The best restaurants in Dublin

24/08/2025: Great food, slightly slow in getting drinks outside busy periods

22/08/2025: If I could give minus stars I would.Came in, quite busy. I found a table, it was dirty but that's ok. I thought well someone will be around to clean it. Fast forward 10 minutes, no sign of any staff. A lady on a table nearby found a spray and cloth and cleaned her own table. I did the same as I had family members meeting me. I ordered drinks for the table at 17:10. The drinks arrived at 17:35. Absolute joke, went up to see what the story was and told we had to wait. Then the app was down conveniently. I know it's a weatherspoons, but the service should be a bit better.

19/08/2025: Stopped here with a stag do on a hot summer's day. We spent all our time in the courtyard where there were multiple bars, two live singers and plenty of TV screens for the football. We were probably quite rowdy at times and appreciate the service we received. We all ate here too and the buffalo chicken wings with loaded fries that I ate were great value for money.

13/08/2025: The manager of the place (a Spanish-speaking girl) treated us very badly when we were more than 20 people spending a lot there because we were having a farewell party! All because the kitchen closed, and we asked a security guard if we could bring in a pizza, he said yes, and the manager was very violent telling us that we couldn't eat there! We understood but it was poorly organized on their part!! 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

14/08/2025: For a building that has so much history to and known name its a shame that the building isn't cared for. From a bus empty holders for flower boxes, tampons and durex on display instead Plus side food and pints are on par with any pub nearby

16/06/2025: Extremely rude barman. Was told we wouldn't be served because we had kids with us. Barman seemed to be unaware of law allowing kids on premise until 9pm. Very few other customers even in the pub. Avoid!

18/08/2025: I visited Jimmy Rabbitte's Pub with a friend, and upon arrival, we were speaking in our native language. The bouncer checked my ID and informed me that the pub operates a 23+ policy, so we couldn't enter. However, two Irish girls who arrived after us were not asked for their IDs and were allowed entry without issue. This inconsistency in enforcement felt discriminatory and left us feeling unwelcome. It's disappointing when policies aren't applied equally to all customers. I do not suggest this racist pub to anyone.

04/08/2025: Do not let u dance or do the work

12/02/2025: I’m Turkish and there is a Turkish man which he is probably manager or the owner of the place. He was swearing to the staff and he was so rude to the customers as well. Never again!

21/01/2025: I ate my first ever kunafa here. It was very rich and delicious. Staff was lovely.

03/09/2025: Some food missing from order and hair found in food advise to keep away

12/08/2025: San Marino food is good driver didn't speak English and had no change I was going to sit down to enjoy my dinner and was expected to go over to the shop and get change extremely rude just not on rang chippy and the boss hung up this country doesn't feel like home an more.. 🙄😠 Expected to leave my friend an her son with autism on his own an if not without a dinner. What delivery if they know your paying Cash doesn't bring Change 🙄 the spar shop is 2mins across the road so I said will you go using a many hand gestures as I could to his disgust he agreed an came back with change no tip for him...

24/06/2025: Un pequeño hallazgo fantástico cerca de nuestro Air BnB en Drumcondra. Decidimos que íbamos a probar un par de Brunch Places que encontramos que eran recomendados en la zona, pero este era tan bueno, que terminamos yendo allí en ambos días. Gran personal y muy eficiente y conocedor del menú y las recomendaciones. La comida era preciosa, muy fresca y el café era muy bueno también helado y caliente. Mi pareja también tomó uno de los zumos de naranja frescos en la segunda visita, que fue maravilloso. Durante las visitas tuvimos los huevos y las patatas, el aguacate aplastado, el rollo de desayuno brioche y los huevos benedict! No podría culpar a nada de eso y comería aquí un par de veces a la semana si viviera en Dublín! El tiempo también era muy bueno mientras estábamos de visita por lo que decimos fuera, pero el interior estaba muy limpio y agradable. Siempre tiene un asiento y un servicio brillante. Si estás en el área de Dublín y te apetece un gran Brunch... ¡no mires más allá de esta pequeña joya!

02/06/2025: Pasé de camino a Croke Park para un poco de comida con mi hijo celíaco, el personal muy servicial considerando que estaba muy ocupado. La comida era deliciosa, el café excelente. Muy recomendable

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.

10/03/2025: Food from Chutni has always been incredible however, the lack of follow up from the establishment after one of their drivers was threatening to my friend for parking in a public car park is horrific. I have contacted Chunti twice in relation to this, both times being promised the owner will contact me but after 6+ weeks I have yet to hear from them. Their driver threatened to have my friends car clamped because she parked in the public car park, much further down from the establishment. I explained to him that having lived in the area for 20 years - a clamping agency has never been employed/ enforced there. There are also no signs up within the car park stating clamping is in operation also. The establishment staff assured me that there is no clamping agency enforced in the car park, advising me that the driver only works for them every so often - which is untrue as he is seen there almost daily when they are open. Really disappointed in how they have responded to this. If it was a group of males the driver would have minded his own business however, he decided to intimidate young girls, one who is also heavily pregnant.

10/03/2025: Great local take away. Always consistent

18/08/2025: The toasted banana bread is delicious. Staff super friendly. The calm atmosphere inside makes you almost forget you’re in the heart of city centre

31/07/2025: Day old pastry. Deal advertised as any made drink and any pastry ordered a drink and they then stipulated it had to be coffee with no modifications. My mum with severe allergies ordered an oat milk tea to be given the wrong tea and cows milk. Staff were more annoyed at us than apologetic even though they did admit they knew the order was for oat milk. Bad day.

30/08/2025: Mi experiencia en 10 Fleet Street fue nada menos que espantosa. Una bebida completa fue sacada de nuestra mesa mientras todavía estábamos bebiendo, y en lugar de manejar un simple error con profesionalidad, el personal optó por burlarse e insultarnos. La camarera se rió en nuestras caras y nos llamó mentirosos. Cuando pedimos hablar con el gerente, la situación de alguna manera se deterioró aún más —se alejó en medio de la conversación, me levantó la mano en la cara para callarme, nos dijo que estaba “demasiado ocupado” para lidiar con nuestra queja y también nos llamó mentirosos. Este nivel de falta de respeto tanto del personal de primera línea como de la dirección es absolutamente inaceptable en cualquier entorno de hospitalidad. Lo que debería haber sido una resolución directa se convirtió en un ejercicio de humillación y hostilidad. El comportamiento aquí demostrado refleja una completa falta de profesionalidad, rendición de cuentas y atención básica al cliente. Recomiendo encarecidamente evitar 10 Fleet Street si espera ser tratado incluso con las normas mínimas de cortesía y respeto.

13/08/2025: By far, one of the best steaks I've ever had. It was cooked to perfection. The sauce, sautéed onions...it just elevates the dish to the next level. This dish was paired with the Shiraz on the wine menu. The staff is friendly and attentive! I'm glad I tried this because I had their seasonal gnocchi a few days ago, and it just didn't hit the spot.

08/09/2025: Avoid this place at all costs. This was my second terrible experience at the Duke Street premises, and it will certainly be my last. The staff are consistently rude and unfriendly the moment you walk through the door. Even the greeter at the door doesn’t bother to welcome you.No assistance is ever offered and any questions are met with dismissive, snappy responses. To make matters worse, I was rudely interrogated about my identity at the desk by an older, blonde female member after I accidentally gave the wrong phone number,despite being a loyal customer for years. The elitist attitude from staff is completely unacceptable, especially from people simply selling coffee pods. I will not be returning, and I would strongly advise others to spend their money elsewhere. I can see from the other reviews that this is not the first time this has happened

23/08/2025: Three weeks ago I was walking in Grafton and I went there to browse. It was a long time that I wanted to buy a Nespresso coffee machine but couldn’t decide! That day I was so lucky as ‘Vira’ gave me an advice! I could buy the best coffee machine with the best price! She absolutely is a star!!! 💫 This week I went to buy my coffee and Tomy made an incredible iced coffee! I can’t be happier 😊

23/07/2025: It's OK as a pub goes. Friendly service. Decor need a bit of an update

06/07/2025: Great cricket in this place. Will be back

17/05/2025: Los baños de señoras tienen un piso que no se ha limpiado correctamente en años. Los lavabos están sucios, sin jabón. Todo el lugar necesita un buen fregado. No es un buen baño, para los turistas que visitan la ciudad supuestamente justa de Dublín!

03/05/2025: Llegó a las 2. 00 traigo tragos en el bar. Cuando usé a las damas no había rollo de papel higiénico en ninguno de los cubículos y el inodoro estaba guiñado. No parecía limpio. Los muebles del bar en general necesitarían una renovación. La elección de comida era muy limitada.

24/11/2024: Not sure what happened with this spot. Some years back it used to be great coffee and good pastries. Then they changed to cheap coffee over covid and the quality never improved again, although with the shift towards bakery it was still a good spot, with subpar coffee but great pastries. Every now and then that nostalgia will bring me back but today I paid a fortune for a carrot & rocket sandwich in stale bread to a cashier that didn't really want us there. I hope whatever the new location is will bring back the old standards.

17/11/2024: My go to place for pastries - cinnamon bun, coffee walnut bun, almond croissant, the cookies… I’ve had them here many times and was never disappointed.
