Restaurant in The Fitzwilliam Hotel Dublin

No. 5 of Fine Dining  in Dublin

The a&ccedil;ai bowl was the star&mdash;layers of fresh fruit and peanut butter, looked almost too good to eat. I paired it with a light white wine spritzer, which worked nicely. The brioche sandwich fell flat though, arugula took over and the mozzarella was bland. Potatoes on the side seemed like an afterthought. Good spot, just needs some tweaks.

Stopped by Bold Boy Bakery for the tiramisu cruffin and honestly it did not disappoint. So flaky on the outside, creamy inside. Coffee was solid too. Place gets busy though, so grab a seat if you can.

Been coming here for ages and the food never lets me down. Staff are always sound too, proper friendly. Took a mate who&#39;d never tried it before and she&#39;s already planning to go back. Only thing is it gets busy around dinner time, but that&#39;s probably a good sign tbh 😄

Stopped in for a flat white and ended up staying longer than planned. The barista actually remembered how I take it &mdash; that never gets old. Good spot for watching the rain come down on the street. Only gripe is the seating&#39;s a bit cramped if you&#39;re there at peak time.

Proper old-school pub. Real fire going, decent pint of Guinness. The cats just wander about, adds to the vibe. Friendly enough banter from the locals. Nothing fancy, but you don&#39;t need fancy here. Just a solid spot for a quiet one.

Stopped in for a pint and ended up staying longer than I planned. That old bar is gorgeous, the woodwork alone is worth a look. Guinness was proper, creamy, one of the better ones I&#39;ve had in Dublin. Lounge area is dead handy if you want to sit down properly. Just busy enough that you might wait a minute at the bar.

Stopped by for a coffee while walking along the canal. Beans are fresh, you can really taste it. They&rsquo;ve a good selection to buy too, I grabbed a bag for home. Place is small but fine for a quick sit-down. Just wish they had more oat milk options, but the flat white was lovely.

I was truly impressed by the Michelin star quality meal I had here. The tuna starter and venison main were perfectly balanced and unforgettable.

Stopped in for a quick bite and grabbed the chilaquiles with green salsa. Not on the regular menu but they made it anyway, which was sound. Tasted proper, reminded me of spots back home. Concha with hot chocolate was a good shout too. Service was fast, got in and out in no time.

The food looked almost too good to eat, honestly. Every plate came out so colourful and fresh. I went for the seasonal special and it was packed with flavour. Portion size was decent for the price too, which is rare around the city centre. Owner was lovely and had a chat with us. Only thing is it gets busy, so you might wait a bit for a table.
