Bar Rua in Dublin

The music was peppy and the atmosphere was chill can go hang out with your friends and the staff is really friendly!

I loved the irish cider, omg the best!!

Typical Irish food was very good: beef stew, sausages with gravy, and seafood soup with salmon. Beers were between €7 and €8, a good price for the place. Everything was very pleasant, both the service and the location. However, we were left with a bad taste in our mouths when, despite being warned, they handwritten a 10% surcharge onto the total bill for having more than 6 diners. We didn't like the fact that they added it by hand; if they had added it as an additional element of the ticket, it would have seemed reasonable, reflecting the establishment's internal rules and local culture. Although it wasn't shared, it wasn't shared. But handwritten, it made us feel like they were taking advantage of tourists.

It's not my first time at Rua, I really love to come here. The stuff is so lovely and welcoming! And a big thanks to Nicolas that in a really funny way he has made me my favorite cocktail: Aperol Spritz!

Great Vibes. Nico is a great bartender— very observant and welcoming

Amazing service and fantastic cocktails! A huge shoutout to Nico, who was working behind the bar!! 🫰 He was not only very friendly, but his passion for making cocktails really showed. Every drink he served was a work of art and tasted incredible. Will definitely be back soon!

A stylish bar and restaurant that blends a cozy, modern atmosphere with excellent food and drinks. The ambiance is warm and inviting, making it great for both casual evenings and special occasions. Service is attentive without being overbearing, and the staff is knowledgeable about the menu and wine selection. The food is flavorful, beautifully presented, and pairs well with their creative cocktails. While prices lean toward the higher side, the quality and overall experience make it worthwhile. A strong choice for anyone looking to enjoy a relaxed yet refined night out. While Nicolas is an excellent bartender who really elevates the experience. He’s attentive, welcoming, and has a great ability to read the room — always knowing when to engage and when to give space. His cocktails are consistently well-balanced and beautifully made, showing real skill and creativity behind the bar. On top of that, his friendly personality makes guests feel comfortable and valued. Nicolas delivers both professionalism and warmth, making every visit memorable.

Our Bartender, Nicholas from Chlie war great! Very personable and friendly service. Would definitely come back!

Poor quality food, small portions, same prices but as the all Centrall Dublin. Decent beers, pricies. Service kind of fuzzy, we were kind enough to insist to pay.

¡Enorme saludo a Lauriane por lo que fue una velada maravillosa! Todavía no he visto a un humano trabajar tan duro como esta señora para asegurarse de que todos tengan una gran experiencia. La comida era preciosa y sin duda volveremos, gracias a todos
