O'Briens

O'Briens has been making artisan sandwiches and barista coffee since 1988. O'Briens Irish Sandwich Cafe started in Ireland and now has outlets all over the world, except in the United States. Make sure to try one of their Irish ham sandwiches if you ever find yourself in one.

Let's start with their ham sandwiches made with Irish ham. They have a few, and if you've never tried Irish ham, you should know that the country takes its ham extremely seriously. They're also serious about serving up fresh sandwiches and salads, including some that aren't available in the United States. Herb and garlic mayo, cranberry relish, and Ballymaloe relish (tomatoes, sultanas, and vinegar) are all on the menu.

They'd also be bringing a sandwich version of Irish breakfast with them. A full Irish breakfast is calorie-dense and will leave you hungry for the rest of the day, but O'Briens serves a quick-and-easy version as a toastie with tomato, Ballymaloe relish, sausage, and bacon (which is actually a slice of ham, not American bacon). You can also buy your coffee here, making it a one-stop shop for a light, healthy, and quick lunch.
