Grafter, the Irish flexible-workspace provider, has unveiled Gather at Grafter, a new cafe space at Smyth House, St Stephen’s Green, in Dublin, which is open to Grafter members and the public.
Smyth House is located at 6-7 St Stephen’s Green, Dublin 2, and offers office accommodation for personal use, customised workspaces for start-ups, and larger floor space for a growing team.
Gather at Grafter is located on the ground floor of Smyth House, with floor-to-ceiling windows looking out towards St Stephen’s Green.
‘Welcoming Space’
“Smyth House is a truly historic building, and we are extremely proud to have been in a position to refurbish it to such [a] high standard and breathe new life into this iconic location,” said Emma Kennedy, CEO of Grafter.
“We are delighted to have created a beautiful, unique and welcoming space for people to meet and relax.”
Little Geno’s
Little Geno’s, a chef-operated sandwich deli, will provide sandwiches and coffee in a communal lounge, enabling Grafter members and passers-by to enjoy the atmosphere.
Inspired by the delis and bodegas that line the streets of New York, Little Geno’s is owned and operated by chef Scott Holder.
‘Bold Flavours’
“Little Geno’s deli will be a one-of-a-kind offering in central Dublin,” said Kennedy.
“Scott is a master when it comes to food creation and bold flavours, and it has been a joy to collaborate with him on this project.”
Los Chicanos Taqueria
Holder has worked in London’s Michelin-starred Arbutus, San Francisco’s Michelin-starred State Bird Provisions, and David Chang’s Momofuku in Sydney.
More recently, Holder created Los Chicanos Taqueria, an authentic Mexican taqueria.
‘Quality Of Ingredients’
“Scott brings a wealth of experience to the cafe and is a welcome addition to the Grafter community,” said Robert Scanlon, head of hospitality at Grafter.
“We really wanted to bring an independent, chef-driven food offering to the space, with quality of ingredients at its core.”
