The best restaurants in Dublin

10/04/2026: Relaxing atmosphere with great menu selections and unique cocktails. Ate here after a long trip in to Dublin. This was a great place to unwind. The services was fantastic, friendly and nicely paced. The food was great.

20/03/2026: I had Irish Seafood Chowder while I was in Belfast. Right when I got to the Dublin, I had an intense craving for it! I think I like this version of chowder better than the good ole USA New England chowder. I was staying in the hotel this restaurant is located in. Great and convenient choice for me. The vibe/ambiance is quite swanky, while the dishes were reasonably priced. To end my night, I ordered a few light apps instead of a full entree - seafood chowder and burrata salad. Unfortunately, the food took quite a while to come out. My two dishes are considered "starters", so that made the wait even more antagonizing. Sadly, the chowder was not as good as the one I had in Belfast, but it was still tasty. Definitely not very thick, especially for a chowder. The burrata salad was yummy, especially the sun dried tomatoes. Nice light meal.

18/01/2026: Food was lovely and hot. There was a lot of variety on the menu. Very friendly service. Down side the place was freezing so we didn't stay for desert or coffee.

09/04/2026: Always great for gluten free, yummy and lovely staff on my visit

08/04/2026: The food was delicious but was disappointed that some of the sauces were out of stock

20/09/2025: Cute little cafe! Colourful relaxing decor. I had a delicious pumpkin spice latte! The cups are so pretty too!

19/09/2025: I went here totally by accident, I thought id give it a try as I saw they have gluten free options and pumpkin spice latte!!. The staff was so friendly,the service was outstanding and the decor was breathtaking. Nothing I have seen before. Its a small cozy hidden away cafe. May I also add they had a few options for gluten free, I got the brownie it was a bit dry but still good i enjoyed it either way (you can see the selection of gluten free options in the picture of the menu, the top shelf) The price is also not too bad

13/03/2026: Had late night -after bar- curry and loved that they were open late

23/02/2026: SUCH GOOD FOOD I CAN GOON TO IT 🤤🤤🤤🤤

23/03/2026: Food was pretty good. Tasted fresh and there was a good selection. The bagels as okay. The New York style bagel is too expensive for how it tastes but it’s filling and the eggs taste fresh

21/03/2026: Great breakfast option, delicious juices, I ordered a bagel with eggs and bacon which was delicious, the only thing I would change is to serve it on a plate, it would be better served that way.

26/03/2026: Another place that seems to want to redefine what a carbonara is. Pancetta instead of guanciale. Parmesan instead of pecorino. Cream for no reason whatsoever. If I order a gin + tonic do you make it with vodka? Just call it something else guys. It's not carbonara.

10/03/2026: I have been a frequent customer here and at home over the last 10 years. The owner has allways been a gentleman and customer focused. However, the restaurant has had a manageress for a while and she really has no manners or appreciation for her customers, her poor attitude naturally rubs off the other floor staff, as I like many others I have noticed the drop in the good standards. My most recent experience and last straw for me was when I ordered a delivery, after waiting for 1.5hrs and no sign off the food, I phoned and cancelled my order. I spoke with the manageress. Well, I was spoken to like a child because I cancelled my order! The manageress really need to learn manners and show some respect for your customers whether they are long established or not. Moreover, when you don't deliver in the proposed time, you do not blame the customer for cancelling food that is 45mins late! More IMPORTANTLY, you don't charge the customer for a cancelled order!!! I don't believe the above would have happened had the owner been involved, but again, he was allways customer focused which is paramount to business success in the service industry.

13/04/2026: Went for breakfast recently. The service was appalling and bad mannered and the food was very disappointing, We will not be back

28/03/2026: It's a great place. We were here for the first time, but I really liked it. It was a March visit, so it wasn't very warm, but we sat in a sort of gazebo. It was nice because it was heated. The service was friendly and very fast. We were all impressed. The dishes came and went as if they were just waiting to be served, which was a plus. The food itself was very good. The shrimp appetizer was excellent, and the sirloin steak was prepared perfectly. A good beer made the dinner even more enjoyable.

19/04/2026: Generous portions, decent price

20/03/2026: Got a Too Good To Go order on 20/03. Even though it was 9:45pm at night the ingredients were lovely and fresh and I had a great portion and variety. To the girls working there that night, you made my absolute day!

14/04/2026: Smithfield IPA the best IPA ever , lovely olives too! I love the outdoor heaters! So nice 🙂 this is my favourite bar in Dublin

13/04/2026: Great cocktails, lovely staff, super dog friendly we love coming here on our dog & mum dates.

29/06/2025: Wollte zur "Happy Hour" ein paar kleine Austern verspeisen und hatte mich wirklich schon gefreut...setze mich hin und bestelle 6 Stück...nach 5min kommt der Wein, leider keine Austern dazu. Nach weiteren 15min höfliche Nachfrage, es dauert noch weil andere Bestellungen vor mir. Nach weiteren 20min immer noch keine Austern, auf Nachfrage "es würde nicht mehr lange dauern", Wein nachgeordert mit dem dezenten Hinweis, dass der wohl hoffentlich aufs Haus geht. Nach weiteren 15min (kein Witz) kamen dann endlich 6 schlecht geöffnete Austern, mein Wein war leer und es gab auch keinen Nachschlag. Beim Zahlen dann auch keine Happy Hour und auf dann eher verärgerte Nachfrage nach dem "Wein aufs Haus", insgesamt 38€ für 6 mickrige Austern und zwei zeitversetzte Weinchen und eine Stunde Zeitaufwand. Unglaublich und wirklich sehr enttäuschend, hat mir den Nachmittag ordentlich verdorben.

17/06/2025: Sehr leckere, frische Meeresfrüchte und Fisch. Alle Gerichte waren sehr lecker! Zuvorkommender Service. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder! 😊

09/04/2026: I first discovered their food a few months ago in Polski Shop where they were selling. Delicious pork. Used to get portions most days for 5€. Then they stopped and I had to go to their restaurant and they still gave me pork for the same price. Then they said I would need to buy the full main course for 18€. It's not worth the price. Also they offer no butter when they give you bread. A can of Red Bull costs over €4 too. Staff not friendly here. I won't be returning. Only wanted to have the pork.

12/03/2026: Always ask before how much it will cost, otherwise you will pay a lot (waiting to pay after the meal)!

09/03/2026: Really handy shop in a great central location. I've been in a few times and it's always been clean, well stocked, and easy to get around. For a city centre supermarket, the selection is actually very good, especially for fresh food and quick lunch options. Staff have been friendly whenever I needed help, and the whole place feels modern and well run. Definitely one of the better shops in the area

31/01/2026: The supermarket is very small, and I've always reached it on foot, a pleasant stroll. However, I've never done a "big" purchase there because the selection isn't very varied and the prices aren't among the lowest in the area. However, unlike other supermarkets, I found a large pack of Barry's Tea to take home as a souvenir here. The advantage is that I didn't have to wait in line at the checkout, and payment was very quick. Friendly staff at the entrance and exit of the store.

04/08/2025: Cleaver East has been my friend groups go to place for all of our birthdays for the past 7 years. The bottomless brunch is incredible, quick service, great cocktails and great food. Decestated that it's closing due to the hotel renovations but hopefully it opens back up and we can continue to go forever more!

03/08/2025: Our favourite restaurant in Dublin. So sad to it close. We eat again here on Sunday 3 august closing nite and had another amazing meal. Good luck to all your wonderful staff ,, it’s been a lovely 12 years of dining here. From max & Harry
