Stopped in for lunch and grabbed a burrito with a drink for &euro;11.50. Portion was big enough that I couldn&#39;t finish it. Filling options are plenty, and the hot sauce on the table gives it a proper kick. Solid spot if you&#39;re hungry and don&#39;t want to spend a fortune.

The early bird menu is decent value&mdash;three courses for what you&rsquo;d normally pay for a main elsewhere. I went for the fish, which was cooked well, and the warm sticky toffee pudding hit the spot. Pairing it with a glass of dessert wine worked nicely. Service was a bit slow, but the place was packed. Fine for a midweek bite.

Booked for a group of eight and they handled it well. Staff were sound, kept checking in and the food didn&#39;t take forever to come out. Had the chicken burger, it was decent. Place got a bit loud later on but that&#39;s on us for picking a busy Friday. Fine for a casual shout.

Came in with a wheelchair, staff moved tables around without me even asking. That was decent. Pancakes were good, fluffy enough. Got a second plate, no regrets. Place isn&#39;t big but they made it work. Fine for a casual breakfast stop.

The lamb stew was the real deal. Tender, rich, proper Irish flavours. I&#39;d go back just for that alone. The waiter knew the menu inside out, helped my mate with her allergies and got the kitchen to sort her something safe. That was decent. Didn&#39;t pay much attention to the room or anything else. The food did the talking.

The Sizzler pizza and meatballs were proper good. Only thing is the slices came all wonky&mdash;seven uneven pieces. Still, solid spot for a feed.

Came back here again and grabbed the 3-person tasting menu. Still a solid choice, loads of food, we actually couldn&#39;t finish it. The spice level is proper, not messing around. Service was a bit quick, felt like they wanted the table back, but the food keeps me coming back.

The Eton mess ice cream donut was genuinely lovely &mdash; fresh strawberries and that crumbly meringue worked so well. Strawberry milkshake was proper too, not too sweet. Nice to see a place putting real fruit in things. I&#39;d go back just for that donut.

The purple risotto with golden beetroot was gorgeous &mdash; almost too pretty to eat. Loads of veggie options which I loved. Service was spot on too.

Kebab and chips did the job. Big portions, decent price. Way cheaper than the city centre spots. Not fancy but you don&#39;t need it here. Solid feed after a long day.

Solid feed for the price, the full Irish was decent and the coffee came quick. Portion was big enough that I skipped lunch after. Wouldn&#39;t say it&#39;s fancy, but it does the job.

The roast duck here is genuinely good. Crispy skin, juicy meat, and the portion was way bigger than I expected. Honestly one of the better Cantonese places I&#39;ve tried in the city. Price felt fair for what you get. I&#39;d go back just for that duck again.

Food&rsquo;s decent enough and they&rsquo;ve a fair few options, even some healthier stuff which you don&rsquo;t see often around here. Service was fine, nothing to complain about. Place was clean too. I&rsquo;d go back if I&rsquo;m in the area, but it&rsquo;s not somewhere I&rsquo;d make a special trip for.

Came here for the first time last week and honestly the service stood out more than the food. I forgot my curry sauce on the table and one of the staff actually ran after me to hand it over. That kind of thing just doesn&#39;t happen everywhere. The curry itself was decent, nothing mind-blowing, but that little touch made me want to come back. Place was busy too, so fair play to them for keeping it together.

Tiny little spot but the jalape&ntilde;o croissant was so flaky and good 😍 loads of sweet and savoury options too. Get there early though, they sell out fast!

Coffee&rsquo;s always spot on, no complaints there. Staff are sound too, always up for a quick chat while you wait. Makes a nice break from the usual lunch rush. Not the fastest if you&rsquo;re in a mad hurry, but worth it for the craic. I&rsquo;ll keep coming back.

Tiny little place, barely any seats, but grand for grabbing something quick. Got the chicken wrap, fresh enough and the sauce was decent. Packaged well, no mess on the go. Not somewhere you&#39;d sit down for a long chat, but does the job.

The mapo tofu here actually tastes like the real deal, not the watered-down version you get in most places. I sat near the window and the light was nice, made the whole room feel a bit warmer. Double cooked pork belly was decent too, though the seating could be a bit more comfortable. Wouldn&#39;t mind coming back for a quick lunch.

Decent spot for Chinese food when you&#39;re sick of pub grub. Wonton soup was good but the portions are a bit small for the price.

The carrot cake really stood out &mdash; fresh and not overly sweet. Brownie was good too. Prices are on the higher side, but the quality matches. Courtyard seating is nice, though the garden chairs could use more cushioning.

Decent spot on South William Street. The Ethiopian cappuccino was rich and nutty, nice for a slow Saturday morning. Steps out front are good for people-watching.

Came here for a quick bite and honestly the staff were the best part&mdash;really friendly and on top of things. Food was a bit of a letdown though. My dish tasted like it was reheated, not freshly made. For the price, I expected a bit more. Might give it another go but probably just for a drink next time.

Lovely spot for catching up with friends &mdash; the hot chocolate is seriously good and the pastries are class. Interior&rsquo;s dead pretty too, very Parisian vibe. Staff were sound.

Solid neighbourhood spot. The lemon and poppy seed loaf is my go-to, always fresh. Staff are sound, never any hassle. Good to have a bakery like this locally.

Service was quick and the food was tasty. The portion size was generous, though the sides were a bit of a letdown. Still, a solid meal overall.

The matcha was proper good&mdash;you can tell they actually know what they&#39;re doing with it. Got a bit loud later on but the drink itself made up for it.

Food&#39;s always solid here and comes out fast. Staff were grand today, though the place can get a bit chaotic when it&#39;s busy.
