But Kennedys is about more than what’s on the table. 
It’s the catch-ups, the conversations and the little moments in between.
Thanks for making Kennedys part of yours.

I had a lovely breakfast in Kennedy's, Fairview. The pancakes were absolutely delicious. We were looked after by a lovely waitress, Maria. I saw her looking after an older lady. Maria was so kind, helpful and patient. She helped the older lady get sorted with a taxi.

The place is better than the pictures, it looks really new. They have tables in their 1st floor and the atmosphere is very calm, family friendly. I ordered the pancakes with bacon 🥓 I will come back again for another breakfast 🥞

We recently hosted our Parent Association coffee morning for a group of ten at Kennedy’s in Raheny, and the experience was exceptional.The tables were beautifully prepared for our group, and the service was warm, attentive, and highly professional throughout the entire morning. A special thank you to the team for recommending the homemade cake platter, the parents raved about them (and the organic coffee)!Highly recommended for a lovely bite to eat, or for a cosy group gathering. We're already looking forward to visiting again very soon!

A friend and I found this place near our college campus, we went here for some lunch . The staff were friendly and the place was inviting, we sat where we wanted and the atmosphere may have been loud but it shows that the place have loads of locals coming back to their cafe . Service was quick and the servers were lovely people, my friend got a sandwich and I got their vegetable soup. The food was delectable, the soup was full of flavour and had that Rich tomato taste it was delicious. My friend’s sandwich, they said it was lovely and filling but they were stunned about the stuffing, the stuffing they liked the most it had amazing texture and flavour, we both enjoyed this with our mocha and lemonade. The mocha tasted different to other mocha’s I tried in different coffee shops. I was amazed that they added something to get that sweet and creamy chocolate flavour, it added a lot of sweetness to the mocha which I liked , it was very innovative .

Pure joy on a plate. The pulled ham was tender, the mushrooms rich and earthy, and those poached eggs: absolute perfection, spilling golden warmth over every bite. The oat cappuccino was simply amazing: creamy, smooth, and comforting in every sip.The staff radiated happiness, making the whole place feel like a burst of sunshine. With its cozy charm and vibrant energy, it’s the kind of spot that leaves you full, smiling, and already planning your next visit.

I frequent this cafe and their two others that are local - cannot fault their overall standards , BUT I have a serious complaint about their SCONES - being undersized and very small overall …..That was my review from months back - I’m delighted to say now that after frequented all their restaurants the size of their scones has improved which is good value overall . The standard is still delicious so well done Management !

I stopped by Kennedy's while on a little staycation in Clontarf with my Mum and I was so pleased to find vegan options on their lunch menu! But I was especially blown away by their selection of vegan treats- so much so that I tried both their dark chocolate and pear roll and their apple and cinnamon roll, both to die for. The atmosphere was cosy and laid-back and the staff absolutely lovely! I totally recommend Kennedy's for a nice meal or afternoon tea!

We love this place! Location is great and interior is clean and well presented. We had an amazing full Irish breakfast on Saturday. Food and coffee were really good! Staff are lovely, always smiling and they made us feel very welcome, especially the manager who attended us with great professionalism, attention and humor creating a comfortable and friendly energy. A big thank you! :) I don’t normally posts reviews but it exceed our expectations and 5 stars are well deserved!
