Kittyhawks in Dublin

Ordered the seafood chowder which came with homemade Guiness brown bread. The chowder was okay but very watery & lacking in seafood. The bread was quite nice but a little stale & tasted like it was sitting out all day. Ordered another serving for takeaway… although it was the same price, the portion was significantly smaller… however, this one didn’t taste watery & was thick & creamy how chowder should be & had much larger prawns & chunks of fish. Very strange indeed! My boyfriend got the double cheese & bacon burger which he enjoyed. The onion ring garnish was very tasty & the chips were okay. The staff became a lot less attentive when they realised we weren’t drinking which was a little odd. They let us help ourself from a big box of Halloween sweets as we were paying which was very nice of them.

Ambiance is lovely but the food wasn’t great. Had prawn and mussel linguine and it was basically pasta with a bunch of cream, some shrimp and 5 mussels, I had to add a load of salt and pepper just to make it palatable. My partner had the cheeseburger which was decent, however, the accompanying chips were very meh. I guess there isn’t much choice around so they don’t have to try that hard.
