Hanging? Here Are Seven Unreal Spots For A Post-Paddy’s Day Brunch

So you’ve woken up a little groggy this morning, ok no – let’s be real here, VERY F*CKING GROGGY, ouch! 

Dry mouth, sore head, sleepy eyes – there’s only one thing for you the day after Paddy’s my friend, and that is a whopper bit of grub. 

Now if you’re feeling on the near-death side of the hangover from hell, we imagine the last thing you want to do is to spend time trawling through the web to find somewhere to eat. Well, don’t you worry – we’ve done the hard work for you.

Now all you need to do is try get yourself out of that bed, we know it might take some time but once you make it to one of these unreal spots you’ll be on a one-way road to recovery. (We promise!)

1. Dillenger’s – Ranelagh 

This is the perfect place to fill up on a hearty brunch dish. 

They have a huge menu that includes a little bit of everything, so even if you’re feeling a little too fragile for their decadent Huevos Rancheros (they are top class), you can have a light bite too. 

When I’m hungover, all I really need is some grub, some OJ and about 400 litres of coffee. The coffee here is what dreams are made of – strong and as black as your memory from last night. 

Comfort food at its finest.

2. The Back Page – Phibsborough 

A deadly pub with an even deadlier brunch menu – say hello to The Back Page.

This edgy sports bar is the perfect place to go to chill after a heavy night on the town. It’s got games, multiple screens and comfy couches for you to sink your limp, hungover-self into. If you’re someone who needs another pint to cure you, sure look the pints here are class.

Their brunch menu however, is legit one of my absolute faves on the Northside. They are masters turning eggs into a fricken deadly, flavoursome dish. 

The Avodaise Eggs is my top pick, gooey, sticky, smokey, spicy – just bloody wonderful tbh. 

3. Sophie’s – Harcourt Street 

This open-plan eatery has one of the best views in the whole of Dublin city. 

They serve all the brunch favourites, their pancakes are proper whopper (especially the orange butter, OMFG).

If you’re like me and you’re a sucker for juice after a night on the town, their carrot, ginger, apple and kale juice is an absolute winner. It is the ideal cure and a deadly energy boost when you’re feeling dodge.

4. Pot Bellied Pig – Rathmines 

There is absolutely no way in hell that I could write a list of Dublin’s best brunch spots and not include this baby-pink, beauuuutifully decorated restaurant, it really is heaven on earth. 

Their brunch menu is my muse and I’m properly addicted. They specialise in the tastiest pork dishes in the big smoke and they serve Cloud Picker Coffee, the perfect pick me up for hungover heads. 

Their chilli bowl is the ultimate comfort soakage.
