Westland Cafe in Dublin

The place is pleasant, though in the typical style of new coffee shops. What really stands out online is the hot chocolate: made with real chocolate, yet disappointingly thin in texture. A shame, since I went specifically to try it because real hot chocolate is rare to find in Dublin.

Best coffee I had for a while!! Lovely guidance for selecting a coffee and the ability to taste different ones before buying 🫶🏽 Modern interior, nice staff, great coffee. 5/5

I wanted a matcha latte, and have always loved the coffee at Bear Market. I ordered a matcha and took a sip - it was sweetened, unfortunately. Bear Market possibly only sources pre-sweetened matcha (not my taste), so I would recommend either offering to customers to sweeten it or not when they order it, or changing matcha supplier (if you want more people to order matcha).

It’s not the kind of café you’d usually stay in for long, but I always hang around a bit when I’ve got my flat white and toasted sandwich. The morning buns are amazing and definitely worth coming back for.
