I discovered Beanhive coffee in Dawson Street, Dublin, by randomly scrolling through Instagram, and I knew instantly it was a place I had to check out. What struck my attention from the first moment was the fact that their coffee had art in it! That's right, and I don't mean on the coffee cups, I mean the coffee itself is presented with amazing colorful drawings of all kinds. When checking their menu one will notice that this option is available for certain types of coffees and hot drinks only so make sure to pick one of the selected ones if you'd like to try this feature. Let them know that you'd like to have a drawing in your drink and they might even ask for a thematic preference. Don't worry, this option is free of charge! Want another twist to the story? You can ask for an edible cup to satisfy both your tummy and the environment.
Even though the coffee art was the thing that made me try out this place, I was happy to discover that their food menu was wide and inviting. From traditional Irish breakfast to ciabattas, wraps, and bowls, the options are broad and every dish can be veganized for free. Did I mention that their interior seats are shaped like honeycombs? So cute!
If you are around this area you can also check The Iveagh Gardens, St. Stephen's Green, and Trinity College.
