The Little Cactus - Speciality Coffee & Plants in Dublin

Delicious oat milk cappuccino with pain au chocolate. Totally recommend!

My boyfriend and I recently started going to the little cactus. Their macchiatos are so-so and the matcha isn’t smooth the way it’s supposed to be. I wouldn’t usually say this is a big deal but considering the price and also having “speciality coffee” in the name I did expect more. The iced oat chai was lovely but didn’t really satisfy my sweet tooth like most do. My boyfriend prefers a more savoury taste and he loved it. Little cactus is a lovely spot on a sunny day, assuming there are enough chairs outside. Inside there aren’t any comfy seats and the atmosphere is quite cold. There always seems to be a manager in the one comfy-looking seat! I also totally get the industrial look they are going for with the floor, but it just isn’t working and makes the place look half-done. Lastly, I’d like to shoutout the Australian girl who works there. She’s very sweet and makes it obvious how much she genuinely cares about customer service. Thanks for making our day.

A tasty cheese toasty and friendly staff. Nice coffee too!

Cute little caffe in Smithfield, overall cute bar with lots of little cactuses (of course) scattered all over the place. The toasties were very good, tasty ham and cheese with nice sea salt sprinkled on top, tho a bit pricey in my opinion. My girlfriend went with the vegan option, the harissa chickpea, good mix of ingredients and overall spicy due to the paprika on top. Recommended for the area and the menu, cute spot for a meeting friends in Smithfield.

Nice atmosphere, a bit messy but ok. It was our second time. First time 4 weeks ago a guy with afro said they were closing and didn't let us in. Seriously, we knew that but still 20 minutes left and never asked what we wanted, like take away coffes for example? This attitude will make customers avoid this place unfortunately. You are not a big restaurant kitchen with a lot of equipment to clean, 2coffees won't kill you.

Not long off the train from Portlaoise, I was headed towards the Botanical Gardens in Glasnevin. I decided to walk up towards Cabra as I knew it was in the general direction of where I was headed. I stumbled upon a little gem of a place The Little Cactus coffee shop, funnily enough, I heard about this place opening not long before but this trip was a completely random pitstop to arrive at. I was so glad that I found this shop with plant sales and vintage clothing and a few things of interest. I didn't waste time, my first order was a turmeric latte which was served with oat milk, really tasty, I took some photos and had a chat with Jamie the owner about cacti plants and hemp, the layout was amazing to see, the customer service was great, and music in the background was vibey. After all the chats and time spent there, I left with a cactus plant, a tea infuser, a pack of hemp tea and a bag of cough drops to lead me on my way. What a great spot to find on my travels, will defo return at some point. Really happy to see places like this in Ireland. Reminds me of Amsterdam...

I love going there. The service is amazing. They’re all so sweet. I love the atmosphere. I enjoy being there so much I don’t even mind paying €8 for a sandwich ( it’s always good enough to be worth the price anyway)

Love this little cafe and come to it often. Great coffee and the staff is lovely. We love the sandwiches as well and my husband prefers them to others in the area because they are made in house.

Best coffee and staff are awesome 💖

Best coffee in Dublin. Sandwiches are to die for. Staff are also brill. 10/10. Must try if you're in Stoneybatter.
