Dall'Italiano Restaurant Glasnevin
Italian restaurant
πŸ‘πŸ‘ Amazing food and very authentic. Chef personally took the order and even suggested us a wine to go with it. Had an absolutely delicious lunch on my birthday. Really appreciate the way chef chooses quality of ingredients he uses, that makes the food unique.

Dublin Bay Vets
Veterinarian
πŸ‘πŸ‘ I had my dog booked in with Dublin Bay to be spayed and I was very nervous as my girl is 6 so was unsure of her with the anaesthetic and that. The guys at Dublin bay really put my nerves at ease with all the reassurance and sent me a text message the minute her surgery was over to let me know how it...

Legit Coffee Co
Coffee shop
πŸ‘πŸ‘ They have filtered drip coffee here! Hard to find in Dublin. No V60, but they will make you a fresh batch brew (machine) on the spot if you can wait a few extra minutes. It will be worth it. They use high end beans. Mine was a Costa Rica with tasting notes of stone fruit lime and berries.

Bang Bang
Deli
πŸ‘πŸ‘ Super cool hidden gem!! Friendly staff, good music and inclusive selection of food. Only downsides are the small sitting area so you might not find a seat (the place is very tiny) and that it's a bit pricey, but considering how cool it is I think it's worth it!

V-Face
Vegan restaurant
🫀 To put it lightly, V-Face was deeply disappointing. As someone who enjoys good vegan food, I was a bit thrown off by just how bad this place turned out to be. My meal there was terrible, starting with a confusingly bad chocolate shake that tasted like an old bottle of off-brand chocolate syrup squee...
