The best restaurants

18/08/2025: We had a Delicious dinner with Fabulous service throughout. Jacinta was amazing with particular attention to detail. 4 extra spoons so that our non-dessert eating guest could try all of our puddings when he expressed a joking intention to do this. He thoroughly enjoyed them all too! Especially the bread and butter ice cream. And the classical guitarist John was incredible. Such a talented musician. We’ll look forward to our next evening out there.

04/08/2025: Always wonderful well worth lining up.

10/08/2025: Use to be a great walk but no longer allows dogs Car parking is a nightmare. Spend more time going in circles waiting for cars to leave to get a space

03/08/2025: This is open to the public with no charge. A great place for an afternoon stroll on a hot day with plenty of shade and seating. Dogs are allowed but on a lead. Very nice cafe as well

16/08/2025: Amazing service candice was extremely friendly and welcoming definitely be back

16/08/2025: Great food, great atmosphere! We got a table instantly which was good, and each table has a light that you can flip and it turns on to let waiters know you need them which is so unique! I’ve never seen that before!

11/08/2025: Very good food in a nice atmosphere.

09/08/2025: Great location. They have a small terrace where you can have a nice view directly on the Spire.

05/06/2025: First time to the Dining Room since the restaurant changed hands in recent years. We were on an overnight stay in Castlebar, and having read some great reviews (most notably The Irish Times), I was looking forward to dining there. Not the usual A La Carte menu on offer, and instead there's two set four-course menus to choose from.... we opted for menu offering good selection of fish, poultry and vegetarian dishes. We were warmly greeted by the restaurant manager Shirley and shown to our table. The restaurant was busy for a bank holiday Saturday night and there was a good atmosphere with reasonable sound levels (nothing worse than restaurant full of loud patrons and you can't hear yourself think literally!) Prompt service at the outset - with starters and mains ordered, along with a bottle of the house red (three to choose from). Overall the wine and drinks menu is varied and very reasonably priced. Both of our starters and main courses were - in a word - 'sublime' and we looked forward to tasting their desserts. However, that's where it all turned sour (for want of a better word) because we waited the best part of over 30 minutes to see a dessert menu. It felt like once the dishes for main courses were removed, they forgot we there, as other patrons came and went, and service seemed to be on the ball (many of them appeared to be local diners and were friendly with the manager and staff). When we finally were given a dessert menu, it then took some more time to be served. Overall, I enjoyed my dessert but alas my sister found her dish rather bland and tasteless.....plus it's unacceptable to have to wait nearly 40 mins or more to sample the final course of the evening. Sadly, we didn't think the Dining Room was worthy of a service tip.... nor was our experience worthy of five stars. Not sure if I would go back.

25/05/2025: Great food, great service, lovely atmosphere. The menu maybe limited, but the quality was extraordinary. The staff were not very knowledgeable, but also very helpful and friendly.

22/07/2025: Fantastic deli and premade meals in the fridge, staff are friendly and welcoming, feels like a place you'd hang out in rather than just a shop. Top quality

18/07/2025: Mellon’s sell the most delicious salad bowls. It is really hard to find healthy, great tasting lunch options at a good price but Mellon’s deliver on all fronts. I recommend the Harvest special!

18/07/2025: Nice food and great service at the bar. A good location

10/07/2025: We had a lovely stay. The staff were great! We had dinner down at the bar (it was delicious!! I enjoyed a pub toastie and carrot & coconut soup) we enjoyed having a few drinks at the bar and meeting Alan. Alan was enjoyable to chat with. We really enjoyed our stay. Only recommendation would be fans available for warmer days. We are so use to air conditioning here in Florida…. A room without air conditioning is dreadful. Lucky for us Ireland evening weather is cooler…. So it wasn’t so bad at night but you guys have much longer summer evenings than we do here in Florida this time of year.

14/05/2025: Hidden gem in Westport. Highly recommended. Nice place for coffee and cake. Bread is unique. Class place

03/05/2025: Amazing cinnamon rolls! Bread looked great too but didn't try it this time.

16/08/2025: Great place, very good burger. Very calm staff.

16/08/2025: Very nice, cozy atmosphere, and the staff were very helpful and attentive. Unfortunately, the risotto, which had been recommended, was no longer on the menu.

20/07/2025: Great family run pub, great food cracking atmosphere would highly recommend

13/07/2025: Athagarvan Inn is always a 10. The Guinness has to be some of the best in Kildare. Staff are truly very caring and know everyone local.

13/08/2025: I was pleasantly surprised to find a pure vegetarian restaurant in Dublin. Seeing it instantly made me happy, and my visit turned out to be even more delightful. The management greeted me warmly with a genuine smile, and the hospitality was exceptional. The food was absolutely amazing, and the overall experience was wonderful. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great vegetarian food in Dublin.

11/08/2025: I have to say I change my 5 star for 3 star at the moment as it’s not same like was before. Firstly food is not great anymore, it’s way too spicy every time I am there. You cannot feel anymore taste of food. As well is very boring,no more cabbage/cauliflower. Just chickpeas, potatoes and tofu. Same and over spicy . Besides that the service is not great too. No one is smile anymore. When they put food on the plate it’s very lazy way, kind of like they don’t care . I missed my old tasty , good flavour-Govinda

30/07/2025: Food was delicious and the staff were excellent.

29/07/2025: Aydan was so polite and helpful made the experience a pleasure, look forward to seeing her again

30/07/2025: I was pleasantly surprised to find authentic Thai food in Dublin. I ordered pork knuckle rice, pad Thai with pork, panang curry with rice, and iced Thai milk tea. Everything was delicious. The portions were generous, the prices were reasonable, the shop was clean, and the owners were very friendly. I highly recommend this place to my friends (cash only).

23/07/2025: One of the most authentic Thai restaurants where I have ever been. Great taste and fair price. 100% recommendation
