O'Briens is better known as a sandwich-café chain than a pure coffee specialist, but it still qualifies for this guide because its official branding emphasizes handcrafted sandwiches and coffee, and central Dublin retail sources confirm barista-style coffee service in the city centre. That makes O'Briens a credible lower-ranked option for people who want a chain café in Dublin centre with coffee plus food, especially in shopping-centre or quick-lunch contexts.

Quick facts
- Best for: Coffee with sandwiches or lunch, Irish chain café convenience
- Known for: Irish café-chain identity, barista-style coffee and food-led casual service
Why it ranks
It ranks lower than coffee-first specialists, but it still merits inclusion because official O'Briens materials foreground coffee and city-centre retail sources confirm an active central Dublin branch serving espresso-style drinks.
