Whenever Iām in Bray, this is where I head for a meal. The only downside was a specific visit where the staff were surprisingly short with my dad. He took it in stride, joking that it was just part of the local charm, but the locals sitting beside us were quick to tell us that such behavior isn't normal for Ireland. Aside from that one-off encounter, I still highly recommend this spot.
It's exactly what you're looking for: friendly, cost, warm, great food, family and dog friendly and just makes for a perfect meal and place to chill while exploring the city. A must go!
