"It’s worth making a short Dart journey from Dublin’s city centre to Blackrock to suck in a lungful of sea air, and September should be your end destination after a stroll. The countrified-cool spot—all floral plates, mismatched wooden furniture, and sprigs in dinky vases—is a delightful place to while away a morning while eating some seriously great brunch dishes. The SEC, a hearty sausage and black pudding patty, fried egg, and cheese brioche bun, should be your go-to (just remember to procure extra napkins). A breakfast dessert in the shape of their cinnamon pistachio bun is essential, too. It’s no surprise that this sea-view charmer is a bunfight come the weekend, so visit in the week when it’s still bustling with locals but you’re more likely to snag a seat. Or, you can book in the evening when they serve Italian dishes and natural wines. video credit: Daisy Meager photo credit: Daisy Meager video credit: Daisy Meager Pause Unmute Food Rundown SEC We’d highly suggest that everyone in your group orders this. Firstly because it’s excellent. Secondly, so everyone is in the same messy, conversation-halting boat. Light, fluffy brioche and a tangy, herby hollandaise-adjacent sauce offset the richness of the american cheese, fried egg, and juicy sausage and black pudding patty. photo credit: Daisy Meager" - Daisy Meager
