    Good pub, but no bicycle parking even though it's just beside one of the biggest cycling routes in Dublin. Did not feel welcome as a cyclist. Edit: Attached a picture of the bike park suggested by the owner (a rusty metal pole at the side of the road). Cyclists are the same paying customers as motorists, but there is no place for them at the huge car park (picture for reference as well, both images from Street View). Come on, a couple of basic bike racks are not that expensive!

    Great staff,nice drinks. Unable to get the taps to work in the toilet - think they work by sensor - either they don't work or they require a detailed knowledge of these particular taps. Very poor.

    This restaurant as well as the pub is simply outstanding. I go often because I live a few meters from it. The service is nice, you can sometimes listen to music, you can relax in peace. Kind people.

    Fabulous lamb shank with all the trimmings, food was piping hot x 4 people ( steaks & cod ) The desserts were just to die for.... the service was brilliant despite how busy it was & the staff are lovely. Recommend booking for a lunchtime sitting. Will definitely be there again in the near future.

    Would not recommend for afters of a funeral. Sandwiches weren't fresh and the amount put out was very little. Tea was cold and was provided without milk. Staff were dismissive. Very disrespectful to a family in mourning.

  • 5/5 Joseph C. 1 year ago on Google
    Great pub with nice helpful staff. My first time in the pub. The food was finished. The staff then brought out a big plate of food from a party upstairs.

    3 of us went in for lunch midweek. The food was delicious and had big servings. Nice atmosphere and good service.

  • 5/5 Adrian G. 8 months ago on Google
    One of the best restaurants in Dublin! Honestly we were amazed at just how good the food was. It's a little pricey, at near London prices, but the portions are generous, the food is fresh and tasty and comes relatively quickly after ordering. A relatively small menu means they can focus on perfecting the dishes on offer and it shows. At no point were we dissapointed with anything we ordered. Would highly recommend 👌

  • 5/5 John S. 1 year ago on Google
    Met friends here for lunch, staff were very friendly and the service was great. Portions great size. Starters were all great and main meal was very tasty 😋

  • 5/5 Trish L. 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely local spot. Fresh, delicious food with daily specials. Corned beef on Fridays particularly good. Lovely staff. A favourite place of ours. Gets busy at times, so always worth booking.

  • 5/5 Paul C. 10 months ago on Google
    Best hidden gem in North Dublin. Guinness in the bar is smashing and as for the food, order a large wings and check out the value for money. Not just the value but the wings have always been cooked to perfection

  • 4/5 John M. 10 months ago on Google
    A good food pub, but a bit noisy. Thanks Paul, maybe I should have explained a more clearly. I was mainly referring to several occasions I went with friends for a chat and a drink. There was a music session going on. Very noisy and disruptive, and not so musical. It seemed to be a spontaneous group that got louder as the evening went on. Anyhow, I haven't seen them for awhile.

  • 5/5 Bettany R. 1 year ago on Google
    When we arrived at 1pm it was very busy but we we're seated promptly. Food delicious. I had garlic mushrooms they were delicious though it was such a large portion I could not do justice to my fish and chips which were also delicious. Good menu. The toilets spotless. Well worth a visit.

  • 5/5 sheila d. 10 months ago on Google
    Amazing local pub great service and fish n chips like no other

  • 5/5 Erika M. 10 months ago on Google
    The fish and chips were so delicious! My husband got the special, which was the pan-fried sea bass. He said it was really good! The service was great, and everyone was friendly. There is a free parking lot, and they have a kids menu and highchairs. Good place for a pint! Highly recommend.

    Excellent service. We had a late lunch. I had a lamb shank with mash and a lovely sauce with vegetables. Also one of our party had lemon sole and fish cakes. We were served in the bar as the lounge was busy. A roaring stove fire made everything cosy. Great service will be back.

  • 5/5 Sharon Mc C. 1 year ago on Google
    We went for a drink 2 weeks ago to celebrate our son's Graduation and we were blown away by the service we received. We all decided to eat without having a booking and even though there were 12 of us, the staff fully accommodated us and we had a delicious meal. The pub was ao busy yet we received amazing service. This is now our designated pub for upcoming family celebrations.
