The best restaurants in Dublin

04/09/2026: I rented a bike here for three weeks and had a great experience! The service was incredibly warm and welcoming, and the whole process was smooth and easy. The bike was impeccable : reliable, comfortable, and clearly very well maintained. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to rent a bike in Ireland ☺️

15/08/2026: I recently entered this shop, heavily pregnant and asked the lady if it would be possible to please use the toilet quickly. The shop was completely empty and I was alone. I could see the bathroom directly in front of me, not in use. I told the lady I was pregnant and really needed to go. The lady told me to pick out something "cool" to buy from the shop and then I would be allowed to use the toilet. I honestly was shocked and appauled that another woman would turn away a pregnant woman. It's small acts of kindness that differentiate businesses and if the shop had customers or was busy, maybe I could have understood her reaction. I have told this to many people who have also been completely shocked and outraged.

13/03/2026: This place is an absolute jewel in Dublin! If you appreciate a genuinely well-crafted drink in a beautiful setting, this is the spot. The atmosphere is incredible. It has a gorgeous Art Deco vibe that makes you feel like you've just stepped into a glamorous 1930s jazz bar. The cocktails are professionally made with real care and top-tier ingredients. The menu is fantastic, but the welcoming staff are more than happy to go off-menu and mix up whatever you're in the mood for, always taking the time to happily answer any questions about the drinks. While the everyday food menu is a bit limited, it perfectly suits the style of the bar. I highly recommend the charcuterie board, as it offers a wonderful balance of high-quality Spanish and Italian cured meats and cheeses with surprisingly generous portion sizes. I also had dinner here for New Year's Eve and the experience was excellent. They put together a special menu for the night, and the food was absolutely delicious. The best part is the connection to the Stella Cinema, a truly classy and vintage theater. I recommend this place for grabbing drinks with friends before a screening or catching up after a movie. A brilliant, five-star experience all around!

21/02/2026: Have to say that the food here was a huge disappointment. The trio of bread, olives, and almonds was an actual joke - 5 small olives, bland stale nuts, and bread that I physically couldn't tear or cut. The only decent thing we had was the arancini. Service was also poor - there were about 6 staff there around the bar but only 1-2 people actually working. The manager seemed totally fine with the fact that most of them were just standing around sampling a cocktail. They took our order without writing it down, came back to confirm it again, and we were still served the wrong thing. Puzzling how they manage to take 20 mins to serve a glass of whiskey with only about 4 tables occupied.

09/08/2026: Went here the night of football All-Ireland. Supervisor changed channel on all TV's when Sunday Game came on because Mayo fans were too loud. Doubt that ever happened when Dublin won!! All GAA fans should stay away from here!!! KOH.

29/07/2026: Security didn’t allow some patrons to enter because they were the wrong “skin colour”, beyond appalling. When questioned, they said they didn’t need to provide any explanation. I left the pub and needless to say we don’t be going back.

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

25/05/2026: Great bar food from TAZA next door.

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.

30/08/2026: Incredible food and service. Thank you

29/08/2026: The best part was the bread....Most of the food was a bit salty. The portions were small but it was OK because no one wanted more anyway.

25/07/2026: Young boy I think his name was Justin, was very rude to me and my friends, would not recommend 1 star for service

17/05/2026: This has to be the most professionaly run bar I have been in a long time. I was there with family on a very busy day and the management and especially the floor staff guys were so patient and helpful to any wishes on the day. If you want to experience a bar of this caliber then go to the Wishing Well. You won't regret it 👋

19/08/2026: Go to place in town for casual bite! Have been going for last 13/12 years and still love it! And not just for the free ice cream! Staff are always friendly!

13/08/2026: This is a great restaurant for some grub

06/07/2026: Superb breakfast & excellent staff

16/04/2026: I visited Sima with a colleague and had a steak sandwich it was very tasty the service was quick efficient and the staff were courteous and very nice. I wont leave it as long next time Thank you

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

25/08/2026: Staff are very friendly and very professional atmosphere is so nice

16/08/2026: Full of smelly old people, Loam and overpriced pints.

22/08/2026: It is the place I go everytime for a lunch after/before a train journey. I recommend for solo travellers, a nice break after a train ride or a nice lunch before a train ride.

29/07/2026: Don’t really know where to start, first time in Dublin and being English first thing I though of was an Irish breakfast we’ve tried a few whilst we’ve been here, and the rest have been brilliant, see decent reviews on here and thought I’d give it a go. Food was rubbery everything was cold. Coffee wasn’t great. The only half decent thing on the plate was a lukewarm hash brown. On my next return to Dublin I will definitely avoid this place

12/05/2026: This is an amazing place to stay in Dublin. The hotel is spotless, the breakfast is excellent, and the staff are truly wonderful. We especially loved Silvia — she is hardworking, attentive, and made us feel very welcome throughout our stay.

01/05/2026: The hotel is lovely, I recommend it. The rooms are comfortable, and in the lobby you can have tea or a glass of water before going to sleep. It has a pleasant atmosphere and a good breakfast.

16/06/2026: Hotel was absolutely immaculate food was fantastic the rooms extremely clean and very tidy the service in the restaurant and the bar was fantastic a special thanks to Riva who looked after us with kindness a total Gentleman hotel was only a short walking distance to the train station I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone and definitely will be back thankyou to all the staff who where extremely helpful and kind I was made very welcome

06/07/2026: Great atmosphere bar tender is very friendly served a great pint 👍

16/05/2026: Up there with the worst pubs in Dublin. Has great potential but my god everything it could do wrong it’s doing.
