The best restaurants

06/06/2026: The food was so processes. I ordered a turkey and ham dinner. Both meats were so finely sliced that they were more suitable for putting in a sandwich rather than serve up for dinner. The stuffing was shaped like a hockey puck, was odd grey/green colour and had the texture of Playdough. They clearly don't cook all the food on site but buy it in precooked. My partner had a steak which, unfortunately, was extremely tough. The seating was saggy and uncomfortable. I wouldn't eat there again.

03/06/2026: Cobbler's bar is a great place to eat, have a drink and listen to music, including informal bands that come to play during the week.

24/12/2025: Happy Christmas 2 all the staff

16/12/2025: A new find for us. Staff so warm and welcoming and a great pint

02/01/2026: Absolutely terrible experience – avoid. The Mad Egg in Liffey Valley was one of the worst food experiences I’ve ever had. To start with, the place was absolutely freezing. There’s no proper front door, just thin curtains separating the inside from the outside — in this weather that’s completely unacceptable and made the whole place uncomfortable before we even ate. The food itself was a huge concern. It came out far too quickly, to the point where it raised serious red flags. I’ve worked in the food industry for years across bars, hotels, and restaurants, and I have never seen food prepared and served that fast unless it was pre-cooked and reheated. It didn’t feel freshly made at all. Within hours of eating here, both myself and my girlfriend became extremely sick, and we’ve been unwell for the past 24 hours. I have never been this sick from food before. This wasn’t a coincidence — it was very clearly food-related. I’ve eaten Mad Egg a couple of times in different locations around Dublin city centre in the past and never had an issue, but this location has completely put me off the brand. Between the freezing conditions, the questionable food preparation, and getting sick afterwards, we will never eat at Mad Egg again.

31/12/2025: Fab food. Loved it. Will be back again for sure. They even gave us a little sweet treat for International Women's day ❤️

17/05/2026: Needed a little pick me up, so I grabbed their coffee and pastry deal. Delicious pastry and a pretty good flat white. Staff was kind and friendly

10/05/2026: Most enjoyable afternoon great day

23/05/2026: If you are looking for an exceptional dining experience, this is it. We celebrated my birthday here and were completely blown away. The venue itself is stunning—the lighting and decor create an amazing atmosphere that you have to see in person. The food was top-notch, but what truly made the night was the staff, who went above and beyond for us. Thank you, Ananda, for a memorable night!

21/05/2026: Spectacular as always. Devine food, great service and an inviting atmosphere. The Tasting Menu is always worth a look especially if you're feeling adventurous as it changes regularly

05/05/2026: A great place for an afternoon lunch. The carvery is very good – like home-cooked meals. 🫠 Quite busy for a weekday, and on weekends it's like a beehive, but there's always room. There are plenty of tables both inside and outside, plus friendly service both at the bar and in the restaurant. A large parking lot for drivers. For those with a sweet tooth, there are also desserts (THEY LOOK DELICIOUS – BUT they're not like Polish pastries – they don't have that sugary taste :-)), more of a bland, typically Irish flavor (meaning lack of flavor).

02/05/2026: Very good food at a good price. Lots of space inside and out. If you're looking for a spot that isn't too crowded to catch up with friends, you've come to the right place.

30/12/2025: What a wonderful experience. Food was a culinary delight and the service was attentive without being intrusive. Lovely atmosphere and a great view of the sea. Will definitely return and recommend

20/12/2025: The food was nice but nothing particularly special. However the staff were really friendly and the atmosphere was lovely. I had a lovely relaxed brunch with a nice view. I would eat here again.

11/05/2026: Definitely one of the best seaside restaurants I've been to - great outdoor and indoor seating options, wonderful friendly service, great food, and most of all, incredible views of one of Irelands best beaches! - it's advisable to phone ahead and reserve a table - we did, and were given the best seat in the house! we'll definitely be back!

09/05/2026: Cool place right on the water, not alot of parking that we could tell

09/06/2026: Perfect place for food when travelling to or from the Airport. Very accessible woth plenty of parking.. tasty wholesome food with great service.

31/05/2026: From the outside it is a bit dated but that's its charm the food is honest and value for money. Staff are no nonsense efficient but equally nice and friendly. Look its old school not a place for foodies who think they know food but don't. For breakfast I had an omelette with mushrooms tomatoes & onions and as much coffee as I could consume loved it. The omelette was to perfection. Go on give the Donkey Shed a miss for once and stop being pretentious for one day and give the Brock a go it ain't as bad as you may think. My dog Teddy would love it too.

30/05/2026: Excellent lamb chops and pepper sauce

08/03/2026: Invent a Nobel prize for cooking and award it collectively to all to all who dwell behind the kitchen door at Captain House. The things they can do with a rack of lamb are borderline erotic.

07/10/2025: It was a great experience, my kids had a lot of fun and still keep asking to go back there

29/09/2025: My daughter enjoyed her birthday party here recently. What a fantastic experience. The birthday march was so cute! The staff were really helpful and easy going. The kids enjoyed the playing and the yummy Supermacs meal! Highly recommend.

08/06/2026: May 2026. Great, big. The pizza was generously topped. The staff were friendly. We recommend this place.

21/05/2026: Absolutely gorgeous food and very reasonable in price I have been a customer for nearly 2 years I will not use anywhere else

20/05/2026: Great food, excellent drinks. We had the fish and chips and the fish tacos. So fresh and delicious.

18/05/2026: Absolutely lovely! Super chill, fantastic wait staff, and best chips in Galway! Can’t wait to go back!

14/05/2026: Great service and delicious food!

12/05/2026: Absolutely 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I brought my husband here, who is extremely hard to please when it comes to restaurants especially Indian food & I was hoping to finally convince him to become my official Indian food date going forward 😂 Safe to say, this place delivered! The service was excellent from start to finish, the presentation was beautiful, & the food was honestly incredible. Every dish was packed with flavour, perfectly spiced, & the meat was unbelievably soft and tender. You can really tell care goes into every plate. Even my very fussy husband was impressed, which says it all! We’ll definitely be back.Absolutely 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

20/01/2026: Great pub in Miltown Malbay and so glad we came here. Staff are brilliant, particularly Olivia who was so chatty and helpful throughout our visit. Great atmosphere in the evening with the live Irish music and felt at home with the locals who were so welcoming!

02/01/2026: Great spot- lovely pints and super staff!
