The best restaurants in Dublin

04/07/2026: The only coffee shop ill go to all the girls are great

01/07/2026: Shoutout to the barista who served us today Juliet(?) She went above and beyond to help us and was so incredibly quick explaining all the sandwiches Amazing coffee and even better service.

28/06/2026: Absolutely terrible food, head waitress extremely aggressive, would not eat here ever again, shame

24/05/2026: The ribeye steak on the stone was one of the nicest I have ever ate.

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

28/07/2026: Best place in Ranelagh for breakfast, brunch or lunch! Lovely friendly service, delicious food, great vegetarian option! Would highly, highly recommend.

28/06/2026: Great sandwiches, we tried the coronation chicken sandwich and the acai bowl. Lovely staff.

23/06/2026: This morning, I went to Costa to grab an iced mango matcha and cookies for my child. I told the barista which cookies I wanted, but she gave me a strange look, as if she didn't understand what I was saying. I showed her, and she gave them to me. It was my first time trying an iced mango matcha from Costa, and it was undrinkable. It tasted like powder. It was terrible, and I threw it in the bin.

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!

27/04/2026: We’ve had fried rice, biryani, gobi 65, gobi Manchuria , samosa chat. Delicious food. Recommend this place

27/04/2026: Food was burnt and unenjoyable when we went.

10/07/2026: Proper Dublin boozer. Immaculate pints and a Proper pub feeling. It has rejected trendy fads and is a place for a pint and newspaper or some drinking in memorial of a friend who has passed.

16/06/2026: €7.50 for a pint. The guy wanted the money the second he handed me the beer. Relax, mate, let me at least find out if I like it first

31/08/2026: Everyone there was awesome including Amber and Luke!

18/05/2026: I was there yesterday to celebrate my friend’s birthday. I ordered a burrata as a starter but received mozzarella instead. I pointed it out and was told that the chef had guaranteed it was burrata. Very disappointing. I know what burrata is, and I wouldn’t have ordered it if I had known it was just mozzarella — essentially, I paid for burrata but received mozzarella. After the starter, our main course took a very long time to arrive. To make things worse, the “Classic Club” sandwich — which was what most people at our table actually wanted — had already sold out because of the party taking place in the garden. Also, my friend had reserved the garden, but it was double-booked and we were seated inside instead. That was fine, as the weather wasn’t great anyway. However, the ambient sound stopped working and none of the staff were able to fix it. Other than these issues, the food was good.

28/08/2026: What a great night and a great venue. Easy to get to....easy to get home from. Knockout The wild boyz fantastic 80s night 💕🎶💕🎶

18/05/2026: Good music, good place, good drinks. The only problem we had was with the blond staff member you encounter when they check your entry at the door (once you're already inside). Around 1 a.m., we left the club for a while, and then, when we were about to go back in, this guy started yelling at us because we'd gone into the wrong queue, and he forced us to queue with the people who hadn't yet entered. When we finally got inside, he complained that we had entered through a staff-only entrance (which wasn't marked at any point), he yelled at us again and made us queue all over again. Everything else was fine; I recommend the place, had a good time, but be careful with some of the staff.

28/07/2026: Top tier food, had a very good breakfast sandwich, coffee and cake

09/02/2026: Excellent service , seating area and a really tasty full Irish for €13.50. Wasn’t mad on the white pudding , but everything else was perfect . Highly recommended.

22/08/2026: Very disappointing experience, mainly because of the service. I asked for the smoked salmon plate without capers or pickles and was told, quite condescendingly, that this wasn’t possible because they were “in the cream.” When the plate arrived, they were clearly just sprinkled on top. When I politely pointed this out while paying, the waitress was again dismissive and condescending rather than simply acknowledging the mistake. The ham and cheese toastie was also cold and bland. Overall, poor food made much worse by unnecessarily rude and condescending service.

18/08/2026: There are 2 entrances to this cafe, which can make life difficult for the staff. We came in through the museum entrance and were immediately shown to a table and given menus. However, we then had around a 10 minute wait for the waiter to come back to take our order. The food arrived fairly quickly and was delicious. The cafe could do with more staff as there were only 3 on duty when we were there. One looking after the coffee machine, another girl and a man, who appeared to be the manager, trying to look after the customers, take orders, serve, meet n greet and take payment. It took another 6 minutes to pay the bill as the staff were busy doing other things. By the time we left, there was a queue of patrons waiting to be shown to a table, whilst there were a number of empty tables available. There is also a very nice courtyard which must have been very busy during the recent hot weather. We will be back.

05/08/2026: Absolutely beautiful had a sandwich this morning it was beautiful service top notch well done first time here will not be my last

22/07/2026: My first time there the staff were extremely accommodating and helpful, the food is lovely. 10/10 spot for your lunch.

04/07/2026: Very lovely staff and amazing coffee

16/04/2026: Lovely coffee and cakes. Highly recommended.

18/08/2026: Got a chicken salad box and a coronation chicken sandwich for lunch €26:45. The salad box was basically lettuce leaves and some chicken. Pretty tasteless and didn’t taste of anything good at all. The chicken sandwich was awful. It fell apart and had the barest minimum of ingredients. Definitely won’t be going back again.

15/08/2026: Wonderful produce and service ..... and dressing up in your finery is totally optional

08/07/2026: Reasonably priced, super delicious ice cream and milkshakes. Staff are always super friendly and easy going. Solid 5 out of 5

20/06/2026: Went there today and got a gelato. White chocolate and cookie dough, it was very good!
