08/10/2026: The Lady served me was outstanding 😊!

02/10/2026: Absolutely the worst drive thru experience / long wait …. 15min + … All staff look like they hate working there … never again will use this restaurant …. Disgusting behavior on staff ….

08/08/2026: Omg the esquires manger adriana and the girls are lovely people and the food is very amazing 👏 me and my mom loved the food and the staff

Melissa and her manager made sure all of our questions were answered and dietary requirements were met! Thank you for your care and the delicious food! We will be back and recommending to everyone!

13/09/2026: The staff is unable to make a simple coffee or cappuccino. I’m not used to write bad reviews but it is happening all the time.

07/09/2026: Dear Insomnia Carpenterstown Team, I would like to take a moment to share how happy I am with the service at your Carpenterstown café. I am a regular customer and I am always so impressed by how friendly, kind and welcoming all the girls are. The café is always clean, tidy and beautifully looked after, which makes every visit a real pleasure. I usually come with my children, and I honestly feel that the half an hour we spend together there, surrounded by such lovely staff and a warm atmosphere, is my little daily moment of relaxation. Having my coffee every day in such a wonderful place has become something I genuinely look forward to. I would especially like to mention one wonderful member of your team, Aneta. She is always smiling, incredibly friendly and helpful, and she makes every visit even more enjoyable. Her kindness and positive attitude really make a difference. Thank you to the whole team for creating such a lovely atmosphere and for always making us feel welcome. You are doing a fantastic job, and I just wanted you to know how much it is appreciated. Warmest regards, Alicja

26/10/2026: This is a down to earth low cost restaurant. It has a varied menu of simple everyday food with good sized portions at reasonable prices.

17/10/2026: Superb prices, plenty of food to choose from . Recommend to everyone

14/09/2026: Order on a Monday night took 1 hr 45 mins to arrive from ballyfermot to Drimnagh disgraceful

09/07/2026: I love the spice bag from here, they have the option with prawns! Always fresh, spicy and very tasty !

31/07/2026: Fix your WiFi. It’s 2026. Seriously.

15/07/2026: Always consistently good coffee!

30/09/2026: Absolutely disgusting service. I ordered food from you and, once again, items were missing from my order. I tried calling at least 50 times, and nobody bothered to answer the phone. You literally have ONE job: to put together an order correctly, and somehow you still can’t manage to do that despite getting paid to do it. How difficult can it possibly be to check that everything is actually in the bag before handing it over? What makes this even more frustrating is that this is NOT the first time. No matter which McDonald’s I order from or go into, the same thing seems to happen. Missing items, incorrect orders, and absolutely no effort to fix the problem afterwards. Is this the standard you have been instructed to provide, or are you simply hiring staff who are completely unqualified, careless and don’t give a damn about customers? Because there is clearly a serious problem with the way your orders are being handled. I am absolutely done ordering from McDonald’s. You have lost me as a customer, and I will certainly be making sure that the people around me know exactly what kind of service they can expect. You still own me €8. Thanks for nothing!

28/09/2026: Really cozy McDonald's. Food and staff great.

13/10/2026: excellent food i order from here every week and every time it is cooked with passion the staff are so kind each time very patient and polite and they always get orders spot on and does be ready really quickly never had a bad moment amazing prices love it

30/06/2026: Tried ordering through Just Eat, as we had a long day going around dublin and wanted to have a night in our hotel. Ended up waiting 2 hours, order never arrived and they don't answer their phone.

25/09/2026: RUN AWAY, YOU POOR FOOLS!! An hour's wait at a barely cleaned, unset table in the cold, only to be told it would take another 20/25 minutes to get our meal.

28/07/2026: I mentioned that the price of the rice wasn't explained beforehand and that the dishes were extremely unpalatable. The restaurant showed no remorse or apology whatsoever; instead, they desperately tried to justify themselves. So please, everyone, don't go there unless you want to be abused and subjected to inhumane treatment.

05/11/2026: The food was excellent and the atmosphere was fantastic, I highly recommend it.

05/11/2026: The serving is massive (but it also costs 20€+). We got there around 21:00 and they said orders are only for takeaway because even if they close at 22:00, they still need to clean up to be ready for closing. Keep this in mind if you want to dine there after some late night drinking. The food is ok!

06/08/2026: Poor sandwich at best, hard bread & dry.

24/07/2026: I rang the shop in Stillorgan, and asked if they did dairy free cakes, as I can't eat dairy, I think she was spanish, but so rude and just said no we don't, even if they did I wouldn't go there. They should train their staff how to have mannerson the phone. Very disappointed

22/08/2026: Food was good although the chips sometimes don’t have enough spices on it

15/04/2026: 1 hour and half and my foods not here yet

23/06/2026: Great entertainment nice place for a local drink

03/06/2026: Very nice place....very traditional irish pub....lovely people and staff are very friendly...really recomend this place..👍

23/10/2026: food is amazing, workers are kind and professional, the best prices near biomedical institute and business school

30/07/2026: never opens on time. Waited outside for 15min but staff did not come out when it was supposed to be open

07/10/2026: Dear KFC Customer Service, I am writing to make a complaint about my recent order. I ordered a meal that was supposed to include 10 pieces of chicken wings. However, when I got home and checked my order, I found that there were only 8 chicken wings in the box. I am very disappointed and honestly quite angry about this. I paid for 10 pieces, so I expect to receive the full amount that I ordered and paid for. It is frustrating to get home and discover that two pieces are missing, especially when I have already left the restaurant. I would appreciate it if you could look into this matter and provide an appropriate refund or compensation for the 2 missing chicken wings. Please let me know how you intend to resolve this issue. Kind regards, Darren

05/10/2026: Fairly busy as we were a group of 11. Seated all together. Staff friendly
