Our story
A little café with a big heart.
Tucked into Hillcrest Shopping Centre in Lucan, Waiting Bar Café was built on one idea — make people feel at home.
Honest food, made fresh.
From a proper Full Irish to brioche French toast piled with strawberries — everything's prepped that morning. Nothing fussy, nothing fancy. Just the kind of plate you'd want on a slow Sunday.
Coffee we're proud of.
Beans we source carefully, dialled in by baristas who care. Whether it's a quick takeaway flat white before work or a slow latte by the window, we want every cup to be the best part of your day.
A cosy welcome.
Our regulars say the staff are "sound and very friendly" — and that's exactly what we're going for. Come in solo with a book, bring the kids, meet a friend. There's a seat with your name on it.
