The best restaurants in Dublin

02/09/2025: Best oat flat white in Ireland. And the food was lovely too.

22/08/2025: What a wonderful café and meetingplace in a former chocolate and jam factory. Delicious breakfast and meals and nice coffee or tea.

21/09/2025: Lovely lady, delicious scones and soda bread

01/08/2025: Old school Dublin at its best. Lovely team and great cakes - I had lemon drizzle which was lovely. Great to see them featured in the Irish Times.

01/12/2025: Coffee and service was nice, all be it a little slow.

28/11/2025: It's a nice place. The staff are very friendly like Michelle and Becky themselves.

21/12/2025: Another spot where you will definitely enjoy your time with your friends or family!! One of our stop doing pub hopping!! They have indoor and outdoor spaces, whiskey lounges and traditional drinks and food! Thank you Bar Rua for the great hospitality and service!!!

21/12/2025: They have been awarded Ireland’s most awarded brewer in 2024. Bay Ale was so good.

12/11/2025: The food was absolutely banging would definitely come back and try again come down if you haven’t tried would highly recommend

11/11/2025: The food was good, but I ended up throwing up more than I ate.

26/11/2025: Embarrassed for the chef who calls himself a professional and served up the main course I endured. Cold undercooked ravioli and a portion size that would leave a 3 year old hungry. And that wasn't the worst meal in our group. Overpriced under sized slop. Won't be going back.

23/11/2025: Absolutely the worst restaurant experience I've ever had. The staff were incredibly rude and the food was disgusting. I was shocked by how poorly I was treated; they even laughed at me and made rude gestures when I asked a simple question. The environment was far from welcoming. I will definitely not be returning, and honestly, everyone working there should be fired immediately for such appalling behaviour

24/08/2025: This is a great bar . Spotlessly clean and professional run. There’s a huge selling of top shelf whiskey. Well worth a visit

14/08/2025: HELLO “KITTY KIERNAN’S” A VERY NICE, TYPICALLY IRISH BREWERY FULL OF HISTORY, VERY CLOSE TO THE CENTER OF DUBLIN. THE STAFF IS VERY FRIENDLY AND PROFESSIONAL. EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT. THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING. BEST RESPECTS AND SEE YOU SOON. 🍀🙏☮️

16/12/2025: We arrived last Sunday , Dec 14, going to The Helix for a show so we thought we'd catch some of the Christmas buzz in Hedigans. It was practically empty, maybe 20 people in it. Still we ordered a drink. I ordered a pork roll with chips priced at 15e. Prices were very expensive. My wife had a Jameson with red lemonade separate. When we got the bill I was charged 17e for a Pork brioche, not what I ordered, and my wife was charged 1.30 for the splash of lemonade. Ridiculous. You expect these prices in the city centre but not out in Glasnevin. We won't be back.

21/11/2025: Excellent service & lovely lunch made for an enjoyable experience

29/10/2025: I ordered a burger and my girlfriend the full Irish. The burger was poor but if it was just that I wouldn't be leaving a review. Every item of her meal was wrong in some way. Even the toast was ruined as it was so hard it hurt her mouth. I thought she might be exaggerating so had some too, and my mouth still hurts an hour later.

23/10/2025: Food was delicious but €17 for a full breakfast and then coffee as extra. It's 2 sausages 2 rashers pudding and an egg. C'mon.

06/12/2025: Delicious food, great staff. We arrived 12pm Saturday for a quick sit in bite. They were so accommodating! The beef burger meal and chickenburger meal were delicious!

06/12/2025: The chicken wings were absolutely delicious. The blue cheese sauce went perfectly with the wings. Excellent service and great background music. I highly recommend BuJo to everyone; it's a very family-friendly place.

20/10/2025: Lovely decorated cafe with an abundance of gorgeous cakes (haven't eaten any so can't comment) Unfortunately the unfriendly staff, who border on being rude, let's it down every time. The final straw was yesterday, Sunday, when I was left standing at the counter while the young waitress counted money at the till. She made no comment on the delay and totally ignored me. After 3/4 minutes, I gave an exasperated sigh & the male waiter, who was standing nearby, came to take my order. No apology & of course, no smile or comment made. Obviously people go there as it's a nicely decorated cafe with a great array of cakes. But I can take my business elsewhere where the customers are treated with some respect. We are after all, keeping these surly staff in a job

09/10/2025: Hi I love everything about Taste of Province. I come almost every, my family and friends meet me there a lot. One thing that is upsetting is the cleaner, she makes so much noise, pushing the tables and chairs around .

08/12/2025: To gentrified the ramen was too oily with no flavour. we were sat indoor on a picnic table that was dirty and wet (sharing elbow to elbow with strangers) and the picnic benches were situated one in front of the other making it impossible to get in and out of without putting your hand on some ones back. Music was so loud i could not have any conversation. Overhyped.

30/11/2025: Great restaurant! Plenty of gluten-free options. Tasty ramen. Chill vibes. The staff very polite and chill.

19/09/2025: Really good black pudding sandwich. Great service & surprisingly quiet given its location.

05/08/2025: Really delicious sandwiches as well as the desserts…. Very nice! We recommend!

28/11/2025: I love this coffee shop! The staff are so kind, the chai latte is amazing, and next time I’m definitely trying their soup; it smells incredible! I can hear them making it fresh in the kitchen right now

16/11/2025: A real little gem in the heart of Dublin. There’s something very special about Basil’s, as you step in the lighting is perfection, you’re wrapped in a warm glow immediately & then the aroma of freshly brewed coffee fills the air. Then there’s Farzan, open & friendly & the epitome of service with a smile. There’s freshly cut sandwiches & sweet treats a’plenty not to mention the sauna & cold plunge directly next door. The whole offering can only be described as ‘unique’. Don’t visit Dublin without stopping off at Basil’s, you’ll be very glad you did!

17/10/2025: Clueless staff is an understatement

26/09/2025: Thank you Offbeats Pearse for sponsoring us (TCD's Emergency Medicine Society)! The donuts were perfectly chewy, and there was a very good variety of donuts -- our favorite was the Boston Creme. Highly recommend this cute and quaint donut shop.
