The new kitchen in The Stables has opened up so many doors for us – more space, more room to play, experiment and explore and a definite freedom of not being restricted by the busy-ness of the cafe. One of the first things we did with the new kitchen was to start making all our [...]
We are looking for someone to join the kitchen team in January. As our kitchen doesn’t follow the traditional head chef – sous chef structure you should be capable of ALL aspects of the kitchen. From creation of dishes and flavour pairing to prep systems, fridge management, stock & ordering and connecting with customers [...]
We have been renovating a beautiful 19th century building next to us on Fumbally Lane – The Fumbally Stables … a project that will soon be coming to fruition and will be the birth of many interesting and worthwhile projects in food and coffee.

We wanted to do something that acknowledged the island and perhaps a nod to a time gone by. With the lost cooking [...]
A little bit of healthy competition is good for us all, right? We hosted the Irish Aeropress Championships last week, and cheered on our own Timea D. who unfortunately didn’t make it through. Massive well done to Monika from Coffee Angel who will be heading off to Rimini in August to represent [...]
There is always a bowl of sprouts somewhere in the line-up for lunch service, never more than an arms length away. Sprouts are INSANELY good for you, like, mind-bogglingly nutritious. And so beautiful. The beetroot pinks are probably our favorites at the moment, they are incredible on a plate and my god do they [...]
Our Specials change every two days. At the end of every month the kitchen sits down and goes through the menu for the following month. This is where we get to play around, try out new ideas, hone in on old ones and generally keep the juices flowing. All of our chefs have an equal [...]
