The best restaurants in Dublin

27/09/2026: Really busy but a great pitstop for hot choc

09/09/2026: I really enjoy Butler’s Chocolate Cafe. I use their app regularly, and every 10th coffee is free, which is a great bonus. My favorite touch is that you get a free chocolate with every coffee. Their mocha is excellent, rich and satisfying. They also offer a nice variety of chocolates for gifting. It’s become one of my go to spots.

12/08/2026: Cant complain good food quiet place in the morning come see by yourself

02/08/2026: the best scrambled eggs ever ,everything served piping hot definitely worth a visit

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.

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.

29/07/2026: Good Chinese , delivery was fast and food very hot . Satay chicken skewers very nice , and salt and chili chicken balls were also good . Asked for extra veg but got barely any but it was still good . Ordered Szechuan beef but I got some sort of chicken dish instead but it was still good anyways .

21/07/2026: Reasonably priced Chinese food only 10 minutes wait until ready

15/09/2026: The perfect example of modern multiculturalism. Staff who don't speak the same language all arguing over an issue that they can't understand. Half cold half hot sandwiches. Long waits without queues. Love it, let's have more

14/09/2026: Thought my vanilla latte was great

28/08/2026: the front-of-house service was genuinely poor

05/08/2026: It was my first time visiting this restaurant today, and I had such a lovely experience. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, the staff were incredibly polite and welcoming, and the aubergine dish was absolutely gorgeous – one of the best I've had! I arrived right when they opened, and in many places, when you're the first or only customer, the staff can seem a bit distant. Here, it was the complete opposite. They made me feel genuinely welcome from the moment I walked in.

27/09/2026: Got the dirty bird goujons and they were unedible 3 of us left them. Lovely taste but because delivery was so long and tgey put the sauce on them they were like rubber. Wont be ordering again

11/09/2026: I usually don’t bother leaving feedback but I was so disappointed with the food I got. I’ve just moved back to Dublin and was really looking forward to getting my chipper as I used to live in Leopardstown before Covid and always ordered Romayos back in the day. The chips were pretty soggy and half cold. The pizza was nearly cold and oily on the bottom. And I ordered a deluxe kabab but they gave me a southern diced chicken one. Very disappointing overall and I won’t be back ever!!

30/08/2026: Had beers and meals tonight great service food was great,

16/08/2026: The drinks are excellent, but the burger was very small compared to the sandwich and also badly cooked, the piadina was just salad and also gone bad, disappointing.

30/09/2026: Very nice environment and fine food excellent service

26/09/2026: Been going here for decades. Always good. But the calazoni holdover I had was too bread like and not crispy. The other food was fine.

09/07/2026: The food was delicious, the people were so kind and helpful, and the atmosphere was amazing. I would definitely recommend coming here!

30/06/2026: Food was amazing! Got the carrot cake and ceaser salad and both were fresh and flavorful.

22/08/2026: Fabulous place to eat and drink. Great staff

14/08/2026: Sunday carvery is king. Nice pints. Huge pub. Good for a party.

16/09/2026: Had a nice lunch in here a few times now. Friendly staff and quick service

10/09/2026: Very friendly and welcoming. The girl front of house (i think her name is nicola) absolutley amazing with all the customers so funny and so helpful. Everyone that left had a big smile on their face.

05/10/2026: Love this restaurant/cafe. The food is fab, staff are lovely and it has such a warm atmosphere.

30/09/2026: The food is always good and the staff are so frendly

20/11/2025: I absolutely loved Crowbar during my trip to Dublin. The atmosphere inside was welcoming and the bartenders were friendly. The prices are reasonable. I didn't go to the nightclub section of the bar, but according to a friend, it's pretty good. I recommend it!

02/11/2025: Accidentally spilled my pint after 30 seconds of buying it. Explained the bartender that it was a mistake and asked if maybe she could replace it. Instead she nastly said “you have to pay again, obviously” in a mean manner. Like I understand that but that was not nice to respond in such demeanour, especially the “obviously” part. Other bars would have replaced it for free.
