The best restaurants

22/05/2026: I couldn't believe I'd never been in here before. A lovely pub.

17/05/2026: Pleasant place and warm welcome

30/05/2026: Extremely good food and great spot to sit outside in the sun. Top class

08/05/2026: Lovely place. Food was delicious!

05/05/2026: Really affordable takeaways ordering online and yummiiioo, staff were super nice and threw in a drink for us too <3

03/05/2026: Just had a delicious meal from the Weekend Menu. Tasty, yummy and great service. Butterfly prawn...lamb kebab, lamb jogan rosh, prawn curry...peshwari naan...delish. House cocktail martini expresso🍸 complimentary baileys shot. 🙂😋

21/10/2025: A wonderful place to spend the day, an excellent place to have a picnic, enjoy the fresh air

14/10/2025: The wreath making class was super fun.

26/05/2026: Would benefit from a young front of house, friendly, staff member to seat and give menu's and would also benefit from a young floor manager to organise staff and alocate sections as it was visibly unorganised on my last visit which lead to very poor service. Nobody checked tables and had ordered a drink when my main course landed at the table and it ended up coming the same time as the bill did as I watched staff look at the docet and leave it on the counter. Service needs serious attention as it will end up costing customers at the end of the day. Food was fantastic young bartender was brilliant and very friendly and there was one young lady with shorter hair that i thought was brilliant smiled and was attentive also. Otherwise it was pretty bad. Hopefully this review will help management figure it out. Have over 20 years experience in this sector and it was visible to me that there was no management of the floor going on at all which is a pitty, it would be a well run place with someone in the know taking care of the floor.

24/05/2026: Netzes staff really cool pub food was okay

11/06/2026: Love this hotel. Great location very central

09/06/2026: A place with the charm of a classical hotel and a modern style in a rare combination

06/06/2026: Great atmosphere, the outdoor area is very friendly. The musician was fantastic. Around €7 a pint.

03/06/2026: Dominque was an amazing bartender. Really enjoyed talking to her and trying out some amazing drinks! Irish stew was very good and filling. Had some saved even for breakfast the next day. Can’t wait to go back!

11/05/2026: We went here for lunch with a group of friends and I had the chance to try the "Chicken Pie" for the first time 🥧🍗 I have no other comparison but I have to say that the flavor was excellent and the dish was well presented. Affordable prices and a wide selection of beers as always in Ireland 🇮🇪☘️🍺 The guy who served us was kind, answered all our questions and made us feel at ease. The place and the neighborhood are very nice and clean, if you are staying in the Sandymount area and surrounding areas I recommend it, it's right next to the beautiful St. Matthews Church ⛪

10/05/2026: Had such a lovely experience at The Merry Cobbler! After a beautiful walk with our dog, we were so happy to find somewhere genuinely dog friendly and welcoming. The staff couldn’t have been more accommodating, making sure both we and our pup felt comfortable from the moment we arrived. The food was fantastic, the atmosphere was warm and relaxed, and it made the whole outing even more special. It’s rare to find a place that combines great food with such thoughtful hospitality. We’ll definitely be back!

29/12/2025: Worst experience I have ever had in Dublin.

22/12/2025: Most greasy pizza I’ve ever had. I will not be returning

04/06/2026: Amazing good and service. The arancini are to die for, and the seafood is exceptional.

02/06/2026: The food is lovely, but my partner ordered the fish plater for €40. We were not impressed. Usually a plater we share, and it is served on a plater not a plate, which it barely covered as photo shows. Very expensive for what he got. The service was good but the manageress was very pushy.

09/06/2026: Lovely food, service and atmosphere. Very well priced

09/06/2026: Very mixed review. Food was very good. Service was odd 😐 arrived in the door and one of the waiters was clearly very disgruntled. He was slamming plates, swearing, kicking doors. Wasn't exactly rude to customers from what I saw, but did make the experience very uncomfortable. The other staff were very apologetic and polite. We considered leaving but decided to give the benefit of the doubt. And as said food was really good.

19/05/2026: Delicious food, generous portions, friendly service and reasonable prices. What’s not to love

15/05/2026: Bubbly staff and killer coffee. Went here with my girlfriend. She had the Putóg Dubh (black pudding) and I had the avacado toast. Usually when you order something like either of these it comes on a varnished slice of sourdough that you'd need a (never provided) steak knife to cut. At Manna the bread was a lovely middle ground between soft and crispy and if you like a drier black pudding then you'll love it here.

03/06/2026: We were there in 1996 and it was heavenly even back then!!!! Many more visits followed 💖💖💖💖💖

29/05/2026: Absolutely excellent. From the second you walk through the doors, the staff are just exceptional so friendly, kind and extremely helpful. The food is just incredible, every single course was just delicious.

08/06/2026: Brilliant food. Superb service.

31/05/2026: Fantastic place to eat or have a drink in a beautiful location in Barnesmore Gap.. Plenty of parking and seating for food or drinks

07/06/2026: Great helpful staff. Quick service and good pizza!

06/06/2026: Best pizza in Ireland, amazing place. We'll be back for sure
