13/09/2025: Awesome, my favourite restaurant in Dublin. Food was outstanding as always, the staff are very welcoming and friendly, will be back as soon as I can!

07/09/2025: Absolutely stunning and delicious food. We're visit this place on special occasions!

29/08/2025: We drove an hour and a half from Kilkenny to eat here and are so glad we made the trip. Absolutely delicious food, beautifully designed and executed to perfection. Everything was wonderfully tasty, from the bread ("sorry it'll be five minutes, it's in the oven") to the seafood and fish to desserts. Service was relaxed and friendly. Cannot wait to come again.

09/08/2025: Absolutely stunning fish and chips! Absolute must!

18/09/2025: Excellent in terms of welcome and food! Our family, who came from Brittany to settle our student daughters, found a lovely place to stay in case of homesickness! Thank you for your unforgettable smile!

18/09/2025: Food was amazing... great location... service terrific. Prices still reasonable for Dublin..

07/09/2025: What a lovely place staff were friendly attentive and extremely knowledgeable about the food they were serving the whole ambiance was calm moodyold world live music was played in the background never overpowering the ability to chat and soak up the place then the food comes wow ive never had chicken wings taste so goods went on to the Munk fish and finished with chocolate tart at no time did we feel rushed but were allowed to rest savour and enjoy the experience I cant recommend this restaurant enough and thank the staff for a most enjoyable Anniversary meal

02/09/2025: Lovely pint had an awesome night

02/09/2025: Very nice ambience and unexpectedly delicious food

30/08/2025: The food we ordered was full of flavour - some real comfort food. It had the feeling of a traditional Irish bar but with a more modern twist; I can imagine the high ceilings lend it well to the live music (unfortunately we were not around to hear any at the time). The service was faultless; super quick but we didn’t feel rushed. We therefore had plenty of time to finish our meal and our Beamish before heading to the airport to fly home!

29/08/2025: WOW ! My family and I had the best meal ever . 11/10 . The wine selection is amazing. Ask Arif to recommend. I’ll be back.

10/08/2025: We visited as a family of 4 (two teenage children). Unfortunately when we arrived this evening there was a VERY loud party of 6 in the restaurant which wasn’t a great start! We ordered our food from a very pleasant and attentive young man. My husband’s starter along with my own was garlic mushrooms. I found the sauce to taste a little bland and almost “watered down”. Our main courses (2 pasta dishes) were extremely salty. So much so that I only ate a few forkfuls and my husband left mussels behind!!…..not at all normal for him! Even my children commented on the chips with their meals being salted quite a bit. My husband was particularly disappointed as we don’t tend to eat out as a family that often so it was unfortunate. On a positive note, the staff we encountered couldn’t have been nicer and extremely apologetic when we mentioned how salty the food was. Our bill was reduced by the cost of my main course by way of apology. We did leave a tip in the end purely for the young man who served us. I would certainly value him as an employee if I were the proprietor.

17/09/2025: We had the best experience last Sunday evening ! The staff were excellent even though we were late because of the cannonball run , the girl on the desk put us at ease immediately- she was just the nicest! The meal / steaks were fantastic- cooked to perfection! Thank you guys we enjoyed our evening with you and hopefully visit really soon again 🙌

15/09/2025: I am French and this restaurant really impressed me. The artichoke soup was the highlight but everything was delicious. It is pricey but woth it.

24/09/2025: Fantastic food, the atmosphere was really great and staff very friendly. The surprise mixed starters where absolutely fantastic, cozy atmosphere, it got busy in the evening but not noisy in a way that was uncomfortable. Easy to have a conversation etc.

22/09/2025: Food was great. Servers seem to be both short handed and not paying attention. There’s a balance between being left alone to enjoy a meal and being forgotten about. We had to pass on desert and coffee after waiting 30 minutes … and had to walk up to the cash register to pay our bill so we could leave for our walk back to our hotel.

18/09/2025: Food was fine...but for that price I expected more. Not exactly mind blowing flavour coming from any of the dishes. In addition, the waitress at the end asked me if I wanted to give a tip and stared at me as she held out the card machine...I'm sorry but that instantly makes me not want to tip you.

07/09/2025: My favourite restaurant in Ireland without exception. I honestly haven’t a single criticism from the multiple times we have tried the lunch and dinner menus. Great value for lunch and exceptional consistently tasty food. Ox cheek, Venison, leek ravioli, pheasant - all incredible.

23/08/2025: Beautiful meal and stunning service!

23/08/2025: Beautiful service, food and ambience!

16/08/2025: Great food and great service we really enjoyed our brunch here! Highly recommended if you’re visiting this village 😊

10/08/2025: Absolutely beautiful, every time!!! Wish to bring my friends and family here. Quality is amazing, the chef and staff are always friendly.

13/09/2025: Very slow the service, although it was not full , it took 45 minutes to bring the food.

07/09/2025: Small indoor capacity, they'd benefit from a larger singular space inside where they can also put their shop and more seating. People tend to walk past when inside is closed as their outside seating is very affected by gusts of wind as no windscreen provided

13/08/2025: Love that place, and the whole neighborhood. I was just passing early in the morning and it was the only one open so decided to get a coffee before my appointment. Unreal coffee, best chocolate croissant ever and customer service was beyond expected. Loved the ambiance of the place, the music, the menu looks delicious and definitely will come back for brunch/lunch.

13/08/2025: Uno de nuestros “antiguos favoritos” - de hecho, mirando hacia atrás revisamos en 2019 y por varias razones no había vuelto en mucho tiempo. Encantado de encontrar este restaurante ha encantado una vez más con un maravilloso almuerzo relajante - comida excelente - Servicio excelente - ambiente como siempre excelente! Precio muy razonable incluyendo un humo de Pouilly muy decente para complementar nuestra comida.

30/08/2025: There have been several bad reviews of Java's which refer to the rudeness of staff, and I am not surprised. I live around the corner from Java's and have eaten there many times. But my treatment by staff on my most recent visit was simply appalling. I was with a friend, who has mobility issues and uses a stick, and thankfully there were a number of tables downstairs. The waitress indicated a table with three chairs, and told us we could sit there. We ordered our food, and the pancakes and coffees arrived. We were tucking into them when the waitress came over and said "Ladies, would you mind moving to that table over there? (a table for 2), there are four people who need this table". The four people were a group of French tourists, who were waiting at the door. We were frankly stunned, and didn't know what to say, but it was clear that we weren't happy, but the waitress just went ahead and moved our plates to the other table - in the middle of our meal! A number of people at other tables were clearly shocked at the way we had been treated, and one lady told us on her way out "I hope you get a refund from them, that was disgraceful". Then another waitress came over at one point and asked "were you not happy to be moved? If so you should have told us!" - as if WE were the one's to blame!! I explained that we had been very unhappy to be moved, but didn't want to make a scene in front of the French tourists. But even knowing of our dissatisfaction, when I went to pay the waitress (who had moved us!) was on the till, and calculated our bill - for the full amount! I said "Really? You are charging us the full amount?" She just shrugged her shoulders. I told her "we were not happy to be moved, and you could at least have let us off the cost of the coffees." Again, shrugged shoulders. I told her I would never visit the restaurant again, and I won't. Great pancakes, good coffee, pity about the appalling, rude and unprofessional staff.

28/08/2025: I was waiting for crepes for 40 mins when I eventually asked for my order seeing that people who came in later got theirs already. It obviously was forgotten about.. I probably wouldn't post this review seeing that the girl was a bit embarrassed, however I was still charged for a coffee. I would imagine a bit of decency not to charge me.. specially that it was late in the evening. not knowing Galway I googled around and didn't see many places opened at that time where I could have a treat
