The best restaurants in Dublin

27/09/2026: I've been in Dublin for a month and came here on several occasions. Great local atmosphere, really good beers and food, and live music on Saturdays. Best service I've had in Dublin. Even as a foreigner with limited English, the staff always treated me really well. Great recommendations too, spot on every time! All the staff are so friendly, and so are the regulars. I felt right at home. Thank you!

14/09/2026: I had an absolutely terrible pint here today. I only had 1 sip and it was warm and flat. It's seems like an upmarket bar so I was shocked that they would serve warm flat Guinness I won't be back

25/08/2026: I am a regular here, the food is amazing. Sid is wonderful and it’s always nice chatting with him. He’s very professional and well spoken.

25/08/2026: Lovely café with a warm, welcoming atmosphere and great service. Sid was especially friendly, and attentive. Would definitely recommend Bramble’s Café and will be back!

03/08/2026: Very best and tasty kebab and pizza. I recommend it.

03/08/2026: Tried Jamaal Kabab recently and had a great experience overall. The service was prompt and friendly, and the quantity for the price is definitely worth it. Most importantly, the food was really tasty and satisfying. A solid spot if you’re craving good kababs would definitely recommend!

07/08/2026: What a terrible pub. No words about the way it is managed as it isn’t. What I will talk about is the lovely staff they have to offer that pour their heart and soul into their shifts, whether you see them once or you see them all week they are lovely. Bar staff excellent. Very friendly. Floor staff high top quality. Very high standard of customer service. Two of staff I’d like to point out Jody being the first AMAZING. Really high standard, she knows what she’s doing 0 flaws. Might be treated badly and absolutly ran off her toes but she still shows up and puts her best foot forward. Soraya whom I was served by a month ago exceptional waitress, you need her she’s there, no questions asked. She comes in and really gets the job done, a polite and funny little girl. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for staff, no stars for the pub itself.

05/06/2026: Great Local Pub in Cabra Serves Great Food and Drinks. Also offers Function Room for All Special Occasions at Very Competitive Rates!!!

08/10/2026: Was staying in Dun Loaghaire on vacation from the states with my female friend and we stopped in to the Two Foxes on a Sunday night for a pint after dinner. A drunk guy with a small dog came up between us panhandling for a free beer, putting his skittish dog on the bar with a loud two-person band blaring. I finally agreed to buy this guy one beer as we were leaving and another guy comes up from behind and grabs my arm as I am handing the bartender A 10 Euro note. I told him to let go of my arm or we were going to have a problem and the way-to-young bartenders just stood there stunned. Then, 4 tequila shots arrived that the two guys planned for me to pay for the tequila, which I didn’t. I would avoid this pub unless your idea of fun is getting hustled for drinks, rolled for cash, or worse.

20/08/2026: Attempted to go into two foxes when I was met at the door by a manager who told me that I wasn’t getting in due to a few underage teenagers who had come from a nearby pub were too drunk and causing a disturbance. He immediately grouped me and a friend with them as we are young looking, but was unbelievably rude to us throughout the whole experience. I then went up to the bar where I provided ID showing that I was of age and I explained that I had no idea who the teenagers where and the manager told me that I was “chatting way too much” being very rude and then told me to leave. If you want to be treated like a scumbag by the management in a pub, I suggest you come here! If you don’t, go to anywhere else.

12/06/2026: Excellent, charming place to stay. The rooms were very clean and the beds very comfortable. Very close to the center and with incredibly friendly staff. I would definitely stay again. I loved it!

27/05/2026: Leaving the place after my first night, paide for two. Very small bed and uncomfortable sleeping conditions where I won't fit into the bed and will have to put my feet against the wall. Old, sagging mattress Hard pillow No hot water in the shower Noise throughout the night Light coming into the room from outside Privacy issue with the peephole lacking a cover highly dissatisfied. Only good thing it was clean

05/08/2026: Have been ordering takeway from this place from 2 years, I am so glad they decided to start this place again after temporary shut down. This is the most affordable Indian takeaway in Dublin and it's so worth the price. The customer service is great and the staff is so humble and helpful.

07/07/2026: Ordered the mystery non veg special for €11.95 very tasty and great value for money

29/06/2026: Calling this “healthy” is misleading. It’s made with sugary strawberry (or mango) flavoured ice cream and reconstituted fruit juice, so don’t be fooled by the marketing.

23/05/2026: We always come here and love it. Good prices and great options

29/09/2026: Great pint of Guinness, gents toilets need a little TLC...

25/07/2026: Always a great welcome from the Staff in Kyle's. Great Pub

26/12/2025: We arrived at The Port House Cava for our booking at 1pm Christmas Eve. The restaurant was empty except for one table. All the other tables were vacant. The server greeted us and immediately warned us he needed the table back at 3pm. That’s fine. We sat. We waited. The same server was down the back chatting with the kitchen over the pass. We waited a little longer, still no drinks order was coming. I decided to draw some attention to our table by going up to the empty bar. The only occupied table gave me a glance that I read as a comment on the hopeless service as they tried to get the same servers attention. He was still chatting at the pass while the only two tables were both waiting for some attention. Up to the bar he saunters, I ask if we can order some prosecco. We only have Cava he says “they are the same thing”. No there not I reply, but ok let’s have a bottle of cava and if you don’t mind 6 glasses for our table. Back at our table he produces a wine list which would have been handy when we were seated. The cava arrives. It’s barely chilled. I say nothing. Again the same server reminds us that he needs the table back at 3pm. My blood is boiling at this stage as my family as I are made feel like we are an obstruction of sorts. The food arrives and it’s delicious. Well presented. Well cooked and a delight. The first bottle of cava is empty. I’d like to order another but the server is back down at the pass chatting again. To command he attention, again I get up and venture to the bar. Another server has started his shift just before 2pm. He’s more attentive. We order another cava and a bottle of rosé. 2.40pm and the 2nd server starts clearing our table. 2.50pm and they are hovering around our table to let us know it’s almost time to go. The restaurant is still empty except for one other 3top table. The bill arrives and I settle at the bar leaving half the tip I normally would. I ask the server why the hard push on getting the table back while the restaurant is empty. He has no answer. Which points me toward the owner or manager who I know will read this review. So, dear sir or madam, your pockets would be better lined if you spent as much time on encouraging your staff to deliver a good experience rather than a punctual one. You’re employing bus boys, not servers. We’re paying for the experience of which the food is only part. The atmosphere was dead just like the bookings. What’s the different between The Port House Cava and Tapas Del Lola? The staff. The staff. The staff. You’re doing Camden Street no favours with this diabolical customer service. I strongly suggest you consider adding some charm somewhere because you’re just not at the level of some of your good neighbours.

23/12/2025: Amazing place. Prices too high.

13/09/2026: Good meal deals, tasty pizza and available promptly for collection.

05/08/2026: Excellent food, lovely staff, plenty of parking space in front of shop. 10/10 loved it! Will be back 100%!!

16/07/2026: Not content with giving a three quarters full container Then in future orders watering down the satay sauce, they're now charging people €13 for a HALF tub of satay sauce with the prawns. If you're lowering the amounts and quality you should lower the prices. You've lost a customer of six years.

23/06/2026: Take out and cash only! The locals love it,and so do I!

15/10/2026: The manager seems like he has been steeped in happy literature! I had such a great experience. If I had time I feel like I could write a great tome and be nourished.

02/10/2026: Got the Reuben sandwich and while the flavors were fine, THERE WAS ONLY ONE SLICE OF PASTRAMI! And the crust was so hard it was inedible. €14 is normal nowadays for Dublin, but it needs to be slightly worth it.

18/05/2026: Friendly staff good range of fresh fish
