The best restaurants

12/08/2026: Nice friendly staff, decent coffee and comfortable seating area.

11/06/2026: A lovely place to have something to eat. Food was good, place was clean. Staff were very good.

07/06/2026: Ten euros for a bacon sandwich. Long wait and it was cold.

17/09/2026: Food real fresh. Special burger would highly reccomend. They have meals 2 for €16 on website that you can ask for in store. Very polite staff.

04/09/2026: Love the food that I had. Staff was nice and pleased

07/07/2026: Rooms lovely and Clean but the bed as hard as the rock of Cashel, poor breakie hard eggs , dry scrambled, hollandaise sauce for the avocado toast like a bottle of vinegar, worse Guinness I ever had ...

27/06/2026: Bed sleep ever, beds so comfortable. Breakfast was unreal. Parking was hard as there was an event but all worked out.

12/09/2026: No menus, had to take a photo of the board and read off my phone. 6 euro for a stale sausage roll, 15 euro for a bang average sandwich with very little meat.

05/09/2026: Fantastic Portuguese pastries! Ate too fast to take photos!

10/08/2026: We've been to the second Irish pub and this one didn't disappoint either. What's the same everywhere is that they're pretty full (you wait longer for your food) and there's live music. You order at the bar, which is also a change for us.

10/08/2026: A chicken sandwich arrived after an hour and a half of waiting.

05/08/2026: Ordered cod and chips obviously pre battered and par cooked Terrible batter would not order again

21/06/2026: Been going here years and I've never gotten anything but gorgeous food from it

22/07/2026: Standard Maxol Garage but very welcome when fuel, food and toilets required. We were diverted off the M11 due to roadworks and got good directions from the staff.

15/06/2026: Spent $100 euro in fuel ,wash etc ,went to use vacuum,put $1 euro didn't work ,my wife went into manager , straight away telling her we didn't put money in before even checking , aggressive attitude when he came out telling us we get money back ,we had to put another euro in ,said he would check CCTV,not that hard up for a euro or free vacuum, absolutely terrible customer service made us feel like criminals 😄,use this garage quite a bit ,will never go back !!!

24/08/2026: Great service and amazing food!!! Would recommend!!! Waitress Greta was lovely 😊

03/08/2026: Went for a family dinner, 2 adults, 2 children. Service was brilliant, girls were so attentive & quick to serve. Menu had lots to choose from. There was a €22 steak offer, I got the ribeye & it was fab. Kids menu is under €10 & plenty for them. My OH got large hot wings, they were demolished !

03/09/2026: Cosy sports bar with local following. Unexpected live music venue in the basement.

26/06/2026: The best pub I’ve visited. In 30 years travel around the world. Love the staff. And the customers! I visited from nz and felt welcomed immediately. Truly something special. A true Irish pub. With the warmth and grounded humour that brings. Highly highly recommended 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

12/08/2026: Great for a special lunch or casual meet-up. Food is delicious

07/08/2026: I go here regularly for lunch and I really like the place. The food is always tasty and I find it well priced. They have a separate kids menu which is great. I find it quick to get service and the staff are always very accommodating, especially because we usually have kids with us so they're always asking for more sauce and the like. I especially like their desserts with a wide range of milkshakes and sundaes available, perfect for kids. I always keep returning

06/09/2026: Restaurant was so clean and tidy and food was fresh

05/09/2026: The worst KFC we've ever been to. That's all I can write, otherwise my opinion will be deleted

05/09/2026: Delicious pastry and good coffee. Nice and relaxing place.

24/08/2026: Delicious breakfasts and afternoon snacks. They have vegan and gluten-free options.

27/09/2026: Nice clean restaurant good food but its lacking warmth and cosiness. The seats by the windows are nice but otherwise you feel like youre in a school canteen. The staff aren't amazing. Lacking in smiles and eager to move you on even though the place was as good as empty when we were there. Overall ok but coldness of interiors and staff plus the ludicrous prices make it just above average. Cant see it lasting long in its present guise.

24/08/2026: Always a lovely place for coffee ! Had a beautiful lunch today, service is exceptional, food is beautiful. Staff are so kind and efficient. A great addition to Kinvara !

25/06/2026: I love the sense of feeling the past and history of this hotel and also the fact that it is situated in the heart of the city. If you like traveling on foot, this hotel is for you as everything is just a walk away. The staff were very nice and accommodating, too. I booked this hotel via Expedia because of its location and because of the fact that it was listed as “shuttle to the airport included”. But unfortunately for me, that information was incorrect. Story short, instead of saving on shuttle to airport, €40 more added on top of the hotel stay. But hey, did that dampen the Dublin experience?! Not really. It would’ve been nice if Shane (front desk) offered me a complimentary breakfast as a cherry on top for that hiccup though. It would’ve been nice. (Smiling) Anyways, please be advised that the walls in this older buildings are thin, so if you’re a light sleeper, might want to consider using earplugs and/or a silent love-making. All in all, still a great place to stay if you’re looking for a great location and if they little things don’t really bother you. Thank you staff!

31/03/2026: I booked this place for 2 nights as a last minute change in plans. Check in was easy. Staff were very nice. location is perfect. The bar/restaurant is great. Room was nice cozy and not noisy. Would stay again.
