Coffee Confessions: Eleven coffee spots we dare you to try in KildareAdd us as a preferred source on Google »

So, today is apparently International Coffee Day. So, what else would we be doing except reminiscing on the best coffee spots we have tried.

Hook. It. To. My. Veins. I am caffeine obsessed. And I love making lists. Therefore a caffeinated creation of a coffee list seems like a natural progression for me. Check out these spots I love in Kildare. 1.  Square Coffee One of my friends has said she regularly drives nearly 30 minutes just to get a coffee from Square, thats how good it is. So basically what I'm saying is that you should listen to my mate Lauren and get yourselves to Square - start your day by soaking up the caffeine and arty vibe. https://www.instagram.com/p/B_aYb0fA-Ff/ 2. Bad Habits  Brownies, bougie cups and bad-ass coffee - this spot is nothing but a good habit in my eyes. With snacks like this and this to accompany your cuppa, you'll just keep going back for more. https://www.instagram.com/p/B0b40KloZoe/ 3. VDA Another whopper spot for a caffeinated pick-me-up and possibly (read: definitely) a little snack. This baby is in Naas, and you can stock up on all your bits and bobs for making your own profesh coffee at home. https://www.instagram.com/p/CFteUGing3b/ 4. PS Roasters Not only do these guys make a savage cup of coffee, they also roast their own coffee in Kildare too. Grab a coffee to-go and a bag of beans for your machine at home. PS Roasters also do a handy coffee subscription service for any caffeine geeks out there! https://www.instagram.com/p/CFMz7H0HlSx/ 5. Firecastle Located on Market Square in Kildare town, Firecastle is a perfect spot for a cup of coffee and a bit of people watching. Grab a spot on the picnic benches out the front, get a little something in their deli and relax. From coffee, cakes, cookies and quiche - there's bound to be something for everyone in the family to enjoy. https://www.instagram.com/p/CFC8f4tHz5J/ 6. Willow and Wild A gorgeous spot in Maynooth, Willow and Wild is just stun. If you want to use your own reusable cup, they'll do a contactless coffee for you. Perfect place to bring your mom for a coffee and a pretty cake. https://www.instagram.com/p/CCIfXglHEat/ 7. Creed Coffee Roasters  Based in Celbridge, the guys at Creed roast their own beans - and seriously this is goooood coffee. These guys really know their coffee; trust them, trust us and put this spot on your list for a coffee this weekend. https://www.instagram.com/p/CEv8bzYHrWN/ 9. Mad Hatter Cafe In Castledermot, this little gem is slightly off the beaten track - but I guess, now the secret is out! Grab yourself a coffee and a handmade choc vegan peanut butter cup, or maybe even one of these pretty little lemon meringue tartlets. *heart eyes* https://www.instagram.com/p/CFRryRtl16E/ 10. Sásta By The River This spot is pretty new on the scene, but this spot is an interior decorators heaven. Insta-worthy interiors and food to boot. This one needs to be on your list for brunch with the gals or a coffee at the very least. These guys know the gals - they even do a rose-petal-topped-white-hot-chocolate, like are you well? https://www.instagram.com/p/CFhN7JxHGRj/ 11. Ubh Saving the best for last! It's pretty much impossible to mention Kildare, coffee and snacks without mentioning Ubh. Ubh is the all-rounder - quality coffee, savage food and everything is whole-heartedly Instagrammable. An essential try before you die in my humble opinion. https://www.instagram.com/p/CEj9SJzgqpn/ Do you have a fave spot in Kildare?
