Glas
Dublin
16/09/2026: We’re lucky to get a table here on our last night in Dublin and so happy we did - what a beautiful experience!
14/09/2026: Glad presents itself exceptionally well, fully living up to the expectations of a restaurant that has been featured in the Michelin Guide for some time.
The menu is thoughtfully curated, sophisticated, and entirely vegetarian, with numerous vegan options. Furthermore, the ambience and interior design contribute to an elegant, fine-dining atmosphere.
The menu showcases a creative array of vegetables prepared in unique, surprising ways. We particularly appreciated the attentive service, as the staff were thorough in describing every single dish.
However, I did notice a few minor hiccups - most notably during the wine service, which left drops and marks on the table. Additionally, hearing the staff chat within earshot about whether customers were on a first or last date felt rather unprofessional.
While these issues may seem minor, they fell slightly short of the standard expected from an establishment of this caliber.

Copper Alley Bistro
Dublin
23/07/2026: We had a very good dinner at this restaurant. The service was very friendly, they greet you with a smile and give you all the necessary explanations about the dishes. We liked the careful presentation of the dishes.
23/07/2026: The restaurant and the service was great but I was very disappointed of the seafood chowder, I don t find mussels suits very well on it, bits of shells are very hard to eat, very crunchy, I would say it s the worst one I ever eat, very cheap version of a traditional one

Side Door Restaurant
Dublin
17/09/2026: A good place for the Irish breakfast. Despite the place being packed on a Wednesday morning, the service was super friendly and swift once a table opened for us. Bonus points for no QR codes
17/09/2026: We visited Dublin end of August. This little place is classic! The host got folks in and out from the queue and waited tables to boot. He was excellent but please note there was a quota on how many questions you could ask. Don’t ask for cream with your coffee. Just order a white coffee. I admit I asked way too many questions. So if you’re like Sally in When Harry Met Sally this is not your place!! Our waiter gave us his very best service considering his workload and ignored us when appropriate! The owner who we didn’t know anything about harassed our friend for not finishing her plate and implored us to get the —— out!! We loved it!! This is a greasy spoon kind of place, so if you’re looking for upscale and scrupulous just forget about that and go elsewhere. We do wish we got a photo of the owner with our friend. He’s the best…

Fish Shop
Dublin
26/09/2026: Excellent place, very good quality fish and the chips are a real treat, I recommend it, very good place.
22/09/2026: I went there to try the fish and chips. The cola in the picture is very different, I recommend it. It appeals to us, but I can't say it was amazing, but maybe it's because we come from a coastal country. Try this cola, it's quite good. Also, as you can see in the photo I took from the restroom, hygienic products are offered free of charge. Very good, it's usually very crowded, the place is very small and limited, they don't let you in without a reservation, but I went alone so they were helpful. I don't know if it was peak hours, I went around 4:30 PM, you should still make a reservation.

The Pepper Pot
Dublin
18/09/2026: Well guided by the Routard guidebook, we spent a little while looking for the discreet entrance before discovering this large interior space. Upstairs, we were seated after ordering. Our brunch was enjoyable.

The food was well presented and really delicious.... What's not to love about Findlaters of Howth... We'll be back...
13/09/2026: Nice historical pub, expensive prices and was pretty busy, so all good for the cash register but I prefer quieter spots. Great views of the harbour.

Ely Wine Bar
Dublin
06/09/2026: We love going to Ely for breakfast, drinks and food, so it was really disappointing to witness the service yesterday. An elderly couple sitting outside were being looked after so kindly by Michelle — she turned on the heater and made sure they were comfortable.
Erik then came out, turned the heater off, and when we asked for it to be turned back on because the couple were freezing, he refused and said, “Can’t you see I’ve just turned it off?” We explained again that they were cold and just needed a few minutes of heat, but he dismissed it, said “It’s not that cold, they shouldn’t be cold,” and walked away. He never returned, even after 25 minutes.
His mannerisms and attitude towards the elderly couple were genuinely shocking. It felt rude, dismissive, and completely at odds with the warm service we’re used to at Ely. It’s a shame, because we really do love the place — but this experience left us very disappointed.
25/08/2026: The wine and bites deals food components didn't appeal, but the standard menu eas great and thr wine list put of this World. Wr went simple as had a big day the next day, but I would definitely go back again

Madigans

20/09/2026: It was our first ever trip to Ireland and this was the highlight of our trip. The people who work here are so incredibly lovely. We felt like in a home away from home.
And the food was great too!
