Blackrock Coffee Houses

category dublin | consumer issues | opinion/analysis author Sunday June 05, 2005 17:55author by A. Kaffir - DISGRUNTELED CONNOISSEURS Report this post to the editors

DISGRUNTELED CONNOISSEURS

I'm leaving for Italy.

I can't take anymore of this.

Blackrock is the worst place in the country for good daytime restaurants and coffee shops.

Encore:
“You want it when”?…. “You’ll be lucky to get it at all” from Encore in the Blackrock Shopping Centre.
Service 0 out of 10
Food Inconsistent ranging from 2-8 out of 10.

Zucinni:
Now only serve “large” cappuccino at €2.75.
A customer was heard to say “Shove It”. A coffee connoisseur prefers regular.
2 out of 10.


Roche’s Store:
Excellent Service. Excellent breakfast. Cappuccino is not great and only serve melted cheese lunches.
What if you don’t eat cheese?
Service: 9 out of 10.
Overall; 6 out of 10.


Café Java:
Food below par.
Service Lame
Cappuccino Poor
Service 3 out of 10.
Overall 5 out of 10

Insomnia:

Don’t even try and get a seat. 3 tables, obviously reserved for their 3 regulars!
