🫖Introducing our new Iced TEA🫖

If you’re looking for something a bit lighter than coffee, less milky than tea, larger than an espresso, but cooler than macha- the perfect Goldilocks drink for a warm Summers day (when she comes back again) is our new and delicious and slightly nutritious Ice Tea ♥️♥️♥️ Yum Yum

In ALL Myo coffee shops near you*

*we just just have the one on Popes Quay 🤪

We are BACK BABY!

The team in Myo are excited for another round of HAmazing artists to come to our little home by the Lee this June- starting with the well travelled Rúadhán and The Wild Harmonizers at Myo Café.

One evening of music, three amazing artists.

Rúadhán and The Wild Harmonizers is a collection of three beautiful musicians. Individually they each have songs to share and stories to tell. Together they will knock your socks off. On this night you will get not one, not two but three fabulous performances.

So, let’s count ‘em

1. Kimaya

Kimaya is a q***r, Canadian singer/songwriter and audio engineer based in Ireland the last two and a half years. Inspired by folk, funk, trad, and pop, her music tells stories in both ballads and bops.

2. Pablo

Pablo Bernal is a singer/songwriter from Spain, currently based in Cork. His music has sketches of 60s folk and pop and bossa nova. His songs have a storytelling nature that mix a touch of quirkiness and comedy with charming serenity. The stories brought through song are personal and introspective, reflective of the author’s life experiences but easy to empathise with.

Currently recording his first solo album, Pablo is also known for being the lead singer and harmonica player of Pablo´s Honey.

3. Rúadhán and the Wild Harmonizers

Rúadhán is a poet and storyteller from Cork sharing his music and words in English and as Gaeilge. His music is a mixture of Irish folk music that evokes Christy Moore and the Dubliners with a flavour of Bob Dylan and a dash of Van Morrisson. With the additional musical magic of Pablo and Kimaya it’s all elevated to a whole new melodic plane.

We had an unusual request for a “bouquet of sausage rolls” come into us at the end of the week from a man from Carlow who was going home to the Máthair this weekend for Mothers Day.

She absolutely LOVES them and being the good son that he is, he only wanted to give her the BEST and the best are in Myo. 👀

We’re delighted to report that they already reached their destination and Mary is after tucking into the beautiful arrangement we put together. 💐

“Now that’s what you call a sausage roll,” she said

We think that just might be our new tagline!

Happy Mothers Day Mary and to all the mothers here, gone and to come for your labour, your love, and your presence. ❤️❤️

Call into us for a coffee and a dessert (and a sausage roll) for the day that’s in it 🥰
