The best restaurants in Dublin

07/09/2026: Nice place ... but they automatically take a 10% tip? That's a big no. Especially when the service, food and offering was sub par.

29/08/2026: Lovely place to have dinner, I was here on a work trip and had dinner alone. I ordered the salad with beef strips and it was amazing, great portion size and the beef was so juicy! I had great service from all the waitresses and it was a lovely atmosphere. There is a beautiful bar as well if you want to just go for drinks. Great for families, groups, couples especially for a date or if you dine alone.

11/10/2026: Chicken wings were very poor. "Budgie wings". Didn't come with celery or blue cheese. No sauce. Asked 6 times for the chips. Fish was okay but came with very few chips. 5 attempts to order 3 drinks. Lot's to work on. No options of craft beers.

25/09/2026: Lovely room nice and clean perfect for couple nights stay just one thing missing a spoon to stir tea n coffee

27/09/2026: I stopped here every morning during my short trip. Great people-watching spot and a relaxed atmosphere. There was never too many or too few people dining in. Reasonable prices too

10/08/2026: The woman who served us was very friendly, but the price for a coffee was outrageous.

24/09/2026: Great coffee and something to go with it 🍪 You can charge your phone. There's a park nearby 🌿

01/09/2026: Last Tuesday around 3:00 PM, a female staff member—who appeared to be Brazilian—exhibited severe racial discrimination against Asians. She could not distinguish between Chinese and Taiwanese people, which was already bad enough, but she then loudly mocked and criticized the English grammar my classmate and I were using. We came here and paid money to learn English, and we even brought a large group of students to your establishment to spend money. Despite this, she went so far as to kick us out and told us that we had better go somewhere else next time. We were not yelling or making noise. It was purely an act of racial discrimination; she explicitly told my classmate that she simply dislikes Chinese people. If you continue to hire staff like this, are you not worried about ruining your business? I will be filing a formal complaint with your general manager regarding this employee's unacceptable behavior.

19/10/2026: Amazing chocolates in Grafton street so yummy!

11/10/2026: Nice coffee, some members of staff couldn't be less bothered if they tried.

13/10/2026: I personally had one of the best Ox Cheeks that I ever try,I will come back ,for sure

21/08/2026: Delicious food, very friendly service, and a pleasant atmosphere make this restaurant a great choice for dinner with friends. The journey there isn't excessive.

19/09/2026: I’ve been coming here for a year I always go when the baby is asleep and all the staff treat me well, except for one Indian woman who always gives me dirty looks or leaves me talking to myself. Twice, when I asked her to speak slowly because I didn't understand what she was saying, she was extremely rude; yet she smiles at other customers—it seems like she picks and chooses whom she treats well.

18/09/2026: Sockets do not function. Overpriced.

18/10/2026: We ate delicious traditional dishes here

17/10/2026: We stopped on the way back to our hotel from the Temple area. Happily we.were sat right away. Hubby ordered the lasagna dinner and I had the Cajun chicken burger. Both dishes were yummy.

14/10/2026: Very good fish. Staff very friendly. Great quarter pounder and great value.

03/10/2026: Great food,always nice and fresh..

11/12/2025: ​The Camden Court Hotel is, quite simply, a five-star experience wrapped up in Dublin's most well active neighborhood. From the moment I stepped into the beautifully appointed lobby, I knew I was in for a treat. This isn't just a place to sleep; it's a genuine highlight of any trip to the capital. ​ The Unbeatable Location & Convenience ​Nestled perfectly on Camden Street, the location is prime. You are literally steps away from Dublin's best pubs, dining, and nightlife, yet the hotel itself provides a quiet, restful sanctuary. Grafton Street, iveagh Gardens and St. Stephen's Green are just a short, pleasant walk away. For those traveling for business or attending an event, the connectivity is flawless. ​ Luxurious Comfort & Spotless Rooms ​My room was an absolute haven. It was immaculately clean, spacious, and designed with a superb eye for comfort and modern aesthetics. The bed was cloud-like, guaranteeing one of the best nights' sleep I've had away from home. Every detail—from the quality linens to the excellent in-room amenities—showed a dedication to guest satisfaction. ​ Exceptional Facilities ​The on-site leisure center is a massive bonus. Having access to a full-sized swimming pool, gym, and spa facilities is a wonderful luxury, especially after a long day of exploring or working. It truly elevates the Camden Court from a hotel to a comprehensive wellness escape. ​ Dining That Impresses ​Breakfast was a particular delight! The selection was vast, fresh, and high-quality, catering to every taste. The staff in the restaurant were attentive and friendly, made any adjustments to time i had requested with open arms and welcoming smile of genuine human kindness and ensuring a great start to the day. If you choose to dine here, im sorry to say but expect delicious food and efficient service. ​but i have to say that The Heart of the Hotel: The Staff ​What truly sets the Camden Court Hotel apart is its incredible team. The staff members are consistently warm, professional, and genuinely eager to help. Check-in and check-out were seamless, and any request was handled immediately and with a smile. Their friendly disposition makes you feel valued, not just as a guest, but as a welcomed visitor. ​In conclusion, the Camden Court Hotel delivers on every front. If you are looking for phenomenal value, luxury, and an atmosphere that feels both central and peaceful, look no further. I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough and eagerly anticipate my next stay! They even have reusable hand towels in the bathrooms of exceptional cleanliness! Talk about an economic friendly modern stylish friendly welcoming hotel that has it all!! No thats just the Camden Court Hotel

07/12/2025: Sadly not the best stay, double bed made of two singles but the joint was awful so no point. The pool is nothing like the pictures with only 3 beds so you can’t relax there. If you get a room near the front you’ll be awake all night with traffic and people about. Better choices out there

04/10/2026: A firm favorite on the shrinking Dublin gay scene It's a late night bar which is also rare. Get a good seat and watch the world go by. It's dog friendly too . It's transformed during the day to a relaxed front room at home .

29/09/2026: This is a beautiful bar however I had an unnecessarily negative experience with a female bartender when I ordered a Guinness Zero and a regular Guinness and was told they would bring the drink over to the table. I explained that I had just come from another bar and my friend had mixed up our order in the walk from the bar so I felt a bit anxious regarding the non-alcoholic drink and said I would wait to get that from her into my hand so there was no uncertainty. Unfortunately her attitude changed, she became irritated and became huffy, puffy and eye-rolley at my request (which did not put her out in any way whatsoever). Maybe as a bar you might consider putting the non-alcoholic beverages in Zero glasses, rather than in the same Guinness glasses so there is no confusion? It is rather important. Aside from that, a beautiful bar with a lovely atmosphere.

22/10/2026: Extremely rude and unprofessional staff – left waiting then lied about closing time We arrived at this KFC 20 minutes before closing. We pulled up to the drive-thru order speaker and no one answered. We waited there for a full 10 minutes with no response we assumed they were busy. Eventually we drove up to the next window thinking the speaker might be broken. We could clearly see the staff inside laughing and trying to hide. When we asked if we could place our order there, the woman at the window was snickering and told us they were closed. This was still 10 minutes before their actual closing time. They had left us sitting at the speaker for 10 minutes knowing full well we were there, then lied and claimed they were already closed. Completely unacceptable behaviour. Rude, unprofessional, and deliberately misleading customers. We will not be returning and will be taking our business elsewhere. Management needs to address this kind of staff attitude urgently.

27/09/2026: the food was very tasty,the staff was friendly and the store environment was pleasant

08/09/2026: I would like to say a very special thank you to the Manager and Staff at The Laurels in Perrystown. On Sunday, I came in to the Laurels after badly scalding my hand and was quite distressed. From the moment I arrived, the Manager, unfortunately, I don't know his name and staff were absolutely wonderful. They immediately came to my assistance and treated me with such genuine kindness, care and concern. At a moment when I really needed help, they went above and beyond for me. It says so much about the people who work at The Laurels that they didn't hesitate to step in and take care and assist me. I am incredibly grateful to everyone who helped me that day. Your kindness meant more than you probably realise, and I won't forget it. A wonderful team and a wonderful local pub. Thank you all so very much.

07/09/2026: First time here. Popped in at lunchtime just for a sandwich and coffee. Staff extremely friendly and give a great welcome. The food and coffee were excellent. Saw a customer getting the roast beef and veg and it was huge. I heard tell his colleague that it was delicious and very tender. A bit of a smell in the gents. However, will add this establishments to my list of places to revisit.

17/10/2026: Grand place for a social event, atmosphere isn’t exactly incredible but does the job

17/10/2026: A Wonderful Pub with a Great Atmosphere I had a really lovely experience at this pub! The atmosphere is very welcoming and enjoyable, making it a great place to relax, have a drink, and enjoy some good food. Even though the pub was completely packed when I visited, the service was excellent from start to finish. The staff were friendly, attentive, and professional, and they managed to maintain a high standard of service despite how busy the place was. The food was delicious, with great flavours and a quality that made the experience even better. Another thing worth mentioning is the cleanliness of the facilities. The bathrooms were clean and well-maintained, which shows that the pub pays attention to the details and cares about its customers’ comfort. Overall, this pub offers a fantastic combination of a pleasant atmosphere, delicious food, excellent customer service, and good cleanliness. It’s definitely the kind of place you would want to visit again, whether you’re meeting friends, enjoying a casual meal, or simply looking for a great pub experience. Highly recommended! I’ll definitely be happy to come back again.

11/07/2026: Overall, based on our children’s feedback, we felt that this summer camp was not engaging enough for a five-day program. The same games and activities were repeated throughout the week, and according to our kids, they lost interest after the second day. In our opinion, the activities would be more suitable as a one-day camp rather than a five-day program. Considering the duration and cost, we didn’t feel it offered good value for money. Additionally, it would have been nice if some snacks had been provided by the organisers. While the staff were friendly and the concept is good, we believe there is room for improvement by introducing more variety in the daily activities to keep children engaged throughout the week. Overall, I would rate this five-day summer camp 5 out of 10.

10/07/2026: Absolutely great summer camp my son done week 1 up in Astro Park santry. All the coaches were great & had great patience with the kids. Will definitely do again
