Well, I reckon this place is fine despite some of the negative press it’s received. We came here for a naming day function which had a lot of kids. The location with the play areas is perfect. I can see why a food snob wouldn’t like this place but not someone who just wanted a casual snack with the kids. The food was fine at this function. Good three point sandwiches, mini pizzas, spring rolls, different types of sausage rolls etc. The best things were the battered fish pieces which were really lovely. I had good chats to both the blond headed lady and the young blond man who’ve been discussed in multiple reviews. They were both absolutely lovely. We had a good afternoon here. I would very happily return. It’s a 3.5 for me but given there’s no half marks it has to be rounded up to a 4.
Tucked away under the Phoenix Park library, and serves great coffee! A welcome treat for parents of young children who need this sort of beverage to keep them recharged enough to deal with the boundless energy of their young kids running around in Phoenix Park nearby.
All these other reviews are stupid. This place is great for a quick coffee and quick meal, it isn't very gourmet but you get what you pay for if I wanted to go to a gourmet cafe I wouldn't be looking in a park anyway. My son and daughter love eating here when we go to the park. All the other reviews are based on the owner being rude which I find stupid too as the lady is lovely so is her daughter. Please give this place a try you will not be disappointed

This cafe has it all. It is perfectly positioned within an arms' reach of the famous phoenix park playground where you can enjoy all of the food that is freshly prepared whilst supervising your young ones. I called the owner 2 weeks in advance to book a party of 10 children and 6 adults and she scheduled me in for my date of choice and I couldn't be happier with how well it was organised. We ordered our coffees, muffins, baby chinos, cookies, pies and focaccias and it was brought out to us in a timely fashion and we all enjoyed it throughly. I particularly liked the coffee at the Phoenix park cafe and I am a harsh coffee critic. I loved the fact that after the food was consumed, the children went and played for hours while we sat comfortably whilst still supervising them and had 2 more coffees each because they were so delicious! The staff there were helpful and kind and asked us about our day which is a nice touch and something that will definitely draw me back. I have had children's parties at other out door events but this was a step up from that and was professionally handled with a lovely welcoming and familiar feel even though I hadn't been before. I would also like to note that the food we ordered was certainly not microwaved or un fresh, it all tasted beautiful and hit the spot for the kids and the adults and guess what, you can even grab a beer! All in all, I will be coming back for the coffee and the freshly made food!!!! Thank you Phoenix park cafe! 10/10 for making a little girl's party go fantastically well!
Long wait time for chips and sandwiches, but good coffee and service. Did not speak to the lady mentioned in other reviews but the young man who served us and made coffee was polite and gave great service. Good location next to the park and worth a visit for take away coffee
Hidden Gem. Great cafe for cyclists and kids. Awesome playground. Make this place the end point of a long ride with kids along the bike track. Friendly service.
Lovely place. I stumbled across this cafe by accident. I'm just sad I hadn't found it ealier. Looking over a beautiful parkland setting, I enjoyed a very attractively priced latte and toasted sandwich which arrived promptly despite the fact that the kitchen looked to be having a busy period.
The woman serving me even had time for some friendly chit-chat.
All in all, I was most impressed.
I thought Phoenix Park Cafe was wonderful. The children's playground is huge, the park has great facilities and is a great little spot to visit. The cafe is cute, the customer service was lovely, coffee and food of a high standard and they even had a children's party on there while I visited. A very nice find. Would recommend it to anyone.
We hosted our sons first birthday party here and everything was very well organised. Debra was amazing and took care of everything for me. I love the location of the cafe and its especially beautiful in autumn. The food was really good too with lots of options available. I'd highly recommend this place for a lovely lunch (the park is really cool) and definitely for hosting parties. Thanks so much Debra!
Nice cafe near the playground
Has indoor and outdoor seating
Hot food available and scones an d cakes and of course coffee and drinks. Can hire cafe for kids party's .inside cage has area to rf children to draw. They also do not chips.
Visited this place for a coffee and found a great spot for reading, surrounded by green garden. Lovely place
Nice park for young kids from 2 years and up to maybe 9 or 10. I like how the whole play ground is enclosed so the young kids can't run out easily (one way in and one way out) and the cafe is just opposite the playground which is handy.
