    Loads of cocktails options in addition to usual bar menu. The atmosphere is quite casual and makes it a nice place to catch up friends over a few drinks. They have loads of seating space.

    Have always loved this bar but recently had the most delicious brunch there. The hollandaise was superb and the tacos super tasty. I really want to go back for all the amazing looking cocktails!! I was really impressed with their newly renovated outdoor area very cool! Staff as always super friendly and helpful!

    Love this place. Great staff and service. A little too busy during busy times but wonderful the rest of the time. Smoking area is one of my favourite in town. Great clientele.

    First it is important to establish that I went there many times five years ago, so changes were inevitable. As such it is still a lovely bar while becoming more "modern" or "stylish" than most of the bars and pubs in Dublin. While I still miss the old charme of a bar which felt like it was just some guys flat it is still nice in its own way. If you want to get some drinks in an more alternative looking place look no further than this.

    The whole place is nice and the cocktails were delicious but a little pricey.

    This used to be our favourite bar in Dublin. Used to be busy both inside and outside with a great atmosphere. Now you have to wait to be seated when you go in. Strangest policy ever for a bar. Also because you can go to the bar, you’re completely dependent on the staff and unfortunately all the comments are true here re. Speed of service. Guys, no idea why you messed with a (normal) format that worked so well, we won’t be going back or recommending until you come to your senses!

    My fav pub in Dublin. Even now with all of the restrictions the place, food, drinks and staff are amazing. I’ve been there last week with some friends to have dinner and I think was the manager who came to our table some times and he made us feel so comfortable and he is very kind and professional. Brazilian girl waiter so helpful and friendly. Nice price as well for the food.

    One of my favourites bars in Dublin! The atmosphere is amazing, especially in the “outside” terrace. The staff is friendly and they recognise you if you go several times. The food and cocktails are good. It’s well furnished, not too hot, not too cold. The only disadvantage would be the price of the cocktails (12€), and you will get mostly ice but that’s the case everywhere anyway.

    I love finding new venues that have ripped up the rule book and tried something new. This bar certainly does that. Has a slight feel of a speakeasy bar without the need to find it hidden behind some fridge door. It’s somebody’s house. Sofas, chairs and a TV (from the 90s) were in the room we frequented, bulbs painted to bring the glow down creating a cool atmosphere. A real mix of people came and went whilst we chatted away like we’d been coming here for years. Staff were great and drinks selection plentiful. Embrace the venue, suck in the atmosphere and you’ll love it as much as we did.

    The Bar With No Name is always a great spot for an amazing cocktail. Bar is usually buzzing with big crowds of people. Hit them up on this occasion for some outdoor dinning and a few drinks, and both food & drink where of high quality. Some free friendly staff and tasty drinks will having myself and my partner coming back time and time again.

    Absolutely brilliant cocktail bar that has exceeded expectations every time. Drinks and ambiance are fabulous and the staff (John in particular) are so lovely and attentive. Couldn’t be nicer!

    I was looking for bars with rooftops in the city center, found this one and what a nice surprise! It is not easy to find it because you need to go to the first floor, but when you enter the place you love it! It is really different from the normal pubs in Ireland. Nice place to have drink in the afternoon or to go out with friends. The cocktails are nice but a bit expensive. But I really enjoyed this place! Truly recommend.

    I went there today for brunch and had a very bad experience. We were quite hungry, so when we saw the place with only one table occupied we thought we would be served quickly, but it took a while for the waitress to come to us. After we order, it took nearly one hour for the food be served. My scrambled eggs was overcooked. The bread tasted like it wasn't fresh, quite hard and dry. My boyfriends omelette which was supposed to be with veggies lacked the vegetables, was served with no toast and was also overcooked.. everything was definitely overpriced for the quality of food and service. Such a disappointing experience, we left there and had to go to a coffee shop to have something else.

  • 5/5 Isabelle L. 1 year ago on Google
    Cocktails are so so good I tryed 4 different cocktails . The staff from the bar and the staff who took the orders are so nice . The best place to hang out, thank you all

  • 3/5 Samantha J. 2 years ago on Google
    Arrived and it looked very busy got seated very quick. Waited 20mins before a server even looked in our direction had to ask if we could order drinks. The girl told us she was only a runner and couldn't take our order only to find out that one girl was covering the whole outdoor area which is very unfair. The girl who originally was the runner looked after us in the end and had to take orders. Couldn't fault her and the food was amazing. More staff needed

  • 5/5 James M. 1 year ago on Google
    I keep coming back. Great vibes here. High quality drink serving (perfect pints every time) and relaxed atmosphere always. I love taking people here who don't know what to expect!

  • 1/5 Joe M. 1 year ago on Google
    Came here last week with our staff night out . Initially shown to our area . One staff member very attentive took all our drinks orders but when we said we were paying seperate it all went wrong. Firstly everyone got charged a service charge which for me was 1.50 on a pint . Then another server came saying a round was not paid for and got quite aggressive and rude Eventually two staff members paid to get rid of server. I went to other server and talked to them about situation and dis satisfaction with it . He said he'd get line manager to come talk with us .... last we saw of anyone . Bar was opened . We won't be returning.

  • 5/5 Hanna B. 1 year ago on Google
    This spot is absolutely increidble. The cocktails were phenomenal and the vibes were exactly what my husband and I needed after a week of exploring Ireland. It is intimate, tucked away enough to make it feel "exclusive," and not bombarded with tourists. The bartenders did a wonderful job at curating the ideal experience and we will absolutely return!

  • 5/5 Narayani M. 2 years ago on Google
    Good service, fantastic food and drinks. Would really recommend going! And their "outdoor" terrace has a roof covering so can go in any weather which relieves some stress!

  • 2/5 Curbish F. 1 year ago on Google
    Booked a table for a group of our friends. No more than 5 minutes after sitting down the lights were turned off and the music was turned up, it too loud for a conversation. An hour went by and it was from 20% capacity to 120%. Our table was overrun by people standing, basically on top of us. Not the atmosphere we were after. What seemed like a bar ended up feeling like a nightclub. Drinks were nice and staff were great, probably won't be back though

  • 5/5 Jason O G. 1 year ago on Google
    Great! But get there early. If you show up at 9pm on the weekend, forget about get a sit. Also, this is the home of the funniest bouncer in Dublin.

  • 4/5 E H. 7 months ago on Google
    Nice atmosphere and attached the my hotel but. Way more expensive than equivalent drinks in the area and I am not sure of the quality of the spirits in the cocktails as everything we ordered came from the plastic bottles behind the bar Nice vibe but will look elsewhere. One for the tourists from the usa

  • 5/5 Rachel M. 7 months ago on Google
    Waited for a bit at the bar but the bartenders will spend their time to make sure you’re happy and you’re drinks are right. Low key and amazing once you figure out that you have to go upstairs to get inside. The vibe here is unbeatable

  • 2/5 Gearóid Ó M. 6 months ago on Google
    We ordered 2 negronis… so they made one and split it in two (€27 for 90 ml is quite steep!) and topped them with dried out, foul-smelling pieces of orange. We complained… the barmaid said they were freshly sliced that morning. Her colleague admitted they weren’t, but she was quickly silenced and we were shrugged away. A pity, it used to be such an amazing bar but it seems to have slipped.

  • 5/5 YADHAVAN J. 3 years ago on Google
    Contemporary place bustling with energy and people. As the name goes you can identify bar only with the snail cult out. The music is quite loud at times but would definitely recommend if you want to hangout and spend a good evening with friends..

  • 4/5 Amandine B. 5 years ago on Google
    Very nice place to go with friends for cocktails. The cocktails are really nice and are made just in front of you.

    Great bar day or night Great staff and good tunes on the weekends notuch more you can ask from a place would recommend from a small party to a big group space for all

  • 5/5 Marc Oliver N. 4 years ago on Google
    I love this bar which you only find at a 2nd glance. Feels like coming at home to a room mates party. One of my favorite bars in Dublin.

  • 3/5 Ina J. 3 years ago on Google
    Nice service, beautiful location, food was ok-nice nice choice, but very small portions for the price. Service fee of 12.5% of which we weren’t aware of until the end, came surprisingly on top

  • 2/5 tanmay n. 3 years ago on Google
    Good Service and drinks, the guinness and dark chocolate cheesecake didn't have any trace of guinness or dark chocolate..

  • 1/5 Adela M. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Horrible ! The waiters were very friendly and polite but the amount of the dishes that although they are not expensive 1–15 euros is totally ridiculous, we ordered risotto and I am not lying when saying that it did not occupy a finger of the plate also they brought us 3 beers somewhat similar to the Hineken when we had asked for 3 paulaners and we had to say they will replace it. We would never eat dinner there again we felt ripped off. (Original) Horrible ! Los camareros muy simpáticos y educados pero la cantidad de los platos que aunque no son caros 1–15 euros es totalmente ridícula, pedimos risotto y no miento al decir que no ocupaba ni un dedo del plato ademas nos trajeron 3 cervezas algo parecidas a la Hineken cuando habíamos pedido 3 paulaner y tuvimos que decir que nos la cambiarán. Jamás volvería a cenar allí nos sentimos estafadas.

  • 4/5 Gideon M. 3 years ago on Google
    Poor service, decent cocktails. A bit over priced for what's on offer.

    Great post lockdown experience, fantastic drinks, solid, friendly service, and great food too. Definitely have made great work with the outdoor area!

  • 3/5 Ciara B. 2 years ago on Google
    Had a booking and had to wait 15 mins past our time before we got seated. Cocktails were nice and atmosphere was good but it took us 35 minutes to get our last round and we were rushed out at 11:30

  • 5/5 Vanusa R. 2 years ago on Google
    It has become one of my favorite places to grab a cocktail or two, amazing food. A beautiful place with a great atmosphere and a super friendly staff, the Brazilian girl with tattoos she was so lovely, kind. I will definitely come back.

  • 5/5 Sibylle M. 2 years ago on Google
    Great setting and environment ! really good food and cocktails

  • 5/5 Srinivasan N. 3 years ago on Google
    Just the regular place with the gang . Amazing drinks all the time . If there were some barbecue and kebabs to eat , could finish the entire meal for dinner there .

  • 1/5 Adam S. 2 years ago on Google
    Went here for brunch thinking the menu and photos looked amazing. Was very disappointed. The food was absolutely shocking. Burger and chips was pretty much €20 and was borderline inedible. Skinny fries so overcooked the potato inside had turned rock solid. The "crispy bacon" stated on the menu looked like it had never been cooked and the onion ring in the burger was so overcooked it would break a tooth. The chicken tacos looked good on first inspection but the chicken was rock solid in places, definitely cooked the day before then tossed in some sauce. The only saving grace was the cocktails which were nice but definitely not worth the €13 each we paid. Definitely nicer places to eat at a far better price.

    Really good cocktails. Food was missing flavour and just a big miss. Staff always so happy and helpful.

👍👍 Fantastic indoor entertainment venue in Dublin that holds up to 13,000 people. It's really well marshalled and queueing is kept to a minimum for drinks, food, merchandise and toilets. If you find the ground floor queues start to grow, just go upstairs for smaller queues. There's great sound and visi...
