The best restaurants in Dublin

02/09/2025: The cakes made me and my partner unwell 😭 Also they were not great tastewise.

16/07/2025: Quiet nice place spacey bakery/coffee shop, selling delicious fresh sourdough bread, cakes, pastries, sandwiches and coffee. I had a polenta cake (really delicious, nicely balanced flavous - adding a photo) and a flat white with almond milk ☕

16/04/2026: Pink undercooked chicken, disgusting

25/12/2025: Food was really good for me.But my bf said some parts tasted bland.Which i do not agree.Foods came hot.Loved it

19/04/2026: Very small portions considering cost. Staff are friendly and helpful.

24/01/2026: Very poor experience. We were given a voucher as a gift to use at this restaurant. We arrived to the Gibson at 7.45 for our reservation at that time - got seated etc. We got our menus and waited for someone to come back to take our order or even drinks order. We had to get someone’s attention (at this stage it was after 8pm). She came back to us and asked us if we wanted “the good news or the bad news”. She told us the bad news was the kitchen is now closed (??) so we can’t order but she can bring us to the bar and we can use our voucher there. I told her i thought this was absolutely outrageous because someone just sat us down and never told us about having to order before 8, nor did anyone try to get our order in before the deadline, and she said she agreed with me but that she wasn’t the person who greeted us at the start. Food in the bar was fine. We eventually got our first drink at 8.30 - 45 mins after we arrived. When the bill came they knew nothing about our gift voucher which we handed to the initial lady, and they had to go searching around for her and the voucher. We couldn’t help but laugh at how poorly this night had gone. If you’re getting dinner in the area before a concert, would recommend Ruby’s, the Mayson or Cill Airne over this establishment.

29/06/2026: Food isn’t fresh , I came early in the morning before they open and food was still there in containers in a bad state

06/06/2026: I was completely disrespected once again by the manager at this location. I previously sent an email to the company regarding the unacceptable treatment I received from the same manager a week ago, and I never received any response. Today, he disrespected me again and even admitted it, saying, “Yes, I did disrespect you.” He also told me that he doesn’t like people like me. How can a company place someone so emotionally unstable in a leadership position? Someone like this should not be managing a team or dealing with customers. Being treated with such disrespect is unacceptable under any circumstances. It’s truly disappointing because the other employees are incredible, polite, and always willing to help. However, this manager is completely unprofessional and creates a terrible atmosphere. With him there, the environment is awful. Without a doubt, this is the worst place I have ever been to.

26/05/2026: Went there before 8 pm no staff at the counter waited for 10 mins staff returns and says we are not serving I could see online orders being prepared store is supposed to be open till 10 pm if the staff isn't in a mood to work or server customers due to work fatigue or any other reason try at least to be a bit pleasant to other human being.

11/05/2026: Went there and your one didn’t have a lick of English and couldn’t work her own shop. Disgusting food won’t return…

17/01/2026: Absolutely horrible service. Ordered a 4 in 1 with sweet and sour sauce (I asked this through just eat notes which is what they’re there for), and a 4 in 1 with curry sauce comes. I rang them to just let them know thinking they’d apologise and offer to switch my order as ai literally cannot eat it. They told me it’s my fault as I didn’t ring to switch to sweet and sour sauce but it’s in the notes? I do this all the time at other restaurants and it’s no problem. They then asked me would I like to order a sweet and sour sauce I said is it free as my order is wrong? And they said I would have to pay for it…? God forbid someone addressed an allergy on their just eat notes, they just don’t bother reading them clearly. Don’t order from here, I know I never will again.

01/01/2026: Absolutely vile. And burnt..waste of money

24/11/2025: This place used to be nicer but it's not anymore. The new options aren't that good and they don't even give crisps on the side. It has a nice vibe but they've got a lot worse over the years.

15/08/2025: The guy who served me was quite rude, and the coffee wasn’t the one I ordered.

06/07/2026: The order arrived on time, but the quality is crap. The sandwiches were crushed, dry, and cold. We ordered toasted sandwiches, but they didn't. The nachos were cold with a piece of cheese. The cheese balls were incredibly spicy, and they didn't warn us. The potato waffles were soggy and in one piece. One cookie was bitten off, leaving teeth marks!!!

11/06/2026: Great food and nice staff, say so far it's one of the best subways in Dublin. Was helped how to use the self-order kiosk by the staff. Sadly it was interrupted by poor deliveroo drivers shot gun passenger who abuse the staff. There should be a policy to protect staff… also if someone who's shotgunning for the deliveroo driver is picking the order. Doesn't seem like my food is being delivered safely if I'm the one orderifn food. Who will hold responsibility if the order isn't right. Shouldn't be the subway staff but the deliveroo driver for sure.

19/02/2026: Save your health and avoid this place. Food authorities need to take action… fast.

19/02/2026: Absolutely horrible place. The owner walking around in sandals with his huge toenails exposed while you try to eat. Tables all sticky and dirty. Hygiene is completely absent here and any self respecting Irish person should avoid. I’m extremely ill after eating here!

22/02/2026: Thank you, Hazel, for the amazing recommendation ❤️⭐ The black coffee is delicious, and the almond croissant is excellent. I will definitely come again. I think the Google Maps reviews are unfair.

26/05/2026: Went there before 7:45 pm staff is at break came back at 8pm still not back from the break if the closing time is 9pm Ur on break before 7:45pm and then never return till the store closing at 9 so better just close it at 7 and update the details online

12/05/2026: Subway is absolutely my favorite fast food restaurant, so it was definitely a nice surprise to find one here. I like the way you can customize your sandwiches, and the staff were kind enough to help me choose. The space is quite narrow, but still enough to move around. You can't eat inside.

15/05/2026: Chicken fillet baguete was very poor........ Im still chewing the chicken....same piece, 7 mins in

12/04/2026: Absolutely 💯 per cent awful man this evening bald man and (Polish maybe) ORDERED 10 bags of chips online got a call to ask if salt and vinegar was wanted....great customer service from a female! Went to collect the man tried to joke about the amount ordered my husband said it was for the guys protesting.....the man didn't take kindly to it and told him 20 mins to wait! 30 mins on still waiting and left with no food husband demanded a refund and left we spent our money elsewhere!!. This place was always amazing the food was wonderful for the last 20 years!! Management need to look at who they're hiring! Never again will I or family members revisit

02/04/2026: Absolutely shocking. Chicken balls where flat with a scabby bit of chicken and a half bag of chips with the order, the prawn crackers were broken up into tiny pieces and rhe curry sauce was disgusting. Never again

28/02/2026: Avoid avoid avoid!!! This is the worst Chinese restaurant iv ever gotten food from soggy chips burnt chicken wings curry sauce taste like it’s boiled looks like porridge! Attitude from the driver! My god there is more love between America and Russia then there is between the cooks and the food in this kip! If I could give it less stars I would

03/07/2026: Ordered late at night , didn’t receive the order, horrible customer service We didn’t receive the pizza or a refund

10/06/2026: Absolutely awful ordered pizza at 1 am, cheese was lumpy and not properly melted, dough was hardly cooked way to much garlic shake ruined the pizza and smell was awful, shouldnt be opened that late if the quality is going to be muck

28/02/2026: I had their spice bags a few times, took two hours just to get here and one of the times their spice bag got me sick, wouldn't eat it, kip of a place

08/02/2026: Staff need to learn the difference between saucy spicy and salty spicy ones a lot more manageable than the other Mrs wasn’t able to eat her spice bag
