TWO FOR TEA
You can get a cup of tea anywhere, but these are places where tea - in all its myriad infusions - is that little bit
special (and they do a great coffee too).
CLEMENT & PEKOE
CAFE
(
www.clementandpekoe.com
;
50 South William St; 8am-7pm Mon-Fri, 10am-6pm Sat, noon-6pm Sun) Our
favourite cafe in town is this hipster version of an Edwardian tearoom. Walnut floors, art-deco chandeliers and
wall-to-wall displays of handsome tea jars are the perfect setting to enjoy the huge selection of loose leaf teas and
carefully made coffees, all for around €3. It's the kind of place you'd find in Brooklyn.
WALL & KEOGH
CAFE
(
www.wallandkeogh.ie
; 45 Richmond St South; 8.30am-8.30pm Mon-Fri, 11am-7pm Sat & Sun) The Irish
love their tea, and this marvellous new cafe is the place to enjoy your choice of 150 different types of them,
served in ceramic Japanese teapots with all the care of a traditional tea ceremony. They also serve fabulous coffee
and, if you're peckish, sandwiches, baked goods and even sushi.
