The best restaurants in Dublin

03/10/2025: 1st time there. Ryder Cup was being televised. Great atmosphere & service. Really friendly staff & punters too. Will defo be having drinks there again

17/09/2025: Best pint of Guinness in Dublin!

25/11/2025: I would not recommend. Order a coffee and a scone with jam and butter. When I asked for an itemised receipt after payment -he gave me this weird breakdown. Whilst I did not ask how much the scone cost as I was in a hurry, i’m not sure if this was accurate. Update I never ordered syrup, nor was there syrup in the coffee. I had oat milk and you overcharged me in all aspect with this weird receipt. I would not recommend.

21/11/2025: Great food, great value, and very friendly staff

08/12/2025: Great calm atmosphere good food

06/12/2025: Great place. Very nice waiter. I recommend everyone to visit this restaurant.

22/11/2025: Visited this lovely restaurant on Saturday night. Very warm and welcoming staff. There is a nice atmosphere here. The food was delicious. We ordered the wings to share for starters and then the beef burger and chilli nachos. Both were tasty. Chips were nice. The restaurant has a nice split between more fancier higher end food like cod and pork and then more rustic dishes like burgers and battered haddock. Their drinks menu offers a range or local craft beers, a great selection of wine and cocktails. Quality and price were very good. Next time we go there we want to see how their brunch menu is. There is a lack of great brunch places in the D9 area so it has the potential to be our new go to on weekends. Would highly recommend.

09/11/2025: We love this place! We’ve been here quite a few times and the food was always delicious, the staff is nice and friendly and the atmosphere is cosy and lovely. Highly recommended

26/10/2025: The smoke was unbearable. They really need to fix the kitchen. Also,it's important to be flexible with the menu and accept changes to some plates especially when there are few option that are not classic.

25/10/2025: It is a very cosy place. The service was very good. The waitress was very kind and helpful. Her tattoos were great! 😀 The food was very tasty. It is worth to try a coffee with Baileys!

18/11/2025: For years, the canoe centre has been my go-to supplier for all things kayaking, providing the essential gear for both my personal adventures and for the youth organisation I work for. I've bought everything from "tip to toe," and the level of service has never wavered. ​The staff are phenomenal first dealing with Shane & Ciaran to the last couple of years with Hugh they have consistently offered knowledgeable and supportive assistance. The online shop is very user-friendly, stocking strong, quality brands that focus on depth of quality. ​A recent experience highlights their exceptional commitment: When a package went missing after posting, the team at the canoe centre put my needs foremost and promptly dispatched a second package before the original was relocated by An Post. This kind of proactive, customer-first service is why I continue to go back. ​No matter the size of the purchase, I always feel valued and acknowledged. An absolutely stellar sales and support service. Highly recommended.

04/11/2025: Fantastic Level 2 Kayaking Course with Keith! Keith was amazing — patient, knowledgeable, and knew exactly when to push us (and when not to!). We (Carmel and Sarah) were the two oldest in the group, with one of us new to kayaking, but he made it fun, supportive, and full of laughs. The group was an added bonus — we’re now all on WhatsApp calling ourselves The Liffey Lickers! Can’t wait for our next river trip with Keith to build on everything we learned.

29/08/2025: Amazing shop with a wonderful selection. The team there is so friendly and knowledgeable. I will be back!

15/08/2025: Wool for knitting and crochet, fabric for quilting and sewing. Coffee shop to what more could you want lovely staff

18/11/2025: Always excellent and great vegetarian options.

25/10/2025: Zero gluten free options. Do not believe the AI source on Google because it's a 100% farce. Started a terrible afternoon with my wife because if this. Thanks AI for nothing. On the other hand the steak and ale. Pasty I had was great, bit of a heart burner and not as good as Grampas Pasties but he's dead so it'll do!

14/10/2025: Awesome food! Lovely service! The sandwiches are 🔥🔥

12/09/2025: I just had the best sandwich ever.

20/09/2025: The staff is exceptionally friendly and helps you choose your meal. They also politely ask if everything's okay. I'll definitely be back.

23/08/2025: Very warm welcome Fast service Excellent food Top

15/12/2025: THE WORST SCAMMER IN TOWN. First day in Dublin and I am ripped off. We booked a place for 3pm, when we arrived there, the table was not ready. after 20min of waiting they finally brought a menu which we needed to notify the waiter that we just siting with no menu. We asked for the clarification which pricing of Christmas menu we are getting as it was already past 3pm waiting for the menu to arrive to our table. (lunch menu and dinner menu price was different by 20 euro) and was not planing to sit for dinner price if that was the offers, he then continue to point out and clarify that we are getting the lunch menu price. The food was horrible, appetizers was okay although it is not authentically moroccan (my friend is from Morocco), and main dish was full of disappointment. The only good part was potato and olives beside the main protein. We did’t even finish the meal. Then comes the payment, we were demanded the price of dinner menu instead of lunch, and when we told the cashier that your waiter clarified that we are getting the lunch menu price. He then continue to say “THAT IS A LIE”, did’t event bother to cross check with the waiter. Then he continue with very forceful voice “who is gonna pay 120!” We were two girls and we felt very attacked and disappointed at the same time. Management should streamline better communication with the employee there to prevent such thing to happens again. All the people of Dublin is very kind and atmosphere is amazing here but this experience really ruined everything.

14/12/2025: Very disappointing experience. The set menu cost €60 per person for 3 courses. No selection or opt out option. The starter was just a plate of a selection of dipping sauces etc between 2 people. The main course was a choice dish but when it came out the meat was over cooked, incredibly dry and did not taste food. The cheesecake dessert, the only option, was pathetic. I was looking forward to a nice Moroccan dining experience and received anything but and then charged this extortionate price. Avoid this “Christmas” set menu!

07/12/2025: Everything was perfect. Friendly staff, clean and the food is perfect

06/12/2025: Came here for my mothers 25th birthday. Brilliant food super mega yummy !!

08/12/2025: This is the place for a enjoyable day out

06/12/2025: Attended a conference at Leopardstown Racecourse and was really impressed. The facilities are excellent – modern, well organised, and perfect for hosting large events. The staff were helpful throughout, and everything ran smoothly. The views over the racecourse are fantastic and add something really special to the day. Overall, a brilliant venue for conferences, meetings or events. Highly recommended.

06/07/2025: I had the fish & chips special, which was delicious, along with a glass of cava. The two went great together. Also tried a mango / passion fruit tart, which was amazing! The place is cozy and the service is great. Had a lovely time!

04/07/2025: I saw the summer special for fish and chips and a glass of cava for €26 and decided to try it. The service from when we got there was great. We placed our order and the food was out in under 10 minutes. 2 cods were on the plate but I’d say the star of the dish was the tartar sauce never had anything like it and the fish was super crispy. 10/10 would recommend and the cava pairing worked really well!

08/12/2025: delicious food and good atmosphere

20/11/2025: Good service, everything is fast, tasty, beautiful, thank you very much
