A small Kinsale café baking everything in-house, every morning — come for the pastries, stay for the porter cake.
Flour & Bean is a two-person kitchen with a coffee machine and a queue we're quietly proud of. We bake everything ourselves before the sun's properly up — sourdough, scones, and the porter cake people drive from Cork for. No shortcuts, no day-old anything. Just a proper local that smells like morning.
The menu shifts with what's fresh — here's what's usually on.
Locally roasted beans, pulled properly — flat whites a speciality.
Croissants, cinnamon buns and scones, baked before we open.
Naturally leavened bread — get there early, it goes.
Toasties, soup and a daily special on fresh bread.
"The porter cake alone is worth the drive from Cork. The coffee's the best in Kinsale, full stop."
"Sourdough sells out by ten for a reason. We're there every Saturday without fail."
"Friendliest spot in town and everything's actually made there. A proper local."
No bookings — just come down. Best before ten if you want the sourdough.
