Kennedy’s Food Store

Great breakfast spot, very friendly staff and the prices are really reasonable for a good big breakfast! Lots of nice bread options and great coffee! They also sell gourmet food and drinks, a great hidden gem!

Have popped in here a few times for the most (seriously) delicious gluten free bread — so tasty it doesn’t need butter, although the jam is quite yummy for a sweet treat. Their coffee alone is worth going back for and the staff are very helpful and polite. It’s a small space, but very cosy, cute and bright. Love the cups on the walls! A happy place :)

Good tea, good coffee, good food. Food portion on the border of being small. You definitely won’t be disappointed but lacking of wow factor.

Excellent sandwiches. Fresh meats and bread. The brown bread was awesome, just like grand mom used to make. The waitstaff is friendly and attentive. Highly recommended.

This is a great local eatery and a great place for breakfast. Fresh produce and great coffee, a must for lazy Sunday mornings!

This is a great local pitstop. And worth the trip if you’re anywhere in the area. A delicious bistro upstairs and downstairs due the usual but very tasty deli fare. Great sambos, hot dishes such as lasagne, pasta bake, fennell and chilli risotto — good value and very tasty. And the brownies– amazing!

Nice little place for breakfast/​brunch. Haven’t tried it for dinner yet. The food is excellent; tasty, varied and relatively reasonably priced. The staff are very welcoming and helpful. One of the best things about Kennedy’s is the great selection of artisan breads. I would literally commit crimes to get the bread! One word of warning though, if you want to go for Sunday brunch get there early. Its very popular and can fill up fast.

Food is delicious and certabily well presented and prepared waiting for meal to arrive is not long in comparison to many other places I’ve been it’s very clean always someone cleaning regularly after every customer very nice manner and no rudeness it’s very local and convenient for an evening meal

Found my new brunch hang out on the northside. Love their brekkie and homemade brown bread. Lattes are lush! :)

Had breakfast sandwich and a latte. Both perfect. Seriously!

Used to go here quite often when we lived in Clontarf. Great place for breakfast and or getting a sandwich, muffin or coffee. If you happen to be in the area it is a nice place for meal.

As an additional update: recently tried out their catering option — as in — asked them if they could do food (nibbles/​canapés plus a few mains and salads) for an event with about 20 people at it. We ordered from their canapé menu (which is excellent) and picked out a few mains (one vegetarian, one not) and some salads.
They did a cracking job, and the food was excellent. Canapés were a big hit, and as the event «went on» the hot mains were extremely well received. It worked out great value as well per-​head, and the staff at Kennedys were a delight to deal with, helping with menu suggestions as well as with awkward requests (like coeliac friendly canapés).
Well worth considering if you’re thinking of getting someone else to do the food for an event or a party at home.

Kennedy’s is a great café/​restaurant. Really good quality food, whether its dinner, lunch or breakfast and quite reasonable too. Staff are easy on the eye too but a few of them are in their own little world and can be forgetful but sure we can forgive that as its such a good eatery.

Kennedy’s is really a great restaurant in Fairview, I love the fact I don’t have to go into town for a good meal. The daily special with a glass of wine is really good value. My friend reckons they do the best Brunch in Dublin! Staff are very friendly and helpful, food is top quality and they have a really good range.

Used to go here all the time when I lived in the area. Excellent food and great service. It opened about 2 years ago and has gone from strength to strength, expanding and incorporating a bistro into the premises.
During the day a selection for hot meals are available, these vary from day to day however shepard’s pie and lasagna are pretty constant. These meals are severed with delicious bread, cost about 7.50 or 10 with a glass of wine and prove to be reasonable value. Breakfasts, sandwiches, cakes, scones, cookies, teas and coffees are also available and most things can be taken away although cakes need to be pre-​ordered.
Later in the day it becomes a bistro with a very capable and interesting menu. I got the tuna steak last time I was there and it was excellent! Under no circumstances allow yourself to miss desert as the kitchen bakes excellent cakes. The décor is stylish but traditional and could suit any occasion.
In short I think this is what every local coffee shop should be and recommend it to all.

Went back again early Saturday afternoon and had a lovely carrot soup whic was gorgeous and served with beautiful homemade brown bread and a nice knob of real butter.
The staff here are always so friendly so once again Kennedys in Farview gerts a big thumbs up from me.

Great Breakfasts! In fact I’m heading there now…

Kennedy’s is a delicious little food shop/​café which could hold its head up in the D4 postcode. During the day, you can eat in the admittedly tiny café area — although some hardy souls are still braving the elements and eating in the cordoned-​off outside seating area in October. They also do takeaway, which is nice but pricey enough — think a fiver for slice of quiche. The food is lovely and definitely homemade by someone

I like the way that Fairview is becoming a little bit gentrified by its tenants. Coffee shops like Kennedy’s and the Bombay Pantry that opened up past the church, soon the place will be indistinguishable from Rathmines or Dun Laoighaire or one of those places.
Kenndy’s is a nice little spot down on the main road in Fairview, and it’s not been unknown for me to pop in their on the way home from work for a coffee and a read of the paper. I’ve never tried any of the mains but they look very nice, but suffice to say that the coffee is good and the pastries are mainly good (I hate almond-​flavoured things. Not almonds, which I like, but pastries and such with almond fillings. I guess that it’s not Kennedy’s fault that they sell them and it’s just up to me to avoid them).
Nice spot.

I had a scone and a cappuccino here and both were delicious, the staff are excellent too. They sell teas, jams and nuts. They also serve main courses like Shepard’s pie for about 10 euro and judging by the plate that the man next to me got it’s really good. He stuffed himself so quickly. They also do sandwiches and breakfasts. It’s a popular spot with the locals.
