The best restaurantsof irish in Dublin

04/04/2026: (Booked on AirBnB) Great, central location and has option for three single beds in one room. Whilst the beds were comfortable, I would not recommend this place for light sleepers as there were extremely loud, thumping music on a parrarel street from 4pm (until past 10pm) which even made our toiletries literally shake on the shelves in the bathroom. Room was dusty, no tv and appalling water pressure - even attempting to flush the toilet was hard work which needed holding down and multiple attempts to do the basics. Shower pressure and temperature was awful, like a dripping tap and did not reach a warm temperature at all Handwash was a Dove bottle with some cheap refil, last time I checked, Dove shea butter handwash was not blue or translucent 😂🙃 Left bags at the 'reception' (pretty make shift desk in corridor) as room was not ready yet and it really was the definition of 'leave at your own risk' as bags were not secured in the back room or anything and just left by the doorway for anyone to grab if they wanted. Lift was broken for whole duration of our stay and would not be accessible for those that cannot walk up multiple flights of stairs. If you are on a tight budget and will only be in the room for sleeping then it is ok for the bare minimum bed but would not recommend otherwise especially for the noise pollution, which I am surprised not many others have commented on.

07/02/2026: The room was okey, but the bathroom got dirty so quickly, the room was quite cold too. It was not cleaned even though we asked to clean it if possible. The noise on the weekends was terrible, there is some techno club just underneath so don’t expect to sleep to until about 3-4am. The location was great though, very easy to get everywhere. So if all the above doesn’t bother you, it would be a good option.

24/02/2026: Went in here for a quiet pint with a friend I am on a crutch small disability r leg the barman that came on middle aged guy told me to leave because I was on a crutch so I'd had one pint was sitting on a stool at the bar went across the road to Kenny no problem there ill let you take what you may from this so much for friendly staff abs good atmosphere my friend complained to the barman and he said oh he might fall so blatant discrimination against a man with a slight disability by the way I have never fallen anywhere I would like to see what the owners have to say about this bar man's actions

29/09/2025: (Traducido por Google) El fantástico pub siempre ofrece entretenimiento en vivo y la comida es de primera calidad. Además, el personal es muy servicial. (Original) Great pub always brilliant live entertainment and the food is top quality plus the staff are very helpful

14/03/2026: Charging 50 too 100 euro just for entry in the 15th Paddy's weekend. 🤣🤣🤣u rip-off

07/03/2026: Best place to watch a cricket match in Dublin

10/03/2026: The Speaker Pub in Dublin 24 is an okay place to stop by for a drink. The atmosphere is casual and relaxed, and it’s a decent spot if you’re in the area. Nothing particularly special, but it’s a fine place to spend some time with friends.

02/01/2026: The Asian bartender should be let go on the spot for bullying customers and hopefully the owners will take a note. Went there with my partner to have darts. For the 2 minutes there, all I said was can we have the darts to play while discussing who is having what for drinks. He was interested to get the order first and went to pout Guinness and then to the bar area to get the ginger beer. Since we didn’t wanted to wait at the till for several more minutes asked again for the darts so we can go and play while the beer settles and etc. he went to grab the darts cup then gave a smirky stare and said - how many times you have to ask for follow by some humiliating and angry aggressive words how impatient we are and etc. we just stayed silent and waited for him to calm down. Apparently the silence completely derailed his emotional momentum and he screamed at us “what is your problem”. In dismay, we just sat there shocked and tried to reason him down that all we want is the darts and nothing else. He snatched the ginger beer screamed again and brushed off from the lounge to the bar side. There was no manager on duty but we plan to go back and make sure the owners are aware. Ive been to this pub plenty of times and this is simply unacceptable in any standards. There are cameras and I hope the owners will review the situation from 02.01.26 at around 2.55 pm.

04/04/2026: Worst fish and chips in my life! The fries were not fried enough, the fish tasted like nothing and the batter was way to oily. Plus the portion is way too small for 21€!!! (Thank god it was this small in this case because I couldn’t have eaten another bite of this) The best thing was the music and curry sauce to end on a good note.

02/04/2026: Had cod and chips. Fish was nice , crunchy batter , fish cooked . Chips weren't to my taste bit limp, I like them a bit crispier but that's personal choice. Mushy peas were very runny. Nice touch with the tartare sauce. But on the expensive side at £22 but its in a tourist area.

04/01/2026: We went for lunch for 8 people before a game in the Aviva. Service was very poor, no consistency with waiting staff. We were served by a different waiter every time. Very slow to get drinks and food. It took over an hour for the kids to be served their food. Food was average but overpriced. Tempura prawn starter had 2 prawns for €22. Kids meal €18 for 2 courses!! We were the only table in the restaurant so I’m not sure why service and food was so slow. The hotel is beautiful. The setting is lovely. If service was better this could be a great place to dine.

19/10/2025: Truly awful experience today for lunch. We had been on many occasions before and were always wowed by the atmosphere food and service. A group of 6 of us arrived for lunch today and were seated next to a group of 50 people which appeared to be a christening. The noise was deafening, children running around screaming and staff were few, and very overwhelmed. The food was really poor, the accompanying salad with the prawn tempura lacked freshness, the steak was as tough as old boots with no marination, and the ice cream for dessert was similar to what you’d get at a children’s birthday party. I complained to management and they did discount the bill, a solid gesture but not what I was looking for! We were looking for a nice meal in a ‘small leading hotels of the world’ restaurant but it felt like a cross between McDonald’s and a roadside cafe. Management need to step up, this is APPALLING, and we will not be stepping in there ever again

30/10/2025: Fantastic pizza, top-notch quality!

23/10/2025: I practically order it every week; we're two of a kind at home, and I'm not kidding, both for pizzas and esfihas. Zero flaws and the best choice.
