The best restaurants in Dublin

12/09/2026: Fun atmosphere with love music and a crowd. IPA was a bit dead hop-wise. Irish coffee was great.

12/09/2026: Great spot for Irish music always an enjoyable night

07/10/2026: Great little place fantastic food well worth a visit.

03/10/2026: Delicious food and great staff! 😋🍽💖💖💖💖

17/09/2026: I don’t usually write reviews, but I had to say something about this place! 😍😍😍 Went in with friends last night and loved the place straight away. The atmosphere is so nice and relaxed, just a really lovely place to sit and have a proper catch-up. The drinks were SO good — Passion Fruit Mojito and I Pink I Love You. Both delicious! 🍹 We ordered Pil Pil Prawns, Salad, Fried Chicken Wings, Seafood Linguine and Fish & Chips… and somehow still had room for the Cheesecake 😂Everything was just so good. Like, every time another dish came out we were like, “oh wow, this is good too!” 😍And guess what? I didn’t take a single photo 😂 I was way too busy eating and chatting with my friend! Definitely going back. There’s still loads I want to try, so I’ll be back for sure. ❤️

12/09/2026: I loved everything. We ordered prawns in pil-pli sauce as a starter, followed by mussels (which were delicious—they had a coconut roquefort sauce that really enhanced the dish) and excellent seafood pasta. 10 out of 10

23/09/2026: Had the Breakfast Tower for Two at Anvil Restaurant and honestly, it was amazing! 😍 Everything was fresh, delicious and beautifully presented. There was a great variety, and the portion was perfect for two people. We really enjoyed every bite and the whole breakfast experience was lovely. Definitely worth trying, and I’ll happily come back again! ❤️

21/09/2026: Excellent service-thanks Evita-goats cheese tart excellent ( though a little beetroot added would have been nice). I had the curry which had a nice kick. Personally I would have preferred a bit more rice and less chips though the chips were lovely. The only thing was the poppadom wasn’t very fresh and was like cardboard. They changed it but no different. Small issue. Lovely atmosphere. Thanks again

31/08/2026: I had the best soup I’ve ever eaten here — absolutely delicious! Definitely something I’ll remember. Greetings from the Germans!

28/08/2026: Excellent experience all round really ;) Great tasty Thai food, staff friend and fast service. More than happy to recommend!!

20/09/2026: Food was ok but we found rude to bring us the bill even tho we had not asked for it... and it's not like we were blocking other clients (had been there for 45 minutes top and half the tables were empty..). The waitress even came back and asked "cash or card ?".. 😒

19/09/2026: Great food and good service. Drinks were strong.

11/09/2026: Super nice place, the atmosphere is lovely, the food is good, and the girls who serve are super friendly. I loved it and want to go back.

24/08/2026: A bit disappointing, after reading the positive reviews. Tempura tasted good but was a little greasy. A noodle dish was uninspired. The sushi/sashimi was generally convincing, with the salmon standing out as the best, the soft-shell crab in a Maki role not entirely fresh tasting. Sake was good and well priced. Nothing really terrible, but did not meet my expectations.

25/08/2026: Nice small café in the heart of Dublin, right next to Christ Church and in walking distance of all the important sights. The seating area is upstairs and very cosy, in a pub-like way. Sitting by the window you can watch the traffic go by. The menu offers a variety of breakfast and lunch options, and there are also good looking pastries to choose from. In addition to all the usual coffee offers, the café has a long list of additional syrups, some of them on the unusual side, if you feel like trying something new. The porridge was nice and came in a fun ramekin. And the flat white was too - however, it was significantly spilled onto the saucer when it arrived. I'd have brought it up with the waitress but she didn't look to be in the mood to put up with it. I give her the benefit of the doubt that she just had an off day, but in terms of service I wasn't impressed. Despite that, I'd still come back for lunch or to try a pastry!

17/08/2026: Lovely place to have a bit of a rest after hiking around Dublin. The coffee and treats were delicious.

17/09/2026: This place is a gem, hidden in plain sight. Right across from Temple Bar. Great wine list, diverse menu, great service! Fish&Chips was great, thick piece of hake! Beef cheeks melt in your mouth! Chicken sandwich was spectacular!

17/09/2026: I AM so impressed! The staff, the wine, the food! All were fabulous! Everything was amazing I cannot recommend enough

10/09/2026: G is good for you. Nice old school pub with great atmosphere

05/09/2026: Great Irish pub with an exceptional atmosphere, a very nice bartender from Brazil and a large selection of draft beers 🙂 If you want to experience a real local pub, stop by 😎

19/09/2026: Super very good food,kind and welcome staff.

06/09/2026: I ordered delivery from here after seeing all the positive reviews, but unfortunately I was sorely disappointed. I received the wrong pizza altogether. What arrived was soggy, poorly packaged and stuck to the top of the cardboard box. The toppings were also completely wrong, there was no pepperoni, which I had ordered, and instead it had raw bell peppers, which I hadn't ordered at all. The chips were equally disappointing: soggy and almost completely flavourless. After waiting for the order, I essentially ended up with a big soggy lump of food on my plate rather than the meal I'd actually paid for. Really disappointing experience, especially given the ratings. I won't be ordering from here again, and I'd recommend using some discernment before ordering based on the reviews alone.

09/09/2026: Love it here, food is delicious, staff are so friendly (and very dog friendly!!). Breakfast bap is unbelievable and great coffee☕️

09/09/2026: Breakfast bap with relish is top notch to say the least

08/08/2026: Really enjoyed the food, and the ube latte was the highlight. It tasted incredibly authentic, almost exactly like the real thing back home in the Philippines. The ube cheesecake was also wonderfully decadent. Definitely worth trying!

06/08/2026: The greatest spot in blanchardstown, Has amazong food and the staff is always lovley to talk to, the cheescake and cofee is amazing. I love the iced coffee. Amazing cosy spot. 10/10

24/09/2026: Very good food, cozy place and excellent service from Alba, highly recommended.

22/09/2026: Good burger, but the apple flavor wasn't strong enough for me, and I would have preferred the burger to be served on the same plate as the fries.

07/09/2026: I stayed here for one night in late August. The quality and especially consistency was better than several 5-star hotels I've stayed at in Europe. My room was well-accommodated and perfectly clean. The AC (which I didn't particularly need that time of year) works very well. Bathtubs in every room is a huge plus, and is the main reason I chose this hotel. I decided to go for the breakfast buffet (17 pounds when booked the day before) and it was definitely worth it. (Typical hot breakfast items, cut fruits, yogurt, juices, pastries, and cappuccinos/any other hot beverage to-order.) The location is perfect for exploring Dublin, very centrally located (walking distance to Trinity College, St Stephen's Green, Little Museum of Dublin, Grafton St, etc.) and for anything further away, you can access public transit easily. Also, the airport express bus has stops close by. (But note that if you are two or more people, it is actually cheaper to get a taxi/rideshare, since the bus ticket is 15 pounds.) I managed to get a very good last-minute deal and the standard prices are a bit out of what I would normally go for, but I will very seriously consider staying here the next time I'm in Dublin because the stay was just that good! Btw, if you like sushi I highly recommend the counter service place Sushi & Go right around the corner. I have lived all over the US and it had some of the most creative and best quality sushi I've ever had. The one thing I'll note is that the hotel is next door to a homeless charity center, and there are queues of homeless people at mealtimes. However, they seemed friendly and orderly and I wasn't bothered (just surprised/confused at first.)

18/07/2026: I checked out of this wonderful hotel today following a 5 night stay with my daughter.. i cannot fault our time here. The service we received from arrival to departure was exemplary and we felt very looked after. Nothing was too much trouble and the staff are so lovely and helpful. The rooms are lovely, and fresh and cleaned daily The location is perfect for getting around. I would not hesitate to book again.
