KC Peaches

Everyone raves about this place (and their many others) and I just don’t get it…
This is the second time I have been here and there seems to be a sheer lack of confusion on how we actually order and who’s role it is! Do I sit and they come over? Do I go to the till and order there? Don’t feel like the staff knew either…
So after a bit of time and going back and forth we finally got the coffee and cake. Did not taste as good as it looked. Dry and bland. Should I bother attempting the salads or does this stand as a true representation of all the food…

This was a great find! I’ve been craving a good, fresh salad after eating junk since being in Ireland. This place hit the spot. You have options for hot meals, sandwiches, or salad. I decided to create my own salad and I’m happy I did. It was only 7.50 € and was relatively inexpensive for the large bowl of salad I received. I would definitely recommend this place not only for the food but the ambiance and location are great as well.

Love the concept and the food! Tried the raspberry pistachio tart and it was fantastic! Would love to come back for a meal sometime.

I loved this place. Food is super cheap and staff are super friendly. I had the egg is a cup it came with 3 organic eggs (cooked perfectly) with 2 slices of toast for just € 4!

Hip music, great location, and the club sandwich is fantastic! Staff are very pleasant– attentive and quick to help. I love having a whole-​food & healthy option available that is quick and yummy!
And for those of you with a sweet tooth, they have an in-​house pastry chef that is always concocting something delish :)
So far I’ve had breakfast burrito, ribs, the Hummer (that’s a salad folks) and would eat them all again! I’ll be back soon!

This place is hit & miss. We have been there a number of times for breakfast on Sunday mornings and each and every time confronted with staff that don’t have a clue what they are doing. You are not allowed to sit down until they meet you at the door. They will not meet you at the door unless they are paying attention. They are not paying attention because they are running around clueless, heads bobbing wondering what to do next.
When they do greet you, they point to any table and tell you to go sit.
Then the charade continues… you get ignored until you flail your arms about hoping someone (a waitstaff, not another customer) notices you. When eventually they do notice you, they come rushing over with a huge grin on their face.
And then the farce continues. Almost all the wait staff are non-​English speaking (which is fine) but they can’t understand you until you repeat slowly.
Eh, hello, if you are going to hire staff who have trouble with a language, do not place them «front of house» where they have to interact with customers. Stick them «back of house», kitchen, prep work, cleaning, walking the owners dog… etc. etc…
Given them 4 tries — not going anymore. Plenty of other places to try out

Stopped there today for the first time to have my breakfast. Amazingly nice and smiling staff which is a great start for the day. Had the salmon bagel with cream cheese absolutely delicious and a smoothie. Also bought a warm cinnamon bun. Everything was delicious, they are fast and nice. I highly recommend this place which just puts you in a super mood

Very nice coffee place close to the St. Stephen Green! It doesnt look like but it is bigger on the inside.
Really good place for eating health food. Plenty of organic options, although I found it a little bit expensive. I really took my time to decide what I was going to eat, because everything looked very good.
I ended up going for the granola bar — tasty, totally recommend it — and a small latte. The latte was too bitter to my taste, dont know why. I couldnt drink it up. Service was pretty quick. Next time I will tea.

This place is amazing. I think it sells itself more healthier than other places. Inside has a little EAT look, yet 10 times better.
The food tastes nice, the staff are nice. If you are looking for milk for your coffee or tea, they have mini milk bottles on the table. Very cute:) all the food is made here. They have nice cakes too. I’d give them 10 stars if I could:)

Very nice KC Peaches. Serving up v good coffee in a great location near the Shelbourne Hotel & across the road from an entrance into Stephen’s Green park (which is a lovely place to walk off your food!)
Stopped here for an Americano & a pastry on my way for a meeting. Coffee isn’t brewed too hot and the pain au chocolat was fresh, flaky & chocolatey. What more could you want on a windy Monday morning?!

Decent KC Peaches although I very much prefer the one near the Grand Canal area.
I usually come here for dinner after an evening at Stephen’s Green and the self-​serve/​deli-​style dining works perfectly. They also have some pretty good selection of salads and desserts – for those trying to be healthy or otherwise. If you’re the type to enjoy a good cup of coffee after your meal, they’ve got you covered with that as well.
I’m yet to visit this outlet for breakfast and if I do, I’ll probably edit the review with more details.

This is a nice KC peaches — it’s cozy but you usually can find a seat during weekday evenings to get dinner. There’s loads of salads and hot food choices to choose from as well as an array of sweets.
O love the choices of desserts, but sometimes i feel the cakes/​tarts in the cases aren’t always that fresh.
Lastly, love that they serve matcha latte (green tea latte) — yum!

The variety of food is here is pretty amazing, with the huge self service salad bar, hot food bar, sandwich deli and pastry selection. The salads here are great, and you pay by plate size from S to L. There’s a good variety similar to a lot of the vegetarian restaurants like Cornucopia, such as cous cous, chickpeas, beetroot, kale etc. as well as chicken. The soups are also really good, I had carrot and ginger and it tasted really nice.
The café inside is pretty big with lots of seats, the prices are very reasonable and the quality of food is good. It wasn’t too crowded when I was there since I came at half 2, but it gets packed at lunch time around 1 with long queues.

Great place to go and grab a quick bite. They make a large number of sandwiches that are decent and offer a veggie bar, alongside traditional coffeeshop options. Amenities are great: free (fast) WiFi and outlets under each booth are extremely convenient.

With tasty yet healthy options, I feel like you can never go wrong at KC Peaches. I love this location as it’s a bit more spacious than the Dame Street location, but same delicious selection. You can get anything from a take away coffee and treat or sit in and enjoy a fresh and all-​natural meal. You pay by the weight of your plate so you can put as little or as much as you like. With all of their food being free from preservatives, additives and artificial colouring you feel good eating their food. They have anything from quinoa salad to potato salad and mains like lasagne and quiches. On Saturday and Sunday they serve brunch until 3pm. Now, those are a few great things to feel good about!

This newest and very welcomed addition to the KC Peaches family has the same great food and charm, bur entirely different atmosphere than the the Nassau St shop due to a much different crowd of usuals. There is ample seating, so this is a great venue for meeting friends at lunchtime!

The short of it: Average food at above average prices can never be more than just okay.
The long of it;
I was staying at the Shelbourne Hotel just down the block from KC Peaches. I tried the SPAR next door, and was disappointed. I was looking for better options. I went into KC Peaches in the late morning on a Sunday. Being a tourist, I ordered one full and one half Irish breakfast (about 17 euro). to go. It included ½ cup of coffee. That’s right, it was ½ a cup of coffee for the full breakfast and no coffee for the ½ breakfast. The 2 «boxes» of food were filled. The bread was wrapped separately.
I looked in the bag because of experience with other «fast-​ish» food places not giving me the write order. I noticed that they did not put utensils in the bag. No napkins. No salt or pepper. When I asked the server, she sent me to the counter to get the missing parts. Well I should have looked at the bread because it was unbuttered.
I walked the 100 feet back to the Shelbourne and headed upstairs. A total of 5 minutes had passed. I had sad, soggy unbuttererd bread, cold eggs, pudding and horrid fatty extra-​chewy bacon.
It was barely acceptable. I felt overcharged and underwhelmed. Check out my other reviews for alternatives.

Started a new job and found kc peaches to be my new lunch spot. Have been there a couple of times and each time got a medium size plate. The friendly staff greeted me at the door each time and told me to fill my plate right up… so I did! I selected most of their salads: Cous Cous, broccoli, tomatoes, beet root, chicken, mixed leaves etc. my plate was full to the brim!
My friend chose a plate to fill up with the hot food and he found the chicken pie to be really good.
I really like the buffet set up so you can chose as much or as little of each dish as you want. It also means you have more time to sit and relax on a quick lunch break.
I dropped one star because tables are crammed together and I think the layout could be improved.

I was in brownie heaven, had to eat with a teaspoon so it would last longer!
Normally I’d head to Insomnia for my coffee and cake combo but was immediately persuaded otherwise once I caught a glimpse of those gigantic and amazingly dense and rich looking brownies through the window. I can’t remember the last time I made my mind up so fast!
The combo was 5.50 euro as far as I can recall, which was a little bit more expensive than Insomnia, but the portion size was HUGE and brownie was unforgettable and also the café doesn’t feel so much like a chain which was refreshing.
To add, the staff were very welcoming, friendly and attentive which was lovely :)

Hurray a new KC Peaches and maybe 100 metres closer to my office then Nassau Street. The food is just as delicious and the staff are equally as friendly as the other branches. I am a massive fan of their food.
HOWEVER ! I didn’t think it was possible that any restaurant layout could be worse then KC Peaches on Nassau Street but somehow they have managed it. Total chaos in there today at lunch time with a big line of people trying to pay right in front of the food so you need to squeeze in to the line «oops sorry sorry not skipping the Q just want some broccoli sorry sorry» and then trying to pay is made almost impossible — please just take my money ! I am sure when the place is empty it all looks lovely and makes perfect sense but the lunchtime rush gives me rage ! So people of KC Peaches please fix it I love your food but I have enough stress in my day
