The best restaurants in Dublin

08/03/2026: Food was insanely delicious. Highly recommend and will be back. Amazing portion sizes also, could barely get up from the table I was so stuffed. Julia and Gunders were amazing also and deserve recognition.

08/03/2026: The food and service were exceptional, Gunders & Julia were amazing! so friendly and accommodating. I will 100% be back here again what a lovely experience

26/12/2025: Like most places, food and drink overpriced. Would have liked more legroom. Bigger live screen would have worked well

25/12/2025: Good spot for concerts. Expensive for food and drinks eat out before go for. Drinks after in town

14/05/2026: One minus is the opening hours.

11/05/2026: Fantastic shopping centre, plenty of choice for everyone. The restaurants are always lovely and very friendly staff. The centre itself is always clean and tidy and very well maintained. There's lots of parking including EV fast chargers. Only negative is the road in the car park is full of potholes and some are very deep and in real need of being repaired.

16/12/2025: A great place to have some delicious cheese bread and reminisce about Brazil.

15/12/2025: It’s always a good time to pão de queijo and talk in português brasileiro, with good staff.

07/05/2026: Great service, first time today. Very respectful bartender “D” was amazing service. 10/10 would recommend

01/05/2026: Absolutely great atmosphere on a Saturday night 🌙 great spot friendly clientele good music and fab people watching spot, miss the bus here is where you drop in

05/11/2025: The classes are great. I quit because the space was not big enough for the number of people and I kept bumping into other people more than I would have liked to.

03/11/2025: This is a very well run and super fun dance academy! Large spaces to learn in and a good location. It’s also a friendly respectful atmosphere. The instructors are all experienced and they know how to teach in a way so that things are enjoyable. If your thinking of learning salsa or bachata I recommend it

03/01/2026: Top staff, good pint, something something Flanders.

21/11/2025: Was refused with a group of my friends by a rude American bartender because I was wearing cargos 😂 he then said it’s because they have a cuff they are tracksuit bottoms. Never seen the like, it you go here because of the name and think it’s an Irish bar expect anything but. It’s a hipster joint where apparently cargos are not allowed

30/10/2025: Met a friend for dinner in Eaton, we had fish and chips, a glass of wine followed by a shared toffee pudding and ice cream. The food was excellent and the service was second to none. We will be back. Thank you.

16/10/2025: A reliable and consistent quality of food. Very friendly staff

15/12/2025: Great coffee, fresh takeaway food (pastry, sandwiches, salads) and a big selection of artisan grocery items including their own range of excellent balsamic vinegar and olive oils. There's also a sit-in option, which I haven't availed of. Warm and friendly service. Id highly recommend this neighbourhood gem.

28/11/2025: The cutest shop and the coffee was lovely. Really friendly and kind service. And you have to try the cinnamon bun!!! Insanely delish!

12/05/2026: emailed them first but no reply Hi Eamon, I didn't want to post a review without giving you the right of reply but I am afraid I must bring this to your attention. I would be a regular enough customer, certainly once a month for drinks and food and usually more. Anyway, I arrived in yesterday around 16:45 and ordered a pint of Rockshore lager (see attached picture of it) and the mushroom soup and special. 1. The soup was cold 2. The special (chicken sizzler) was nice but the girl forgot to tell me the iron plate was scalding and I burnt 2 of my fingers badly in a vain attempt to lift it and scoop onto the plate with the rice 3. My sorry pint you can judge for yourself. Paid my bill (was $32, gave 40 and said keep the change, the girl looked at me as if I had robbed her purse. There was a family with 3 young kids in the area behind me. The 3 kids roared and screamed for the 50 minutes I was in there. And I mean roared the house down. No one said a word. I ended up leaving. Anyway that's my tale of woe. You guys are better than that. I know it because i have always loved going in there

23/04/2026: Only a 14min walk from Killiney Dart station. Great Guinness and service, very clean boozer.

21/04/2026: Very kind, friendly and respectful staff Clean and well kept location Affordable prices Tasty drinks and food

24/03/2026: Coffee is delicious and staff are lovely. Atmosphere is always nice.

06/01/2026: Busy! Small space but lovely coffee.

09/12/2025: Nice and friendly customer service

14/04/2026: If this isn’t the best cocktail bar in the world then it certainly belongs in the discussion. I came back two nights in a row because I loved it so much. The bartender, Rog, is a delight to talk to and has a deep knowledge of how to make a great drink. If you have the chance to sit by the bar, take it so you can appreciate his craft. The menu is extensive and phenomenal. Between my two nights I probably had about eight different cocktails, each one better than the last. I consider this place a must-visit for anyone in Dublin. Be sure to make a reservation before you go!

12/04/2026: Vintage Cocktail Club is a hidden gem tucked right in the heart of Temple Bar — a neighbourhood usually known for loud, busy pubs. This speakeasy offers a completely different experience and is the perfect way to end a day exploring Dublin. There’s no sign out front — just a black door marked “VCC.” You buzz in, and once inside, you’re transported into a moody, upscale space spread across multiple levels. It’s intimate, refined, and feels like a true escape from the chaos outside. The cocktails were expertly crafted. We had the Manhattan and the French 75 — both well-balanced, smooth, and executed at a high level. What really elevated the experience was the service. Our server was personable, professional, and genuinely welcoming, adding to the overall atmosphere. A must-visit in Dublin if you’re looking for something beyond the typical pub scene.

12/04/2026: Best food I’ve had in years. Steak cooked to perfection, all sides bursting with flavours. Great staff and atmosphere, Can’t wait to go back!

10/04/2026: Mixed feelings about Brookwood. I visited with my wife on a Friday just before Valentine’s Day, and the experience got off to a rough start. The host rushed down the stairs and hurried us to our table in a very chaotic way — already a bit of a red flag, even understanding it was a busy night. The food took a while, but to be fair, it was tasty — and priced accordingly, as this isn’t a cheap place. Unfortunately, what really ruined the evening was the service. The staff felt very inattentive and disorganized: bottles of wine being dropped, glasses falling, and at one point two staff members chatting at the bar instead of paying attention to the floor. Overall, the chaotic atmosphere and lack of professionalism took away from what should have been a more polished experience, especially for a place that charges premium prices.

31/12/2025: There was actually no place left to eat... the owner? A really nice man, who said if we wait two minutes, we'll know if anyone has canceled! And they did! We were led to a great spot in the busy restaurant. The woman serving us was Michelle, what a cheerful and sweet person! Full of energy! The food was absolutely perfect!!! The pasta was perfectly al dente, the sauce was just like in Italy 🇮🇹. Not to mention the pizza!!! I've never had such a delicious meal anywhere ❤️ When we're back in Dublin, we'll definitely pop in here again!

29/12/2025: Patricia and all the team were amazing Great food Lovely wine Great evening 😍😍🥳
