Food, service, value was excellent as usual. There was a bit of a breeze coming through the door. That was the only complaint. Everything else was great.

Café
Donnybrook
About the restaurant
Happy Out is adding another string to its bow and taking on the Dublin brunch scene. At the weekend there will be an adventurous brunch menu with a variety of coffees and brewing methods to explore. During the week, we will be giving the people what the want; coffee, toasties and a full breakfast menu.



There are seats in the middle around the open kitchen so you can enjoy the hustle and bustle of everything going on. Down the back there is a bright mezzanine area with a skylight and then we have some outdoor table in our lovely sun trap out the back.



This brick and mortar style cafe is the love child of one of the owners, Brian. Taking inspiration from his travels around the world and his family kitchen. The breakfast tacos from his trips around Central/South America, The Levain flatbread from his sourdough starter and soufflé pancakes from eating his way around Japan.

If you want a table then pre book . We saw a couple of people turned away at midday on a Friday as they had no booking. Menu is perfect . All day Brunch was very welcome . Service was very professional . A good few steps above your regular breakfast cafe. Highly recommended .

Loss of the alcohol license means no booze...detracts from the overall experience. Hopefully they'll get it back soon...

About the restaurant
Saba (meaning happy meeting place) is a Thai and Vietnamese eatery and cocktail bar. It is located at 22 Upper Baggot Street in Dublin 4 on the banks of the Grand canal beside the Aviva and RDS Stadium. It is situated on a beautiful Victorian street with lots of interesting shops, cafes, restaurants and many of Dublin’s most famous historic pubs.

Don’t worry about the weather, in our Secret Garden, we have you covered rain or shine. Join us for outdoor dining underneath one of our canopies. We also have heaters for when it gets a bit chilly. It’s a funky space with beautiful Italian furniture, blended with some traditional church pews, festoon lighting and stunning graffiti artwork by Subset.

Our kitchen is open from noon until late seven days a week, so whether you fancy a light lunch, dinner with wine, cocktails or weekend brunch, we are the perfect venue. Takeaway is available from all Saba locations.

Great variety of dishes offered on the menu. We got a lovely seat by the window so we could see the canal and the privacy was well received. The lunch provided was excellent- the flavour of the cauliflower soup was lovely, not too creamy but yet creamy enough to be delicious. The bowl was so big it hid the long piece of toasted bread beneath it on the plate! I only noticed it afterwards. The arancini balls were moist on the inside, crispy on the outside- perfectly done. And the coffee is good. Staff excellent, professional yet friendly and the ambiance of the restaurant is warm and welcoming. We will be back. Highly recommended.
