Falafel in Dublin

This is one of my favourite places to go in Dublin and I always recommend it to friends or people visiting. The staff are so cute and they offer you soup for free with your meal!! It’s always good and it has a really special vibe that is hard to fine in temple bar when there’s so many chains around.

Amazing food, owners are so friendly and the atmosphere is so authentic

Falafel is a small, no-frills restaurant located in a very busy part of the city. While it’s not a fancy place, it has a warm, welcoming vibe that makes it a regular hangout spot for me and my friends—whether it’s a weekday or the weekend. We often go there to have some food, enjoy tea or coffee, treat ourselves to a dessert like baklava, and relax with shisha. One of the best things about Falafel is that they stay open until late at night, which is a huge plus if you’re looking for a spot to eat or chill after hours. The menu includes different types of kebab, soups, tea, coffee, and cold drinks—but no alcoholic beverages. They also offer shisha with various flavors, and unlike some places, they don’t limit your time. You’re free to sit, eat, sip your drink, smoke, and chat as long as you like. Sometimes they play Arabic music in the background, which really adds to the atmosphere. I personally think they should keep the music playing more consistently—it sets the mood without being too loud, which is perfect for a place where people want to talk and relax. The staff are always kind and friendly, especially the regular ones we see often. They make the experience even more enjoyable. There are a couple of areas where they could improve: 1. Toilet cleanliness – The restroom isn’t always well-maintained, so regular cleaning would make a big difference. 2. Tea quality – Instead of serving tea bags, I would love to see them offer brewed tea, especially since it’s an Arabic-style restaurant. Brewed tea would elevate the authenticity and overall experience. Overall, Falafel Restaurant is a great late-night spot for casual dining, friendly conversation, and shisha with friends. It’s not about luxury—it’s about comfort, atmosphere, and good company.

Been here 4 times and will definitely come back for more 😋 Absolutely fantastic food ✨

The food was delicious and generous amount. Staff was brilliant ⭐️

Best Falafel and shawarma spot in Dublin by a long shot! The Hijabi girl and owner Dia are always so lovely, we always see them with friendly faces when we come in. The restaurant is generous enough to offer complimentary lentil soup, a rare thing in Irish hospitality these days.

Excellent place, food and service. The hostess is very kind.

Delicious food for a good price and big portions!

A clean and great halal restaurant that offers middle eastern dishes among other things shawarma or falafel. The portions are not small. Good service, cozy ambiance at a good location accessible by foot and near the many prominent landmarks of Dublin.

Leuke inrichting, lekker eten en grappig personeel. Mijn vriendin liep vol overtuiging naar het terras gedeelte i.p.v. de uitgang, dus dat was voor zowel ons als het personeel gieren geblazen. Ook draaide ze goeie hits, echt een aanrader dus! 😎
