Cozy, delicious and in a fun area. Loved the toasties here and absolutely one of the best chai's in Dublin. I enjoyed coming here a few times and can't wait to return.

It's a lovely spot to relax, have a drink and start your day. The lunch scene is wonderful as well so go at any time!

Paul Bupte

We have ordered Meltdown a few times for corporate lunches, and we've always had brilliant feedback from employees...

I would definitely recommend and am always especially happy to see an Irish, female-led company doing so well!

Sophie O'Donoghue

Meltdown is fantastic! They always come through, even with our last-minute requests and picky eaters. The food is delicious, and the Marina is incredibly accommodating and kind.

Highly recommend for anyone needing reliable and top-notch catering!
