What ATF Insiders might win in June!

We've got a flurry of new opening experiences to give away this month, delicious home deliveries, and an amazing potential Father's Day prize, with everyone signed up to ATF Insiders automatically going into the draw. You just need to sit back and hope that your inbox is one of the recipients of this month's "you've won!" emails.


As an ad and invite-free website, ATF Insiders is how we operate, ensuring every recommendation is made without bias, and you can trust that reviews are honest and uninfluenced. Everyone who signs up for ATF Insiders by midnight on Wednesday 17th June will be entered into this month's prize draw, and winners will be selected on Thursday 18th June...



1) €100 voucher for Morso with a skip the queue pre-order


The team behind Mani Pizza have turned their attention to sandwiches, specifically Italy's famous schiacciata. Morso opened on Drury Street last Thursday, and is currently the most in demand lunch spot in the city centre, with daily queues and early sell outs. The menu centres around generously filled schiacciate, the Tuscan-born, thin and crispy flatbreads, with options like Chicken Parm and Porchetta with salsa verde, and this month's lucky winner of a €100 voucher will be able to taste their way through the whole menu. The prize also includes a skip-the-line pre order, which is probably as valuable as the voucher itself.



2) Dinner for four at the brand new Bujo in Central Plaza


BuJo's new Central Plaza flagship site is its biggest opening to date, joining existing locations in Sandymount and Terenure. The centrepiece of this one is the Sharing Table overlooking the grill, where diners can settle in for burgers, beers and a bit of theatre as they watch their dinner being cooked in front of them. With chargrilled Irish beef, local craft beers and the most central location imaginable, this is one of the easiest choices you could make for breakfast, lunch or dinner, seven days a week. To celebrate the opening we've got dinner for four to give away with burgers, sides, desserts and two drinks each, for you and three people you really like. Check out the menu here.



3) €150 voucher for Elle's in Kimmage


We're not sure if it was this gorgeous explainer video, these instantly viral cans of overnight oats, or these beyond perfect looking cinnamon rolls, but Elle's in Kimmage (formerly Ian's Kitchen) has exploded since opening a month ago. Owners Ian and Elaine Ussher can barely keep up with demand, working all hours to churn more and more out, but what a nice problem to have. This month we've got a €150 voucher for Elle's so you can go there and try all the food.



4) €100 voucher for Little Canton


The team behind Little Dumpling and China Hunan are busy preparing for this week's opening of their new restaurant, Little Canton, on Stephen Street where Nan Chinese used to be. The Hong Kong-style cha chaan teng serving roast meats, noodle dishes, street snacks, milk tea and egg tarts opens this Tuesday, and we've got a €100 voucher to give away so one of our Insiders can be first in the door to try it all out. Ours is a roast Silverhill duck, and a salted fish aubergine clay pot. Check out the menu here.



5) Dinner for two with wine at Old Town Wine Bar


Old Town Wine Bar in Dublin 8 has built a nice little following thanks to its approachable wine list, relaxed atmosphere and great value sharing plates, all which make an impromptu meal out feel like a very good idea. We've got a three course meal for two to give away this month, along with a bottle of wine chosen by their sommelier to match your selection, which for us would be, tuna tartare, artichokes with orzo, and roasted John Dory. If you've never had the pleasure, the Wednesday night "midweek table" menu is particularly good value. Check out the menus here.



6) €100 voucher for Yibu by Janet


Everyone's favourite dumpling diva, the one and only Janet, has just opened her first stand alone restaurant right beside St Stephen's Green shopping centre. Yibu is open for Asian-style breakfast and lunch seven days a week, and dinner and drinks from Wednesday to Sunday, and the vibe is fun, generous and highly shareable.

We've got a €100 voucher up for grabs this month, which will make a respectable dent in the menu, and make you very popular with whatever lucky friends or family you choose to bring with you. Check out Yibu here.



7) Limited edition Tullamore D.E.W. by O'Neill's jersey, a bottle of whiskey, and a distillery tour


Two Irish icons have come together for one very good prize. This month one of our ATF Insiders is going to win a limited-edition Tullamore D.E.W. x O'Neills jersey, created to celebrate the shared heritage, craftsmanship and community spirit of two loved Irish brands. They're also throwing in a bottle of Tullamore D.E.W. Irish Whiskey and a pair of tickets for their award-winning Distillery Tour in Co. Offaly, where guests will enjoy an Irish coffee on arrival, take part in whiskey tastings, and get a behind-the-scenes look at one of Ireland's most celebrated distilleries. Father's day is this weekend, just sayin'...



8) A six month's supply of Upside Coffee


Upside Coffee turns ten this year, which is a good excuse to celebrate one of Ireland's most influential coffee roasters. What began on a tiny 3kg roaster now supplies cafés across the country, as well as countless home brewers. Upside have given us a whopping six month's worth of coffee to give away to one lucky Insider this month - that's one kilo of coffee delivered to your door every month, and the winner can take their pick from the range. Check them out here.



9) A €150 voucher for Sage Products


If you're not already on the Sage dip train, are you even alive? Created by Cork chef Kevin Aherne, the range has developed a cult following, predominantly thanks to their Buttermilk Ranch, but also Hot Honey Ranch, Blue Cheese Aioli and Peanut & Chilli Rayu to name a few. They're all made with natural ingredients and designed to make everything taste better, and did you know you can order direct as well as finding them in Dunnes, Supervalu and Tesco? We've got a €150 voucher to give away for the Sage online shop, giving the winner free rein to stock up on dips, sauces and condiments, and explore the wider range of Sage ready meals too.



Everyone signed up for ATF Insiders in June (both new and old) will be automatically entered into the prize draw. You don't need to do anything.
