Stopped in for lunch during a work trip. Baked cod was solid, properly cooked and the &euro;16.50 price felt fair for the portion. Pint was decent too. Service kept it simple, checked in once, no fuss. Place was busy but not chaotic. Wouldn&#39;t go out of my way, but if you&#39;re nearby and want straightforward pub food, it does the job.

Lovely spot with a proper view of the city. Modern vibe, decent for a quiet drink. Bar area was nice, not too crowded when I popped in.

The full Irish was decent but honestly a bit too dressed up for what I&#39;d normally expect. Give me a proper fry, not something that looks like it belongs on a tasting menu. That said, the staff were sound and the coffee was grand. Would&#39;ve loved a pint of stout to wash it down, but the place felt more like a wine bar kind of vibe.

The hot pot here is a decent shout if you&#39;re not familiar with it yet&mdash;loads of options and you get to mix your own sauce. I went for a spicy broth and paired it with a cold beer, which worked a treat. Place was packed, but they managed to seat our group without too much hassle. Service was a bit stretched, though.

The sticky toffee pudding was the standout&mdash;proper nostalgic, like something my mum would&rsquo;ve made on a Sunday. Set menu at &euro;38, and honestly for the quality of that dessert alone I felt it was decent value. Portion could&rsquo;ve been a bit bigger though.

The pizzas here are proper good - that margherita was spot on. Wine list is huge too and won&#39;t break the bank. Place is roomy enough for a big group.

Coffee was decent, pastries cheap and fresh. Can&#39;t complain for the price. 👍Walked in on a Tuesday morning, grabbed a flat white and a croissant. Nothing fancy but did the job. Pastry case looked decent too. Fine if you&#39;re in the area and need a quick fix without spending a fortune.

The laksa here is the reason I keep coming back. Rich broth, proper heat, and the noodles hold up well. Tried the pad thai once too, decent but not on the same level. Lunch menu covers a lot of ground, but honestly I just stick to the Malaysian stuff now.

Came here for a birthday dinner and honestly the staff made it. So attentive without hovering, even brought out a little dessert with a candle. Cocktails were properly strong too, which I appreciated. Food was solid &mdash; the steak came exactly as asked. Place has a nice buzz, not too loud to talk. Would go back.

The Pad Thai and sweet chilli chicken were proper tasty, big portions too. Staff were sound and didn&#39;t keep us waiting. Wouldn&#39;t mind going back.

Popped in for a quick sushi fix and the fish was properly fresh. Loads of options on the menu which is handy. Prices are fair for what you get. Good spot if you&#39;re nearby. 🍣

Staff were friendly enough and service was quick, handy if you&#39;re heading for a train at Connolly. Chicken snack box did the job, nothing fancy but decent.

Came for the bottomless brunch and honestly the service was the highlight. Glasses never sat empty for more than a minute. The food was decent too, though I wasn&#39;t expecting much from a brunch menu. My mimosa was properly chilled and they didn&#39;t skimp on the bubbly. Nice spot if you&#39;re in the area and want a relaxed afternoon.

Found this spot in Harold&#39;s Cross by accident and honestly it&#39;s a gem. Sunday lunch was proper tasty, loads of flavour. Wine by the glass had a good few options too. Bit of a splurge but worth it for a catch-up with the girls. 🍷

The burrito was spot on and the michelada paired perfectly with it. Staff were really welcoming too, made it easy to chill there with friends.

I had the fillet steak and it was cooked to perfection, juicy and full of flavor. The chocolate fondant dessert was also a highlight of the evening.

Restaurant in The College Green Hotel Dublin, Autograph Collection

The vegan pepperoni slice was genuinely good&mdash;cheese actually melted and the crust folded like a proper slice. They even had vegan mayo on the side for dipping, which I appreciated. Open late too, which is handy. Only thing is the seating&#39;s a bit cramped, but for a quick bite it did the job.

Great vegan options here. They had a separate menu, which made ordering easy. Food came out quick and tasted good. Perfect for a quick lunch.

Been here a few times now and it never disappoints. Food&#39;s solid and the staff actually chat with you, which I love for a casual catch-up with friends. 😊

Service was spot on even with the place packed for lunch. Staff took the time to walk me through the menu since it was my first visit. Liked that you can swap the bun for lettuce, handy when you&#39;re cutting back on carbs. No complaints really.

Went here for a birthday do &mdash; the sharing platters went down a treat with the whole group. Staff were sound, place looks well. Decent spot for a feed.

The pita bread was so soft and fresh, honestly the best part. Staff were lovely too, really friendly. Wish I had more room to try everything else! 😊

The little vineyard-covered patio is just magical in the evening. Food was decent, some dishes definitely better than others.

Service was spot on - staff kept the banter going even when the bar was packed. Didn&#39;t have to wait long for a refill, which says a lot.

We popped in on a quiet afternoon and had the place nearly to ourselves. Staff were lovely and the pizza was fresh. Good spot if you want a relaxed bite without the rush.

Stumbled onto this place on Capel Street and honestly glad I did. Got the homemade pastry and a fresh juice &mdash; pastry was still warm, really good. Place is small but clean, nice vibe for a quiet breakfast. Prices are fair for what you get. Would go back if I&#39;m in the area again.

Fresh sashimi, quiet room, decent Japanese spot. Service was fine but nothing special. Good for a business lunch if you need somewhere calm.

Stopped by for lunch last week&mdash;Donal had the place buzzing as usual. Fish of the day was properly cooked, flaky, not overdone. Bruschetta was decent too, though I wish they&#39;d gone heavier on the garlic. Upstairs room looks handy for a party, but I&#39;ve only ever eaten downstairs. Solid spot if you&#39;re in Monkstown and want something reliable.

Service was spot on - our server kept checking in without hovering, sorted everything quickly. Got the beef cheek and it was proper tender, fell apart with the fork. Place was busy but we never felt rushed. Solid spot if you&#39;re in the area and want something decent without the fuss.

Lovely spot for catching up with friends over cocktails 🍸 The interior is way fancier than I expected and the staff actually remember your order which is always a win. Prices are typical Dublin city centre, so not shocking but you&#39;ll feel it at the end of the night.
