The Old Mill in Dublin

Very nice restaurant. The local cuisine is delicious. Reservations recommended.

To begin with, I recommend making a reservation if you choose this restaurant. We waited 45 minutes for dinner: the restaurant seems to be well-regarded and very popular. It's true that they offer Irish dishes at reasonable prices. To put it simply, you could call it an Irish Bouillon. The dining room is very small and the tables are very close together. The service is (excessively) fast...we were invited to choose our dishes almost as soon as we sat down: the waitress's patience seemed limited; she wanted things to move quickly! The portions are generous and the food is good. It's still a bit of a tourist trap, very touristy, and that somewhat spoils the experience.

A very dedicated and friendly team. The food and drinks were very good. Reservations are recommended for the evening!

They pack'em in here, everybody is close to one another and it's plenty loud. But having said that, if you don't mind the wait, don't mind the crowd & noise, this is very good place to eat, drink and be merry. Take in the history hanging on the walls, try some traditional dishes, the staff is friendly, the kitchen is fast, and the food is very good. I had the coddle and I was pleased, could have been warmer, but the presentation was quite nice, the portion size was good, and the dish was fresh, well prepared, and flavorful.

How lucky we were to get a table! I made a reservation almost a month before our stay, and it was definitely taken care of. It's recommended to book in advance because a reservation at the specified time doesn't guarantee an immediate table. We only waited 20 minutes for the table for six, and don't hesitate to go to the left of the queue to let them know you have a reservation (the manager will come and get you as soon as a table is available). Having a reservation allows you to be served ahead of people waiting without one. Otherwise, the welcome was excellent, the service was responsive, and we all enjoyed our six different courses in this warm Irish atmosphere. Not as noisy as some reviews have mentioned. Thank you, Old Mill!

Amazing full irish breakfast for only $12.00.

Such a small space... if you dont have a reservation might well move on. We had a reservation and still had to wait 30 minutes, with nothing offered but an apology they were so backed up. Food was good, not worth the absolute chaos and wait time. Packed in. Loud. Service was not the staff at all, they are amazing, it was the situation... i was offered a pint during the extended wait. Which was NOT a free pint come to find out. Ah well... just wont be back agin.

Very authentic and cool atmosphere! Loved it. I ordered traditional stew, quite big portions. The most I enjoyed fish and chips.

Kind and attentive service, excellent food. Get the cappuccino. It is simple but very good. And the soda bread. Another simple thing, but truly makes the meal. Cottage pie, Dublin Coddle, Goat Cheese salad and the traditional Irish Stew was all very good.

The Old Mill is a place with a unique atmosphere and an authentic Dublin feel. The food is delicious – generous portions, and traditional dishes are prepared with great care. It's the perfect Dublin destination if you're looking for a soulful place with excellent cuisine in the heart of Temple Bar. The staff is helpful and manages the heavy traffic very efficiently. However, it's worth keeping in mind the technical aspects of the restaurant, especially regarding accessibility: ♿️ Architectural barriers: The restaurant is located in a historic building, which means there are stairs both at the entrance and on the way to the restrooms. Space: The tables are spaced quite tightly together, which creates a cozy atmosphere but significantly limits maneuverability. The restaurant is definitely not accessible to people with mobility impairments. However, if these limitations don't prevent you, a visit to the Old Mill will be a very enjoyable dining experience. 🚾 Bathrooms for men and women are located on the lower floor. There are a total of two bathrooms available. 🚼 No baby changing table. A children's menu is available. 🧾 The menu offers a wide range of lunch options at great prices. 🍲 Tasting menu: A hearty option for two people to order typical Irish dishes for €69.
