Dublin Deserves Public Spaces

1 week ago | lovindublin.com | Shamim de Brún |Tiernan Allen |Katy Thornton |Sarah McKenna

8 months ago a thread exploded on R/Dublin entitled “Do you have a “Third Place” in Dublin?”. Redditor “nithuigimaonrud hit the nail on the head with their response, “Dublin doesn’t really have public squares as we usually dedicate any village centres to car parking and put our farmers markets in industrial estates.” Ouch. But accurate. Drury Street wasn’t designed to be a gathering place. It became one out of necessity.
Dublin City Council has won its appeal to go ahead with the Sandymount cycleway.

2 weeks ago | lovindublin.com | Shamim de Brún |Katy Thornton |Sarah McKenna |Tiernan Allen

The cycle path on Strand Road, first proposed in August 2020, is now back on track after the Court of Appeal overturned a previous High Court decision that had blocked it. The court ruled that the High Court was wrong to say the project was temporary or that it needed an environmental impact or appropriate assessment before going ahead. It also disagreed with claims that there were major flaws in how the council handled environmental checks or that planning permission was needed.
There’s a Massive Delivery-Only Food Hub Operating in Glasnevin Right Now

2 weeks ago | lovindublin.com | Shamim de Brún

There’s a strange new building in Glasnevin. You can’t sit down in it. You can’t order a pint. There are no candles, menus, or waiting staff. But from inside, thousands of food orders are being made every day. It’s called Hosted Kitchens. A purpose-built facility filled with delivery-only restaurants like Sprezzatura, Griolladh, Shake Dog, and Yeeros. It’s a “kitchen centre.” And it’s designed for one thing: food delivery at scale.
5 Streets to Hang Out On Now Drury Street Doesn't Want Us

2 weeks ago | lovindublin.com | Shamim de Brún |Sarah McKenna |Tiernan Allen

A survival guide for the tragically trendy now being bullied by signage. So. It’s sunny. You’ve got your tiny sunglasses on, your €17 graphic tee is cropped just enough to show the tattoo you got in a moment of heartbreak, and your Sambas have barely touched grass. You’ve done your civic duty and supported a local wine bar by ordering one (1) glass of pét-nat to split with a friend. Now you’d like to sit outside and romanticise your life. But lo! What’s this?
Fun runs and festivals - here's how you can get free coffee this weekend

2 weeks ago | lovindublin.com | Tiernan Allen |Shamim de Brún |Sarah McKenna

In partnership with AlproIf there’s one glorious way to signal the start of the weekend it’s with your favourite coffee. A velvety oat flat white after a morning run, a catch-up over an almond cappuccino, a ramble with a silky coconut latte in hand – we love coffee in all its forms, and it’s even more loveable when we can get it for nada. This weekend, Alpro are giving us ample opportunities to enjoy our coffees for free as the Dublin Coffee Festival makes a triumphant return to our fair city.
10 Places In Dublin To Go For The Best Sunrise View

2 weeks ago | lovindublin.com | Shamim de Brún |Tiernan Allen |Fiona Frawley

There’s a specific kind of person who voluntarily wakes up at sunrise. They’re either spiritually awakened, deeply anxious, on a wellness bender, or just trying to feel something before the workday starts. And honestly? We respect it. A sunrise is a whole different game from sunset. Sunsets are casual. Full of ‘ah sure will we’ type happenstance. Something you appreciate while holding a pint or pretending to enjoy your walk home. But sunrise? Sunrise requires intent. Alarms. Layers. Logistics.

Soup Deserves More Than Bread

4 weeks ago | lovindublin.com | Shamim de Brún |Tiernan Allen |Fiona Frawley

For too long, we have blindly accepted bread as soup’s default companion. A crusty slice. A buttered roll. A limp triangle of soda bread, begrudgingly offered on the side. The assumption is so baked in (pun intended) that we’ve stopped questioning it. Soup? Must be served with bread. End of. No further thought required. But what if, and I get that this is a hear me out, bread isn’t the best match? What if soup has been settling this entire time? Bread is fine. It’s dependable. It’s… there.
Where to see Sheela-na-Gig in Dublin

1 month ago | lovindublin.com | Tiernan Allen |Fiona Frawley |Shamim de Brún |Sean Crosbie |Seán Crosbie

Sheela-na-Gigs are carvings, mostly stone, mostly medieval, of women displaying their genitals. Part warning, part weapon, part wild feminine energy. We’re talking full squat, vulva wide, ribs showing, boobs drooping, face sometimes skull-like. In a country where women’s bodies were hidden, punished, and moralised for centuries, it’s wild that these figures not only existed but were placed over church doors and castle gates.
