10/06/2026: Good place, the food is good and typical. Fast service.

17/05/2026: Very nice atmosphere. The food was great and the staff friendly and fast service. Definitely recommend

15/05/2026: Nice location adjacent to a large and peaceful park, walking distance to many restaurants, shops, and businesses. In my stay for a week, it was mostly quiet except for a commotion involving hotel staff loudly conversing right outside my door one night. The room was fine, until I happened to take a bath the last day of my stay. The bathwater was BROWN. Checking the sink, it was too. Not brown enough to notice in a glass, but my goodness, I'd been drinking that all week. Hotel staff that night said it just happens sometimes and is safe. Hotel staff the next morning said it was due to construction work, and the plumbers thought it might happen but didn't know where or when. Breakfast was pretty good. Staff was also pretty good.

10/05/2026: Stayed here on 15–16 April 2026. Recommend!!!

13/04/2026: Top service and the food was incredible.

29/03/2026: Food was lovely especially the Lamb shank. Service was terrible, there was a basket with bread taken from my table and I wasn't even fishished with it, it was just swiped by a younger member of staff. There was a younger woman with glasses she was very helpful and professional and another older woman whom was doing the bar . It was those two women whom were carrying the staff.

28/09/2025: Very pleasant atmosphere, great service, and good food. For such an iconic place, it's not overly expensive compared to other places in Dublin.

24/05/2026: Googled a nice restaurant near Slane and this one came up describing a Mediterranean experience and to book tables online. We couldn't navigate the booking process but decided to try drop in and give it a try. Turned out it is a pizza takeaway with no seating

23/05/2026: Delicious food, fabulousstaff and service, relaxed vibe, we love this restaurant.

06/01/2026: Always friendly and accommodating, helpful around allergies and food intolerances. Great tasting and well presented fresh food.

17/05/2026: Historic pub in Crosshaven County Cork. Good seating and drink choices.

10/05/2026: Can only review the food and service as didn't order any drinks. Ordered fish and chips. The salad was really good. The chips were overcooked and some were very hard. The fish itself was way overdone. The batter was almost burnt and the fish was swimming in grease. I'm guessing the oil needs to be changed. Service very average.

11/06/2026: What a great place!! We spent a couple of days here. Everyone from the start were so friendly, casual, cool, yet efficient and on it! Great food, great service and a great pint of Guinness. Off street parking at the back, accessed down the left side of the building and room for maybe 9 or 10 cars. Shauna and team were a delight! We'll see you guys again!! Five stars all day long ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

11/06/2026: Stayed here for 2 nights and couldnt be happier with picking this place. We were debating between a few options and am so glad we went with this B&B. The town is just large enough to have a bit of anything you are looking for, but small enough that it has quite the charm, is easy to walk to every store, and is quiet in the nights. The B&B room was fantastic with a very comfy bed and the rooms also came with complementary water bottles. Breakfast was freshly cooked every morning. Shauna was very personable and gave us tips for our adventures including which way to drive to experience other activities and what to do to make the most of our want-to-do list. The only challenge was the parking lot, which is immediately to the left to the lodge. It's very small with one way in and out, and it's difficult to see incoming traffic when leaving. However despite this all, we didn't run into any problems. Sheena also offered that if we ever came back and didn't see any spots to let her know and she would move her car, as well as offered an alternative nearby option to park our car. Thrilled with our entire experience here.

12/06/2026: 5* food and service. We had a delicious brunch (breakfast served until noon) in this family friendly spotlessly clean pub. Looking forward to returning.

19/04/2026: We had a wonderful meal here tonight, the burger was put of this world. Thank you for treating us so well.

05/04/2026: Connor, the barman at Avenue Bar and Restaurant, is absolutely exceptional. His mixology is incredible, his service is outstanding, and it is all topped off with the kind of personality every customer hopes for. Connor is the reason we became repeat customers. If his drinks were not already the star of the show, he easily would be himself. He has made several evenings truly memorable. Matteo also deserves a special mention. He is consistently welcoming, attentive and professional, and he adds so much to the warm atmosphere of the place. His service is excellent, and he helps make every visit feel smooth, relaxed and enjoyable. They are truly lucky to have him, and his contribution certainly does not go unnoticed. Andrew was an absolute pleasure to be served by. He was attentive, personable and eager to make sure everything was just right, and nothing ever felt like too much trouble. What really stood out was the human touch in his service — we had such a lovely chat with him, and it was genuinely refreshing to be served by someone so warm and engaging.
