The new location has plenty more space: it apparently seats 50 people now. But the menu hasn't changed and the bagels are still as delicious as ever. I have to admit that being originally from Montreal, the land of bagels, I'm sucker for this type of bread. itsa... makes wonderful combinations such as The Californian and The Deluxe. I don't mind paying the 6 Euro because I don't feel cheated when I bite into avocado, mozzarella and basil mayo. They do offer cheaper options like the one where you can get a toasted buttered bagel and a tea/coffee for 3 Euro. Breakfast of champions!

He's worked there more than 20 years and had us thoroughly entranced with his personality and charms. Oh yes, there was food: a vegetarian boxtie and a corned beef boxtie. These were more like stews than a classic boxtie. We polished the plates off and finished with dessert. The toffee pudding was perfect; surprisingly the housemade ice cream sandwich had almost no flavor and was disappointing. The order of three Irish breads was a good appetizer and helped us understand the different styles in the country. The ambiance here is not classic Irish pub, which was good for dinner. !:)

So, I picked The Quay's Irish Restaurant simply to end my tortuous indecisiveness and so glad I did! The staff were AMAZING, and so was everything else. The quality of food and the vibe left me feeling full, satisfied and wanting more! I had the fish and chips with mushy peas, and order of crispy wings and a cappuccino. I have zero complaints and highly recommend if you're here visiting for the first time, or a local who hasn't tried it. Well done, you helped me take home a wonderful memory of my First real meal in country!

This place is so cute and decadent. The atmosphere reminds me of a quaint coffee shop (which, I…read moresuppose, it is). I went here for breakfast and ordered their Irish Porridge with seasonal fruit, cream and toasted almonds along with a blueberry scone (can't visit a tart shop and not order a dessert). The porridge was huge. There was no way that I needed both the porridge and the scone but when in Dublin... It was creamy and had a great thick texture. The scone was light and fluffy and paired well with the butter and jam they give you. My only complaint was that I would have liked a larger cup of jam for my scone but only because it was so good! I would definitely go back and I highly recommend this place.

Daughter got the creamy vegetable soup and chips. She loved it but couldn't even finish half. All the portions were very generous, nobody finished their meal, too bad we couldn't have taken it back to our hotel. Server was great & funny. Love this place.
