The best restaurants in Dublin

01/11/2026: Loved the food and filter coffee

29/10/2026: Too spic this was a disaster and the yoke behind wouldn’t stop taking photos of the back of my head I’m angry at you and I can’t stand anymore you bouzouki you are a real one

04/10/2026: A lovely campus and facilities, recommended

16/06/2026: Very cosy and less hectic campus than Glasnevin. All rooms airy and the library is spacious

31/10/2026: Excellent service. Menue quite acceptable & very good value.

18/10/2026: Had a delicious dinner last night in The Saddle Room. We were greeted and looked after by Maurice who is authentically enthusiastic about his work in The Shelbourne. Extremely knowledgeable on the produce and wines available, so interesting to listen to. We were there to celebrate our anniversary as we got married in The Shelbourne last year. They picked up that we mentioned we were there for breakfast and when we told them about our wedding they gave us complimentary Prosecco which was a lovely touch. Atmosphere is great, we could tell how well managed the space was by the calm and collected tone of the kitchen as it’s just in view off to the side. Food was absolutely to die for - all 3 courses were spectacular. Looking forward to our next visit already.

27/10/2026: We had an amazing time, great food but the absolute best was how Barra and his team took care of our large party. Absolutely incredible!

22/10/2026: Very nice restaurant with super tasty meats.

28/10/2026: During the week, the atmosphere is bland. The service is average. Even though the meat is good, the value for money isn't good. It's currently the only restaurant where, despite the high price of the dishes, you have to pay an extra €8 for a side. And to top it all off, they automatically add a 10% service charge. Ultimately, this restaurant is overpriced compared to similar establishments.

26/10/2026: The food was very good, and service was very nice Lucas was very friendly

27/10/2026: Make sure to call ahead for a reservation! We made the mistake of heading there without calling ahead to check they had space. Really wanted to try it so ended up ordering take away from the counter to bring home. Food was fantastic, well priced and staff lovely. Highly recommend

25/10/2026: Excellent food, amazing service and cool interior.

07/11/2026: Highly recommended! The service, food, and staff were exceptional. The food was delicious, everything was excellent, and the atmosphere made the experience even more special. Definitely one of those places you want to return to. Thank you for making us feel so welcome! ❤️

02/11/2026: I didn’t try any food so I can’t speak to that, but I had a vanilla iced latte and it tasted a bit strange. It had a burnt flavor to it. Very cute place though.

19/10/2026: I went here for the first time 2weeks ago. The bowl was delicious, so I went back to get another one today. I didn't realise they only take card payments. I had cash but had forgotten my purse. The guy on the till was so kind and told me not to worry. I will pay them the next time I'm passing but it was just so kind for them to still give me lunch when I couldn't pay 🥹.

17/10/2026: i LOVE sprout!!!! the dawson street one is the absolute best, the staff are absolutely amazing and so lovely !!!! and the food is obviously delicious. always my first choice

20/10/2026: We just went for drinks. Good music.

19/10/2026: Always best. No way to visit Dublin without the Merchant‘s Arch

04/11/2026: Went to after visit to Glasnevin cemetary tour. Bar was full got seated in lounge. Tappas food. I had coddle very good. Guinness and smithwicks were good pints. I would recommend a visit after Glasnevin but be aware you might not get seated as very popular.

03/11/2026: Greatvold style pub with great pints

02/10/2026: Got 2 top class breakfast rolls from here made fresh while you waited. Best breakfast rolls I’ve ever had

29/09/2026: It was good, just kind of underwhelming.

18/09/2026: A really popular spot with a buzzing atmosphere. It was busy when we visited but the vibe was great and the pizzas were excellent. They also had a really good drinks selection. Thank you!

10/09/2026: Great pizzas and lovely cocktails!

30/09/2026: A must-try when in Dublin, the food is really great :)

30/09/2026: A welcoming and quaint pub, it's a city institution and one of the oldest in the country. Excellent beers and food, with an exquisite staff. A must-see if you're visiting Dublin—it's not every day you get to enjoy a pint where a Viking might once have had one!

13/09/2026: Lovely restaurant, halloumi tacos are my go too. Delicious!

06/09/2026: Delicious, definitely recommend the tacos! Eggs Benedict were fine nothing special but it does the job. We got the food super quick,even before the drinks, it was surprising! View is super nice, chill atmosphere and the waiter we had was very nice and friendly. Highly recommend!

17/10/2026: Great place, food is always tasty and service is great! Looking forward to my next visit!

11/10/2026: Summer time is probably the best time to visit this place. It's absolutely freezing in the small cubbyholes that they have. Staff are very nice and the food is ok. Very small portions and very expensive for what it is. We had a 45 minute wait because it was so busy and it only opened 10 minutes previously at 5 o'clock. It's in the middle of nowhere and at the back of someones house, mad set up. But isn't this what people are going for now. Something out of the ordinary. It wasn't my cup of tea but that's not to say it won't be yours. Give it a go and decide for yourself.
