The Insomnia Coffee Company at the train station offers a bright and cheery atmosphere, with friendly and helpful staff on hand to assist customers. Their coffee is of excellent quality and offers a great pick-me-up for commuting travelers. However, the prices at Insomnia Coffee Company are quite high, especially for those on a budget. And for the vegetarian crowd, options are quite limited, with very few choices available. Overall, while the ambiance and staff are excellent, the high prices and lack of vegetarian options may not suit all customers. If you're seeking a warm and friendly spot to grab a coffee, Insomnia Coffee Company could be a good option but be prepared to pay for it.

Insomnia Coffee Company – Heuston Station We had a short break here and each of us ordered our own drinks and snacks. Seating is limited, but we were lucky to find a table. I cleaned the table while the rest placed their orders. Ordering was simple, just tell the staff what you want and pick it up at the counter. My coffee and croissant were tasty.

Nice staff and food, although today when i ordered the staff switched my order to the other customer's food, i purchased a toast and she purchased a falafel. Good thing she checked her order before leave so she was able to give my toast.

Good little place to grab some quick breakfast when you arrive at the train station early. Their croissants were great and they had good coffee. There are only few places open in the morning and this is one of them.

I got the most bussing iced strawberry matcha and I couldn’t stop thinking about it so I had to leave a review. Friendly staff and my order was made within 2 minutes. Very happy customer.

Solid espresso! Friendly staff. This was our first visit to the train station and was not expecting much. The station has a lot of open natural lighting and this coffee shop was much nicer than most train station coffee places. I served up the espresso nice and hot… Their espresso is on the darker side so if you’d like a light roast may not be for you. We prefer dark roast so this was excellent. The coffee shop is mayor steps from the trains so you could definitely grab a coffee and go in just a few minutes.

Stopped off before my 8am train and got breakfast. Ordered a ciabatta and a cappuccino. Both were lovely and they had oat milk and syrups too. Service was great also, for early in the morning the staff had an energetic attitude and were very kind.
