Carberry's looks like a standard small village pub from the outside. Looks are deceiving though…read more Inside, it's a beautifully restored bar, with stone walls and exposed wooden beams in the roof. It's not the biggest pub, but that's one of it's charms. Once a few people are there, the atmosphere turns into a party. There's a large covered smoking area out the back, with a bar in the corner and a stage at the back where bands play when the weather is good. They have the standard selection of beer, plus three taps from local craft brewery Brú. The IPA is rather tasty!

I cannot believe how large this pub is inside! We stopped by after seeing it on a "Traditional Pubs…read moreof Ireland" poster, and because my grandfather's name was James Griffin. The atmosphere was perfect! It was early Sunday morning, and there were already a few locals inside having their morning beer and reading the newspaper. I did some exploring because it looks so small on the outside, but you get in, and it just keeps going and going. Looks like they get large crowds during the evenings, and even offer lots of live music and DJs. The bartender was friendly.

What can I say besides fabulous! Trim is off the beaten path from Dublin, but definitely on the map…read morewhen it comes to historical must-sees while you're in Ireland! So when you pass thru Trim to see the Castle, call in to this gorgeous pub. When you walk in, it is old school classic pub with beautiful woodwork and bar. From there, you can go in the cozy fireplace room that feels and looks great and leads to another cozy area to meet and be with friends. If you like patios, you're at the right place! Step out back and find a covered & climate controlled patio that is huge! They have a large smoking patio area (you can't smoke inside in Ireland either). Thru the patio, you can see a big events room that you can host a reception, party, meeting, whatever. It's been a few months since my last visit, but I've heard they have a new beer garden too! Oh yes, the drinks...the Guinness is perfect. You can get almost any tasty beverage here from a nice bartender. The owner is hands-on and always working to keep this place top notch.

The Grasshopper Inn is one of the nicer pubs around Clonee & Blanchardstown with a good Carvery and…read moregreat outdoors space. On a sunny Sunday afternoon it is the ideal place to relax, have a pint in the sunshine and get some good mummy style dinner from the Carvery. My fav is the roast beef with tons of mash and cabbage. If you are not in the mood for Carvery, they also offer Bar food. The Sandwiches are nice (especially the trippel decker Club Sandwich) but the other dishes on the menu are nothing extraordinary and something on the slightly bland site. If you are in the mood for a pint on a sunny day and look for a pub with great outdoors space, this is where you should go if you are near Clonee.

Barbecue burger with smoky bacon was beautiful, came with a lovely crunchy salad and humongous home made thick cut chips. The wife had a 7 oz sirloin steak which came on the stone and was lovely as well. My little one had spaghetti bolognaise, a fruit juice and ice cream for desert all for €6.50 which I thought was very good value. Will be going back for sure.

Option 1 : chased off by guard dog. Option 2 : walked in and literally every head in the bar swivelled to give me the evil eye. ABORT. Option 3 : Best option! So Gilna's kinda won by default, but it turns out you'll find friendly staff, a warming fire in winter, plenty of room for the nippers to run around and a reasonably well stocked off-license if you want to keep the party going. The auld lad and I ordered a bottle of Henrick's from said take out and got MAD weird looks from the young fella though. What? It's Gin! Men can drink gin too, right?

I would normally have the chicken stirfry with noodles which is lovely. There chicken curry and chicken fajita are also amazing.

Portions are always huge and if you have room after mains they have a wide selection of deserts. All staff are really very nice and i would rate this place 10 out of 10. Keep up the good work guys
