Food Game

Always friendly. Always making an effort to give you the best service. Always consistent. Always good to ones with little nippers. Always great coffee.
Always go to Foodgame.

They know their eggs. Had a french omelette with ham and cheese on their own bread. It was amazing and the bread was really tasteful. Water was free and the staff was very friendly. I am coming back for sure to taste some more items from the menu.

Excellent coffee and reasonably priced. Hands down the best omelette I’ve had served. This place has a really nice relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Some excellent tunes usually on the go and a selection of papers to mull over with your meal.

Big fan. Gorgeous breakfast eggs, gluten free bread available. Delicious coffee, handsome waiters. What else could you want.

Pretty good place to stop for breakfast on the way to work. It is hidden down a street, but a lot of locals go here. An as the saying goes: «If the locals come here, you should go too!» or something like that.
The interior is quite nice and you will find a copy of the daily news with your breakfast or coffee. So it is ideal to stop by on your way to work.
The staff is friendly and the prices are reasonable.

Cozy and comfortable, perfect for a quick breakfast or a relaxing brunch with friends. The atmosphere is warm and feels like your moms kitchen.
I ordered the French omelette with ham and cheese and brown bread. Fresh and delicious and filled me up perfectly. Cappuccino was also incredible, service was friendly and laid back.

Decent spot for weekday lunches. A soup and sandwich (or salad) combo sets you back 8.50Euro (8 Euro take out), add another 2Euro and you get a coffee as well. The portions are big, fresh and yum. I usually only manage to eat the soup and half of my sandwich so I take the rest home. I’ve never had their weekend brunch and I’m not that crazy about their coffee but overall a solid option with friendly service and good food.

I walked by here the other day during my lunch break and grabbed sandwich. They have 4 sandwich selections a day (including vegetarian options), 2 salad options, and a soup of the day. Get a combo for 8.50, just a sandwich for 6.50. The ingredients used were great for the chicken chorizo sandwich I ordered — the chicken was perfectly seasoned, the spicy mayo was AMAZING, and the chorizo was lovely. I wished there was a bit of healthy stuff/​leaf in there — perhaps some rocket would have been perfect.
They use wholegrain (?) toast which is good, but really scratches up your mouth as it’s so dry when toasted. I wish there was a fluffier loaf, but at least they slabbed on the spicy mayo to make it moist enough.
I’ll definitely come back to try more of the options, I just haven’t had enough to really know if this place is at ⁴⁄₅ stars!

Great music, cool interior, great coffee and even better healthy breakfasts. Gorgeous omelettes, avocado on toast, granola, everything really!

Hi there I am going to tell you about Food Game. The carrot cake is to die for and so is all the other cakes. The hot chocolate is chocolately and the water is free you just get a glass and poor your self some water. You can also buy food. So it is basically a café/​shop!

Delicious little spot for breakfast to start your day off right. This place clearly has a large throng of loyal followers, they keep loyalty cards behind cashier which I always think is such a nice idea. Another really lovely idea I spotted was «buy your mate a coffee» which is where you buy coffee for your friend and their name goes up on the wall, so they come in and unbeknownst to them their coffee has already been paid for! They also have a cute treasure chest of toys for the little ones, I had to stop myself from going over and checking it out.
All the above makes this place very deserving of my full 5 stars, but added to that is the scrumptiously simple food and delightful décor. We opted for omelette and smoked salmon, both of which were so tasty and the salmon was so fresh. We spotted some Quinoa cakes and gluten free lemon drizzle cake which would go nicely with a coffee, no almond milk (yet, I’m hoping!) but they do have soya. Lunch also looks really appetising with a vegetarian dish of the dish every day!
I’d heard some great things about Food Game, and after having eaten here I can understand what its all about! I’ll be back

Of all lunch spots around my office this has to be my favourite and we often pop in on a friday. The lunch menu is not big, usually they have 3 type of sambo’s, soup, salad and a special. Last friday I went for the spinach/​lentil soup. Amazing! And the fresh bread on the side… even better! They have big comfy tables in the back and there’s a very relaxed vibe. The place itself is kind of tucked away and easy to miss, but if you’re able to find it, you’ll be in for a treat.

I had heard good things about this place, but I never like to let other people’s recommendations sway my own experience of somewhere…
Alas there was no need for my scepticism, the people have spoken and they speak the truth: Foodgame is supremely superb!
The nice, chilled and friendly vibes were the first thing that hit me as I walked in, a very pleasant change from the dog-​eat-​dog queues that squelch out of the neighbouring Juniors.
No, Foodgame is markedly more chilled, with newspapers lying around waiting to be read over a delicious coffee, cake, sambo or soup.
OH THE SOUP.
I was not expecting anything mind-​boggling because I just don’t like carrot soup as a rule but didn’t feel like a sandwich and wanted more than salad, so carrot soup it was!
And wasn’t I the cat who got the crater of cream when I took my first bite. This was a bowl of liquidised vegetables like no other, and so flavoursome! The accompanying brown bread was fresh from the oven –can you really ask for anything better than that?!
At € 4.50 I really was at risk of dying of smugness from my delicious bargain lunch!

Can’t get enough of this friendly and relaxed place. Equally class for the early morning weekday coffee as the weekend recovery food. The sauce on the blt will make you lose your mind. Not really sure why it doesn’t get really busy like the more pretentious places close by but I’m not complaining!

Food game is a great place for Sunday brunch. Small place with a great atmosphere — from the décor, to the music, to the wait staff. All make for a very laid back feel.
I’d recommend the ham and cheese omelette with a side cup of their spicy tomato soup. Make sure you dip each bite of the omelette into the tomato soup. Just do it, trust me.

Went there for breakfast — coffee, scrambled eggs and bread. Must say this place is cool, lovely interior design, easy and cosy!
Great place it have a chilled morning in a personal spot and an extra plus: the breakfast was very good — what I liked most was the bread, tasted home made and if not very good quality!
I like my macchiato — these guys can do one!

This place reminds me of the trendy cafes in and around Bondi in Sydney. When I saw the photos of the beach on the wall, I figured it must be intentional! It works, anyway.
For me, there are some very good and some not great points about this place.
Coffee– Have tried it 3 times and not impressed any time really.
Sandwiches– really delicious, interesting combinations and at 4 euro a pop, excellent value.
Brunch– a bit pricey for what you get. The menu is behind the counter, which you order at and I found it a bit limited. The scrambled eggs and bacon were both very nice, especially the bacon but I really didn’t like the bread. It wasn’t toasted so was quite soggy and it was a bit sweet. It didn’t suit the rest of the food.
The fresh juice was lovely but the glass was tiny. For 2 people we spent € 30 on brunch. If I’m going to spend that amount, I would like table service and a menu handed to me. Basically, if Junior’s was open earlier, I would have gone there.
I will come back here, but probably only to get a take away sandwich.

Despite what the site says, does not open on Sunday at 7:30am, should have known better.
What does one do with a hungry stomach on a sunday morning? STARVE!

I had dinner in Food Game on Friday night. Compliments to the staff for being smiley, attentive and quite efficient when there’s only two of them waiting on roughly 30 people! Maybe one more person would help.
The food was absolutely delicious. My friend and I shared three plates: butterbean hummus, ox cheeks and lamb. The only problem is that the portions are way too small. It came down to two mouthfuls per person and at 10 euros per plate it’s too expensive. For dessert we had the financier and chocolate square which were equally delicious. We chose a bottle of Cotes du Rhone but it was not great and again, at 25 euros the bottle I would have expected something better. I’ll bring my own next time.
So to sum it up:
PROS warm and welcoming place with a great atmosphere, excellent staff, delicious food.
CONS no value for money because everything is way too pricey.

Right around the corner from Juniors (erm. both of them!!) and the chophouse and a couple of other well established eateries is the brand spanking new Foodgame.
I mention the other eateries as Ross — the owner of Foodgame has been quite clever — he has positioned himself as a purveyor of luxery Irish made foods as well as putting together an exceptionally well priced menu. we had 3 coffees, 1 fresh apple juice, 2 saussage baguettes and jam on toast for breakfast, the total –20 Euro. so, quality food at the right price, it fits in perfectly with the surrounding establishments.
The current menu is a little restricted but I am told that within 2 weeks there will be a full brunch menu with a couple of hot meal choices in the evening and a sort of tapas choice for the rest of the day.
Most importantly, they stock Mellas Fudge — the vanilla one that is sooooo good!
I reckon Foodgame is definately worth a shot, I’ll be back… once the bigger brunch menu is in place!
