Although a beautiful venue, we had two very different experiences within a few days as we visited…read moretwice since we were staying nearby. The scampi and the Mediterranean salad were both outstanding on our first visit. The service was slow and not very attentive but the place was very busy. On our last day of our holiday, we decided to go back for fish and chips because the scampi had been so good. This time the service varied from indifferent to downright rude (2 different servers) and my husband's fish and chops were fine but mine was mostly batter. Not what we expected at all.

Fantastic meal, ambiance and service!…read more We had reservations for 7 people at 7pm and were greeted and directed to our seats before the last of us had even entered the restaurant! Lots of drinks and buffalo wings were the highlight for me. I had a beef pie that was very good though the pastry was a little tough. The buffalo potatoes were well undercooked but still nice. Those buffalo wings though!! Full transparency I am American so I have eaten a LOT of wings in my life. At least once a week. These were better than those. Than all of em! Just amazing! (As I prepare for a beating from US wing nerds). I love this place. Going on my list of "when in Dublin" (which is often) spots to eat!

The servers were very friendly and attentive. The service was fast as well! I ordered a martini which was a great cocktail, not too sweet with a lot of passion fruit. I had the vegetable soup which came out piping hot and was a great starter. I ordered the chicken sandwich that was on special that day. The chicken was fried perfectly and was tender and juicy. The fries were seasoned well and had a nice bite to them. I ended with the sticky toffee sundae which was huge! The portions here are generous and items could easily be split between two people. They have a very extensive menu, including many vegan options! There is something for everyone here. They have their own parking lot so you don't have to worry about street parking or a parking garage. This was a great stop while I was staying in Naas. I would highly recommend checking this place out.

We visited this bar yesterday as part of Cocktail Week…read more There was a mix up about seating and we ended up on the first floor where a member of staff was extremely rude and made us feel unwelcome. It's a real shame as the hostess on the ground floor was lovely and very helpful. It was clear that whilst trying to be classy and exclusive that the attitude actually being promoted in this bar is stuffy and elitist. Class comes from etiquette and your waitress showed none.

This is a true speakeasy, which is really hard to come by. It's suggested to make a reservation…read morebecause they fill up quickly. We visited twice, and the first time was on a Wednesday night. They were able to accommodate us mid-week without a reservation, but Friday night we made one to come back. There were gobs of people waiting to get in so we're glad we did! The entrance is very non-descript. It's an ugly grey metal door with VCC randomly applied, so if you didn't know what was there it would look industrial. There is a door bell to the left of the door. Ring it a few times and someone will open the door and check you in. With reservations they do make you wait until exactly that time so don't be alarmed. Your table is already selected for you. The inside is loungy and very swanky. Both times we had extremely comfortable chairs. Service is immaculate. Their menu is massive, very well published and explained. Our servers were both able to explain exactly what the cocktail may taste like as some of the combos might blow your mind. I had the Dirty Wizard which sounds odd on based on ingredients but was delicious. I also had the Purple Pearl which was my perfect cocktail. My husband tried a few different whiskey concoctions and he was impressed by all of them. I highly recommend adding VCC to your Dublin itinerary!

Inside are three floors of cozy cocktail lounges with antiques, art, and decor to match the name. The dim lighting added to its speakeasy vibe. Good for relaxing compared to the noisy bars nearby.

Went to Gilbert & Wright in Malahide and have to say I would not be recommending it ever again…read more Buying my first glass of wine I was stared at by a second bar girl who asked me was I going to pay for my wine. I had already paid the girl that had served me?! On my second glass of wine and needed the toilet, while leaving my glass with a little wine in it. On arriving back from toilet my wine was gone. Mentioning this to the lounge boy he politely informed me he would check what had happened. A few minutes later and I get a visit from what this pub calls a 'manager' (name witheld) and apart from him being enraged, he simply denied that my wine was ever taken, then proceeds to shout over me and act in a very confrontational manner, squaring up to me while roaring into my face. This 'manager' guy at Gilbert & Wrights would not even allow me to politely articulate my issue. His default mode was shouting full denial into my face. Not wanting to get barred from here, I felt I had no other option but to forget about my wine and go purchase another glass at the bar. This review is not about a wine glass, it's about Gilbert & Wright's response to my very polite comment about their removal of my drink. For to be treated in this manner by their raging 'manager' is inexcusable and I will not be returning here any time soon. Gilbert & Wright Malahide please get your act together and stop insulting your customers. AVOID Gilbert & Wright Malahide at all costs.. AVOID !

First time in the Kilmardinny, sadly was in Kilmardinny for tea time after my uncles funeral,…read morethough a sad occasion it was an honor to be in his local for a pint and to raise a glass (or two) in his honor. The pub is quite large and can accommodate a large party such as ourselves for the afternoon. Lots of TV's to catch a match and craic to feel at home. We had a lovely veg soup upon our arrival to take the cold from the gravesite out of us and get the warmth back in. The soup was piping hot and light enough to leave room for a lovely tea sandwich or two. And the tea sandwiches were served with crunchy rippled cheese and onion crisps (Hunkey Dorys) that complimented the sandwhiches nicely. The service was a bit scattered but can't slag them considering we were quite a large party all at the same time. Once they got going they were friendly and attentive. The Guinness was nice, the tea and they make a lovely Irish Coffee as well. To you Uncle Paddy, it was an honor to sit in your local and celebrate you!
