The best restaurants in Dublin

19/09/2025: Normal coffee. Unfortunately Starbucks made a ceptable to burn coffee so nobody is actually noticing how horrible it is and so everybody is doing the same. Not a good thing.

01/09/2025: Thought it was a bit expensive for what it is, but they’ve got a good menu and it tasted good.

06/03/2026: Absolutely top drawer. I ordered a snack box the other day and a quarter pounder with cheese and bacon today. You can't beat it. 💯 The staff are friendly too.

27/02/2026: Overpriced dirt. Meal deal with a bottle and stinging people with cans the last 2 year ..goodluck

26/12/2025: We arrived at The Port House Cava for our booking at 1pm Christmas Eve. The restaurant was empty except for one table. All the other tables were vacant. The server greeted us and immediately warned us he needed the table back at 3pm. That’s fine. We sat. We waited. The same server was down the back chatting with the kitchen over the pass. We waited a little longer, still no drinks order was coming. I decided to draw some attention to our table by going up to the empty bar. The only occupied table gave me a glance that I read as a comment on the hopeless service as they tried to get the same servers attention. He was still chatting at the pass while the only two tables were both waiting for some attention. Up to the bar he saunters, I ask if we can order some prosecco. We only have Cava he says “they are the same thing”. No there not I reply, but ok let’s have a bottle of cava and if you don’t mind 6 glasses for our table. Back at our table he produces a wine list which would have been handy when we were seated. The cava arrives. It’s barely chilled. I say nothing. Again the same server reminds us that he needs the table back at 3pm. My blood is boiling at this stage as my family as I are made feel like we are an obstruction of sorts. The food arrives and it’s delicious. Well presented. Well cooked and a delight. The first bottle of cava is empty. I’d like to order another but the server is back down at the pass chatting again. To command he attention, again I get up and venture to the bar. Another server has started his shift just before 2pm. He’s more attentive. We order another cava and a bottle of rosé. 2.40pm and the 2nd server starts clearing our table. 2.50pm and they are hovering around our table to let us know it’s almost time to go. The restaurant is still empty except for one other 3top table. The bill arrives and I settle at the bar leaving half the tip I normally would. I ask the server why the hard push on getting the table back while the restaurant is empty. He has no answer. Which points me toward the owner or manager who I know will read this review. So, dear sir or madam, your pockets would be better lined if you spent as much time on encouraging your staff to deliver a good experience rather than a punctual one. You’re employing bus boys, not servers. We’re paying for the experience of which the food is only part. The atmosphere was dead just like the bookings. What’s the different between The Port House Cava and Tapas Del Lola? The staff. The staff. The staff. You’re doing Camden Street no favours with this diabolical customer service. I strongly suggest you consider adding some charm somewhere because you’re just not at the level of some of your good neighbours.

23/12/2025: Amazing place. Prices too high.

27/12/2025: In the Pub on Saturday afternoon the 27th of December and the place was freezing. There was no heating at all. The other customers were also complaining that the pub was too cold. Especially with the flu going around this is disgraceful, not a cosy pub at all. No wonder the place is going down hill

02/11/2025: Amazing pints of Beamish. One of the best

27/02/2025: I got a donut and coffee before a bus tour leaving nearby. I appreciate that the shop is open at 0630 even on a Sunday. The donut was fresh and the coffee was delicious. I went back a couple of times during my week.

05/02/2025: Bonitos dulces en las ventanas, no puedes resistirte a todo. Tantos donuts, que no es fácil elegir, todos son tentadores. Te gustaría volver

05/02/2026: Been here a couple of times after prayer at Dublin Mosque 🤲 and usually grab takeaway — always good. But today we dined in with friends 👯‍♂️🍽️ and it hit different 😋. Tried the nihari, haleem and chicken tikka wrap 🌯🍛 — all super good and honestly took me straight back to a proper desi home 🏡🇵🇰🇮🇳. Finished it off with chai ☕✨ — perfect ending. And when your plate is completely wiped clean… you already know how good it was 😄🍽️🔥

15/12/2025: Fantastic little spot. Very welcoming, food was phenomenal and the service exceptional. What a gem.

17/03/2026: Extremely fast, absolutely delicious. Everything you need for a fantastic evening is right here! I highly recommend it 💯

06/03/2026: Very good like milkshake and fish and chips

18/01/2026: The staffs are using gloves and also using mobile phone during the time of cooking with same gloves that's not a good practice.

22/12/2025: Amazing Kebabs as always, best for many years ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

11/10/2025: Staff are cool, Coffee is good 👍🏼

18/09/2025: ☕ Froth Coffee, Clondalkin Was around Clondalkin today and craving a really good coffee. Searched for speciality coffee and found Froth Coffee and wow, what a find! 💯 Their menu is super cool with all kinds of hot coffees, iced coffees & tasty treats. I went for a latte and honestly enjoyed every sip smooth, rich and perfectly made. 👌 What’s unique is that it’s set up in a container style cafe with a small cosy seating area and a handy takeaway option for both walk-ins and cars. 🚗☕ Definitely a must-visit if you’re anywhere near Clondalkin!

18/08/2025: Great atmosphere yesterday in there for Oasis, real pity about the older gentleman working behind the bar. Ive never seen someone as rude behind a bar, was there all afternoon and watched him have a go at 2 or 3 people for nothing, called one customer a gobshite. I couldnt believe it, he has to own the place for the way he carried on. Crazy, no way an employee would have been let carry on the way he did.

13/08/2025: A great bar. Didn't have the food but it looked lovely. Pub and toilets are spotless. Bar staff attentive and engaging.

16/12/2025: My regular coffee shop…however during a big rush the people at the coffee machine decided to empty the bin … and not wash their hands after and went straight back to the job

29/11/2025: I only buy chocolates and hot chocolate. I'm reviewing them because these products are exceptional.

14/11/2025: Always a good spot and dog friendly

19/10/2025: Nice place. Good songs and a very friendly bartender. Good and large selection of beers. Super nice pub, with good beers and good music. Super friendly bartender.

22/11/2025: Just an update in Nov 25. The food is better than ever. Just had one of the best hot and sour soups, packed with meat and prawns and deliciously spicy. The spice bag had delicious and large chicken pieces with very good chips. Breast of Chicken curry, fried rice and spare ribs all very good. Top class. Very tasty, authentic and consistent Chinese restaurant. Excellent for take away, top marks from me.

09/11/2025: delivery time needs to be set up earlier, we orderd at 4:55 as soon as they open it, all we got was chicken balls chips and 3 in 1 the food didnt arrive until 6:25, when we called at 6:05 the lady said its on the road and wont be long, we then called at 6:18, the lady once again said its on the way, lo and behold it did not arrive until 6:25. Either hire more drivers or open the times earlier

05/01/2026: NOT GOING BACK My local bike shop in Cabinteely was super busy just before Christmas and couldn't fix some broken spokes on my rear wheel until early January so I brought it to The Cycle Hub as I didn't want to be without a bike for two weeks. My bike has a belt drive with an internal gear hub. Spokes were fixed okay but when I cycled away, the drive slipped badly when I went up any hill. Brought it back immediately to the shop and after they had checked the bike, the mechanic - tall guy with a tache - told that there was a problem with the internal gear hub. When I questioned this, I was told that that it was just a coincidence that this problem emerged at the same time as when they were repairing the spokes! It had nothing to do with the repairs they'd just done! He was absolutely insistent that this was coincidental and, and he told me that he could hear a problem in the internal hub. He couldn't give me a price for a necessary repair - he would need to take the hub apart to see the problem - but would give me a discount on the cost! At this point, I had lost faith in what I was being told and decided that any necessary repairs would be entrusted to my local bike shop. I told him that I wasn't leaving the bike with them and they then remounted the wheel. I was resigned to pushing the bike up any hills to get it home. BUT on my way home the second time, there was no slippage of the drive at all! And since then, I've cycled over 150km without any issue. So what's going on? My conclusion is that they just hadn't remounted the wheel properly after repairing the spokes and that was why the belt drive was slipping but that they got it right the second time. If I had taken them at their word, they would have engaged in unnecessary 'repairs' and I expect they would have charged me for that. The kindest explanation of the whole episode is that they don't know what they're doing.

01/08/2025: Great. Got a full service and new tyre in very quick time. Prices in shop for small accessories cheaper than Amazon in my experience.

04/03/2026: They don't use gloves to make your food. Touch everything around them and then touch your food without washing their hands.

02/03/2026: Typical Burger King experience food was ok not great , I would avoid here late on a weekend as it gets packed with drunks, also the toilet was pretty nasty and quite dinghy. Reminds me of a city centre public toilet.
