The Graduate in Dublin

Pros:- Great pub food but the standard evening menu has become a bit limited in recent times which is a pity. It has also increased recently very significantly in price and is not good value and quality has dimished. An example is the cost of fish and chips which is now €22 less five cents for pub grub and "canteen" quality. This is even dearer than the local hotel. They do sometimes have evening specials which the serving staff will advise you about. Carvery meals when available (midday to early afternoon) are really excellent and generous and slightly cheaper during weekdays. Cons:- Avoid always crowded Friday, Saturday evenings and indeed some Sundays (depending on sporting events) when it can become just a drink emporium. There can be unexpected unbelievably noisy customer groups also on other days which makes normal conversation impossible - the management accept this and do not intervene no matter how loud they get. Not a good pub for a quiet drink. Staff seen to have a "push" directive on selling drink, While drinking one pint I was asked six times if I wanted another pint, several times by the same staff member. However a good local hosteler.

Everything went perfectly and it was very nice.

Just simply great food and a good price. The Chicken Caesar salad is a must. A very fulfilling dinner. Thank you.

Excellent food great service and plenty of parking

We visited the pub because it had already received quite good reviews. What can I say? Rightly so. Very nice staff. Attentive and friendly. The food was also very tasty. We were completely satisfied. Thank you very much.

Great spot for some food or a small get together, they have 2 different sized rooms depending on your numbers, big or small

Grand bar. Very nice staff and great Guinness if that is your tipple.

This is a lovely pub for drinks or food. The function rooms are good i have had 2 parties here and the food entertainment and staff have been great.

Friendly staff and really delicious food

Food is really nice and the staff are friendly. However, it could do with a refurbishment and modernisation. The decor is a bit dated, but clean.
