About GRAFTON STREET Cafe

Welcome to Bewley’s on Grafton Street, Ireland’s most iconic and historic café. For almost a century, this has been a beloved gathering place for locals and visitors alike, where great coffee and delicious food are enjoyed in a truly unique setting. 

We are proud to roast, grind, bake, craft, pour and serve in this celebrated building, with a mosaic façade and stained glass artworks that are an intrinsic part of the fabric of Dublin.

Bewley’s isn’t just a café – it’s a cultural institution that has helped shape Ireland’s artistic and literary heritage. A hub for artists, writers and musicians from legendary characters such as James Joyce, W.B. Yeats and Samuel Beckett to contemporary figures like Dermot Kennedy and Bob Geldof.  

Enjoy the aromas of freshly roasted coffee and bakery confections, then embrace the chatter and clatter, laughter and warmth that have been synonymous with Bewley’s for generations. You can also take in the buzz of Grafton Street from our outdoor terrace – one of the hottest people watching spots in town.

Planning a visit? We have lots of space for walk-ins and we also take online bookings for up to ten guests. We look forward to welcoming you soon.
