About Bell Pesto Café

Bell Pesto Café opened around 2020 on James's Street, in a converted former laundry building. Before Bell Pesto, the people behind it worked together at other Italian restaurants in Dublin, including Steps of Rome and Enoteca Torino in Inchicore.

Bread, pasta and pesto are made in house. Weekday lunch is simple: pasta, paninis and salads. Once a month the menu turns to a different Italian region for a set menu of two or three courses, and vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free diners are catered for throughout. The café is licensed, with a short wine list by the bottle.
