Stillorgan Orchard in Dublin

08/09/2025: I hadn’t been back here for a few years but I need not have worried about the few poor reviews I had seen….it is still a great place. Good service, quiet , cosy and with a cool French soundtrack playing in the background. We had the fish cakes and prawns to start with excellent crispy bread and aioli. For mains we had magret and entrecôte…..both excellent. THE best French fries too. Perfect crème brûlée to finish. The house label merlot was a great accompaniment with a kir royal and port.

31/08/2025: We’d been eager to try this place for a while, and while we both enjoyed our meals overall, we left feeling like something was missing. I ordered the duck, which was delicious, but my partner had the prawns and chips, and we were both a bit disappointed—it felt more like prawn pil pil served with frozen chips on the side. For what we got, it did feel slightly overpriced.
