The Rolling Donut 55 South King Street, Dublin Ireland
Dublin
20/05/2025: Will I travel all the way from San Francisco for donuts? Probably. We came here because we saw these are handcrafted, sourdough donuts that have been around since 1978. That must be something that makes this place awesome. Look at all those selections, especially their vegan donuts! They look so delicious!
We tried a box of three donuts and decided to try Kinder, Dubai, and unicorn. The dough is chewy, but not as chewy as regular donuts. They’re not overly too sweet, and you can easily eat the whole thing in one bite. The Dubai donut, however, is not my favorite. The filling has more cream than crunchy texture, which turns me off. But, I’ll definitely come back for plain donuts, and that’s already good enough!
15/05/2025: 10/10 service.
Delicious donuts for all tastes.
Delicious coffee.
Somewhat high prices.

O'Sheas Merchant
Dublin
08/06/2025: Very nice experience, appetizing dishes, friendly staff, sublime Irish coffee, I highly recommend it.
07/06/2025: Awful service and rude staff. We waited for menu for 30 mins and then eventually had to ask for it. Took them 30 mins to prepare the fish and chips and another 10 minutes to bring the beers - we ate the food before getting the drinks! And the place wasnt even packed!

Toscana
Dublin
09/06/2025: Food and drink was lovely, but the attitude of the staff made for a negative experience, we attended the restaurant having made a booking and we were made to feel rushed and judged the whole time. The staff including the manager gave us dirty looks when we were there past 19:30 for ‘holding up their staff break’ despite our booking being until 20:00. The manager then attempted to smooth it over, after clocking our distaste at the negativity the staff were giving, by giving us a free lemonchelo (which tasted like a mix of handsanatiser and lemsip). Considering the price we paid, of over 100€, for drinks and food it would be expected to receive the same quality of customer service.
Attend for the food but don’t expect a welcoming atmosphere
07/06/2025: I visited Toscan with two friends this week. The food was unreal and the staff were very welcoming. There was a really nice atmosphere too, we will definitely be back and will happily recommend to others!

Castle Vaults
Dublin
13/05/2025: Very good location near bus and tram stops, about 800 m from the heart of the city, easy to get around on foot. Old-fashioned hotel full of charm. Comfortable rooms but poorly soundproofed. Very good breakfasts (buffet, continental or full Irish breakfast). Saturday evening, demonstration of Irish singing and dancing in one of the hotel's two restaurants but very laborious service.
13/05/2025: Excellent choice, great restaurant.

Farmer Browns
Dublin
07/06/2025: Great food and service, especially our waiter Rodrigo was the best! Recommend!
07/06/2025: We have been here for brunch and it was always fantastic. Today was our first time for dinner and it was as good as always. The decor inside is so cute, the staff are friendly and welcoming as well as efficient. We ordered the quesadilla and the chicken Caesar, both great and didn't take long to come out. The lemonade is also so good. Love this place.

Dublin
17/05/2025: Good food but longest wait ever for a sandwich to take away
30/04/2025: Kennedy’s provided home catering for our event recently and they did an incredible job! The food was delicious and the presentation was superb-they were also lovely to deal with and made the whole process so easy for us. Would definitely recommend!

Global
Dublin
20/05/2025: Amazing buffet with variety of tasty dishes. The chicken masala, curry, and roasted duck are must-tries! Loved the live cooking stations—especially the chef frying salmon and squid and making fresh sushi. Staff are super polite and helpful.
Tip: It’s a bit hidden—go to the 2nd floor of Dundrum Town Centre, next to Penneys, go through the JD sport shoe store, to Cinema building, then up the stairs to the top floor. Totally worth finding!
11/05/2025: I've read a lot of positive reviews about this place, but unfortunately, my experience was terrible. I've tried almost all of the food available and couldn't manage more than two bites of any of it. I think the Indian food section is the worst. It tastes like it's straight from a can. The quality of the food is terrible. The place itself is pretty dirty... the tables, the windows... not to mention the bathrooms. They smelled like an after-party urinal at 7 in the morning. And there was no toilet paper for the entire hour we were there... without a doubt. I would never go back, nor would I recommend it to my worst enemy.

The Rag Trader
Dublin
04/05/2025: Had a birthday in here and was the perfect venue, staff and food were amazing aswell and booking was really easily facilitated. Would highly recommend !
12/04/2025: Manager is a hot headed, rude alphahole (man). He comes out and screams wt strangers (girls) on the streets, picks up their drinks and throws them out during these temper tantrums, while trying to justify it by saying if you drink near the property he can do what he wants!!! Very scary experience overall when we were not even buying drinks from here

Flower & Bean
Dublin
10/04/2025: This place is gorgeous, love the vibe inside. The staff are so lovely and food is delicious. Much more affordable than a lot of similar places around the area.
27/03/2025: I stopped by this coffee shop this morning while shopping at the plant store next door. While the exterior is charming, the atmosphere inside felt off—especially from the staff.
The woman who took my order was polite, but the barista had a noticeably unpleasant attitude. Despite only a few customers, my iced latte took over 5 minutes to prepare. With two employees working, simple steps like prepping the cup with ice could have sped things up, but no effort was made.
The coffee itself was underwhelming. As someone who works in the industry and frequents specialty cafes, I noticed an odd, almost rancid aftertaste. The limited non-dairy options (only oat and coconut milk) and the €5 price for a small iced coffee felt disproportionate to the quality.
Sadly, I wouldn’t recommend this place to fellow coffee lovers.t.

Vietnom

23/05/2025: Great pork banh mi and a nice chicken rice bowl. These lads know what they are doing! Grab a pint whilst waiting for your food at the bar it's housed in. Great experience.
23/05/2025: Vietnamese style food truck in the back of a pub. Food was really good. Im from a place with a large vietnamese population and it met all my expectations.

19/05/2025: Lovely place to get a pint with live music

Dada
Dublin
11/05/2025: Had a lovely visit here with friends. Every single plate was delicious. The hummus was beautiful, fresh and creamy, the fried spinach was an instant hit with its incredible flavour, it was devoured by all. Most of the group had couscous and really enjoyed it - sharing bites to compare with agreement that they were all very tasty. I had the lamb tangine with prunes, walnut and cinnamon and it was melt in your mouth. I was a gorgeous mix of sweet and savoury, but very rich so if that is not what you're after you might find it too much. I loved it and nothing was left behind.
09/05/2025: Couscous was good! Bread rather old and disappointing. Harira average. Couscous is worth repeating!

Mullingar House
Dublin
10/05/2025: Excellent food and staff. We couldn't wait to try this place. The waiter took the time to have the craic with the young lad in our group. We were not rushed out after the meal either. Oh there is no parking ( only downside)
01/05/2025: Great staff , pints and grub! Best place around to watch soccer 👍
