The best restaurants in Dublin

11/12/2025: Nice place, free parking, seems very popular.

08/01/2026: Friendly,accommodating and helpful staff. Highly recommend this hotel

02/01/2026: Stopped in to grab lunch after a funeral and was very well looked after by the staff there. Good honest food and generous serves.

15/09/2025: We hosted a hen party here on Saturday for 21 ladies, and it could not have gone better! The team were incredibly accommodating – they allowed us to set up our own decorations and food, and were so helpful with everything from start to finish. We had corkage on some bottles of prosecco for a welcome drink, and the staff went above and beyond making sure everyone’s glasses were always topped up, even when we moved up to the top deck. As we essentially ran an open bar with drink tokens for guests, it was great to see how respectful and honest the staff were – they made everything so easy for us and didn’t take advantage in any way. Another lovely touch was being able to connect our phones via Bluetooth for music, which meant we could play our own playlist on deck and set the perfect atmosphere. The whole experience was honestly the highlight of the day, and all of our guests had an absolute ball. Thank you so much to everyone at the Dublin Canal Boat Restaurant for helping us create such a memorable start to our hen celebrations!

15/09/2025: Wow! We attended a hen party over the weekend & absolutely everything was perfect. The boat, drinks, sound system & every single member of the crew were AMAZING. We had the best day party & start to the day Thank you

18/07/2025: I come here very often and buy two of my favorite bakery items an Almond Croissant and Chocolate Orange Cake

03/07/2025: Nice bakery and pastry shop in Stoneybatter, lovely almond croissants, beautiful sourdough loafs and nice Toastie or pre made rolls. Highly recommend

27/08/2025: I am a coffee lover, and I can say that these guys served me a tasty one. 😻

23/08/2025: Anytime I get to visit Dalkey, I head to Pepperlaine for the best cappuccino and tasty treat to fuel me up for the day browsing around this lively village. I’m looking forward to popping in over the Lobster festival for my caffeine fix and the chance to pick up a great locally sourced gift for an upcoming birthday while I’m there.

04/08/2025: Cleaver East has been my friend groups go to place for all of our birthdays for the past 7 years. The bottomless brunch is incredible, quick service, great cocktails and great food. Decestated that it's closing due to the hotel renovations but hopefully it opens back up and we can continue to go forever more!

03/08/2025: Our favourite restaurant in Dublin. So sad to it close. We eat again here on Sunday 3 august closing nite and had another amazing meal. Good luck to all your wonderful staff ,, it’s been a lovely 12 years of dining here. From max & Harry

05/12/2025: Very small portion for a really high price

15/10/2025: Love this place. Fab fresh food everything. Staff are happy and helpful! Ideal for a swift healthy lunch.

30/12/2025: Booked for a special birthday dinner. Food was good for most of our party but my steak was overcooked. Told waiter but nothing more was said as I didnt want to return it & eat on my own! Service was poor. Overall disappointed!

15/12/2025: Too overpriced prawn = strimp dessert cost 20 dollars

26/08/2025: Oredered cake for my daughter, amazing decoration and delicious taste (fresh cream and strawberries) and yet price is so affordable. I wish they had more options for cake fillings.

06/08/2025: I ordered a cake for my husbands 40th birthday celebration, it was in a fabulous box and even came with candles, it tasted absolutely delicious and if we ever return to Dublin I will most definitely be ordering another cake! Thank you.

15/11/2025: Great coffee and nice outdoor space.

26/10/2025: Great coffee and great customer service. My go to!

26/09/2025: Lovely little cafe with delicious coffee and sandwiches. Great value lunch meal with a really good variety of choices for a sandwiches. Highly recommend it

11/08/2025: Good pastries and coffee. Pleasant atmosphere and good service. Reasonable prices, something not very common in Dublin. I recommend it.

02/12/2025: Amazing breakfast , service was bit slow but overall good experience

06/11/2025: Fab food, great coffee and very chilled vibes!! Veggie sandwich was amazing 👏

01/01/2026: The menu has gotten smaller in years, which would imply that simple things are done very well. The chicken curry was turkey meat, the burger was on the cold side and the chips seemed like they were scraped from the bottom of the pan. I think there's only one dessert option at nearly a tenner which is crazy. Understandably the cost of everything has gone up- but if kitchens keep cutting corners and use only the cheapest options, you're going to lose revenue in the long term. This is not just the DH, but across the entire industry.

11/12/2025: When the weather is dreich you need a proper pint in front of a proper fire. This pub delivered.

20/01/2026: Honestly my biggest gripe was with the size of the burrito, it was rather small. Also, quite bland ? I am used to burritos having a variety of flavors, while here I could mostly taste just the sauce. Weak flavor of rice, beans, meat etc.

07/01/2026: You have to care about your costumer....no just you wrap a burrito in 10 mins and leave people on the queue waiting because you have no experience in what you do...we don't have to pay for your laziness!!

22/11/2025: Honest question - since when have you guys had a "no shorts" dress code? I came in looking to grab a quick burger, but was turned away by the doorman... New rules, or just newly enforced since I was a single guy and not with my girlfriend (like all the other times I've come in)?

20/10/2025: Went in for a bite to eat and the staff are absolutely amazing, just old school kindness and that goes a long way in this day and age
