One of the country's most famous cafés has re-opened its doors.

Bewley's Grafton Street is welcoming back customers after a multi-million euro refurbishment.

Management say elements of the original café have been restored - such as the Harry Clarke windows, open fireplaces and the Egyptian-modified facades.

The building has also been opened up to allow more natural light, along with new deign elements like limestone and marble.

Customers can also enjoy their coffee at a new Bar Italiano in the front café.

The re-opening is happening in two sections: November 2017 and March 2018.

The first phase, opening today, sees the ground floor and mezzanine open to the public.

Next year will see the remainder of the building of the building re-opened - which will be able to accommodate up to 500 customers.

Paddy Campbell of Bewley's said: "It's a dream come true that Bewley's Grafton Street is open again and that it's finally achieved that beauty that we've always aspired to.

"And at a functional level, customers will experience a place that has been designed so that we can deliver great service and the best coffees and teas in town".

This was the first refurbishment of the building since 2005.
