French Toast is the absolute key to any good brunch menu.
If you're not an eggs and avo person, or you just have more of a sweet tooth when it comes to brunch, then French toast is the perfect dish. Luckily we've collated a range of places in Dublin to get some.
Urban Health
Location: Ranelagh
Some of the best looking French toast I've had the pleasure to set eyes on is from Urban Health, which is truly one of the best brunch spots in Dublin.

Barry and Browne
Location: Carrickmines
Another personal favourite brunch spot that does a delicious take on French toast is Barry and Browne, based at the Carrickmines retail park. Often overlooked as it's beside hugely popular Vanilla Pod (also on this list, also does great French toast), Barry and Browne deserves much more recognition than it gets and is a staple in mine and my friends' brunch routine.

Being a Dundrum local, and having worked there for several years, Douglas & Kaldi reserves a special place in my heart and there's little on the menu that I have not tried. Their take on French toast is absolute perfection and even for those who aren't into sweet brunch, I recommend you trying it.
