Butler's credo (that 'chocolate could make the world a nicer place') is perhaps not as far-fetched as all that - at least, that tends to be our verdict each time we visit this sweet little branch on Wicklow Street of the city-wide chain. As the name suggests, this isn't simply a place to have coffee in. Alongside its excellent choice of coffee and superior cocoa, there's a luxurious range of handmade chocolates. Sadly, the sparse seating arrangement means Butler's is better suited to a quick pit stop than a long stay - however much you'd like to linger.
