Despite corporate coffee chains on every corner, Dublin’s indie coffee shop scene is thriving. Cracked sidewalks and narrow laneways can lead you to unexpected sanctuaries. Next time you’re thinking of getting a pumpkin spice latte, instead, enjoy a matcha latte or a fresh pot of elderflower and apple tea at the hidden north-side gem Love is Art, or sip a hot flat whitewhile you watch the world go by out the windows at Little Bird. This a short video of a stroll to some of the best coffee shops in Dublin 8 and the city centre.
Music used – Sprawl V.2 by The Last Sound.
