Gallagher's Boxty House, menu in Dublin

We enjoyed the food, drinks and the picture window that allowed us to watch all the action happening outside Gallaghers. Service was awesome too!

Classic restaurant in the heart of Dublin

We visited Boxty House in late July. Our waiter was David, and he was fantastic. Someone in our party has Celiac, and he was able to make great food and drink recommendations. The food is absolutely fabulous--their fish and chips were absolutely top-notch. Give this place a visit, and you'll be glad you did!

Delicious food and Amazing Service! Went to Boxty last week off of our cruise - Debbie was an exceptional waitress with great service and laughs. Food was delicious (two kinds of fries, lamb stew, beef stew), and the pints were ice cold. We finished with Sticky Toffee pudding, which is a must try! Prices were a little high, but overall and excellent experience!

On my trip to Ireland I had a list of foods I wanted to try including the boxty. What's a better place to try than somewhere that specialises in them. Debbie the server was absolutely lovely and I couldn't have asked for a better server or dining experience

I think this might be a tourist trap. I had this spot bookmarked because it had good reviews and the food looked good, which it was. However, it was kind of pricey for what it was, and it's probably because it's located right in Temple Bar. We stopped by for lunch on a Friday at around 2. Between me and my husband, we ordered 'An Gach Rud', which was a sampler platter, to share, since we wanted to try a little bit of everything. It came with the Gaelic Boxty (medallion of Irish beef), Gallagher's Lamb Stew, Corned Beef Boxty Dumplings, Carrot Puree & Black Pudding Crumb on Boxty Loaf, and Boxty fries. For those of you unfamiliar with boxty, it's a traditional Irish potato pancake made from a mixture of raw, grated potatoes and cooked, mashed potatoes. I read that it's supposed to be crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside. This one was just soft and soggy all over, so I wasn't a huge fan. I actually preferred the lamb stew and the corned beef. The lamb in the stew was very tender, and didn't have any gamey lamb taste. The fries had a nice flavor but it was too oily and over-fried. I would say that we weren't really that full, but we weren't still hungry either. We could have eaten more, or just not ate, if that makes sense. Besides, I don't think either of us wanted any more of any of the dishes since they're pretty heavy. I don't think I would be able to finish any one of these dishes by myself, so if you can, come with a group of people so that you can try a little bit of everything. I'm glad we got to try it but was this sampler platter worth €46? I don't think so...

We had a wonderful time, and a delicious meal at Boxty House! My mom found this place and booked it, she was looking forward to it for months, and it exceeded all our expectations. The atmosphere is great, it’s not a place for a quiet date but that’s part of what makes the place. Cocktails were well balanced and flavorful, and my beer flight was an excellent tasting of local brews. The food was delicious, obviously they have boxty but the creative ways they used it were amazing. Turning it into perfectly crisp fries with a garlic sauce to dip, or boxty dumplings with a sweet chili honey glaze was unexpected and executed beautifully. Everything we had was delicious, the waitstaff were friendly and helpful, the whole experience was perfect! 10/10, 5 stars, zero complaints!

Great food and a fun experience. Make sure you leave teeth marks in the butter or you're doing it wrong!

We just visited Ireland and went to Gallagher‘s for dinner. It was good and Mike our waiter was awesome.!!

Really good food but definitely tourist prices. Michael was fabulous and a minor celeb in our house cos Somebody did indeed feed Phil. If you know you know. We'll definitely revisit for some Boxty.
