::A nice oasis on O’Connell Street (5/5 green stars) I’ve been to a few branches of Esquires, and have visited this branch twice. I like this café – it’s very cozy inside with nice decor, but also has lots of light and an outdoor seating area. I find their espresso drinks (€3.15 for a small latte) to be good and would rate their food as quite good (some room for improvement). Their cookie (€2.75) was fine, their apple turnover (€2.75) was a bit deflated and soft, and their scrambled egg & pretzel was tasty (but portion was a bit small). I’m also giving them 5/5 Green Stars for social and environmental impact, based on these reasons: • All of their coffee is organic and certified Fairtrade. • Ethical Consumer ranks Esquires as the second best coffee chain – just below Soho and well above Starbucks. • It’s worth mentioning that some independent cafés offering direct trade, sustainable coffee may have a better overall impact. So I wouldn’t rate them as the most ethical café but they may be in the top 20%, so that means 5/5. • They tend to do a good job at encouraging ceramic /personal cup use. • Food is also served on ceramic plates with metal utensils. • Their sugar is also Fairtrade certified. • I’ve forgotten to get many details on food, and their website has no information on anything beyond the coffee. • For now I’m giving them the benefit of the doubt on the food but they should provide more info on sourcing. Free range eggs?
