Two Pups

You'll find this spot tucked into Francis Street in the Liberties, where the breakfast crowd mingles with locals grabbing proper coffee and the weekend brunch brigade descends in force. The name suggests something playful, and they deliver on that promise with a menu that hits all the right notes without any of the pretentious nonsense you'd find closer to town. The kitchen knows what it's doing here — whether you're after a decent full Irish or something a bit more inventive for the weekend. It's the sort of place where you can roll up on a Tuesday morning for a quick bite or settle in with the papers on Saturday. The coffee's sound, the portions are generous, and the prices won't have you questioning your life choices.
