Try Southbank, a Harold's Cross cafe where brunch is kept simple and done well. Choose from the short menu, perhaps avocado and feta toast, and finish with an affogato in a quiet, tidy room.
Full description
Southbank is a low-key cafe in Harold's Cross that locals use for relaxed brunch and lunch. The menu is small but covers a range of tastes, with dishes such as avocado and feta toast with streaky bacon and coffee drinks including affogato.
Reviewers mention fast, attentive service, quiet music and a clean room, though it can get noisy when busy. A party of six reported the food was made to a high standard after booking early.
It is a good solo or small-group stop of around an hour.

Reviews
I had a lovely experience at Southbank Cafe in Dublin. The atmosphere is warm, stylish and relaxed, making it a great spot for brunch or a coffee catch-up. The food was fresh and well prepared, with a good selection of brunch favourites, and the coffee was speciality coffee ☕️ excellent.
