices are very reasonable. So glad I found this place.

Fantastic breakfast spot! The Stage Door Cafe was absolutely buzzing when we visited, yet the service never slipped. Special mention to Graham, who was excellent — super welcoming, friendly, and incredibly accommodating even while the place was out-the-door busy. You can really tell he takes pride in managing the cafe, and it shows in the atmosphere and service. Will definitely be back!
