The best restaurants in Dublin

21/08/2025: Fantastic hidden gem of a bakery with lovely, friendly staff. Tonka bean pasty is absolutely sensational

10/08/2025: Excellent pan o chocolate and they use jersey cow milk in the tea and coffee.

11/03/2026: Well worth visiting when in town for the pint and a nice variety of lovely food

09/03/2026: It did the job, had breakfast and a cuppa but its just missing something.

11/03/2026: Although the blueberry pancakes are delicious, I'm not sure they're worth the price. Almost $18.

10/03/2026: Popped in for breakfast on Sunday. The food was very nice.

20/03/2026: The service was quite good, the food was good, and there was little wait. I would go back.

19/03/2026: Really nice atmosphere and food with friendly staff. Very enjoyable experience

03/11/2025: We had the Chef’s Menu at Craft and it was absolutely outstanding – incredible value at €39 for the quality and amount of food. You get to taste everything, and honestly, we couldn’t pick a favourite starter because they were all so good. We had the pork chop main - so good and as always the roast potatoes were unreal! From the brown bread right through to dessert, every dish was delicious. We’re so lucky to have this place in Harold’s Cross – can’t recommend it enough! The service deserves a mention too - really lovely atmosphere. Well done to all at Craft. We will be back soon.

11/10/2025: Plates full of flavour. Thanks you for lovely evening

07/03/2026: nice coctails and music. has potential but arepas was crazy salty. and service was so slow.

07/03/2026: Delicious food and great staff, full recommend

23/03/2026: Staying with work in The West County Hotel and went for walk in Phoenix Park. Called in here for bite to eat and a drink on way back. first thing that strikes you is the interior is really nice and the pub has real character. Food was excellent with an extensive menu and staff were just nice people. Will definitely be back and would strongly recommend it. It's outside appearance doesn't prepare you for how nice it is inside.

21/03/2026: The incredible historical depth and the remarkably cozy atmosphere of this premier traditional pub in the heart of Chapelizod make it an absolutely spectacular destination for anyone who values authentic Irish hospitality and literary heritage in Dublin. I spent a long time enjoying a perfectly poured pint and exploring the classic wooden interior because the general energy of the building is very inviting and every single corner offers a level of vintage charm that is remarkably consistent with the high standards of historic Dublin establishments. I really loved the professional kindness of the local bartenders and the thoughtful preservation of the Joyce related memorabilia because the balance of the old world tradition and the friendly community vibe is truly impressive and it provides a satisfying and rewarding experience for every visitor. The facility is maintained with a great sense of local pride and I noticed that the environment remains respectful and warm for families looking for a relaxing meal after a long walk through the nearby Phoenix Park grounds. It is a must visit for any resident or traveler who appreciates a well managed independent pub where the quality of the service is a main priority and the surrounding views of the Liffey river add a layer of natural beauty to the entire visit. I also appreciated the clean organization of the seating areas and the general sense of warmth within the lounge because it encourages a relaxed and mindful appreciation of the local pub culture while soaking in the vibrant charm of the Dublin landscape. Even though it is a popular spot for weekend regulars the organization of the service is executed with such care that you always feel like a valued guest during your stay. I will definitely be returning here soon for another evening because the combination of the prime location and the unbeatable historical profile is truly a highlight of the local neighborhood scene.

02/12/2025: Wow this is a little hidden gem :) It is in a little random place but once you find it, it is a cozy and warm place to be! Great for kids and the food... is one of the best bang for buck deals in Dublin!!

27/11/2025: This place is gorgeous. The food is carefully sourced, well made and fairly priced, but above all delicious. Sitting by the window with a coffee in an enamel cup is a singular joy. I have noticed it is really family friendly also. The owners have created something really special here.

22/12/2025: Cute teahouse with the sweetest waiter. Be sure to try the sausage rolls with relish.

05/12/2025: I have passed by this chocolatier’s many times . That changed yesterday. The layout inside is a feast for the eyes , so many beautiful chocolate creations inside . The man serving us yesterday was so friendly . We had a hot chocolate and an americano and had to try the cakes. So picked up a rocky road and a chocolate caramel shortcake. Have to say everything was outstanding. Fell in love with the place. You seriously need to give this beautiful place a visit. I know my hot chocolate and this was one of the best.

30/03/2026: We had chicken Tandoori, chilli Momo, thali set and Choila, Everything was top notch A class. Best Nepalese we ever had in Ireland. Highly recommended!!

23/03/2026: Great local place for great Indian fusion food. Great value and consistently good!!

13/03/2026: Came in on a rainy afternoon to try our first boxty dish. It did not disappoint. Food was great! Service was impeccable!

13/03/2026: Food was great. We had Mike as our server and he was a wealth of information and entertainment. Really enjoyed our evening there

24/12/2025: The Christmas sandwich is possibly the best thing I will eat all year, 10/10 amazing oh my god

12/12/2025: I had a really gorgeous seasonal sandwich here today on freshly-made focaccia inside the very beautiful Powerscourt Centre. It’s always a good bet for a lovely lunch or stop for coffee and cake. Highly recommend!

06/11/2025: Best coffee in the neighborhood! Relaxed atmosphere for a great weekend treat or a quick latte on your way to start the day! ;)

22/10/2025: Absolutely love this place! This coffee shop is hands-down my favorite spot in town. The coffee is always rich, smooth, and perfectly brewed — you can really taste the quality in every cup. The staff are warm, friendly, and always remember my order, which makes it feel extra special. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, perfect for both getting some work done or just relaxing with friends. Their pastries are fresh and delicious, too. Highly recommend this place to any coffee lover — it’s a gem!

28/03/2026: It's not a "dingy" pub where the tables tell stories from the last 200 years... The bar area has booths, bar stools at small tables, and the counter... a few steps up there's a bistro area that's great for eating... The food was excellent and the service was attentive. I saw my first rugby match there – really interesting! The music started with folk and later became a bit more modern... I didn't check out the upper floors...

26/03/2026: I came to watch a football match and through all the chaos of ordering food and drinks Luis was the perfect bartender not only with his service but checking regurarly our order. Any bar would be pleased to have Luis as a bartender

15/08/2025: A great place to go if you want to try a full Irish breakfast. High-quality ingredients and perfectly cooked. A very pleasant terrace. You can go there with your eyes closed, you won't be disappointed.

14/08/2025: Really nice chic place. First time there today and will be sure to visit again
