The best restaurantsof irish in Dublin

12/05/2025: What a great and relaxed, bright space to have breakfast! Family friendly and staff were kind. I recommend this place

06/05/2025: This café was a great place to take a short break and find some peace in the middle of Dublin. We walked from the castle and found great gift shops other boutiques on our way. The atmosphere was really pleasant, and while seating depends on how busy it is, the side seats are definitely the best if you can get one. Prices are also reasonable, making it a nice and affordable stop during the day. Cute tableware as well!!

10/05/2025: It was okay, nothing out of ordinary. The portions are miserable , another dublin hipster restaurant speakeasy but food not upto the mark ! Like stop ripping people off

06/05/2025: Excellent food. Not a big choice on menu but everyone in party of 9 really enjoyed their meal. Service friendly and helpful. Very much on expensive side but just about worth the money. Very pleasant ambience, so overall recommended.

19/05/2025: I had a lovely night staying with you in May. My room was very comfortable and the service I received from Bala, was great. I would highly recommend a stay at the Talbot Hotel. Thank you.

17/05/2025: The only complaint I would have about my room, the very loud thumping music coming from gym in hotel. I complained in person to a staff member on reception. I rang down one morning at 6.15 as music had started up again. I was moved to a quieter room. I found a bit of difficulty getting in and out of bath. Next time I would ask for a walk in shower if possible. The food was lovely. Your staff on reception and in bistro were so kind and attentive. I would hope to return in near future for more relaxation and good company.

17/05/2025: Very rude guy, didn’t want to heat 1 minute the food of our baby in the microwave. First time ever I had this reply and definitely never happened in Dublin, that is super baby friendly. Family with kids, please avoid.

03/05/2025: When you want to engage in conversation after the manic pubs and clubs of the Temple Bar area, this is the place. Great selection of beer as well.

13/05/2025: Very delicious food. Staff were so friendly and the location is perfect

10/05/2025: Lovely visit to Herbstreet for brunch this morning. Glad we had booked as it was very busy. This however didn’t compromise on the friendly welcome that we were greeted with and the attentive service throughout. We’d booked an indoor table but asked if we could sit outside as it was such a beautiful day and the outdoor seating area at the front had a lovely view over the docks and was basking in sunshine. This was accommodated and early explained when the table was to be returned. Great menu with a range of breakfast/lunch options. Food was delicious and portions very generous. Hadn’t visited this area of Dublin before but lots of interesting sightseeing opportunities close by for afterwards. Hope to visit again.

11/05/2025: best night ever! fantastic service, great (massive) meals. The best landlady who Spoilt us rotten organizing an impromptu live performance from two extremely talented musos 💗

24/04/2025: I had the beef stew and bar none in was the best Beef Stew I have ever had. They even offered more once I had finished which truly shocked me. This pub/Restaurant is a must visit if in Dublin. I wish we were staying longer so we could come again before leaving.

17/05/2025: Always has a place in my heart. A very vibrant pub.

13/05/2025: Great atmosphere, lovely people! Food was great every time i visited in the past 2 years. I mostly go for the carvery, especially the lamb shank and the beef! Match it with a pint of Hophouse and everything is just great! The cooking team deserves a raise, especially for the two dishes I mentioned above! Location is also great, a walk after food in the botanical gardens is amazing!

17/05/2025: A place where the mind dwells in perfect harmony with the atmosphere of this pub.

17/05/2025: Traditional pub on the Liffey, live music, classic dishes, good service, very charming and historic location.

11/05/2025: Seems to be the only pub that has survived in Rathfarnham village. Nice area to sit outside on a sunny day for a drink. We didn't eat but the food looked nice. The group beside us ordered and it seemed like a looooong time before the food arrived.

11/04/2025: 1 hour waiting for food on a sunny Friday afternoon. No communication about the obvious issues in the kitchen. First time visit from a new Rathfarnham resident, won't be back for many years.

13/05/2025: Great experience and perfect location for a corporate networking event. Such a unique location, every raved about the attentiveness and kindness of the staff and how delicious the canapés were. Jaya was my point of contact and she was excellent to deal with, professional and quick to answer any query throughout. We had to reschedule our event from last year and she was extremely helpful. Hope to visit again!

05/05/2025: We were here last weekend for a hen party and it was amazing! Staff were so friendly and helpful and drinks flowing non-stop, we had a great time. Would highly recommend for future events!

14/05/2025: Always a favourite pub to visit in City Centre, busy but still space to stand and enjoy a pint with friends

14/05/2025: What great pub on the corner of Dame Street. Sat/ Sunday is a must if there is a band on, plenty of room to dance. Look up their site for upcoming dates and bands. Sunday used to be a SKA night and it was brilliant. Great selection of whiskeys. If there is one drawback, it is the Loos , they are down a flight of stairs 😲

31/05/2025: They should have a new upgrade and free beers more beers lots of free beers it's to hot so I like it cold inside they should make new beers like slytherin beers hogwarts drinks

14/05/2025: Have just had the worst fish and chips ever in Kavanaghs. I've been reading reviews from a couple of years ago and there not bad. Obviously you had a different chef then. Today was absolutely horrible, fresh fish shouldn't smell of fish, the batter was soggy on both the fish and onion rings, the peas were straight out of the fridge. When I complained I was told the fish was fresh in yesterday from Kish. I was told hake is always a gray colour, I've had beautiful hake on several occasions and it was snow white in colour and odourless. The home cooked chips were an absolut joke burned edges ,hard in the middle. Cmon guys 20 euro and not willing to make a concession for complaining. Our total bill was 64 euros, lovely bar man and nice clientele, but you really need someone who can cook properly. I won't right you off totally, but I'll never be back for food. Maybe even giving us a free capuchino could have avoided this criticism.

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

07/04/2025: Great place to meet Larko for a few roasters.

29/04/2025: Atmospheric, food good and prices fair for location .

24/04/2025: Excelente cena. El personal, las bebidas y la comida eran increíbles. Estuvimos en Escocia la semana pasada e Irlanda esta semana. Durante nuestro viaje probamos 4 lugares diferentes para el pescado con papas fritas y estos fueron los mejores. Nuestro bar tierno (Marta) nos hizo bebidas increíbles. El gerente fue genial. Desde el momento en que trató hasta el momento en que nos fuimos que era muy agradable y se aseguró de que estábamos teniendo un gran tiempo y servicio. Nos alojamos en el Castillo Clontarf y también nos encanta la ubicación, el estilo y la comodidad de las habitaciones. Ojalá pudiéramos quedarnos más tiempo.
