The best restaurants in Dublin

03/10/2026: Very nice place, despite it was in the Dundrum shopping centre

09/09/2026: Hello i would like to adress the problems in this place. Very Rude staff out of the 4 times i went. I do not recommend this place to ANYONE everyone in that coffee shop needs to sort themselves out

29/06/2026: Food is ok but the service is very bad anytime I went here i was waiting for me food for over 30 minutes and then I would be missing an item. If you go here make sure you have all your food before you leave.

19/06/2026: The wait is very long, the order is wrong, the employees are not friendly and not ready to help, the priority is to issue orders to cars, you can wait more than 25 minutes for 1 burger

29/08/2026: Said open til 9pm on Saturday, went there at 7:45pm and they were closed. Update your times, wasting peoples time

11/06/2026: Good middle Eastern food. Butchery area is neat and clean

07/08/2026: What a terrible pub. No words about the way it is managed as it isn’t. What I will talk about is the lovely staff they have to offer that pour their heart and soul into their shifts, whether you see them once or you see them all week they are lovely. Bar staff excellent. Very friendly. Floor staff high top quality. Very high standard of customer service. Two of staff I’d like to point out Jody being the first AMAZING. Really high standard, she knows what she’s doing 0 flaws. Might be treated badly and absolutly ran off her toes but she still shows up and puts her best foot forward. Soraya whom I was served by a month ago exceptional waitress, you need her she’s there, no questions asked. She comes in and really gets the job done, a polite and funny little girl. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for staff, no stars for the pub itself.

05/06/2026: Great Local Pub in Cabra Serves Great Food and Drinks. Also offers Function Room for All Special Occasions at Very Competitive Rates!!!

15/11/2025: I still don’t understand why you need to order at the door and then grab a table while they have many waiters that can take the order. Restaurant and food is great but just ordering at the counter and getting a paper number seems a bit cheap compared to the price of food you pay.

04/10/2025: Rang just now and asked could I order for collection guy said “Goodbye” and slammed the phone Guess they don’t do delivery 🤷‍♂️

20/09/2026: Went here for some dinner with my partner, there was a very long wait to get served. After our order was taken, it took half an hour for just our drinks to come out. I saw my beer sitting on the countertop for about 20 minutes before being brought to us, at which point it had gone flat and lost the foam, and I saw the barman just stir it with a spoon to make the illusion of foam on top before it was brought to us. After a further 45 minutes waiting for our food, mine came out stone cold. I mentioned this to a waiter, and he apologised and said the chef would remake it. After yet another half an hour wait, the same salmon was returned to me, it had just been microwaved, and the sauce was coagulated and lumpy. At this point we were very frustrated and said that the food was just microwaved and not remade, at which point the waiter gave us a complimentary drink voucher for the bar, but considering the earlier drinks experience I just gave it away to another customer in case they could use it instead. I would not recommend it here in the slightest.

26/07/2026: A disaster! No leadership, thus such average reviews.

25/09/2026: The chilli chicken bowl is really good. Moreover the staff working last night were very helpful! Thank you! They also have a good selection of wines!

19/07/2026: Love getting the Saba spice bags, a real treat. Sadly in recent months the size of the curry sauce has less than halved and barley covers a few chips. You now have to buy a spare curry sauce to cover even a decent amount. Sad because I’ve stopped buying regularly as it’s too expensive with the extra sauce

14/10/2026: Over half an hour to get food. Had to ask 4 times for tomato ketchup. My big mac was missing big mac sauce. Absolute shambles. Not fast food just naff food.

13/10/2026: Rude staff, if you will pay with cash always trying to leave you short at least 1-2 euro, everything much more overpriced than other McDonald's and its not few cents. Quality of food much lower than other places. Never again!

10/10/2026: If you enjoy hair in you’re food and rude staff / owners this is most definitely the place for you.

23/08/2026: Outstanding food, quick and friendly service, I wish I had found this take-out a long time ago. Will be my new "go-to" and already looking forward to the next time.

09/08/2026: In the soft electric glow of Rathmines, where the evening drapes itself in a velvet hush, there stands a McDonald’s that is less a restaurant and more a quiet stage for the small dramas of the city. Its golden arches rise like a beacon for the restless, the wandering, and the riders who drift through Dublin’s southern streets with the easy confidence of men who know the night intimately. Inside, the air hums with a gentle promise. The tiled floor gleams like a polished ballroom, and the chrome counters catch the light in a way that would make even Gatsby pause, admiring the sheen of a world both familiar and strangely grand. Here, the riders gather — delivery men with their insulated satchels, cyclists with rain‑kissed jackets, and the occasional motorbike poet whose helmet still carries the scent of petrol and possibility. They meet not by arrangement but by instinct, drawn to this place as if by some shared, unspoken understanding. There is a peculiar romance in the way they linger over their coffees and late‑night meals, exchanging nods, half‑smiles, and stories that dissolve into the warm air. The staff move with a brisk grace, as though they too are part of the nightly choreography, keeping the rhythm steady while the riders drift in and out like characters in a short, shimmering tale. McDonald’s Rathmines is not merely a stop along the way — it is a refuge, a rendezvous, a modern‑day speakeasy for those who traverse the city’s arteries. In its neon glow, one feels the faint pulse of something larger: camaraderie, ambition, and the quiet hope that tomorrow’s ride will be smoother, brighter, and touched by the same strange magic that fills this place after dark.

19/07/2026: Dry and cold fries, 2 burgers were missing and treat for kids were missing.

02/09/2026: Chicken balls last night were very chewy

25/08/2026: I have ordered from here for a long time but last night myself and partner got a chicken curry the chicken was not done right the chips were only hard didnt taste right at all later that night we both got very ill getting sick and a temperature which disappointed me as it was always good , turned me off ordering again

17/01/2026: Absolutely awful experience. Service was diabolical the place was extremely loud and expensive. I paid €8.79 for 4 mozzarella sticks with a bland sauce and neary 30 euro for a bacon and cheese burger with a small portion of chips. Waiting 20 minutes for someone to take away my starter after I had finished and was not even given a knife or fork for my main course. Avoid this place at all costs, you will pay nearly half the price for better food and service in Eddie Rockets across the road.

15/01/2026: Very greasy food, lost its charm years ago

24/07/2026: I came early in the morning and barista didn’t pay any attention, I said good morning and still no attention she was just continuing to do what she was doing, until another next customer came. It is rude service

19/05/2026: Felt very welcomed by the 2 employees who were working hard at serving people and cleaning out the restaurant. Drink was made perfectly and employees were smiling. A 5/5 in my Starbucks book.

28/06/2026: amazing service and staff! everyone is so lovely and their service is faster than any other 4 star i’ve been to

19/05/2026: Im sorry but i want u to be 3 star pizza

28/08/2026: My partner is in love with there bread, the vegan cheese cakes are my go too options for ky vegiterian freinds bdays. Great place to get a coffee before going too the 2 playgrounds just up the road.

20/08/2026: Nice bakery to take away. Staff was quick to assist. The almond croissant was superb. Pain au chocolate the same, good quality. Take away coffee maybe it's a bit expensive but good taste.
