Social Fabric Café

About us

A family-owned café in the old post office on Stoneybatter, Dublin 7.

Where everyone fits in

The idea is in the name: a place where the neighbourhood comes together. Sit down to lunch with friends, read with a latte, or catch up over brunch.

The room was designed to feel open and warm, from the cushions on the benches to the art on the walls. The menu is fresh and healthy without being boring, with plenty of vegetarian and vegan dishes, and the coffee is Cloud Picker.

Kids get babyccinos, dogs get a warm welcome, and on busy days tables may have a time limit, which you’ll be told about before you sit down.

The old post office, now a café

Social Fabric took over Stoneybatter’s old post office and turned it into a bright, easy-going room: cushions on the benches, art on the walls, and the big patchwork that gives the café its spirit.

It’s a small, family-owned café. The chefs cook everything from scratch with Irish milk, butter and vegetables wherever they can, and the coffee is Cloud Picker. Google lists it as women-owned and LGBTQ+ friendly.
