The best restaurants in Dublin

22/02/2026: I love the Malaysian vegetarian tofu curry here, flavours are delicious but I don’t find the sushi options like the rolls and maki dishes taste super fresh. A little disappointing on the sushi front but love the curry !

05/02/2026: We purposely drive here to get Sushi because the meals are fresh and delicious. One of the best Sushi we have had to date.

15/10/2025: Today I ordered a flat white (I had my own cup) and 2 chocolate covered dates and asked to pay 7.80 EUR, did not give attention and paid. Flat white costs 4.20 (with your own cup 4.00), each date costs 1.50. I then saw there is a coffee and cake afternoon deal (2pm-4pm) for 5 EUR. I kindly asked barista if dates were not included in the deal. She said they are included. It did not make sense and asked if she can explain me the breakdown of my bill: she said the cake deal price has gone up to 6.50 EUR today and one of the dates was included in the deal on my bill. I was negatively surprised with the price increase but did not comment on it. I then said but the dates are cheaper outside of the deal and I dont get why we are including one of them as a part of deal if it does not make total lower. If we take all products individually the total comes to 7 EUR, I dont get why I should pay more because they applied the deal where they should not. Barista kindly said she cannot change the rules. To be fair I am not blaming the barista as she was kind and she even offered some pastries later on to customers (including me) as everyone asked about price increase on afternoon deal. The whole thing just does not make sense.

09/10/2025: Great coffee and a nice place to sit outside and people watch!

29/11/2025: What a tremendous tavern serving stouts and perfect porters. If Dublin is a lady, Grace's is the corsage on her wrist!

02/11/2025: Nice staff and service but a trad group essentially displaced us by slowly moving into our seats, shoving our belongings down and eventually telling us to move so we had to leave despite being customers for a couple of hours. Beware of this if you’re a younger person, it felt territorial

24/03/2026: We ordered spicy pork that was brought in a pan that needed to cook on a small stove. The meat was raw and surrounded bij onions and leak and covered in a very large amount of Korean spicy red paste (Gochujang). I’m a big fan of this condiment but it was so much that after cooking the meal it tasted as a box of Gochujang with some meat and veggies in it. It was bad. And it costed €40. When I complained to the staff he reacted that he’ll tell the cook. That’s it. The other dishes were ok-ish. (I have lived in Korea, so have an idea what good food should taste like). Not recommended.

22/03/2026: The Chinese staff are a bit abrupt

08/12/2025: Anju made us the best gingerbread coffee at Nespresso in Dublin! Love coming here to get Nespresso!

08/12/2025: I had the gingerbread espresso and it was fabulous! Anju took really good care of us. I will definitely return!

23/02/2026: Ordered for pick up and arrived 20 minutes early. The food was already bagged which meant it was all cold already and it was freezing by the time I got home. But the staff were lovely

22/01/2026: Got the chicken biryani delivered. It was cold and very overpowered flavour of star aniseed. The chicken was good quality though.

19/07/2025: As we are creatures of habit, we strolled in to Starbucks for a coffee and a blueberry muffin. The service was excellent, very polite. Food and coffee were great. Great spot to sit and relax when out and about.

21/05/2025: 2 beautiful Bernese enjoying Starbucks

29/11/2025: A retro roadhouse feel restaurant. The food was tasty and I'll come back to try some other dishes.

27/11/2025: Always a varying experience here. Sometimes staff are amazing, next time they are quite rude. They never come over to ask about desserts and are very slow to clear the table. One thing that remains consistent is the food which I suppose is the most important part.

08/09/2025: The café is well-furnished, but lacks a pleasant ambiance. You're partly seated in the building's through traffic area.

04/09/2025: Great service in a cosy environment

07/12/2025: Typical atmosphere, savory breakfast, excellent price! Highly recommended.

11/11/2025: When you're in need of a great breakfast this is the spot. 2 lovely ladies turning out delicious food at a tenner a head. What's not to like! Highly recommended

25/10/2025: Ciao ragazzi, Brilliant food where you get good value for money. Good to start your night in temple bar. Worth a visit! Au mol prelä Piacere!

24/10/2025: Forgot one of our orders.complete indifference shown.nice food that arrived.

14/11/2025: Breakfast was great but £7.50 on the bill for 2 tea's is a bit 2 much and extras £4 for 2 slices of toast!

09/11/2025: The best cafe in Dun Laoghaire and the fact that it is always busy is testament to this. Very good coffee and a wide selection of breakfast/brunch/lunch dishes to suit all diets.

30/10/2025: I ordered the biscoff brownie and biscoff cookie sandwhich, the brownie tasted stale like it had been sitting out for a good while, the cookie sandwich was nice but didnt taste like biscoff at all, very little biscoff inside cookie, mostly just this cream filling.

06/10/2025: We bought a cake for my sons first birthday and I couldn’t of been happier how it turned out the size of the cake the price of the cake and how nice it was could not argue about anything we will defiantly be ordering here again

19/01/2026: I've ordered peppercorn chicken for €15, the chicken was large, two breasts, but it was extremely dry, I couldn't finish it. The rest is good, but the chicken is a disappointment

17/01/2026: the food is always great but whether the servers will be nice to you is always a 50/50

09/12/2025: Wonderful! My phone battery was dead and they helped me, they saved me actually, because it's difficult for a Brazilian without a cell phone here at the beginning. Thank you so much. The chicken and cheese sandwich was delicious ❤️

10/11/2025: Insomnia is one of Ireland’s most recognisable coffee chains, and for good reason. Whether you’re in Dublin, Cork, or Galway, you’ll likely find one nearby serving consistently good coffee and a friendly atmosphere. Their espresso-based drinks—especially flat whites and cappuccinos—are smooth, rich, and well-balanced, often matching or surpassing what you’d get from smaller independents. The hot chocolate and seasonal drinks (like the winter spiced latte) are a treat, especially on chilly Irish days.
