Decaf in Ireland - second try
 

I am posting this again because my first one mysteriously disappeared. Can anyone tell me if we will find brewed decaf coffee in Ireland at breakfast? I realize you can't tell me about all places, but what have others run into? I love coffee with breakfast, but more than one cup of the caff makes me vibrate all day. If it is not available, I may bring some decaf bags or some instant decaf I find drinkable. Thanks for your help. I hope this one doesn't disappear also.

It didn't disappear. Click on your name and all your posts will pop up. You've had six hits on your original post. ((b))

My experience with decaf was translated as Nescafe which is a taste I never got accustomed to. Relax with an herbal tea-bring your own sachet and they will be glad to provide you with hot water. I assume you are talking about bed and breakfast with the included meal and not a stand alone restaurant.

All coffee is very very strong, most restaurants don't serve with meal, they serve after breakfast or after dessert is served at dinner.

Just a follow-up. As expected, there was almost no brewed decaf in Ireland. I brought a small coffee drip that goes over a cup, filters and some ground decaf. Then all I needed was hot water. Easy for me and no problem for them. This meant I could have my many cups of coffee at breakfast and not vibrate all day.

You can find decaf coffee in plenty of places, but in B&Bs it will be mainly instant. I recently had a baby in Ireland, so I know of what I speak. I would always ask for a decaf latte or whatever, and it ws rare that I couldn't get it.

You are correct if you're talking abot coffee places. I was talking about B&b/small hotels in both Ireland and northern Ireland. Even the Radisson in Belfast didn't have brewed decaf ready -they would have needed 20 minutes notice and I forgot to ask them when I sat down. This was an easily solved problem, but only if you come prepared.
