Stopped here after the castle visit &mdash; BBQ wings were proper tasty, and the burgers went down well with everyone. Place had a good buzz without being mental.

Solid spot for a quick pint. Staff were efficient, no messing around. Gets busy later on, so come early if you want a seat.

Stopped in for the Cork game and they sorted us with a good spot. Guinness was class, and the chicken fajitas were a solid portion. Big beer garden out back too.

Stopped in after walking around Eyre Square. The seafood chowder wasn&#39;t great, bit watery. Beef was salty too. Staff were sound though, sorted us out quick. Handy spot if you&#39;re nearby and hungry. Maybe just grab a pint instead of a full feed.

Stopped in for a drink and tried the Christmas gin with the strawberry swirl&mdash;lovely. Paloma was good too. Prices are a bit steep for the size, but you&#39;re paying for the vibe.

Proper old-school spot with the fire going and trad music in the background. Guinness was spot on. Locals made it feel properly welcoming.

Big portions for the price, no complaints there. BBQ wings were class, and the gluten-free chicken goujons sorted my wife out nicely. Solid pub grub.

Stopped in for dinner and grabbed a seat at the bar. The glazed pork chop was properly done, sticky and charred in the right places. Finished with the panna cotta, which was silky. Wine list is decent and doesn&#39;t break the bank. Service was fine, left us alone mostly. Good spot if you&#39;re in the area and don&#39;t want a fuss.

Booked the upstairs room for a mate&#39;s 30th. The bartender knew his stuff, poured a proper pint. Space worked well, didn&#39;t feel cramped even with a good crowd in. Food was decent too, got the burger and it did the job. No complaints about the night.

Great Irish coffee - properly made with the cream floating just right. Barman clearly knew what he was doing behind the counter. Nice spot to sit and take your time over a drink without feeling rushed. Glad we wandered in off the main strip. Would&#39;ve liked a wine list with more options though.

I highly recommend the afternoon tea at this restaurant. The selection of sandwiches and desserts is fantastic, and the scones are the best I&#39;ve ever had!

Restaurant in The Morrison Dublin, Curio Collection by Hilton

The beef and Guinness pie was the standout. Rich, dark gravy, proper chunks of meat, pastry that held up. Had it with the champ, which soaked up the sauce nicely. Portion was decent for the price. Could&#39;ve done with a bit more pepper in the mash, but that&#39;s a small thing. I&#39;d order that again.

The fish and chips here are always solid&mdash;never had a bad batch. Place gets busy, but that&rsquo;s just how it goes. Staff were friendly enough too.

Decent pint of Guinness here - proper pour and the staff were sound. &euro;6.50 is fair for Dublin, cheaper than most spots around.

The chicken burger was proper good, and the curry had a real kick to it. Quick enough service too. Handy spot if you&#39;re near the Luas.

Came for the dinner, live music was decent craic. Lamb shank fell off the bone, prawns were fresh enough. Place had a good buzz to it. Bit loud if you&#39;re after a quiet chat, but sure that&#39;s part of it. Solid feed overall.

Been coming here for a while now, and the Beamish is always spot on. Never had a bad pint, which is saying something. Food&#39;s decent too, the comfort stuff hits the spot when you need it. Caught a rugby match here last week, good craic. Place gets busy but it&#39;s part of the charm. Solid spot if you&#39;re in the area and want a proper pint without any fuss.

Solid whiskey selection here. Tried a peated Islay I&#39;d never heard of and the bartender knew exactly how to talk about it. Outdoor seating was a bonus, though the street noise got a bit much.

We popped in without a reservation on a Friday night and they still squeezed us in. Staff were dead sound about it too, not making us feel rushed at all. Got the burger and a cocktail, both were grand. Place had a nice buzz, perfect for catching up with the girls. Wouldn&#39;t mind going back sometime.

The beef and Guinness pie here is the real deal. Proper rich gravy, decent chunk of meat. Pints are grand too. My usual spot when I&#39;m in Galway.

Full Irish breakfast came out hot and quick, on proper warm toast. That&#39;s exactly what you want on a cold morning. Staff were sound, no fuss. Place is small but has a decent buzz to it. I&#39;d say it&#39;s a solid spot if you&#39;re in the area and need something filling without the wait.

Stopped in for breakfast, grabbed a seat near the old theatre display. Food came quick, no messing around. Had the full Irish, decent portion, did the job. Place has a bit of character, not your usual chain pub. Fine if you want a solid feed without hanging about all morning.

Steak sandwich was spot on again, staff always look after you here. Been coming for a while now and it stays consistent. Fair price for what you get.

BBQ wings were unreal, sweet potato fries spot on. Got busy so service lagged a bit, but worth it.

Stopped by on a quiet midweek evening and grabbed a seat near the terrace. The prawn pilpil was proper tasty, plenty of garlic and oil. Duck salad had a good kick to it too. Staff were sound, checked in a few times without hovering. Nice spot if you want a relaxed bite without the weekend madness.

The live music really made the place&mdash;two lads got everyone going. Guinness was spot on too. Could&#39;ve done with a bit more space at the bar, but sure look, it added to the craic.

The whiskey tasting here was genuinely interesting &mdash; proper history behind it, not just a quick pour. Food menu&#39;s small but done well. Service was friendly, though we did wait a bit between courses.

Found this spot upstairs - proper hidden gem. Had the steak and it was cooked exactly right. Portions are decent for the price. Staff left us alone until we needed them, which I appreciate.

The rooms upstairs are spotless and comfortable, with a huge bathroom and great shower. Breakfast is a solid self-service spread, and the staff go out of their way to make you feel welcome. Just be prepared for some street noise and firm pillows.
