Urban Brewing

A unique experience in a unique location: Dublin's microbrewery in the vaults of CHQ, where you can taste exclusive beers as fresh as possible, straight from the tank. Beyond the beers brewed on site, there are over 200 beers from around the world, plus ciders, wines, spirits and cocktails — and a range of experimental and collaborative brews.

Seven WondersSeven Wonders
Café, bagels & catering

Seven Wonders

Founded in 2002 by Billy Walsh, Seven Wonders opened in the IFSC in January 2003 with one aim: truly healthy, fresh food, made to order. Bagels, salads, juices, smoothies, wraps and more — and whether you're coeliac, vegan, vegetarian or a big meat eater, there's something for you. Everything is cooked, baked and prepped every single day.

But if you really want to know what makes it tick, it's coffee — an espresso blend constantly tuned for bitter chocolate and nut notes, balancing bitterness, sweetness, acidity and body.

Catering: browse the catering menu, email your order and numbers, and they'll come back with a quote. Free delivery in the IFSC on orders over €50.
