The best restaurantsof irish in Dublin

03/10/2023: Did not eat food here but the bartenders were awesome!

14/12/2024: Don't be fooled by the numerous award plaques on the outside (all dating back over at least a decade). This place is a huge disappointment and appears to be doing very little to capitalize on its prime position, beside the river, in a town that draws visitors far and wide. For what you get, it's overpriced. The staff are lackluster. The produce is dull and lacking any presentational pazazz. They cannot make a decent cup of coffee. You're left with impression that this is a business on the way out. I first came here during the Covid pandemic, when they were taking significant liberties with public health regulations at the time. The same laissez-faire attitude seems to persist. This is ripe for a visit from the Brennan brothers - or to be taken over by a more imaginative and entrepreneurial owner.

01/09/2024: We have dined here a couple of times in the past and were very happy with the food. A super location and well fitted out. The americano and cappuccino we had today in large cups had too much water and practically tasted the same. Maybe there was a change of ownership or management, as the upstairs section is now a shop. So disappointed.
