One of Dublin's most famous cafés is celebrating its 87th birthday.

Bewley's on Grafton Street was opened in 1927 and has become a well known landmark.

Over the years, the iconic café became a haunt for some of Ireland's best known literary and artistic figures, including James Joyce, who mentioned it in his book "Dubliners", Patrick Kavanagh, Samuel Beckett and Sean O'Casey.

The birthday is being celebrated with 87 cent cups of tea and coffee throughout today.

Tomorrow is our Grafton St Café's 87th Birthday. All tea and coffee will be only 87cent! Make sure you pop by for some cake if your around!
