The best restaurantsof irish in Dublin

18/07/2026: Fabulous Gastro Pub. The food was lovely. I am still thinking about the mussels 💕 Staff couldn’t do enough for us. Highly recommend.

11/07/2026: The staff were lovely, very accommodating. The service was good. And the food was really nice 👌 Nice comfortable atmosphere, you can definitely just chill out and relax here. I would recommend it. And I'd definitely dine here again!

08/06/2026: Just to be clear, this is a nightclub with a hotel side hustle. We were greeted by a bouncer that asked us if we were “in the right area?”The entrance is in the nightclub vestibule, so we naturally looked out of place. After we clarified that we were staying at the hotel, he let us in. We then proceeded to be told by the Manager that our reservation did not exist, and that we could not be staying at the hotel because the entire hotel was closed due to renovations. I proceeded to show the manager our booking, confirmation, and our prepaid €800 bill. After this irrefutable evidence that we had booked a room months in advance, he then randomly “found” a room for us and let us through. Upon settling in our rooms we realized that there were no renovations at all, as well as other guests at the hotel. Our friends waited hours for extra sheets, neither of our rooms had coffee pods for the coffee machines in the room, and ours had a used pod in the machine. Coming back a day later from being out and about in Dublin our room keys no longer worked. The manager lied directly to our faces, for that sole reason I would not stay here under any circumstance.

15/05/2026: Went for a proper Irish breakfast and it dud not disappoint. Great atmosphere for a quiet coffee too.

10/05/2026: The hotel is a 30-minute drive from the airport. A great pub is a 10-minute walk down the road.

11/06/2026: Really nice and typical Irish pub!

10/06/2026: Everything is fine here except for the noise. The music playing downstairs is crystal clear, and cars are constantly passing by on the main road next door – the traffic noise is absolutely terrifying. I asked to change rooms but they refused… speechless.

28/06/2026: Live music was amazing, love that we got two ABBA songs back to back by request. The flag decor was top notch and festive!

14/06/2026: Lovely little cocktail bar in a very cool setting. Friendly service and exquisite selection of cocktails!

17/02/2026: We had an absolutely fantastic stay at The Morrison Hotel, and can honestly say it is one of the best hotels we have stayed at in Dublin. The location is excellent, right in the city with easy access to everything, and having parking directly at the hotel is a huge bonus. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming and helpful throughout our entire stay, which really made a difference. Breakfast was outstanding, with a great selection and very high quality. The room service menu was far beyond what you would normally expect. We ordered beef Wellington, monkfish pasta and several desserts – everything was delicious, reasonably priced, and delivered to the room within 20 minutes. The rooms themselves are modern, newly renovated, spotless and very comfortable. You can clearly tell that a lot of thought has gone into both design and cleanliness. Overall, this is an excellent hotel in every aspect. We would highly recommend The Morrison to anyone visiting Dublin and would not hesitate to stay here again.

14/02/2026: We spent one night in this hotel located in the centre of Dublin. Everything was perfect : very clean, the bed is huge and comfortable. I would definitely come back.

17/07/2026: If I could give the older grey haired barman a personal star rating it would be zero. I ordered a cocktail as advertised and it was actually undrinkable for a €14 cocktail, I normally would never complain but I asked would it be possible to get the cocktail remade because something tasted off in it. Simple request I thought, as someone who has worked behind a bar, I am familiar that sometimes drinks can be made off/ differently or wrong in some cases. But the response I received was “we are not a cocktail bar”… huh?! Explain why I ordered a cocktail off you then? Anyways, after that response I just asked for a simple spirit and mixer instead. When I sat back to my table I could see the bar man chatting and pointing in my direction, I couldn’t have got out of there quicker. We finished our food and I for sure won’t be back 🍸 side note there was a lovely young waitress serving us for food.

05/07/2026: Lovely pub with super friendly and efficient staff but the food is very basic. Lots of choice but is at a level your mam would make. Had the striploin and it is not chargrilled as advertised and was over cooked. The place could really up their standards given the level of choice in the area. Can't take away from the staff and atmosphere though

06/01/2026: Unfortunately, this restaurant has closed permanently. It will be sadly missed by regular happy customers. See my review below: The best breakfast / lunch restaurant in Monkstown bar none. Everything on the menu is delicious it’s so hard to choose. Super service too! I’m a regular and always will be. Highly recommend an early G&T.

06/12/2025: 3 stars max because the place is cosy and the coffee is good, but I wouldn’t return there for the brunch menu…branch menu is just average and not a good value for money.
