    First time here with my parents and we went for an early dinner on a Sunday. Huge car park if you decide to drive. The staff are very friendly and chatty. We sat down in the back in a nice quiet area. The menu has a great selection even though it was condensed. Both of us got the fish and chips, they were tasty. My dad got the roast and it was huge!! The wine was fantastic! The best part was the creme brulee, amazing!!

    Went with my partner and 2yo for dinner. Food was delicious and portions are generous, great value for price. Service was amazing and the environment and decoration of the place is very nice. Perfect to go with the family or watch a match with friends as they have big screens indoors and outdoors. Will definitely come back.

    Lovely place for lunch with a good menu and half servings available for roast of the day. The service is friendly, welcoming and very efficient. Nice atmosphere. The deserts are beautifully designed.

    Best burger I had in Ireland as the other ones I tried were really dry (I’m used to having them medium rare, so finding one well done and nice is a mission) but this one the meat and the sauce were lovely. And best brownie I had in my life so soft and yummy! UPDATE: the chicken burger is absolutely gorgeous as well and I find that the brownies are better if you go for lunch than dinner, maybe cause they’re not that busy… they melt in the mouth brownie and ice cream

    If you like your Irish Coffee lukewarm, with the cream mostly down the side of the glass served by God's gift to society who is "NOT A MAGICIAN AND CANNOT BE EXPECTED TO KEEP IT ALL IN THE GLASS" (barman, Satchel) this is the best place to come. Feel sorry for the rest of the staff who try to their best.

    Went for a small work get together. Early on a Thursday evening around 5. Place was quite, started to fill up after 7. Staff are lovely, so friendly and helpful. The place has changed decor since last there 5+ years ago. Really cosy, but trendy. Got platters and food was amazing. Looks like they are building a new outdoor covered space. Had a look at some of the dinners being served, the food look great. Really looking forward to coming back for dinner. Great bar selection and some fab cocktails 🍸

    As my first experience of Ireland, this pub makes me want to move here for good. The best service I've experienced anywhere in the world. I would highly recommend this establishment. Thank you for the amazing night and a brilliant Guinness.

    Loved their cheesecake, the ambience was amazing on a Saturday evening. Had mixed crowd however, a bit difficult to find a seat. Not sure if they take reservations. Great place to chill with friends.

    I was passing by here after a long hike in Ticknock and there was a big delay on M50 heading back northside so I decided to pop in for some grub!! The place is so gorgeous and cosy. Fires and stoves burning in few corners (and lovely c'mas decorations!) I was greeted by Karen and she was so attentive and welcoming from the moment I arrived until I left. I feel like its rare to find service like this recently and felt she genuinely takes pride in her work. I had the Thai Green Curry and Apple Crumble & Custard with a pot of tea as part of early bird (2 x courses for €25) and it was absolutely delicious!! Would definitely recommend for food/atmosphere/staff especially if you're in the area after a long walk or hike in the beautiful Dublin mountains. Will be back soon!!

    The atmosphere in the pub is relaxed, friendly, and comfortable. They have good food and cold beer. We had spaghetti 🍝, mushroom risotto 🍄 and truffle fries 🍟

    We love this place. The food is always good. The staff are always friendly. We have come out on numerous occasions including having our baby girls christening here. It’s the perfect place for whatever you are looking at. The chicken burger and wings are by far the most superior in Dublin. Yes I said it. We will be spending many more momentous occasions here.

    Highly recommend. We had the best meal here, the food is first class. I highly recommend it. The staff are friendly and helpful. The manager smiled as we came through the door and welcomed us. I'd forgotten how important an interaction like that is for customer loyalty. Well done Sandyford House. Setting a really high standard.

    Sandyford House is a lovely pub with a buzzing atmosphere. The food was beautiful and the service was excellent. The waitress (didn't get her name) was so friendly and had a great sense of humour! First time there, will definitely be back. Thanks so much. 💕

    Of a Friday evening - what do I say? The service was really bad. Took 45 minutes to place orders, took 45 minutes for food to arrive and then again with dessert. The food was fantastic - had the salmon and Eton Mess. The waitresses were lovely and the place was bustling. They did keep checking on us to see if everything was okay and if more drinks were to be ordered. The wait was frustrating though! Also it was quite musty inside and I was a little anxious about covid but I guess we're not supposed to think about that anymore! Or stay at home if that's a concern.

    Food was good but nothing exceptional (a bit pricey too), however the cold pints and the fantastic dessert (apple crumble) are something to make me go back again.

  • 5/5 David B. 11 months ago on Google
    Food was very good, limited menu tho. Friendly atmosphere, well laid out inside. Staff was brilliant, helpful, chatty and constantly checking your glass didn't run empty. Highly recommended for a great evening out❤️👍

  • 4/5 Gee E. 4 months ago on Google
    On the continued tour of carveries of Dublin, we had been recommended Sandyford House, over all the portions are insanely big (some would love that), but it is looooooots of potatoes (mostly mash) and no other veg, which is a shame. The meat was good and I followed the waitresses recommendation with the roast of the day. Overall a nice carvery, Guinness was fine enough too. I can imagine this place can get super busy, so I'd recommend booking ahead of time.

    We didn't book so were lucky to get a table. Food was delicious. I had fish and chips - the fish was a good size and the tartare sauce was lovely and creamy. Had brownie for pud which was tasty too, not stodgy like you get in some pubs. They have local musicians playing a trad session on Thursdays.

  • 4/5 Dee K. 3 months ago on Google New
    Service was excellent. The menu seems to have less choice than previously this could be due to the new concept at the front that has a different menu. Battered fish was quiet salty and desserts disappointing, especially the lemon cheesecake, but the wings and fries were delicious. Also, no Christmas turkey and ham option available at Christmas seemed a bit unusual.

    Plenty of tables and very good ambience there is an outdoor seating area too. There are multiple bar taps across the central island. The service was very good and so were the staff. That is a car park on the side of the pub house. Great place to meet friends and spend time. The pub closes at 12:00 a.m..

👍 Nice asian restaurant located upstairs of a shop. As soon as we entered the place we ve been seated quickly. We seated close to the window and was sunny, great view! We ordered poke, sushis and guiozas. They arrived really fast, about 15 mins after we ordered. Sushi was delicious, well made and rice...
