Cafe Sol

Service is quick, fast and they offer everything you want to stuff your face with in the morning. They are fairly cheap as well — so you will get away with a hot beverage and pastry for less than a fiver.
It reminds me a little of what an Ikea coffee shop would look like. You walk in and pick your items and walk straight back out again. Fast turn around, but don´t expect to much service — they offer you speed.

Best cappachino on baggot street! Baristas are quick and efficient and the wait is never too long! Would recommend

I really like the mango passion fruit yogurt parfait here which is what this review is really about. If you like yogurt and if you like mango/​passion fruit and if you like granola on your yogurt… get this. It’s a cute and small portion but just about right.

Cute place for a quick to go meal. I had the tomato basil soup, which came with bread. Café Sol is bodega/​deli style kind of place. Great place if you’re on a budget, 2.60 euro for lunch? Yes please!

I didn’t think Café Sol would be my type of place at all but to my surprise and delight it proudly boasts an ever-​evolving product range bringing locals, tourists and students alike an assortment of great tasting food for reasonable prices. What also sets it apart is that it places strong emphasis on developing and maintaining relationships with their customers.
Upon my first ever visit I had to take a double take at the blackboard displaying the day’s specials because they were so cheap. I genuinely thought there was a typo and even checked with a member of staff that it wasn’t an error. The Tomato and Basil Soup served daily is only € 1.99, and for this you do not receive something derisory on account that it is so cheap, but instead a generous serving of warm, wholesome soup.
Their sandwiches cater for simple and gourmet tastes including quality meat, fish and vegetarian fillings. I often go for the flavoursome ‘Coronation Chicken and Mixed Leaves on Rustic Brown’ for € 4.25. I also relish in their healthy, hearty and homemade soups that are very high quality made with wholesome and low-​fat ingredients. The shop assistants are always happy to offer you a sample cup so you can taste how good they are.
Another favourite that I like to munch on is the Chicken Noodle Salad (€ 6.95) featuring the scrumptious combination of Chinese Noodles, Chicken, Sesame Seeds, Peppers, Spring Onions, Bean Sprouts, Sugar Snap Peas and Sweet Soya Dressing. Café Sol’s salads are recurrently crammed full with a mixture of the finest lean meats, crispy vegetables, mixed leaves, pasta and homemade dressings.
If yourself and your mates are planning to take your sandwiches or salads to eat in the park or within the grounds of Trinity College then how about getting a Flask of Tea that serves enough for 10 cups for € 16. A jovial addition to any group lunch.
