The best restaurantsof irish in Dublin

26/10/2025: Not recommended, friendly welcome upon arrival, food not very special. The staff got grumpy because you didn't leave enough of a tip. Strange turn of events at the end of the evening.

22/10/2025: A very nice experience… Friendly service, good food (Burger was delicious though they do it well done)!

23/10/2025: Please clean the toilets same stains for years

05/10/2025: We had a few beers and an Old Fashioned there. The staff were very friendly. Dalkey is generally a very nice place. Recommendation: buy the Leap Visitor Card for €18 for 3 days. This allows you to travel all over Dublin on public transport. 72 hours of freedom. Definitely worth it. We'll definitely be back to this pub.

09/11/2025: Absolutely amazing. Had the best food and time. Thank you to the kitchen staff for accomodating my allergies. Special shout out to Rory for the amazing service and hospitality. Definetly a must try when in Dublin.

08/10/2025: They look good, and the BBQ wings are delicious. The nachos are also very good. The steak sandwich is also great. From Monday to Thursday, you can get a snack for €10 per person, including a pint! A dream in Dublin. The waiters were friendly.

12/11/2025: By far one of the best breakfasts I have eaten. Great atmosphere and lovely staff.

29/10/2025: Great pint of Guinness. Food is good too.

13/11/2025: The most spectacular Wedding at House Dublin! September 2025 Back in September 2024 we started our search for the perfect wedding venue in our hometown of Dublin. Our second venue on the list was House Dublin. To say they had us at hello is an understatement. From that first contact we knew this was going to be something very special. Nichola, the most fantastic Wedding Event Manager, took the reins and really listened to our ideas and vision for our celebration, provided guidance, suggestions and a plan very quickly came together. We chose to hire the entire venue for the day and all charming accommodation rooms booked also. Throughout the run up to the big day, we felt Nichola and her colleagues were part of the team, all invested in ensuring our wedding celebration was spectacular. A couple of months before we were invited for a tasting session where we would sample menus. We had the pleasure of meeting Neil and the incredible dining and bar staff who welcomed us and made us feel very much at home. The food was far beyond anything we could have anticipated, this was one serious foody extravaganza. We were served the most incredible dishes, every one of them a unique taste experience. Our excitement was heightened only by the incredible service we received from the most friendly team. The quality of the dishes were astounding, and considering the price points we were looking at for our wedding day, this completely blew us away! I cannot stress enough how good this food was. We were looking at about 150 guests, so making this a meal to remember was no small undertaking. The scene was set for the wedding of the decade!!! As plans progressed and we got closer to our big day, Nichola and all the team rallied around us to ensure no details were left to chance. Our vision for our ceremony and various musicians and bands came together seamlessly and nothing was too much trouble to accommodate. We opted to check in the evening before the celebration, and stayed a few extra nights also. From the time we moved in, and it really did feel like we moved in lol, we felt at home and were welcomed by all staff members. We felt very spoiled indeed. The support given to align a very large seating area to accommodate our guests and the tablescapes were simply beautiful. Our vendors were supported and House Staff ensured everything was in place. Our first viewing of the fully decorated venue was breathtaking and the day got better and better. The friendly smiles greeted us and our guests, drinks, canapés quickly followed. The dinner service was impeccable, everyone worked so hard to ensure guests were seated efficiently to commence. There was a real party atmosphere and the smiles and chatter of both guests and staff was heartwarming. And then the food, just WOW!!!!! It was simply divine. Every option, the most incredible flavours, everyone was blown away. This was truly the best. I cannot stress enough how impressed our guests were. But it doesn’t end there, we dined like kings, we danced the night away, enjoyed the bar immensely of course. We were treated to the most spectacular experience by absolutely every member of staff. And still it doesn’t end there, the next day we enjoyed superb breakfasts, gorgeous chats and laughs with all the staff and as we were also staying another night after we were made feel right at home. There was nothing we could have wanted for. We were sad to leave!!!! Everyone helped us by packing up all our boxes and bags and helped us move back out for want of a better phrase. We had the most fantastic day, few days really, and couldn’t have asked for a better start to our married life. So many to thank, in particular Nichola, Neil, Tony, Charlie and all the onsite staff. You are the best in the business and we cannot thank you enough. We are looking forward to many more opportunities to visit in the future. Thank you again, Jim and Carrie Conway xx

03/11/2025: We stayed at this hotel for two nights. The price was $160 per night. Let me start with the good things (don’t worry, this part will be short): * Great location, everything is nearby, and the airport bus stops just about 100 meters from the hotel. * The rooms are clean. * There’s a good restaurant downstairs (but I’m here to review the hotel, not the restaurant). Boom boom boom, that’s it… Now the bad — or maybe even terrible for $160: * There is a bar/restaurant downstairs with loud music, and you can hear the bass even on the 3rd floor. For us it was tolerable, but if you’re staying on lower floors or if peace and quiet are important to you — this place is not for you. * The heating in the room did not work. I mentioned this to the staff a couple of times, they checked it, saw that it doesn’t work — and that was the end of the story. It was around 5–7°C outside at night and in the morning, not much warmer during the day either, so imagine how uncomfortable it is to stay in such cold conditions. And this costs $160 — usually discomfort comes for free, but not here. * There is no proper lighting in the room, just a few weak night lamps. It’s quite dark if you need to work on a laptop or have poor eyesight, or even if you just want to read a book. And this is $160! * The water pressure is terribly weak. Normally it wouldn’t be a big issue, but since the room was freezing, taking a shower became a real challenge — you’re literally shaking from the cold every time. And this is $160! Ps: We’ll see how the hotel handles communication with its guests — we did expect at least some kind of compensation for the discomfort we paid for.

12/10/2025: Contraf castle, is just a hidden gem.. Fabulous

02/10/2025: Took 17 minutes to get my 1st Guinness (and we visited at 3pm) I watched the poor girl, who was doing everything herself, pour my Guinness almost to the very top, before slamming it down. I had to remind her to top it off - worst point I've had in Ireland. Food was average - an expensive lesson learned.

24/09/2025: Good vibea and good service. Food is delicios

14/09/2025: (Traducido por Google) Buen desayuno Sin embargo, sentí que maximizan la estructura de carga de una manera muy injusta y costosa. Personal bien informado sobre el juego que se está jugando. (Original) Nice breakfast. I felt however that they maximise the charging structure in a very unfair and expensive way. Staff well briefed on the Game being played

06/10/2025: Nice pub , had a toastie and a tea for a light lunch

28/09/2025: The pub is great. Comfortable and airy. A great place to watch the game with friends and have a pint on a Sunday.

10/10/2025: The only reason I didn’t rate my food 5 stars, is because it was a bit too spicy. Other than that I was PLEASANTLY surprised! I’m usually a very picky eater because I’m scared of germs and new food but this place was awesome. It was clean, happy environment, and the food made me come out of my comfort zone to try. I got the California bagel with everything removed except avocado but when my food came out it had avocado and grilled chicken. BUT, it looked amazing and even though they were very apologetic and willing to make it again, I insisted that it was okay and I didn’t mind. And I’m so happy they accidentally put chicken on my bagel because it was absolutely spectacular!

03/10/2025: Sometimes you don’t need the coziness of a pub, but rather good craic and a wide variety of beers – that’s when this is my go-to spot. And just one door down, you’ve got the cozy pub for when you’ve had enough of the big buzz.

08/09/2025: Hard to get staff’s attention Coffee was less in quantity and ordinary in taste At the current price point, they should think about improving the food and how they can provide more value for money food. (Advice to the owner: try Cinnamon in Dublin)

04/09/2025: Extremely rude staff ....arrived at 650am was too early for a coffee staff member main chef said not open untill 7am so I waited came back at 7.01 when supposed to be open and told nobody here to help you till 8am were busy out !!!!shocking customer service !!!!

05/09/2025: Good choice on offer. Well made. Counter hand is grumpy, but worth putting up with

02/07/2025: Food is expensive, but it is fresh and good selection

24/08/2025: We got the feeling that they didn't want to serve us at 8 p.m. They told us the kitchen was closed and there were people dining...

23/08/2025: We were there last Friday. Waitress was not customer friendly 2/10 I got tea with sour milk , a colleague got the smallest portion of risotto you could serve Rip off and terrible services. Unlikely to go back and we were regular.

07/06/2025: Great small bar with sport on tvs

07/05/2025: Had a quick pint at this cozy bar today. And we loved the place and the very friendly lady working here

25/05/2025: No matter how I think about it, the taste is not worthy of the price.

16/05/2025: Incredible burger, staff and atmosphere.

27/10/2025: Excellent service. Wonderful atmosphere. Staff amazing and super helpful. Kitchen does its best to accommodate dietary requirements. Definitely worth sticking your head in the door.

12/10/2025: UPDATE: Constantly increasing their prices. And shrinking their portions. I once held this as my favorite pub in Ireland and was a regular customer but it’s gone very down hill. My most recent curry and goats cheese had 1 slide of courgette, 3 slices of pepper and was nothing but sauce and rice. Total rip off from their previous delicious food. Previous review: Best pub in Ireland. If only they would bring back the scampi and fries. Lovely staff. Heaters if you want to sit outside.
