The Old Mill in Dublin

We arrived at The Old Mill just after 2 pm on a Sunday without a reservation, only to find it was absolutely packed. After a short 15-minute wait on the stairs, we managed to secure a table. The restaurant itself is compact, with tables placed close together, creating a lively atmosphere that felt almost communal. Space is at a premium, so expect to be close to your neighbours – not an issue for us, but something to be aware of if you prefer more privacy. Service was attentive and swift, keeping up well despite the busy crowd. We started with a Guinness and a Rockshore shandy, both served perfectly. The menu offered a wide variety, and we opted for the beef burger with peppercorn sauce and the Cajun chicken burger with garlic sauce, each accompanied by a portion of chips. The beef burger was fresh but slightly overcooked for my taste, resulting in a bit of dryness. However, the peppercorn sauce was a saving grace, adding a rich, flavourful boost that transformed each bite. On the other hand, the Cajun chicken burger was fantastic – full of flavour with a nice kick, while the chicken breast remained moist. The garlic sauce complemented it well without being too strong. The chips were well-seasoned and delicious, rounding off the meal nicely. The total, including two Guinnesses, two Rockshore shandy, both burgers with sauces, and a tip, came to €75 – reasonable for a hearty meal in a busy setting. If you’re in the mood for a lively atmosphere, good service, and satisfying food, The Old Mill is worth a visit – just be prepared for a bit of a wait to get a table!

Nice Irish atmosphere with very tasty food

We simply loved eating at this restaurant. We already came a few years ago and it’s still just as warm. The service with a smile is great and the food is excellent. We will come back again Bravo!

We ate well, without reservations, we walked past and went back. Fast and efficient service. The plates are well served.

Delicious... but more than I could finish!

A great place for those looking for Irish cuisine in Dublin. The only problem is it's a little small, the tables are too close together. It might be good for meeting new people, but it's a little too intimate for those who want to dine alone. The service and staff are great. The food is excellent. There are not many varieties, maybe that's why it's so good. Potatoes are served with the meat dish, I recommend you to buy them as puree. Even that alone can fill you up and it's very delicious. Well, if you don't drink beer with it, you may get stares from those around you, what are you doing in this city... You should definitely make a reservation and come in October. Even on a weekday, you think about this when you see the queue and people waiting outside. If you compare the prices with the quality, it is extremely reasonable. I hope, as someone coming from far away, we will have the opportunity to visit again...

Local located in the temple bar to access the place you have to climb some stairs, it has a good atmosphere and is very cozy, it has the tables very close together but without a problem, it is usually full, the food was very good, the service was fast and good,

Absolutely excellent. Make a reservation ahead of time by emailing them. The cheese and garlic bread was FANTASTIC. The chicken was perfect. The triple flavor ice cream for dessert was just the right amount. As someone who doesn’t really like beer, it was very nice to be able to get a half pint of Guinness here.

Absolutely stunning food. Awesome quality and nice ambiente. Lack of Personal space but its totally fine if you dont intend to sit here for hours then its okay. We had a Salat, Pasta, fish and everything was amazing. Just Check the pictures

Very nice place, with a great price for value. Good food, nice cozy place and great service.
