Clement & Pekoe opened its doors on South William St, Dublin in September 2011. Although established in 2008 as a market stall and wholesale supplier, the vision became real when we finally had a roof (not a tent) over our heads. The idea behind Clement & Pekoe was born from the belief that exceptional tea and coffee can be appreciated together as a specialty in its own right. Simon and myself have combined backgrounds in retail, buying and hospitality. In the beginning, the spare room in our 2 bedroom apartment served as storeroom and weighing station for our teas. I can only imagine what the neighbours thought as our large kilo bag deliveries became more frequent! We ditched the day jobs in 2006 and fully focused our efforts on building the business we had been dreaming of over the years. The core dual products were to be impeccably sourced tea as well as coffee roasted by those whose standards would be as exacting as our own. These fine beverages were to be served up by a staff who share our passion and understand the importance of excellent customer service. In 2011, we opened the standing-room only espresso bar and retail shop ‘Clement & Pekoe’. Since then, we have gone through planning permission and building works, in sections, to open a larger space with seating and an always lively front porch. Our team of highly-knowledgeable (and caffeine-addled) baristas are always happy to answer questions about coffee AND tea or sometimes just spout random opinions on the state of today’s coffee scene. We are proud to be counted among Dublin’s top cafes in the heart of our bustling city. Pop by for a morning fix or an evening wind-down and watch the world go by.
