22/07/2025: Beautiful restaurant and great food. Well done all 👌

15/07/2025: While I enjoyed the evening spent here, I’d put a lot of that on the member of staff that looked after us. The food was good and the service was friendly throughout. Given our party size we ended up being seated outside and the weather made this quite pleasant , however as the sun started to set it was obvious that given Dublins normal weather schedule of rain, the focus hadn’t been on making the outside area as special as the inside. The setting is lovely with large trees and garden to look over but there was no fairy lights in the parasol, very little lighting at all in fact. No outdoor gas fires (unless the large black ash tray is normally a fire), no attention to detail that you’d expect from a fairmont (see fairmont whistler for the perfect example of an outdoor space done right). Tables weren’t prioritised over the inside so dirty glassware were left way longer than should have been. Out of the extensive wine list only 2 and eventually zero wines were left despite the women’s open being over a week ago so a restock should have been done. There was also a hair in one of my parties dish that was just brushed off and one of our drinks came with crud on the glass so somethings slipping abit somewhere. Nevertheless, enjoyed my evening here but expected more from a fairmont restaurant.

16/09/2025: Got a fillet beef curry and the beef was awful, id say they boiled it last week and put it in my curry tonight. I rang the restaurant and the excuse of a manager wouldn't even speak to me, he shouted across the kitchen in mandarin to the fella I was on the phone with. I want a refund but he wants to give me more slop for free the next time i go there. I am very disappointed in the food and the service. I will never go back to this place.

23/07/2025: The food was absolutely delicious and very good value for money. The staff, there, are always so friendly and helpful. Tracey is such an enthusiastic person with such a bubbly and happy athmosphere. Recommend this restaurant 10/10

05/08/2025: Lovely shop with great quality variety of goods for sale. Cafe is great too. The staff were so nice and welcoming.

22/09/2025: We were quite a large party for the restaurant, 13 in total but they were very accommodating. The occasion was a birthday. The party included a 93 yr old, 2 type 1 diabetics and 2 people on restricted diets for health reasons. The menu was varied, lots of options for everyone and the staff were very helpful. The food was excellent, everyone was very happy with their choices. Highlight included chicken in porcini mushroom sauce (main) and the calamari (starter); younger party members had pizza and loved it. The atmosphere was very relaxed and pleasant; no rushing, attentive staff without being intrusive and good value for money. Highly recommend if you're looking a great dining experience in Newbridge!

04/09/2025: Lovely Italian, my husband and I have been a few times and always lovely, very nice staff

05/09/2025: Been ordering delivery from here for awhile and it's been great - burgers have been delicious, onion rings super crispy and moreish. Great portions. However, the fries are bad - they're lukewarm, not crispy, dry, and tough. Tastes and feel stale. Might just start leaving them out in future orders.

26/07/2025: I recently visited Backyard Diner in Leixlip, eager to satisfy a craving for a good beef burger. Unfortunately, my experience fell short of expectations, proving that not every glittering thing is gold. The smash burger I ordered was quite disappointing. The bun was soggy, and the burger itself had a peculiar, off-putting smell with absolutely no discernible taste. It was a far cry from the flavorful beef burger I had hoped for. To accompany the burger, I ordered fries, but they were entirely dried out and frankly, inedible. This added to the overall frustration of the meal. In my opinion, this was a waste of money. Based on this experience, I will not be buying from Backyard Diner again.

09/07/2025: Food is top class friendly staff and very clean.

28/06/2025: Food is not bad, a bit pricey compared to other places in the area. Had to wait very long before getting sereved even when the place wasnt busy.

28/08/2025: We met up with family here, it's great to find a traditional Irish pub with fantastic staff.

10/11/2025: Absolutely disgusting and rude. My god. 2 samosas for 4.5 euros. Got in the guy did not come to me for a few mins even though I was the ONLY ONE THERE. takes my order and asks me to come back even though I the whole restaurant was empty. I left because I wanted to see what he does. I Come back after 15 mins. He hands me a bag and gives me a warm coke. When I ask for a cold one. He laughed and said he doesnt have any. Can you imagine. Rock hard burger bun. Dirty tasting samosas. 0 star. Hope that guys sees this. My god Shameful

01/11/2025: Great food, great service,friendly staff
