Tiller + Grain in Dublin

Wow experience! Most delicious, original and healthy food, best scones I ever head, and nice vibes with super friendly owner - coming from Trinity College or National Gallery visit, Tiller + Grain is the place to go to eat, drink a coffee or chat and chill afterwards, and the amazing thing on top is that it's sunny inside with a yellow design, even when it rains outside 😀!

This is a special gem. As a foreigner, I was greeted kindly, everyone was helpful and the food and coffee were excellent. This small shop is a real stand out among many tourist traps in this area. They are serving delicious fresh salads, soups, and sandwiches and it appears to be the place locals come for lunch (a good sign). I had my best oat latte in Dublin here, no fuss, and no one hurrying me away. I was able to sit in peace and enjoy a good book. The owner is lovely and so were the staff. Thanks for making me feel welcome!!

Easily the best salad I have ever eaten. The owner was so so lovely, we were unsure on what to order so she made us a lovely selection and we had a lovely chat with her. All the staff were so friendly. Would highly recommend!

This place is very cute. They do a selection of salads, soups of the day, and many freshly baked goods. The owner Claire is really friendly and helpful and her team that were working when I visited were all very friendly. There are a lot of regulars that have such a good rapport with the team, which gave the cafe such a cozy vibe. I got a spicy carrot soup and some foccacia, a cookie and a cappuccino. The soup was very tasty, nice and warming for the rainy weather. The foccacia had a really nice texture and was sprinkled with fresh sea salt. The cookie was a dark chocolate chip brown sugar cookie, which was also lightly sea salted and it was a really good balance of sweet and salty. Overall, this place is so lovely to visit. Definitely recommend.

Tiller + Grain, Dublin: If you’re looking for a clean, fresh, and nourishing start to your day in Dublin, Tiller + Grain is a must-visit.

Great food, great vibe, and great value. Highly recommended

Amazing food, great coffee, lovely people

I've got a turmeric latte. It was good but nothing more than what you can get anywhere else in Dublin, except the price. Slightly more expensive than I thought but overall good

I would sell a minor organ to have Tiller + Grain in my kitchen every day. There are salads, and then there are salads—the kind that make you question why you’ve ever settled for anything less. Roasted squash that tastes like it was kissed by the sun, charred broccoli with actual personality, grains that somehow feel both hearty and elegant—every bite is a masterclass in how to make healthy food wildly exciting. And then there’s owner Clair. A total legend. The kind of person who makes you feel like your lunch was made just for you. The entire team? Impeccable. They move at lightning speed but still have time to crack a joke or remember that you always want the extra charred piece of cauliflower. The place itself is warm, welcoming, and always full of people who clearly get it. You leave feeling nourished, smug in the best way, and already planning your next visit. I adore Tiller + Grain. Adore. It. If it ever closes, I will personally chain myself to the counter.

Excellent trout salad - a real meal. Perfect.
