The best restaurants

04/01/2026: Got two half dinner came in a bowl. Very small portion. Meat was non existence very disappointed 😞

15/12/2025: We had a wonderful experience hosting our Christmas party here. The atmosphere was welcoming and friendly. The staff were attentive throughout the evening especially Martin and Elaine made sure our whole group felt looked after. We would definitely recommend this place

29/11/2025: One of the best Guinness I've had

28/10/2025: Great pub where to start your evening with a couple of pints

24/05/2026: The restaurant looked very nice, and the service was okay. But the ramen was so watery, had no taste and it was a blend of everything in water with noodles. Other foods like Gyoza and Bento were okay, but the ramen was really dissapointing.

14/05/2026: Very tasty Korean barbecue. Order in moderation because you really get plenty! It's delicious!!

18/09/2025: We found Grapevine after a long walk. The warm colours of the cafe bar were welcoming. Inside, there was a choice of cafe style on the lower for and a stylish upper deck for a full meal experience. The four of us loved it and would go again.

24/08/2025: Great meal and service. Thank you.

13/06/2026: Lovely cafe for a coffee, but it's lacking an Irish touch. The food isn't great. It has so much potential, just lacking in the food. I would also recommend having a small kids' menu as it's very close to two schools.

09/06/2026: was in no.43 on Monday for coffee..excellent server very pleasant and efficient and very welcoming..very relaxing atmosphere...would recommend no.43..

13/06/2026: Sebastian was fantastic! Everything came to the table quickly and was delicious! Also gave us great recommendations for where else to go in town!

13/06/2026: Sebastian was the true star of the day

07/04/2026: Me and my family enjoyed the food. Huge servings and very authentic tastes. Staffs are friendly and very accommodating especially Princely(staff) who assisted us on choosing our food. Will highly recommend this to everyone who loves eating or to try Indian cuisine.

20/03/2026: Very disappointed to write this , but what an appalling service. If I could, I'd give negative rating to this place. I wrote to them particularly while booking that we were two people with and a buggy before making my reservation and they accepted it. On reaching, they had very less accomodations for a buggy and here's the sad part- they did not even try to accommodate us, clearly wanted us to leave because they couldn't fit the buggy. We asked them twice even thrice if they could fit it- but they clearly said , "no, then we are sorry" There were a few Irish people sitting and they were obviously expecting more of them on a Friday evening, looking for more profit, which is clearly understood by this behavior. If they didn't have enough space they should have clearly told me before accepting the reservation or just by call. Even if they genuinely couldn't fit it- at least show that kind of behavior. Customers aren't dumb to not understand your motive. Absolutely pathetic experience and very pathetic on the restaurant's part. We had to leave. I'll never recommend this place to anyone and make sure none of my acquaintances visit here.

19/05/2026: Dan Linehan's bar is the coolest pub in town. Very friendly bartender who helped us tourist with all are questions.

15/05/2026: I can only review the bar and the bartender here – I didn't stay overnight. Bar: Very good, it has the feel of a pub and sports bar, but seems cleaner and fresher than the pubs in the area. (No food – just drinks) Bartender: Confident and friendly (he explained hurling to me). The pint of red ale is good and poured quickly (€6.30). The unique feature is the urinals from the men's restroom! They've creatively repurposed old beer kegs – a great idea!

28/09/2025: Our party of 9 had a table booked for main course only tonight. Service was quick, friendly and efficient. The menu had a great range and everyone found something interesting to order. Upstairs a live jazz band was playing which added to the atmosphere, but didn’t overwhelm the conversation at our table. When the food arrived it got a unanimous thumbs up. Throughout the meal our server Bianca regularly checked up on us to make sure all was well and that the drinks were kept topped up as required. A few of us had desserts or tea/coffee afterwards to round off our meals. I highly recommend this gem of a restaurant which has been a part of Dun Laoghaire for as long as I can remember.

25/09/2025: Delicious food with nice jazz music

16/05/2026: The food is very nice, service amazing and prices very good! Another customer wanted to change their sauce last minute and they did that easily! Very kind staff

17/03/2026: Delicious food, high in cleanliness and prompt service..!!

22/05/2026: Went to the dragon brunch loved the girls they put on a brilliant show and the drinks were amazing! Food was a bit disappointing but still had a great time!

19/05/2026: I like the food there, was super nice, and the staff too, good place for enjoying with friends and family

20/11/2025: Food is very average, and staff is lovely but not well Organised, they are confused with order so a bit dissappointing.

05/11/2025: Fantastic night watching Sarab Palestinian Circus

02/11/2025: Food was pretty decent and a pretty reasonable price. My sandwich only had a single slice of bacon in it but was delicious nonetheless. Newt was over the moon with his beef sandwich and we both enjoyed the pastel de nata, newt was very happy to have a vegan option and I enjoyed my raspberry one. I think my iced chai came from a powder but then I can’t expect a Portuguese cafe to be the experts in chai can I?

31/10/2025: Good not great. I got a chai, the chorizo and cheese sandwich and a chocolate pastel de nata all for €16. Not bad for the price. However the sandwich size was small and could’ve been filled with more chorizo, and the chai was much too milky. The pastel de nata was good! I liked the chocolate touch. The sides were a wee bit burnt, but that’s okay, it was nothing major. Atmosphere was cute and nice for a quick lil solo coffee date, glad I went, but would probably only go back for a pastry

12/09/2025: Lovely food, great service and great value. A quiet night but that didn't bother us. Nice and relaxed 😊

24/08/2025: Always good. Friendly service. Excellent food

06/01/2026: Unfortunately, this restaurant has closed permanently. It will be sadly missed by regular happy customers. See my review below: The best breakfast / lunch restaurant in Monkstown bar none. Everything on the menu is delicious it’s so hard to choose. Super service too! I’m a regular and always will be. Highly recommend an early G&T.

06/12/2025: 3 stars max because the place is cosy and the coffee is good, but I wouldn’t return there for the brunch menu…branch menu is just average and not a good value for money.
