The best restaurants in Dublin

01/01/2026: The staff was very polite especially the girl who made reservation for us. Loved the mango lassi. Butter chicken was not as good and the quantity was meagre. Sev puri felt dry. Overall ambience is fine but confined but it works.

31/12/2025: Wonderful food, vegetarian is great. So tasty and hearty. The cheese dosa was amazing as well as the chana masala and paneer were delicious. Great service from Namrata. Fully recommend.

29/12/2025: I come here regularly and love the menu and variety but I’ve ordered soup on 3 different occasions and its extremely over salted!! Also music is way too loud.

29/10/2025: Great food with friendly service.

05/03/2026: Delicious and quickly prepared burgers in the center of Dublin. The price is a bit high, but they taste great! You have to go into a pub and down some stairs to reach the burger joint.

01/03/2026: Very good! Both the fries and the burger.

18/02/2026: Good food and very friendly staff. Kathy

24/01/2026: Nice food, little veg (even though explicitly stated on the menu). The chips could have been fried slightly longer. Portion size is decent, but men will probably need to order a side with it. Atmosphere is good, sports were visible from all booths. Service was friendly. Good traditional pub.

30/08/2025: Great beers, horse racing on TV and good locals, beautiful and quaint

14/08/2025: Nice and old school pub with stale air atmosphere and super friendly locals. A pint is 6.70 that is on par to the nearby pubs

14/03/2026: We were lucky to get a table for 3 on a busy Sat night. The burgers were tasty & nicely presented. The vegetarian penne was delicious with lots of chunky veg. Service was professional and friendly. We'll be back.

27/02/2026: Lovely again. Joshua really looked after our table. Gentleman.

14/01/2026: Very welcoming place, highly recommended

02/12/2025: Vibrant food market with a welcoming, communal atmosphere. It’s lively yet not chaotic, allowing visitors to explore comfortably. The variety of food stalls, casual seating and upbeat energy make it a perfect spot for quick bites or a relaxed afternoon of tasting and wandering.

27/01/2026: Picked up some bao buns and bubble team while I was walking by. The honeydew bubble tea was DELICIOUS - absolute 10/10. The bao buns were good and we got a great deal on them. Perfect for a little pick me up and then we had some leftovers we were able to have later that night! Definitely worth a visit if you're looking for some comfort food in the Temple Bar area.

07/01/2026: I ordered the buns and was incredible amazing!!! And the girl there is really kind

09/11/2025: Good Irish pub Good local beers Live sports Authentic atmosphere Food available

26/10/2025: I’m giving 5 stars — the wings were delicious, and the service was excellent. We were also served by a wonderful woman named Tamara. She definitely deserves 5 stars!

07/12/2025: Worst food ive had in Dublin and im a Dub. The steak in the beef and Guinness stew was totally inedible lumps of rubber and this cost €20, thats unacceptable really. The gujons consisted of 4 pieces of hard chicken and few dry chips. It was very disappointing because we were enjoying the pub until then. I told the server and he just said "sorry about that." We left hungry broke and rather angry

05/12/2025: Great service, great pints but the Steak & Guinness Pie was very disapointing. Beef so tough

04/08/2025: I have so many fond memories of The Clarence. When I heard of the substantial renovations it was about to undergo, I decided to book a stay there at the end of July as a sort of 'goodbye' to the scene of so many good times. Though some of the rooms have been looking a bit worn of late, 303 was still in great condition. Check-in was easy, and the sets of double windows minimized noise from the quays. There is a real charm to the look and feel of the rooms - the well-built, practical cabinets, the subtle gold tiling accenting the bath. I fear most of it will be replaced by whatever happens to be trendy as the refit is undertaken, but hopefully some of what made the place special will survive. Most of all, it's a real loss to see the hotel staff scattered to the winds. I sadly didn't get his name, but I'd like to especially highlight the kindness and care of the staff member who was manning reception on August 4th. I nipped in with a last minute request, and he (and the colleague he found to assist me) could not have been more gracious, even as the hotel was being packed up and closed around him. So long to The Clarence. What a great run.

22/10/2025: We visited Olives Garden with our daughter and our dog. Lovely outdoor seating, family-friendly atmosphere, and a great selection of pastries. Perfect spot to relax and enjoy the view. Great coffees

13/10/2025: Great coffee and delicious cake! Very busy but that was due to the sunshine...

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

04/03/2026: He came running out the shop screaming at us to come back after I ate my food the food was nice to be fair but then he start saying that we didn’t pay full price and he made a mistake when I clearly paid full price for my food as the tills have presets and even if I didn’t it still wouldn’t be my fault as it was their mistake

16/02/2026: Just casually walking past the shop in santry coming back from omni when a worker bangs on the window telling us to come in, thinking we might get chips or something he tells us we were around the back of the shop at the gate we try to tell him we weren't there but still says we were and says he has are faces on camera at 4.30 but at that time we were kmowwhere near the shop. All this was around 7.30 now we did ask to see the footage but just tells us to go out I think by this point he knows he's in the wrong just not right to assume it was me and my friends when it wasn't. First time in the area in a while too.

04/09/2025: Good food and coffee 👍 never change 😁

22/07/2025: Jumped in here today. Coffee and veggie roll. Both delicious. Staff were so friendly. Recommend
