The best restaurants

09/08/2025: Good night in coppers Portlaoise. Late night music and party atmosphere. Worth a go

04/08/2025: Best club in portlaoise.highly recommended.

03/12/2025: The food is good, it is the same than the takeaway but way more expensive. I was expecting an extra price for the location and the comfort to eat at the table, but I think the prices do not match with what is offered. I like the food but I will keep going to the takeaway

28/11/2025: pure class on every visit. super tasty and unique starters and dishes to share from the specials board and some of the finest soba noodles you can find anywhere. highly recommend!!

17/08/2025: Great food. Spotless clean. Great view

07/06/2025: Hemos sido visitantes regulares a la hora del almuerzo de este lugar durante un par de años, pero lamentablemente, la calidad ha estado disminuyendo. Los precios están subiendo, mientras que las porciones se están reduciendo. Nuestro reciente almuerzo del sábado fue un fracaso. El ciabatta BLT era una mitad y estaba increíblemente empapado, desmoronándose y literalmente goteando por todo el plato. Las alitas de pollo con salsa picante eran una broma - sin calor, seco, y parecía microondas. La salsa de queso azul sabía más a mayo con un toque de queso azul. El sándwich de coronación de pollo también estaba apagado, con sabores que no encajaban. Es una lástima, ya que hemos tenido alguno - fuera de percances antes (como encontrar un pelo en nuestra pasta de gambas) , pero esta visita fue la peor. Con suerte, renovarán su menú y servicio.

03/11/2025: Very welcoming and the employees are friendly and looked after me

21/10/2025: I visited here first time on my lunch break I ordered a chicken and cheese toastie on its own and a bottle of Coke Zero for take away got charged 13.50. Crazy prices for average food.

07/06/2025: Never a bad meal from here and portions are a good size .service is always great very friendly.

03/11/2025: Disaster for kids parties. What an awful experience -No party organiser (we had to find our own way to tables and laser tag etc) -No water at the kids table (30€ spent buying bottled water ) -we were handed a jug of water but told no cups available !? - Staff booked in the party at the wrong time. - Laser tag equipment was broken. - Bowling lanes also broken. Nothing to cut the children’s cake!? No staff available to help - the management should be ashamed They don’t do kids parties here - although they advertise it.

02/11/2025: Always love coming to leisuredome I am sure they are sick of seen me and family at this rate. Always kept clean and always have a ball. Thanks 🙏🏻

19/09/2025: The Döner Kebabs are very delicious

18/05/2025: Terrible food wouldn’t go there again

02/08/2025: With a large space, there's a pool table and a TV showing sports. When there's live music, it's very lively and people have fun! Thank you for being part of the Castlebar Summer Fest, it was a pleasure recording with you. kind Regards, Ligia Stephani (Guth Films)

14/08/2025: For a building that has so much history to and known name its a shame that the building isn't cared for. From a bus empty holders for flower boxes, tampons and durex on display instead Plus side food and pints are on par with any pub nearby

16/06/2025: Extremely rude barman. Was told we wouldn't be served because we had kids with us. Barman seemed to be unaware of law allowing kids on premise until 9pm. Very few other customers even in the pub. Avoid!

03/11/2025: just had one of the best smash burgers credit where credits due they are definitely upping their game with the burgers well done

02/11/2025: Every time you walk pass the place it absolutely stinks 😷

21/09/2025: We got the sushi combo Dublin. The quantities are good enough and the presentation is very nice. The fish was fresh, but the rice was not good, which devalued the taste. Staff were super nice. It’s a super location.

19/09/2025: My fav sushi in Dublin! Every time in city center I order some. They are super delish and always send some extra pieces as well which is very kind.

03/11/2025: The garavogue has turned into a dump of a pub with some of the most ignorant bouncers I've ever met. Thankfully I don't go out much but will make sure to not go back there.

22/09/2025: We had an excellent experience on Saturday for my sister in law to be’s hen party. We had a cocktail class, led by the very professional bar manager (I’m so sorry I cannot recall his name), expertly led and very accommodating, my sister is a wheelchair user and he brought the cocktail ingredients to her table and completed the demo - afterwards we went into Maeve’s for a drink where they cleared a table to ensure we all got to sit together at a low table to accommodate the wheelchair. We then went to Waxies for our dinner, we had a two course menu - the food was divine and the staff were absolutely lovely there also.. We returned to Garravogue later on for some dancing, a table was reserved for us alongside some complimentary shots!! Special shout out to Robbie, the head doorman - he was brilliant, nothing was ever an issue, he was so accommodating 😁

17/11/2025: Fast but very unfriendly service particularly from the café manager Emir, who seemed completely disinterested in the job. He was very rude to me in his body language and his tone of voice. The other baristas were extremely friendly but overall, the atmosphere of the place felt tense and claustrophobic. I've been here multiple times in the past but have never had an experience as profound as this. Not worth it coming back here again

31/10/2025: Was unfortunate to encounter a terribly rude member of staff..the toilet requires a code and unfortunately I wasn't given a receipt when I paid so had to ask a staff member and she was just so needlessly hostile towards me..unfortunately this kind of service is becoming so common, not just to this establishment but I'm going to continue to complain about it..everything is getting so wildly expensive and now we have to be snarked at as well by rude staff?

11/10/2025: Decent shop with good halal options in chicken

31/07/2025: Great takeaway. Super food and service! Fast and efficient.

06/12/2025: Great Value food. Chicken burger is the nicest I’ve ever had. Fantastic views all around. Great service and great pint of Guinness!

13/11/2025: Avoid unless you want to be s/assaulted
