The best restaurants in Dublin

09/12/2025: Great atmosphere, lovely staff.

16/11/2025: I was here today I was on the function room

20/10/2025: Glad to see it open again after a very quick patch up (paint on outdoor tables still sticky as they didn't seal it) and not much changed inside, but food not up to the mark (tasteless salad, which was kindly replaced and Cuban sandwich in name only). Would definitely go back for a pint outside, but still feels outdated on the inside. Much better friendly service than under last owner. Updated review (October 25): Thanks for your response below! We went back and new menu is great. Best lobster roll I ever had!

18/10/2025: I cannot fault the Queens bar. It's lovely

20/05/2025: Second time having my son’s birthday here, unfortunately I won’t be booking again. The man at reception was so lovely and helpful! But after that it went down hill, the party “host” was on his phone leaning against the wall while kids played bubble football for the full 45 mins. The only time he lifted his head off his phone was to help a child that called him to help with the bubble. I went back into the man In reception and asked was the hosting to do any games with the kids, after this he went out to talk to him . After that the “host” took all the lads to the party room, came back with food and then left. The staff in the bar and the man in reception were so lovely and helpful, but the party “host” had no interest to be there, let alone the party host. Please give the kids that are there for a party, your time and attention.

28/04/2025: Excellent service and a very friendly atmosphere staff are second to none always a pleasure to be there.

28/11/2025: great little neighbourhood shop, lovely selection of wine and food.

03/09/2025: Great place for a coffee and pastry (which they get from Bread 41-good tip to miss the line there is come here). Some benches out front to enjoy on. Fresh bread, flowers and a large wine selection available. Good cheese, meats, pasta, and all sorts of spices and sauces available. Highly recommend as a local grocer.

18/04/2026: Absolutely loved my time at The Red Stables Market! The atmosphere is incredible, and the food lived up to the hype. The service was top-notch—everyone was so welcoming. It’s a fantastic spot for a weekend outing, and at €10-20 per person, it’s great value for the quality. Highly recommend!

28/03/2026: With the sunny and spectacular day we've had, it's been fabulous to be able to spend the day there, full of families, dogs and people enjoying a picnic on the grass, a luxury within everyone's reach.

25/11/2025: It's me Mondays stop. I stop for a couple of pints and peanuts 💪 my way to celebrate and watch football

18/08/2025: They don't do food, but if your having a party they allow food to be delivered. Staff are very friendly and lovely pints. The establishment has a good friendly atmosphere, we come here quiet a lot.

07/06/2026: Had such a great evening there! The three of us all went for a set menu that was more than generous and left us stuffed, for a very reasonable price. Every dish was special and tasty, especially the starters, and also the pizzas and desserts. Nice service and a great atmosphere it's an instant favourite in Blackrock now. Some people complaining about tap water being charged for, but actually, you do get filtered (much better tasting and I'd say, healthier) water, also sparkling, if you like, for 2 euros a person, and as much as you want. I drink quite a lot of water so I think this is a reasonable enough deal.

25/05/2026: Great spot! Really tasty food with lovely staff. Also very well priced.

06/06/2026: Amazing food, great prices and the staff are lovely

27/05/2026: This a new favourite coffee shop, I’m not a coffee drinker but this place was quiet and beautiful and we had the place to our self’s till closing

20/05/2026: Very bad, waiting to use the toilet 🚽, toilet locked, no sign of out of order, after 10 minutes of waiting, knocking on the door no sign of anyone there, a staff told me first that it was open and then when I said it was locked and he said oh it's in very bad condition so make up whatever that means, I don't know!

12/04/2026: Busy coffee house in Malahide Industrial Park. Slow service and quality of cakes quite low for the price paid. Coffee is of reasonable standard.

25/05/2025: No matter how I think about it, the taste is not worthy of the price.

16/05/2025: Incredible burger, staff and atmosphere.

21/04/2026: Very tasty, nicely presented take away food.

01/01/2026: Food was tasty but very pricey for takeaway. There are less expensive places with equal quality in the area.2 mains with sides and 2 starters was almost €60.

20/10/2025: Had the best chicken wings in town. The shrimp pasta wasn’t anything special, but it was okay

13/10/2025: The wings here are honestly some of the best I’ve ever had

26/11/2025: Honestly, I'm baffled. 5/5? The lady who took our order was pleasant but that is the ony positive I can give. Cutlery was dirty, food burnt and/cold, and sending it back didn't improve it any. The coffee was below par. There was no apology, no offer of something else. First and last visit.

21/10/2025: Really bad cheese-breads. Nothing like the original. Nice staff.

15/12/2025: Old style family pub in suburbs of Dundrum. The menu had all you needed, very good value and quality was excellent. Give it a go if you are near by, good alternative.

11/12/2025: Balinteer men's shed Christmas party went with a bang .FOOD was excellent and music top class.A great night was had by all .Definitely recommend it for a gathering. Thanks to Tomas for everything Owen

04/05/2026: Great little lounge 👌 a very nice smoking 🚬 area

09/04/2026: portions are great not like other chipers
