We happened upon Cat & Cage as it was located within a minutes walk from our hotel, the Skylon Hotel in the Drumcondra area of Dublin.We were initially drawn in by their name (marketing works on us, lol) and then "sold" with their amazing sounding vegan options. Until researching to write this post, we hadn't realized we were walking back into four centuries of history dating back to 1690, wow, who knew!!
It was dinner on Thursday night and the place was hopping (if the pub were named "The Bunny & the Cage" that would make a funny pun but ahhhh, I digress...).
While everything was excellent, the best item of the evening was the Beer Battered Onion Rings with Chipotle Mayo. For a fried food, these tasted incredibly light and the onions tasted very fresh! The Funghi Pizza offered a hearty and varied mouthfeel with each bite, with lots of flavors and textures between the wild mushroom mix, the spinach, pistachio crumbles, and mozzarella cheese! We both agreed that between the crust and the cheese, the pizza could have benefited from an additional couple of minutes of oven time but that didn't deter from this being an amazing option! The burger was equally satisfying with a generous portion of delicious house cut chips (fries, but I know you know that lol).
We were hungry and really jonesing to try all of the options that we did .. but honestly, either the pizza or burger option would likely be enough for two reasonable .. not so gluttonous people! If you live in Dublin and haven't been or you're visiting, either way .. Cat & Cage needs to be on your short list of places to eat!

really lovely pub, the staff were so friendly and kind. the outdoor chairs get taken in at 10 which is understandable but also not the most ideal situation, but i would still absolutely recommend

Super delicious food, and the prices are significantly cheaper than in the center.
We'll be back!

Gran comida y gran personal. Gracias Aysa por cuidarnos tan bien durante los 30 de mi hija. Los platos son los mejores que hemos tenido que consisten en 3 pizzas grandes y patatas fritas. Bolas de queso y los mejores nachos de la historia. Gracias a todos

Pizza muy agradable aunque un poco ahumado. Gran valor sin embargo por lo que pagué. Espero volver a hacer lo mismo en el futuro si puedo.
