Darkey Kelly's in Dublin

I don't often enjoy tripadvisor recommendations but Darkey Kelly's does not disappoint. Lively but not too loud, exceptional service, delicious food. Best fish and chips I have had since on our travels this trip. It was packed and it was a Monday night so I can't imagine it on a weekend. We arrived at about 7 pm and had to wait about 20 mins for a table. Just long enough to get a drink in. Oh, I almost forgot, it has the best Guinness outside of the Guinness factory. No joke. I enjoyed a lovely gin and tonic. My husband enjoyed the bangers and mash. Large portion size, awesome mashed potatoes and lovely dark gravy. One thing, there were a lot of Americans there and many returned their meals of Irish stew only half eaten. We enjoyed it, however it is very savoury and might not meet the palate of American tastes. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone.

Great pub with live music but also with excellent food !!!

Very nice Irish Stew and the Guiness tastes godlike

Really like this place! The traditional Irish music live performances are incredible, in an authentic and friendly atmosphere.

One of the best pubs in all of Dublin. The live music and food are well worth it! The wings and stew can't be missed!!

Really nice place with great live Music. The waiters were lovely even when it got busy.

Big portions of delicious food while listening to traditional Irish music played live. Cozy atmosphere with people dancing, singing and clapping. Probably the best place we’ve been to while in Dublin, highly recommended!!

Best fish and chips we’ve ever had! The fish was delicious!!

Hemos comido hoy, día 30 de diciembre, y nos ha encantado. El local tiene mucho encanto y ambiente. Suena música irlandesa todo el rato y por las tardes tienen música en directo (iremos sin falta). Todo lo que hemos probado estaba muy rico: beef con puré de patatas, fish&chips y las salchichas con patatas para las niñas. Las cervezas que tomamos, marca Brewery, son de ellos. El personal es muy amable y Daniel, un chico mexicano, nos atendió de maravilla. Volveremos seguro!

Ce pub typique communique avec l'hôtel Harding voisin et ceci constitue une certaine facilité pour ceux qui y logent. Pub classique autour d'un bar sympa avec une clientèle d'habitués qui assurent ainsi l'ambiance agrémentée chaque soir par un groupe musical. Pas besoin d'aller beaucoup plus loin pour ressentir l'âme des Dublinois. Nous y avons passé de bons moments même s'il n'est pas le seul du quartier.
