This was my first meal in Ireland, and my first experience of Guinness 0.0. We were lucky to be given the last table, as it was Friday night, and there were bus-loads of tourists (for upstairs space). Guinness 0.0 turned out to be too bitter for me, but my husband happily finished my pint, after finishing his own. I was then recommended to try their alcohol-free Chardonnay, which was very nice and more suited my palate. One usually goes to a pub to drink with friends, and wouldn't expect much from the food offerings, but this place obviously puts a lot of thought and effort into their cooking, both in taste and in presentation. Good drinks, good food, and good company, in a loud and happy space - a perfect Irish experience!

A relatively new eatery in Terenure, Eaton Square has been on the to-do list for a while. With a…read morebusy Saturday ahead, we came in early doors at 9 am just as they opened. A steady stream of other punters gradually filled the place, many just getting takeaway coffees. I ordered the full Irish, as you do, while the other half had French toast. A double-shot latte and a strong Americano were also summoned up. My full Irish hit the spot although I still have reservations about baked beans with breakfast, in this case a massive ramekin full of the things. My companion's French toast was massive and, she declared, excellent whilst taking home a goodly section of it for later. And why not. Website and menu indicates even more delights at other times of the day. We will endeavour to sample and report back.

Anyway, we arrived in Ireland today, struggled with the car rental place, got situated in our hotel room, and went out for an Irish stout and a meal. And despite Cian's review, we went here anyway because it had a 4.3 on google. This was our first meal ever in Ireland! My wife ordered fish and chips. She loved it and let me try some. It was excellent. I ordered the ribs. A knife was included with the cutlery. The knife was totally unnecessary. The ribs were tender and you can simply pull it apart. They were delicious. The Guinness was my first ever on tap. Now I see what the big deal is about a Guinness draught. We may need to return to Ireland just for that. Thank you Molloys for getting us off to a great start on our Irish "holiday" (we call it "vacation").

My mate drinks here and he lives in Arklow! Miles away! The reason for its popularity? Well, do does exactly as a pub should do, serves decent pints, in a comfortable well laid out space, with a laid back vibe and huge outdoor, covered, heated smoking area, with its own bar. There is even a cool little snug here as well, which is great if you don't want to be seen with your date! otherwise you will be seen here because as I said everybody drinks here! This place goes off when there is a big sporting event on, especially any Irish or Dublin games of any sport and it is always jumping on the weekends. There is a great food menu too, reasonably priced and eating here is really popular at lunchtimes and on weekends with families. The spring rolls with chili sauce make a great alcohol soak-er upper when you have had one to many vodka sodas, not that that has ever happened to me! Oh and the coolest thing about this place is the fact that it is built on a medieval burial ground! They took the tombstones, but left the bodies!!!

Split over 3 levels, I always like sitting on the middle floor on one of the tables along the side. Upstairs is more restaurant like and a bit more formal. The food really is fantastic, I normally have Chicken Casserole Pie with Mushroom and barley risotto. Its a big meal which is what I like about the place, its really simple well made food in great surroundings. Friends who eat when i'm there also gave the Bangers and Mash with silver Skin Gravy the thumbs up. I also saw someone singing the praises of the Guinness Pie. Besides having a great buzz it never feels like your in a overly fancy or expensive restaurant. Word of mouth, and favorable reviews are really working on this place, its well deservingly packed, especially on weekend nights.

I didn't like the food, my beef and guinness pie had a nice flavour but the meat was really dry and the amount of pastry wasn't very generous, the small side of roasted parsnips and carrots that came with it was nice. Really disappointing for €15.50, not cheap for a pub grub main course I think. Husband didn't enjoy his burger. Our toddler seemed to like his food but he's hardly a gourmand: chicken skewers and chips. Probably won't be back, there are nicer and more reasonably priced places to eat in Terenure.

Ha, well, if your average student is in their 40s then they're taking up most of the bar at lunch time! I had heard good things about the night and as I was in Tallaght village I thought I'd give the food a try as it was freezing cold outside and I was starving... The menu cards looked a wee bit beaten and the menu only had a short selection of pub food. Somewhat dismayed I must have shown it in my face as a charming waiter appeared with the specials which were all tempting but as it was lunch I settled for the homemade soup (beautifully fresh and not overly creamy) with a hearty triple layered toasted sandwich to soak it up with. Being slightly too early to order a beer (€3.50!) I settled for a couple of warming lattes to help defrost my fingers and mind. A fleeting visit, but one I'd gladly do again no matter the weather!

Ive only ever been there to watch football matches. This is the good part of the place as it had 15 screens. So no matter how busy it gets you are not going to miss much which turned out to be a nuisance tonight with such a bad match. They serve food and have a cocktail list and the pub is comfortable. The reason I gave it a bad review is pretty simple. Some of the people in there are not very friendly. There was quite a few pill popping chungfelas throwing bar mats at chungwans across the floor. Scary stuff;-). That was probably harmless fun but as one of my friends said, I wouldnt like to get drunk in here.
