Butler & Barry in Bray

Everything was excellent, staff were so helpful and polite, couldn't have asked for more

The location is truly stunning — you can see Bray Sea right through the window while dining, which makes for a beautiful setting. Unfortunately, the experience didn’t match the views. When we arrived (after driving 45 minutes and with a reservation), we were only told once seated that due to an electricity issue the menu was reduced to just three items. It would have been appreciated to receive a call beforehand, as this would have influenced our decision to come. The food itself was good, though quite standard and similar to what you’d find in many pubs. Service, however, left a lot to be desired: we had to ask twice for plates despite saying we’d be sharing, and when we requested tap water, the server mentioned all the jugs were being washed. Only after I suggested water could be served in glasses did it arrive. Simple things like dressings, ketchup, or basic table setup weren’t provided unless requested. Overall, while the setting is exceptional, the service and communication fell short. Sadly, I wouldn’t recommend it based on this experience

Went to Butler & Barry yesterday. Food was lovely, our waitress Kasia was lovely and very efficient. Got served in no time. View was fantastic. Thank you for a lively time.

Food was fantastic And stuff really friendly and easy to deal with ( Kasia top)

Thoroughly enjoyed the meal at Butler and Barry, Kasia is an excellent hostess, she went out of her way to give us a table by the window. Loved the view. High quality food. Would love to come again . Thank you

Modern and welcoming restaurant with a magnificent sea view. The food is good, the service is fast and the staff is very friendly.

Slow service, which seemed to be due to a mixup of our order, but once the food arrived, it was meh. The chicken on the burger was quite small. The triple cooked chips were hit and miss, some really hard and some perfect. The buffalo wings were nice, but again, hit and miss with some overcooked and dry.

Great spot for a summer pint by the seafront!

Beautiful location right on sea front, menu has such a selection so it was hard to choose! Service was prompt and food was beautifully presented and absolutely gorgeous! Waiting staff were fantastic, going above and beyond to deliver fantastic customer service, making everyone feel more than welcome! My now most favourite restaurant that I cannot wait to return! We have visited this area so much over the years and have eaten in so many hotels and restaurants but without doubt this is the best!

Popped in for a last minute meal with no reservation. Sebastian greeted us explained there would be a few minute wait while they got a table ready and then gave us a table by the window.. food prompt and delicious and the staff were friendly and professional, special thanks to Kashia. From our experience we will definitely be back,
