Worst bouncers. Live above this bar. I’m 30 years old and tried to enter the bar at 1:45 am. I couldn’t sleep because of noise so thought I’d at least have a beer. The bouncers refused to let me in and said they were closing shortly. I explained we lived upstairs and know they stay open until 3am every night. Other locals tried to help us gain entrance but let other people in and not me. The locals tried again to help me in and ultimately said bouncers were on power trips and there was nothing we could do. I went upstairs and didn’t fall asleep until 3:30am because of noise. People say Irish people are friendly and its been nothing been false our whole trip and I’ve spend my whole life in the restaurant/bar industry. Worst experience.

Amazing staff, drinks, venue and music. Such a fun spot for a drink and some pool. Lovely cocktails. Cool shots. Staff are always so fun and seem like they really love their job! Great vibes all round.

Boucer refused my friend entry despite us having a table booked saying they were full. Be careful ordering drinks if you have allergies, some of the cocktails came with egg whites despite it not being listed in the ingredients. Otherwise lovely spot, great staff, good tunes.

Absolutely terrible service. We were sat, only two of us, and waited for ages. Were absolutely starving. Really looking forward to the pizza and cocktails, and no one came to serve us for 20 minutes. Everyome kept walking past us as we clearly were trying to get someones attention. By the time we finally got ahold of someone, they told me the kitchen was closed. I said well we have been seated waiting since way before it closed and are extemely hungry and have been waiting. Were extremely rude and unhelpful. Will not be returning.

Really great pizza bar near Temple Bar. We had the vegan 20" sharer 🤘

Just a bad place , so many better places in dublin.

Excellent staff and excellent service from the doorman Keith, to (Tom Cruise wishing he was Ian) Jackie, Sam and Roberto and all whom I didn't catch their name... the atmosphere was awesome, lovely vibe... great night so good I went back again and plan to in the future

Plenty of things to do with pool tables, arcade games and other activities in the bar. Good range of cocktails and friendly service from the bar staff. The doorman was also very nice!

Amazing cocktails, shots, and the place was so nice. all staff amazing, specialy a guy called Adam, he has really nice vibes and amazing service!! I will come back really soon!

Trendy bar, near to Temple Bar area, without the tourist prices. Great atmosphere for a quiter drink while still keeping a youthful scene. Top class staff

Shots are lovely and definitely take note of their likely to get drunk scale. I underestimated to rating and drank a few too many. Still had a blast but jaysus those shots are lethal

It's a great place to have a drink and listen to good music while being very cheap as well.

Good spot for a pint and pool in city centre which is hard to find. The nachos were also very good would go back!

Great late bar in the city centre. The door staff are absolutely top of their game. The bar staff are friendly and fast and can tell that they enjoy what they do and the prices aren’t the worst but what you expect as a late bar. Great service. Great bar 👍

A very vibey bar. Good (and very loud) music. The drinks and cocktails are a bit too expensive i’d say. But other than that i loved the creativity of the names of the drinks. A real highlight lol

Went there with a few friends (booked a table beforehand). At first we had quite a good time, then a waitress came up to us & asked us to leave (apparently other people were waiting for a free table). She said we could be back again at 10... Quite a bad service (from the waitress), especially because we booked a table in advance. Wouldn't recommend it.

Pizza was nice, but female manager with dreads was very rude to all customer, unsure how she has a public facing job with an attitude like hers!? My friend booked for 13 people, was given 2 tables for 2 people, we asked if we could relocate downstairs which was semi empty, she said she would check, never came back and then told us the venue was booked from 8pm and we had to leave before then, despite her never mentioning when booking, only positive was the pizza but could get simular in numerous places and have a much better experience! Toilets were disgusting and falling apart, wont be back

Heard alot of good reports about this place. But unfortunately the bouncer at door was extremely rude when entering asking questions like i was 18 . I taught that the guy was quite brainless and just thrived off authority. I went in for one drink with my friend and then he asked me to leave and when I asked why he said I don't have to give a reason. So then I asked to speak to the manager and of course he told me he was the manager. I'll never step foot in that place again until get new doormen. Pity was nice bar inside😕

The decorations is super traditional and big, location is amazing, was super well treated, lovely people work there

Best pizza ive had in years

Cracking bar! Great atmosphere, great music, was there on a Friday night bopping to the spice girls. Reasonably priced drinks. Would definitely go back.

Surprisingly good Guinness. The staff member who looked after us was really nice but not all staff as diligent. Bathrooms were a bit of a disgrace though. Surely, the business can do better.

Nasty manager. She was rude... It's a graffiti themed bar, but got some nonsense for taking photos of the staff t-shirt (I'm a fan of the teeshirt graffiti artist) from a very worked up manager. She was ultra ultra rude, not a pleasant individual

I absolutely loved the place drinks where top class! Pizza was delicious and came so quickly, after we ordered. Staff was super friendly. Can’t wait in till I can go back again soon!

We only had drinks here but the cocktails were really good and not that expensive compared to other places in Dublin. It was a great experience and we also got to play pool! We also got there when it opened so it was nkt that busy!

The pizza is just as massive as advertised and the cocktails are good, but the service is average at best.

Lovely little vibe in RIOT. Cocktails and shots are fab. We got pizza and there was a mix up with the toppings. Bar tender gave us some free shots to make up for it, which was beyond what I expected. Will definitely be back.

Had the mother clucker pizza here- was spicy. The Guinness was fine as always. Pretty hospitable staff- thanks to *uck, who was our host. The billiards table was a nice attraction downstairs.

Charming two-story cozy pub! Despite only stopping by for a few drinks, the experience was delightful, and we had a great time. The service was also very quick

Nice bar, good prices, my wife had a cocktail which she said was excellent. Young crowd 20 to 30, so not really my age group 50 something.

Cool decorations, friendly staff, nice cocktail's menu and great location.

Lovely place and very nice staff, has a downstairs and upstairs with a pool table too, and good catchy music playing.Drink was very nice, food was lovely also. Defo recommend.

Great little dive bar on the quays. Unique and tasty cocktails and shots! Definitely worth a stop into 👍

Cool little trendy spot near Temple Bar area. They have a tasty version of the Erin Rose’s Frozen Irish Coffee.

I love this place! Food is great, and staff even better... Stepan the bartender is a star, me and my husband didn't know what to order and he made incredible cocktails! He got 2 regulars, for sure!

The best place and the largest pizza 😂❤️

I'm giving 5 because they serving drinks until exactly 2am 😁 ,but seriously- beautiful and very kind women on the bar.

I walked in and they wouldn't give me a drink. They told me I already had enough and gave me a water. They were dead Riot. Appreciate it.

Having spent the day exploring Dublin, this was the perfect spot to have a few beers and play pool! All the staff were amazing, and the music selection was brilliant. Will definitely be heading back before our trip is over!!

Good environment e good music.

Really nice spot with pool tables and great pizza (the pic doesn’t do justice for the size of it). Drinks wise we only had pints so can’t comment on the cocktails. Staff were lovely and there was table service for the majority of the night. When that ended they came around and let us know. Definitely worth a visit. Only problem is there’s only one ladies loo so the queue can be a bit long at times.

It's a place to feel at home. Even though it's a typical pub, I was super well treated. Thanks bonkers for the hospitality. I came for a beer and stayed for more. The decoration is super traditional and super big. Also the location is amazing, next to where I'm staying at.

This was my favorite pub in all of Dublin. Make reservations if you go on a Friday or Saturday or you won't get in until after 10pm. I wouldn't call it "trendy", but it's definitely popular. Great cocktails and great 90's music. Definitely save time for this place.

Great drinks

It was so much fun!

the staff were really rude to us and the games ? there were like 6 games for 80 people. i feel metal deficient for going to this place

a great place, good music and a great variety of beers. very good .

Horrible service in this pub. My bf, a friend and myself arrived here last night looking for food and drinks. The hostess welcomed us very nicely and gave us advice about what we could eat. After ordering food she never came back to us to ask what we wanted for drinks. She was busy messing with some guys at the pool table and they were ordering drinks from the manager at the bar. My friend went over to the hostess and asked her for shots as well as if we could change to a different table. We felt uncomfortable with the guys at the pool, they kept making weird noises. Anyways we change sits and got a lovely pizza. As we ordered shots obviously we finished them before eating the pizza. While eating/finishing the pizza none of the staff came over to ask if we were ok, if we needed more drinks and/or the bill... When we finished the pizza, we wanted to leave. We tried to get the attention of staff several times and after 20 minutes we decided to approach the bar to pay our bill and leave. While the bartender was preparing our bill, the manager came over and ask us WHY WE WERE THERE? In a very rude way. The manager never spoke first to the bartender to see what we needed. My friend said that we wanted to pay the bill. He commanded us to go back to our sits and that he'll bring the over. He brought the bill, I told him that it was VERY RUDE the way he spoke to us and that he could have asked us in a nicer manner if we were ok or the bartender, the reason that we approach the bar was because none of the floor staff were doing their jobs correctly. He started giving out to us saying that we couldn't be at the bar due to covid19 restrictions and that everyone in Ireland knew that, kinda telling us that we were stupid if we didn't know.... I told him that I actually didn't know exactly which health procedures all the pubs had and it was his job to make sure that staff are trained correctly and that customers aren't waiting at their tables for prolonged periods with not service, if it was unacceptable for customers to be waiting that long for help and also for management to speak in that manner. The bar was half empty with clear breaches of Covid19 constantly happening as I'm sure the CCTV will show, especially around the pool table. The manager should be more concerned with this over customers trying to pay their bill at the bar due to no table service. I rather to go to a pub with average food but outstanding service than coming back here.

the best bar ever!

Great during restrictions and ordinarily

Great dive bar with good drinks and Pizza

Good drinks and nice staff

It's was fascinating! The atmosphere is calm and relaxing and the live music is stunning also

Nice place, good atmosphere. Lots of different drinks Offers

Best bar in Dublin. Great drinks especially the cocktails and great staff

Bring back Gypsy Rose ;( . Have tried this place a few times and I just can't take to it. Prices are extortionate and the crowd is too varied. Don't feel comfortable here and the music isn't to everyone's taste at all.

Fantastic nights out both up and down stairs, pool tables arcade machines cocktails tou just cant go wrong and the staff are excellent there always fun to chat with

Really nice atmosphere, boyfriend spilled a pint everywhere and they were so chill about it and very friendly. "Ro" was very friendly and welcoming. Overall very clean and relaxing with really nice decor

Nice music, good Guinness, price like the area of temple bar and not really crowded on Friday early evening. Amazing place to go

Retro establishment. Every time been there,always amazing vibe. Bartenders are one of the Best in Dublin town. Be respectfull and you be treated like V.I.P.

Had an amazing time at the basement playing pool and brick-sized jenga lol

I love riot. I'll always be there

I'm on fire!

Great to place drink a Hop House 13 Lager

Great staff

Nice place always packed

Kept getting ingnored in the queue. I can understand if bartenders are stressed. 2 of the 3 bartenders just didn't like my face obviously. Music there is good.

Some unbelievable cocktail menu

Literally my favorite hangout spot in Dublin, banging tunes, tasty cocktails, creamy pints, NY style pizza and the soundest crew to ever work behind a bar. There's a reason I come here several times a week, take it from a bartender, you don't want to pass this spot by.

Cool bar. Grand Guinness.

Amazingly cool place for beers and pool!

Nice pub

Not really for the over 50s 😅

Nice location by the river, not to many People, Good music and polite staff.

Great bar staff and great atmosphere. Great for any kind of night you're looking for.

Busy with the cities bartenders

Cool find in Dublin for drinks in a chill atmosphere. The drinks selection I very good, especially the cocktails. The music is great and staff was very nice when we were there. The pizzas are just ok but the place doesn't really advertise as a spot for dinner so it's just more of a snack with your beer. So overall it's great at what it is, a funky music bar with an edge.
