The best restaurants in Dublin

13/09/2026: OMG - Such a good surprise ! Passed by late in the night ( yes they close very late ) and decided to stop , I’ve seen the place before and I’m glad I tried and I’ll definitely come back . Good quality and delicious! Was served by a very kindy girl . Good price too !

11/09/2026: Delicious ice cream!! They are so friendly

20/09/2026: Fabulous place!! Ordered the pulled pork burger and it did not disappoint, as soon as you pick it up it’s oozing from every side with sauce and pork. Chicken wings portion is enough to feed the whole table and the is swimming in sauce which is a wonderful addition. The only downside was the chicken nachos which came out a bit underwhelming with only sauce and chicken on the top layer. Staff were very efficient, mannerly and plenty of them. Wonderful atmosphere, kids room is such a good idea, keeps all the little chaos away from the dinner table haha 진짜 맛있어요

17/09/2026: We are really disappointed with the refurbished play area. Castle is gone, and an enormous tv installed on the wall. The advantage of this place was the play area so the kids could PLAY. Not watch tv. Or you may as well take a tablet to any restaurant.

27/09/2026: Delicious authentic Chinese food. One of the best in Dublin

15/08/2026: Sweet suffering jesus. Do not go here. Genuinely the worst meal of my life. Duck rolls were cold in the middle, stone cold but I gave them a pass hoping the main course would be better. Turned out it was significantly worse. Fatty beef rolled in dried chilli. Blew the mouth off me. Asked if they could just wipe the dried chilli off. Somehow it came back worse. Then the ultimate annoyance, when we tried to leave having tipped (bizarrely Irish), the door handle had broken and needed a staff member to reattach in order to let customers leave. Absolutely awful.

10/08/2026: Hands down Best kebabs in town👏

23/07/2026: I love whole food, but full house pizza and these new dirty birds are amazing

26/09/2026: The food was authentic, similar to what you'd find on holiday! The service was very friendly.

21/09/2026: The food was good, but the way we were treated towards the end really ruined the experience!!! Staff came over four or five times “you finished?” asking if we were finished and trying to clear the table while we were still eating. At no point did anyone tell us there was a time limit. Then, they brought us the bill and said they needed the table for other customers. After we paid, a member of staff came over and told us we needed to finish up because we had been there for more than 1 hour and 45 minutes. This was literally the first time we had heard anything about a time limit in my whole life!!!!!!! I completely understand that restaurants get busy and need to turn tables. If we’dbeen told when we arrived that we had the table for 1h45, that would have been absolutely fine. But you can’t expect customers to follow a time limit they’ve never been told about. When I pointed this out, I was told, “I don’t need to tell you. When you come into town, this is normal.” I mean ???? What? That response was honestly what bothered me the most….! I’ve eaten at plenty of restaurants in Dublin and I’ve never assumed there was an unspoken 1h45 rule. If you have a time limit, just tell your customers when they sit down!!!! We would have happily respected it!!!!!! Instead, we were repeatedly rushed and then made to feel like we’d done something wrong for breaking a rule we didn’t even know existed. Really disappointing way to end what had otherwise been a nice meal.

16/08/2026: A great local with potential. Sports on TV, music on the weekends, bar staff are excellent and there's always a good atmosphere. Could do with a lick of paint inside and out all the same. Locals are all friendly however some treat it as their living room and will practically sit on you if you're in "their" usual perch.

25/06/2026: First pint of Guinness in nine months. Aaaahhhhhh tastes as good as it looks. Great local 😎

20/08/2026: Special thanks to the staff for my delivery

29/07/2026: lovely place but small very friendly

12/09/2026: Very good people and customers seavers

30/08/2026: Always get orders here . I had my flower shop across from Giulio's the family are all amazing The food is tops ❣️

25/05/2026: Nice coffee served by a friendly guy. I recommend.

13/05/2026: Lovely place. I go there every day. Really nice guy. Recommend it if you want to have a little seat and enjoy hot coffee by the side of river Liffey.

20/09/2026: Very clean. Standard pre made sandwiches/wraps etc but still nice. Lovely coffee. Friendly staff. Good for a cuppa and chat!

21/04/2026: Perfect spot for a little outdoor piddle party, wall is at a perfect angle, caught some lady glancing at me though, felt a little rude!

06/10/2026: The stuff down stairs it’s a bit abusers. Depending of how you look (drunk or not) they abuse of the price, selling you drinks of €4 in €10 And if you catch them, they will acc like “it was a mistake” but it’s just a way to get tips without your concert.

04/10/2026: The waitress Anet was perfect and very attentive! Great service, atmosphere, and food!

29/09/2026: Great Music ,Vinny Ryan playing .bar staff very pleasant .nice crowd ,seemed older crowd so the craic was good .bus stop & car park near by

21/09/2026: Shocking staff behaviour. Older bar man with goatee gleefully shouting out racist "jokes". The younger one with the goatee looks like Peter Dinklage cosplaying as Tony Stark. Was extremely rude despite the average man being able to knock him in the ground like a fence post. Go to Dolly's or Brady's.

28/09/2026: Ordered an espresso martini and a margarita at the bar and the bartender rolled his eyes at us. We had to keep our eyes on him to make sure he didn’t spit in our drink. Customer suggestion: If cocktails take too much effort for your establishment then perhaps you should consider taking it off the menu.

19/09/2026: Waited at the bar as the bartender talked people at the bar and continued to do glasses. He then served someone who arrived at the bar after me a pint of Heineken. He told me to wait a moment and continued to do glasses as he told me to continue to wait to order as he put glasses back from the dishwasher. He then left the bar empty with myself and another waiting to order. When he came back he ignored us and continued chatting with the initial group at the bar gathering more glasses to to place back on the bar. On a Friday night at 9 o'clock to not be ready to take orders in a bar is awful to be frank. We waited 5 minutes with no one ordering for no service whatsoever. I don't know what the management is like in this bar to allow this service. It is non existent and as far from what an Irish bar experience should be anywhere in the world never mind on the corner of the capital in temple bar. You are shaming Irish hospitality and an entire industry that the area relys on with this behavior.

16/06/2026: The old lady that works there (I think is the manager) is very rude to everyone even the customers and every time she makes my coffee is cold.

03/06/2026: I've been working on and off across the road for the past 2.5 years and Cafe Sol always delivers, thanks again!

12/09/2026: Atmosphere inside is nice and service is quick but as I was standing outside an older man who looked like a bouncer/security guard shoved me out of the way. Did not attempt to apologize or anything. Absolutely unacceptable behavior.

03/09/2026: Shocking Guinness. Bar staff obviously havent a clue.
