The best restaurants in Dublin

19/10/2025: The bar is an extension of the famous Temple Bar, with an incredible variety of local whiskeys where you can try their signature spirits (I recommend the 12-year-old). They also make the typical Irish coffee. If you're also interested in cigars or pipe tobacco, they have a wide selection. A tip: Entering through here, you can enter Temple Bar from the back, as they're connected and it's easier to get in than through the main door.

28/09/2025: Not a massive fan of whiskey but the service here was great. The bartender gave me great suggestions on what to try!

02/10/2025: Absolutely amazing...Real food cooked from the scratch...Will be back for sure 🥰🥰🥰

29/05/2025: Amazing from start to finish. We went for my daughters Confirmation and they made it so special for her with their personal touch and delicious food. Thank you so much.

08/07/2025: Spice bag tray was very good! Not the stringy chicken. Fresh chips and the spicy chicken burger was very good, I think they put pepperoni in it also which was nice. Everything was cooked fresh to order, better chipper than those here in swords

02/04/2025: Probably the worst pizza I’ve ever had, don’t bother your hole going here, absolute disaster. 🤢🤮

21/11/2025: Prices here are super inflated for what you get. Love the gravy but not worth paying ridiculous prices

14/09/2025: Simply the best breakfast in Ireland

10/08/2025: Chicken was pink inside and cold girl working in place was nearly sitting on my shoulder when I asked to see the menu again an kept asking why the child not eating the chicken absolute muck never again

27/11/2025: Kennedy's is a hugely popular cafe and kiosk on our TU Dublin Grangegorman campus. The coffee is great, the sandwiches, scones, sausage rolls, cookies and muffins are absolutely delicious. The kiosk offers fries with toppings a good price which is so important for our students with cost of living off the scale. Kennedy's support student events and offer support for important campaigns too and staff always friendly and helpful. So glad they are on our campus!!

08/11/2025: Sorry to leave a bad review as usually the food is nice and fresh. We order today when the restaurant opened and got hard chips , stale batter sausages , chicken wrap with dried out goujans. I was so disapointed as the food is usually fresh but my order was definitely reheated food from day before . Very disapointed with the quality of food as it is usually fresh but not today.

25/10/2025: Portion sizes are great, delivery is fast enough but at times has been abit on the colder side, but the major fail and it seems its not limited to Giulio's is the fact the staff in chippers these days seem to have lost the ability to put salt and vinegar on the chips unless your standing in front of them reminding them salt and vinegar please. Even stating in the comments when ordering online extra salt and vinegar results in you guessed it..no salt and vinegar.

02/10/2025: Food is OK definitely filling and the burritos where full but quite expensive in comparison to competitors. The man serving is very grumpy and rude his customer service certainly needs work, a smile or a thank you wouldn't hurt.

29/09/2025: Friendly staff, fast service, excellent burritos!

20/09/2025: Best spicebag in the area , good portion, full of flavour, fried noodles always great aswell, quick delivery and drivers and other staff lovely

06/09/2025: Recently moved to the area and have had some nice food from here, their special spice bag is a mountain of food with crispy chicken, beef and prawns , may end up being a regular now

02/12/2025: Great Beer garden, lovely Bar, excellent food, friendly staff will be back

01/12/2025: 7.30 for the scutteriest pint going

08/06/2025: Decent fish and chips that suffer slightly from being served in a vertical bag instead of being wrapped horizontally. Clean shop. Depressed staff.

27/05/2025: Large portion of fish & chips, good value. Only thing was the batter wasn’t crispy enough, too doughy.

21/07/2025: On Sunday, I experienced racial abuse from an elderly man in his sixties at Costa in Shankill. Accompanied by my nine-year-old daughter and my younger brother, I witnessed an unsettling encounter. The man struggled to use the card machine, resembling an iPad, prompting my brother to politely suggest that he tap the top part. In response, the man aggressively retorted, "Mind your own f-ing business and go back to where you came from." He further stated, "You are in Ireland now." When I asked him to elaborate on that statement, he refused to respond. I also heard him mumble something about being a woman, though I couldn't catch the exact words. His behavior escalated as he began licking his lips and eyeing me in an unsettling manner. He had a distinct accent, which I could not pinpoint—possibly African or New Zealand—but it was clearly foreign. When I confronted him regarding his remarks and inquired about his origins, he merely laughed and declined to answer. This experience has left me feeling unsafe about returning to that Costa. Such behaviour is utterly unacceptable and should not be tolerated in our community.

05/07/2025: Bright, spacious café on two floors. The barista (tall, red-haired guy) was very fast and skilled, yet he always found the time to smile. Perfect spot for meet-ups and my cortado was delicious!

30/08/2025: We love this spot. The bakery stuff is pretty good, I wish they had a microwave to warm the them. Coffee is okay and the environment is already pretty. You could swing by Box’d for a coffee after a walk in the path.

23/08/2025: Always a long queue here and then you wait for the food to be a disappointment. This is probably the worst burger I’ve had. The bun is BURNT. It smells horrid cause of that. The bacon was horribly cooked. Awful. Just awful. So so disappointed. To make it worse the hot chocolate and coffee tasted like water with some powders.

17/07/2025: Not gonna lie I don’t eventually want to write this review. We waited 50 minutes for them to bring me the wrong order, I ordered chicken roll with sweet chilli, corn and lettuce but they gave me bread and chicken, there was some kind of seasoning in the chicken and it was cold. Had to vomit in the bathroom for 15 minutes afterwards. For €20 each this is ridiculous!

14/07/2025: AVOID. AWFUL OVERPRICED FOOD AND TERRIBLE SERVICE . Ordered vegetarian breakfast burrito. It was cooked in same pan as bacon. When I queried this it was denied by staff member. Fortunately I could see food being cooked from my table only a few feet away. When I asked the staff member she blatantly denied meat and vegetarian food cooked in same pan. I had to walk her over to cooking area and point it out to her which seemed to leave her speechless. My son ordered Irish breakfast which was inedible. No apology from staff or manager. Very disappointing. When I asked for the bill the waitress asked me if I wanted the burrito taken off bill?! Shocked at how bad this was.

16/08/2025: Gone to dogs really disappointed wit food was like microwave. Wouldn't recommend

28/06/2025: Haven’t had a Pizza Max in a long while but I am glad i tried it again, it was delicious including the sides and most importantly arrived piping hot. Definitely has improved and will return again 😀
