Dylan Hotel in Dublin

19/02/2026: Far too noisy especially if you are more than a group of three. Impossible to hear each other.

14/02/2026: We visited Herbstreet on a Saturday, and overall it was a pleasant experience. The food was genuinely good, both brunch dishes we ordered were high quality and well prepared. Prices are a little on the expensive side, but the flavours and presentation do reflect the effort behind each plate. On weekends they only serve brunch, and something that stood out is that there wasn’t a dedicated tea or coffee menu to choose from, which felt a bit limiting. The place itself is lovely. It has a bright, pretty atmosphere, and the view over the canal adds a really nice touch to the experience. Service was friendly and attentive. The only downside is that they gently remind you that the table is limited to an hour and a half. They do it politely, but it does create a bit of pressure if you’re hoping to enjoy a long, relaxed brunch. If you want to linger and chat for a while, this might not be the ideal spot. Overall, a good brunch option with tasty food and great views, just better suited for a shorter visit than a long weekend catch‑up.
