    This is a hidden gem!! It has every breakfast food imaginable whether you want a delicious fry or French toast or something healthy like a smoothie and it has all lunch options too! I couldn't find anywhere like it around here for ages and I'll definitely be back 😃

    Lovely place. Food is amazing. Totally disagree with other reviews on this saying it is not gorgeous but always one or two crankbags when you work with the public. I end up coming here most weekends. My personal favourites are the smoothies. The Buzzy Bee is to die for. Staff are always extremely pleasant and cheerful.

    I went to Simas Cafe for a brunch on the Weekend and I was extremely disappointed with the Irish Breakfast. This place served the hardest bacon I have ever seen in my life (not fresh and overcooked). After letting the waitresses know about the bacon, she solved the issue saying "I will let the chef know" instead of appologize and replacing that bacon or not charge for it. To sum up: Pricey for such low quality. Not recommended!

    5 star service today at Sima. We were served by the most fantastic staff member, who was so helpful and attentive. Can I please compliment his service, and all the team. It's a gem 💎 The Soup and sourdough were beautiful as were the coffee and tea. Little things like extra milk, bead toasted on request were no trouble. We really appreciated the extra effort , especially with my friends keys 😁 we will definitely be back soon !

    Was meeting some friends for Breakfast, and decided to check out this venue, The interior is fine, clean and comfortable, well spaced out, the menu was full of interesting suggestions, two of us opted for their full Irish, the other went for toast. The prices are on par with most similar greasy spoons in the local. The staff were polite but lacking enthusiasm or charm, and at this point it went downhill, our food arrived in a decent time. It was freshly cooked, on clean plates. cutlery was fine, the problem was the actual food, The hash browns were Lidl, quality, perhaps they where actually bought from Lidl, cheap, nasty, with a horrible taste of vegetable oil in every bite. The bread used for toast, again reminded me of the cheap white sliced pan you get in cheap bread section, devoid of taste, dour, nasty. The pudding and rashers where well cooked as was the sausages, only they are a little overpriced for Musgrave's basic breakfast items, the beans were a portion fit for a baby, tiny ramekin filled with yellow pack style beans, worse still was the eggs, the scrambled where dry, unseasoned, either made from a dry mix or they must spent too much time in a microwave, either way a knob of butter would of salvaged them. If the breakfast was 6 or 7 euro i am happy, but even Kay's generic full Irish puts this effort to shame. just under 11 euro I think next time ill do McDonald's at least there is value in it.

    Really lovely restaurant. The staff work as a great team and they make you feel so welcome. The food is always delicious and well presented. Coffee is good but I'd prefer it to be a bit stronger. It's also reasonably priced. Highly recommend.

    Good food and facilities, this cafe is kept very clean and the staff are nice. However, if you have a dog, avoid. While you can sit outside, you cannot sit under their canopy. You must sit on the street in the wind.

    My first time trying this cafe shop .. it was a big of let down .. went for the French toast we took away order .. emm the toast was nice but the size felt a bit weird .. I thought it would of been a nice thick and a nice loaf of bread prepared to become French toast .. felt more like bread out a a pan slice or cheap bread .. the French toast was thin . Didn’t taste horrible the flavours were there.. don’t think tho it felt like a proper French toast I’ve had in others places around the area thick not reheated in oven or microwave feeling from the one this morn .. don’t think I’d try here again .. the bacon was so hard even looking at In the counter looked awful my order didn’t haven bacon my friends did but her French toast and bacon went in the bin .. honestly tho the portions sizes of cups on the counters large medium and smalls are below average what you get in some coffee shops Very expensive place for bread there probably buying in supermarkets.. no catering pans in site ..

  • 2/5 phil c. 1 year ago on Google
    Was here this morning. And OMG I can't believe €1:50 for a spoon full of beans. It doesn't even fill a small pice of toast. I understand we all need to make a liven. But come on the the portions of beans was ridiculous. But your poach eggs for Perfect. I will drop back in the near future to see if you have made any changes. PS can you please itemize on the bill what you're paying for. As fill is not an item.

  • 4/5 Johnny B. 1 year ago on Google
    We eat here every couple of weeks, yummy! The food is decent and its decent service too. Nice relaxed casual vibe. Unfortunately the reason we only eat here every couple of weeks is because it costs €32 for both of us to have breakfast with tea and a smoothie. Still better than Kays Kitchen which is robbery! Take care folks.

    Went into Sima Cafe the other day and had such a lovely experience! I ordered the Salmon Egg Benedicts and everything was perfect. It had a beautiful presentation that already had you salivating before you even took a bite. The whole dish was delicious and has now become one of my favourites! The place is cute and cosy and the staff are nothing but friendly! A great place to go for a lovely breakfast or lunch

👍👍 After looking everywhere for lactose free milk, finally found it here in the food hall. Beautiful design, sort of art nouveau, with iron casted architecture, diverse shops and cosy interiors. Really recommend also for tourists who need to shop forgotten items.
