The best restaurants

07/07/2025: The best uni experience I’ve ever had

02/04/2025: Parking is an absolute joke. People don’t drive to college just to walk or take a bus to campus. They take away 4 parking spaces for EV charging points for lecturers because what average student can afford an EV? When people park in unobstuctive manners they get clamped and on top of that the college involves guards? Are you serious? A joke.

19/07/2025: The bouncer is a very unkind man. He actually ruined my night & I went home early. I have alopecia & I am very self conscious about my hair. Last night was showery & I was wearing an expensive Columbia hat. The bouncer very condescendingly made me take it off. I was working at the races all week & was supposed to meet some of my colleagues for the Latin night in Scruffys. What right does this bully have to tell me if I can wear headwear or not. Honestly how dare him. I might add we were at a stag party here before & the same man refused us entry because the stag was wearing a dress. Some of the group suggested we take legal action for that incident. It’s 2025 lads & ye are in one of the most popular tourist destinations in Ireland sort it out immediately. That man owes me an apology & if he doesn’t change his attitude he should change his job.

20/05/2025: The staff are lovely and the bar central

10/05/2025: Great food at a good price. Not fancy decor but we were there for the food! A good range to choose from and Jimmy and his staff were authentic. Wine prices were reasonable too.

21/04/2025: Nice restaurant. Not many options for vegetarians but lots of options in non veg and it really tastes good..!!

21/10/2024: All good but this place is closed now. Its GOOD FOOD takeaway

11/06/2025: €5.25 for a mocha that is disgusting price to charge, it's a small cup too, you don't deserve money charging that

04/05/2025: I was on the road and looking forward to a nice coffee and possibly a fresh pastry. I decided here would be a good place to stop off without stopping, especially as I had my daughter in the car! The guy was very friendly but I paid over €8 for a tiny, lukewarm coffee and a stale almond croissant. Where is cup size every other coffee place offers their customers as standard? The coffee was almost cold when I reached my destination less than ten minutes later and my daughter and I ended up sharing a scrap of the croissant - I had to throw most of it in the bin. Seriously lads, why are you charging your customers these prices for stale pastries and under-sized coffees? Hoping you’ll start to do right by your customers who take the time to wangle their way in to visit. It’d be nice to get a response to this review but it’s highly unlikely. In that case, I’ll drive on by to the next place next time.

06/08/2024: Had lunch here, toasties, tasted great, served beautifully.

13/07/2024: Their coffees are lovely and the staff are friendly. The food is on the expensive side. I would return for coffees only.

17/05/2025: Lovely menu here always enjoyable, however can’t say the same about the staff. Last three visits they have been strangely rude, so much so that I don’t think I will be returning.

26/04/2025: A nice restaurant, but the staff are very unfriendly… It feels like “eat quickly and leave,” and preferably, don’t let your child make any noise.

01/06/2025: Really tasty Indian food and excellent value delivered while still hot. The Railway Lamb in particular was so tender. Highly recommended. My second time with them. Food arrived in 40 mins on a busy Saturday night which was 10 minutes earlier than expected.

26/05/2025: This was possibly the greatest restaurant I’ve ever been in, no scratch that it was the best. The most delicious sauces you could possibly dream of everything was cooked so incredibly perfectly. It tasted like a bowl of heaven.

02/06/2025: 10/10 freshness with each order, flavour is great and definitely my favourite chipper

01/06/2025: I always stopped in this chipper over the years as it was great. The recent visit was dreadful, the fish was greasy with terrible batter and the chips were half cooked 🤢.

02/07/2025: Honestly this has been the low spot of my vacation. So I guess that says something.. or just how nice everything else is. The food was gross and over spiced.

25/06/2025: Good food friendly service would definitely return

27/07/2025: Place is gone to the dogs lucky not to close down soon

06/03/2025: Great pub good music amazing service the staff are very friendly and welcoming id certainly recommend a visit

26/05/2025: Prices gone up again. Over 5 euro for a medium latte, you just lost a regular customer

17/04/2025: Disappointing Experience at Starbucks Belgard, Tallaght We had a very disappointing experience at this location recently. One of the managers or supervisors — a Romanian woman who seems to be in charge often — was noticeably rude and unprofessional, not only towards us as customers but also in how she interacted with staff. She was openly criticising a new employee in front of everyone while instructing her on how to prepare a hot chocolate. Rather than guiding her calmly, she came across as impatient and condescending, which made for an uncomfortable atmosphere. To make matters worse, when she stepped in to demonstrate, she spilled cream over the cup, made a mess, and still handed the drink to the customer without cleaning it or offering an apology. This level of service is unacceptable, especially from someone in a supervisory role. We understand everyone can have a bad day, but basic customer service and professionalism should always be a standard, particularly in a global brand like Starbucks.

01/07/2025: This pub was made famous on the back of the GAA and they show sky sports news now and won't play GAA quarter finals. Walked straight back out .smell of damp too

24/04/2025: Auld fella smoking the massive bifta was sound

22/07/2025: Had a lovely cappuccino and cajun baguette served by the beautiful and very friendly Anna. Lovely cool decor and nice & relaxed atmosphere. Definetly will be back for more.

08/07/2025: I’ve enjoyed stopping into Mocha Beans, at this location in between classes, after walks, and whenever I need a little coffee boost. This is a great place, and with their location so close to the University, makes it all the better.

21/06/2025: Very disappointed in the burger and only one burger on the menu? cold bun and very basic put together food would make it 10 times nicer at home. notting special, cheap for a reason

17/05/2025: Best burgers I've had in Dublin. I use regularly and never had an issue. Very consistent. Can sometimes take a while to arrive but always worth it.
