The best restaurants

08/09/2026: Excellent bar for music sport and atmosphere

02/09/2026: We had an absolutely great time at Flanagan’s Bar. Our tour group spent the night in Lahinch and hit Flanagan's Bar. The service stood out right away — friendly, quick, and genuinely welcoming in that classic Irish coastal‑town way. The staff made the whole experience feel relaxed and easy. One of the highlights was the pop‑up group of musicians who started playing while we were there. It was a scheduled performance — but the individuals had never played together before. Just a spontaneous session that filled the place with energy. The music, the atmosphere, and the crowd all blended into one of those perfect Irish pub moments you hope to stumble into. Great drinks, great people, and a great vibe. Flanagan’s is exactly the kind of spot that makes Lahinch special.

25/05/2026: Nice coffee served by a friendly guy. I recommend.

13/05/2026: Lovely place. I go there every day. Really nice guy. Recommend it if you want to have a little seat and enjoy hot coffee by the side of river Liffey.

22/09/2026: Alannah is so lovely and chatty and the atmosphere in there is so nice. The coffee is also great!

16/08/2026: Good coffee. The outside seating area is so scruffy. Shame.

18/08/2026: Pleasant Friendly staff Good selection of food

13/08/2026: I had lunch and it was yummy 😋 would highly recommend it

14/09/2026: My first Chinese takeaway in Ireland, absolutely delicious, maybe the best I have ever tasted! I have had two more takeaways since my first review, both equally delicious.

14/09/2026: The chicken balls were really small which I guess was to be expected coming from such a dimunitive bird.

21/06/2026: They have the most inept staff in Dublin and that's saying something. Their iced drinks are tasteless and room temperature. On top of that, I asked the guy behind the counter to wash his hands after changing the garbage before he made my drink and he yelled at me "no!" and got into a verbal altercation about it. Management backed him up. ???

02/06/2026: Perfect for relaxing and enjoying a cup of coffee.

06/09/2026: Dirtiest I've ever come across. Bins overflowing inside..every table is dirty and toilets dirty.. Too busy with orders to clean the place.. Disgrace.. Oh and miles from the motorway . Eat elsewhere.

25/08/2026: Had drive through and lots of parking

08/12/2025: Called in here on Saturday night, nice atmosphere, good crowd but not overcrowded, enjoyed the band and great pints. We'll be back again.

26/07/2025: The Phoenix Park cafe is in a great location. The owners have the luxury of getting a captive audience due to the volume of people visiting the park and the lack of places to eat. I feel that the food has gone downhill. I’ve been consistently disappointed with the last few visits. My last visit was at the end of June. We all ordered lasagne and the food was dry and tasteless. There was a lack of choice of salads on the day that we visited. This restaurant used to be great. It’s a shame.

27/09/2026: Really busy but a great pitstop for hot choc

09/09/2026: I really enjoy Butler’s Chocolate Cafe. I use their app regularly, and every 10th coffee is free, which is a great bonus. My favorite touch is that you get a free chocolate with every coffee. Their mocha is excellent, rich and satisfying. They also offer a nice variety of chocolates for gifting. It’s become one of my go to spots.

29/09/2026: Very friendly staff who take good care of the customers despite the limited space.

23/09/2026: Wonderful experience staff were lovely. food is very tasty

02/08/2026: Meh. Not very flavoursome food but ok. Donburi unagi (eel): Decent teriyaki style sauce on the eel and the fish was nice but overall it was so bland. Small bit of wakame which was tasteless and then cubes of yellow something which was even more tasteless. Rice was also somehow not good. Fast service, haven’t tried the rest but wouldn’t be rushing back at those prices and lack of flavour.

28/06/2026: I visited this restaurant recently and unfortunately my experience was disappointing. The food arrived cold. The duck dish was not good, although the kimchi was acceptable. I also ordered takoyaki, but I was not confident that the octopus was fresh. For drinks, I specifically requested a cold drink with ice because of the hot weather. However, the drink was served warm and only had a small amount of ice. I don't mind paying extra if additional ice costs more, because I wanted a properly cold drink. Oh yeah, i did request additional ice. The service was also not very friendly. I understand the staff may have been tired because I placed my order around 9pm, close to closing time maybe. However, if the restaurant prefers to stop serving customers earlier, it would be better to clearly communicate that rather than making customers feel unwelcome through facial expressions or attitude. Overall, I did not enjoy my experience and would not return based on this visit.

05/09/2026: Visiting from London - lovely Sat AM class with Aoife! Never used the wheel before but seen in Dharma classes in London. Will try a class! Loved the awareness and breath focus from Aoife. Thank you!

20/08/2026: ​Little Bird Yoga Studio is an incredible place—I have honestly never seen a studio so well-equipped. The room itself is gorgeous, with high ceilings and so much space to simply breathe. ​The class with Hannah as an instructor ---->>> priceless. She teaches with such intuition, ease, and just the right amount of gentle challenge. Her deeply meditative, movement-based practice made all the difference—I arrived feeling as heavy as a ton of coal and left feeling light as a feather.

16/05/2026: Amazing food staff very professional

14/04/2026: I've been a loyal customer for years and recently me and my friend keep experiencing stomach issues after the food , no matter the dish we always feel ill for a couple of days which has never happened to us before and it's sad because we love this takeaway and have been loyal for years, it might be the oil, I dont know though, but whatever it is it has to change, ive heard a few people had similar experiences
