Pause Café & Wine Bar

In Dublin 2, Pause Cafe lives up to its name - a daytime coffee haven that shifts effortlessly into an easygoing evening venue as night falls, making it the perfect spot to linger from lunch through to dinner.

The kitchen leans Italian, favouring honest flavours and time-honoured pairings. The oven-baked aubergine parmigiana is deeply comforting, while the tagliatelle carbonara delivers rich, authentic depth.

Pinsa is a pleasure here too - ranging from a classic Margherita to a bold diavola with a satisfying kick.

To finish, desserts keep it classic - an amaretto-kissed affogato and a traditional tiramisu that needs no introduction.

With glasses clinking and music in the background, Pause Cafe makes lingering feel effortless - book your table now and press pause on the day!
