The best restaurants in Dublin

14/05/2026: Was at a function there. Food that came during function was surprisingly poor. Chicken skewers with a grape stuck on the end of i which were bereft of colour/sauce, sausages with no colour & grain mustard & wings which were meh. Update: 2nd event attended, beef was chewy and almost inedible. Apart from that, the place is a gem

14/05/2026: OMG!! The best bed... had the most relaxing shower also (the soap smells sooo IRISH SPRING like!!) What a a fancy spot. we left before breakfast, but we heard great things! Nestled in a quaint community. a 12 minute walk to shops, ice cream, a supermarket and the cutest flower shop ever! definitely recommend staying here when in Dublin!

15/09/2025: Everytime the girls working here are so patient with me when I come with an order on my phone given by my bf 😅 they’re the nicest people ever. 5/5 to the service and 5/5 to the quality of the food. My number one choice for Chinese food :)

03/09/2025: One of the very few places in the city centre where you can get a good value takeaway. Good portions for an affordable price. Highly recommended!

07/12/2025: Recommended this place by the team at Hot Box Sauna. Amazing coffee, the foam for the flat white was silky smooth. Can’t wait to pop back it will become my weekly coffee spot.

13/10/2025: Great coffee and friendly staff thanks Finn

23/04/2026: I was there during my lunch break and the service was great. Food was very good and the music selection and volume were spot on. I’ll make sure to come back after work to try the cocktails! Thank you

18/04/2026: Ventured in on the 17th April with no reservation as we were just up in Dublin for the night and wanted to get a bite to eat. The staff made arrangements for us to sit down and were extremely friendly. I got the special which was the chicken tacos and it was amazing ! We had a couple of cocktails and they were also fantastic! The spicy margarita was definitely spicy (in a good way!) All staff were extremely friendly and made us feel were welcomed. Will definitely pop in again next time I’m up in Dublin and would recommend !

17/04/2026: Excellent food, lovely atmosphere

15/04/2026: I had such a fantastic experience on Monday, and a huge part of that was thanks to Jane. From the moment she greeted us, she was warm, attentive, and genuinely enthusiastic—it really set the tone for the whole visit. Jane’s recommendations were absolutely spot on. She suggested the seafood spice bag and the mussels, and both dishes were incredible—full of flavour, perfectly cooked, and clearly chosen with care. You can tell she really knows the menu and takes pride in helping customers have the best possible experience. What stood out most was her friendly attitude and attention to detail. She checked in at just the right times, made us feel completely looked after, and added such a positive energy to the evening. If you get the chance to be served by Jane, you’re in for a treat. She’s an absolute credit to the team, and I’ll definitely be back again!

16/03/2026: Excellent Mother's Day lunch.Roast beef perfection, fantastic spicy margarita, and delicious date sponge. Would go back.

13/03/2026: Great food, great moment, great service, especially from Iñaki!! All the best from France

20/04/2026: Great staff and friendly atmosphere. Sunday night pub quizz, nice bit of fun. Heineken was excellent

19/04/2026: This food is absolutely perfect! 🍔 The burger tastes homemade and incredibly delicious! We also enjoyed some fantastic fries and chicken wings! The staff here are super friendly, and the location is ideal after a visit to the park. 🍟🍗 #Food #Burger #Fries #Wings #Staff #Location

31/12/2025: I arrived at 6:30pm on New Years Eve without a reservation. And when the woman in charge heard I was a party of one she immediately found me a spot. The curry chicken was great, and a huge serving. And it also included garlic bread AND chips! And since it was a special night I ordered the bread and butter pudding. They added every extra possible, and it was amazing! Thanks to all for making my solo night a memorable one! (And for keeping my glasses safe until I returned for them.) Highly recommend!

28/12/2025: Brilliant place to go for food and drink, the staff are so friendly always interactive the bar staff are great banter so welcoming a 10/10 experience my new spot Well done The balgriffin Inn you have it just right ✌️

08/03/2026: First time there yesterday. Have always passed it over the years and always wanted to go in for a pint. Walked in yesterday. Sound barman served us Fantastic Guinness. It's a beautiful pub. Had a nice stroll around it as it wasn't busy in the afternoon. Will definitely return.

02/02/2026: Classy pub, with the traditional storefront, hardware and perfume bottles that used to be for sale. "Just going to the hardware store to buy a couple of nails and an Eau de Cologne", that old tradition. Heineken 0.0 on tap, that's pretty rare, and cool.

21/12/2025: Was in mood to try a new coffee shop today, I was very lucky spending some free time here this morning. Coffee is really really nice with a rose on top, which is a small surprise to me. Sitting alone the river in a sunny day, enjoying some sunshine, watching the flying seagulls. Had a very relaxing and contemplating time.

06/12/2025: This cafe offers a modern and welcoming environment with a relaxed flow throughout the day. The layout avoids congestion, allowing visitors to sit comfortably for longer periods. It’s particularly suited to extended visits where you want to unwind without distractions or pressure.

20/04/2026: Let's go through the pros of BoBos establishment; nice atmosphere, cleanliness is top notch and the staff were excellent in customer service. Unfortunately, the food falls a bit short; I ordered The Dubliner (Irish beef patty, Dubliner cheese, relish and pickles), while the toppings adds a nice touch, the beef patty was not so great. Quite bland and dry, definitely incomparable to some of the burgers I tried in some establishment. Still, I would provide a solid 4 stars as I was treated well and the environment was nice.

19/04/2026: My husband and I enjoyed a gorgeous dinner here this weekend. The burgers were juicy and delicious, big portions and great options. We also had the chocolate brownies for dessert and thoroughly enjoyed them. The staff were very friendly, and the playlist was great! Will definitely return!

17/04/2026: Best breakfast we've had in Ireland

16/04/2026: Best place for a full Irish ☘️ breakfast in Dublin! Owner is great craic. A must for everyone

07/01/2026: Very nice pasta, would highly recomened..look forward to trying some of the other pasta options on my next visit....

29/12/2025: The best Carbonara I‘ve ever eaten!

12/04/2026: Great atmosphere and good pints

29/03/2026: I was in Dublin for St. Patrick's Day in 2025 and visited this bar several times. I did it again in 2026. 😀 I really like the bar. The staff is exceptionally friendly and attentive. The locals are great too; as a traveler, you're given a warm welcome. The karaoke in the evenings is hilarious! Until next time!

20/04/2026: Just like a pizza from Italy, everything is perfect, the restaurant, the food and a very polite service

16/04/2026: The best restaurant in Dublin the real Italian food
