The best restaurants in Dublin

14/03/2026: We had good service from Dharmendra. Graet guy. Must visit

14/03/2026: Dharmendra he is so good at the lobby and he is really respectful

17/10/2025: I used to staying with the owner Valerie when I did my Leaving Certificate a decade ago in Ireland. When I knew she's now owning a cafe, I came here to taste the food. I love the Chatty Fox Special, great taste of bacon on toast and latte. I love the chocolate brownie! 🤤 I'd recommend to my friends that whenever they visit Dublin, this is a place you must visit! Staff here and Valerie are doing an incredible job running the place. I will come back again next time here in Dublin. Matthew from Hong Kong, living in Derby, UK.

08/10/2025: Nice cafe full of locals, which is always a good sign. They do a good full Irish and the staff are friendly and helpful. It's a lot bigger than it looks, but any time I've been in there were enough people there to give the place a bit of a buzz and a good atmosphere.

07/04/2026: Fun fact: once owned by Bono. Excellent location for everything, sights, tours, Guinness, shopping, etc. Can be noisy because it's located in Temple Bar district.

18/03/2026: Visited, 13 of us, 2013, was terrific. The Clarence location allowed us to walk to all of Dublin's sights. No cars on bridge over River Liffey out photo point. Less chaotic and more minstrels , jigs, on cobblestone streets -The Porterhouse, the best part of Temple Bar.

15/03/2026: Went to this pub for Rugby match as heard it was good place to watch match and for atmosphere....they removed all the bar stools so standing the whole time which was not great and no food was available...Female bar tender was lovely.

08/03/2026: Great pub but does get jam packed on Rugby day, service is fantastic no matter how busy and great atmosphere, again another must for us when in Dublin

01/04/2026: Superb selection of quality foods in a spotless environment, friendly service and prices that make sense.

31/03/2026: Oh I'm going to really REALLY miss this place when I'll leave Dublin in a few days. Prices are indeed quite high but quality is awesome; I have tested their sandwiches, pastries, individual serves, etc. and never was disappointed. Staff is really nice too. I wish this place existed in my home country!

01/11/2025: Usually butlers is top quality but for the last 4 months I’ve been getting our coffees here and the quality is so poor. Lattes and cappuccinos are being served piping hot, as if it’s being made at the wrong temperature. This makes the coffee go flat quickly so there’s no foam it just has the appearance of an instant coffee. The iced drinks are also coming 3/4 of the way full and taste watered, every time I’ve gotten one it’s either had no syrup, or they made me the wrong version of what I asked. I know some would say it’s not that deep, but for almost €6 a pop I would expect high quality considering other butler cafes never deliver this low of quality I know it’s not the brand however it’s definitely this particular branch or team.

19/08/2025: Great staff very friendly, reasonable price very clean loads of parking

21/03/2026: Absolutely lovely, food , staff, value for money 👍👍

17/03/2026: We were really looking forward to enjoying some great Irish food on St. Patrick’s Day, and unfortunately, the experience was very disappointing. We were seated quickly and placed our order for both appetizers and entrees right away. The appetizers came out promptly and were delicious, but after that, everything went downhill. We waited an extremely long time for our main meals, asking multiple times and speaking with several different staff members. Meanwhile, tables around us were seated, served, and finished their meals while we were still waiting. We were given several explanations, such as the kitchen being busy or delays due to ordering appetizers, but it became clear that our order had never been placed. After asking for help multiple times, another server finally stepped in and our food was eventually brought out. Very frustrating experience, especially on a day we were excited to celebrate.

02/05/2026: Best coffee place in Dublin with super friendly staff and delicious sandwiches!

23/04/2026: Lovely little corner coffee shop with a nice sauna attached to it.

23/12/2025: In the end, I wasn't a big fan of the Bubble waffle batter. I'd recommend the flat waffle that my wife and kids chose instead.

04/12/2025: It’s one of my favorite places to visit. I’ve tried ordering their food before and I really liked it. After trying their waffles, I actually became a waffle lover they’re incredibly delicious♥️. It’s definitely one of the places I’ll keep coming back to. Do you have any kind of loyalty or regular customer discount card?😊

12/11/2025: Nice bar was at a baby gender reveal party here perfect for the occasion

31/10/2025: Nice pub for a quiet pint! Relaxed atmosphere!! Friendly staff!! A little bit more expensive that other pubs in the area, but it's a nicer pub!

22/10/2025: Great spot, great for a quick bite,hot sandwich or the famous ice cream

19/10/2025: Lovely coffee and tasty toastie. Only downside was the Chicken n Stuffing toastie was mostly stuffing.

27/12/2025: Got a takeaway. The mushroom toast & french toast are delicious. The staff are friendly & helpful. Sit-in area is clean, comfy & calm. I'll definitely be a return customer

05/10/2025: This is a gem of a place, little tricky to get to, but worth it . Attentive friendly staff, well presented and tasty food along with a lovely atmosphere . The pancakes are amazing and they have a great deal on toasties . We will visit again!

27/09/2025: The ice cream is good by local standards.

23/09/2025: Great service, good food, reasonably priced but overshadowed by the continuous intrusive disturbance from what would appear to be the manager/owner of the establishment sitting in the booth next to us playing , without using headphones, what sounded like various Tik Tok videos and social media content at a very loud volume. Maybe it might be a good idea to advise patrons and staff alike that the playing of loud video content is prohibited without the use of headphones as it impedes greatly on customers conversation and downtime.

22/12/2025: Went for the Sunday Roast can't recommend this enough

22/12/2025: Overall overpriced for what it is. Nice atmosphere and cocktails etc. Service kind of slow. Steak orders were mixed up and one steak was cold and had to go back to the kitchen. Nice to try but wouldn’t go back.
