The Coffee Shop

Open 365 days, this service provides nutritional, good-quality, affordable meals for people experiencing homelessness in a safe and warm environment.

The Coffee Shop was the first Focus Ireland service opened by our Founder and President, Sister Stan, in 1986. Originally called Focus Point, the service was created for women who needed shelter and support services.

The building is a unique facility comprising of two services, a subsidised, hot-meal service and an Advice and Information Service.

We take great care in designing our menus to make sure healthy, balanced, and nutritious meals are provided for our customers. Operating 365 days a year, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner, this service ensures people affected by homelessness who don’t have access to hot meals, can be catered for in a safe, secure and welcoming environment.
