The best restaurants in Dublin

16/02/2026: I've been to this place HUNDREDS of times over the last 10-12 years. The key thing is consistency, ie I know I'll get a decent coffee and breakfast, my 2 main reasons to visit. The breakfast is good but not as varied as it could be; used to love the Big Breakfast and Danish. A McMuffin meal is nearly double what it was 10 years ago. Music is good, I've even looked up a few tracks from Shazam. Superior location, next to all the shopping. I always have a few loyalty vouchers for the 'free' drinks. I like the app which gives occasional useful offers. Overall, my preferred 'local'. (Update) Noticed frequent staff changes; a McDonald's staple but not necessarily a bad thing. The breakfast menu doesn't really change and this is something that DOES need to be worked on. I am a consistent user and collector of their vouchers for the loyalty cards, always have a few available for the 'free' coffees. The app works well with discount offers, but not much in the breakfast area. Bring back that Big Breakfast! Overall still my go to space in this area for a quick bite to eat, relax, check your phone, and check your local shopping. No reason to change.

12/02/2026: I ordered chicken nuggets And cheese burger for take away,when I arrived home , they didn’t put chicken nuggets in the bag. I tried to call the number never answered the call .

07/04/2025: Gran relación calidad-precio y encantador estado de ánimo relajado en el lugar. La única deducción se debió al hecho de que estábamos sentados cerca de la puerta y teníamos una brisa fría cada vez que abría. Debido a la comida fabulosa que era bastante a menudo como costumbre era rápido

25/02/2025: Comida sabrosa y un servicio educado y bueno! Pasamos por un poco de almuerzo y los cuatro disfrutamos! La comida llegó rápido y grandes porciones!

11/03/2026: Nice food, man who works there during lunch time a bit rude. Not very friendly and can be a bit curt.

03/03/2026: This is a great local pub, with good drinks and interesting food. They have recently changed menu and I was very pleased to see the addition of "pasta of the day" alongside a lot of traditional food. So very curious to try their Beer-a-misu The cocktails menu is also very interesting and it's something that we'll happily test soon. Interior wise, while the decor is always nice, it just becomes magical at Christmas.

30/11/2025: Delicious food and very friendly staff. It was very busy, but we didn't have to wait long for our food. Highly recommended.

25/11/2025: One of the leading Coffee houses in the city...if not the leading...excellent coffee and good food

14/03/2025: Good food and good service. Very pleasant.

12/03/2025: El lugar era caótico debido al sistema en vigor. Conseguir comida y luego hacer cola para pagar significaba que la comida estaba fría, especialmente cuando la persona continuaba hasta que tomó siglos tratar de encontrar artículos. La comida tenía potencial para ser bueno, pero el servicio lo decepcionó.

19/03/2026: Had the best night at Vermilion the food was amazing, service brilliant, 2 lovely guys looking after us , the place is spotless, had family with us from Manchester they were very impressed one said it was the best curry he ever dad highly recommended this restaurant 10 out of 10 for everything regards Liz Maher

24/03/2026: Beautiful kebab. The best in Ireland.

29/12/2025: Attended before a concert in the 3 arena the week before Christmas. Took over 15mins to get served as lots of concert goers and christmas partys present. Did manage to get a seat. Nice atmosphere.

12/12/2025: Wonderful staff and location in close proximity to the 3 arena. The staff are very sound and facilities while could be improved are adequate

05/09/2025: Good bar as all the caffè nero but I like other locations more.

07/07/2025: Caffè Nero's website shows they are open to 6pm. On the door, it says they are open till 5.30pm. I am now standing in front of the door at 4.30pm - the door is locked, the lights are off and there is absolutely no sign of life inside. What is the point of misleading customers in this way?

04/07/2025: I was sitting quietly in the corner waiting for my wife to finish shopping. Insomnia coffee worker approached to me and told me that I have to move from this place or she will call security. She said they are opening this area at 12:00 (it was 11:15). Me and her was the only people in this area, and about 30 other empty table spaces. I asked her why is she texas ranger and went away.. Im not going to buy coffee in any insomnia shop in the world

19/06/2025: I've been drinking Insomnia coffee for more than 10 years and never had an issue but last 2 times what I got from this branch was an absolute muck. No coffee taste at all. Just warm milk. I hope they sort it out

08/10/2025: Good place to do homework or only leave pass the time a while , I liked cappuccino no is strong

09/09/2025: Great place with good coffee! Close to the library for those who want to take a break from studying. It was my favorite during my stay in Dublin.
