Excellent service, speedy with a smile. Could have done with spoons for our desserts though! Cosy atmosphere and a roaring fire to warm us on a grey day in January. Stew was a bit salty. Apart from that, the food was wholesome and visually appealing. Would recommend the soup and Focaccia chicken.

I've stated this before - Johnnie Fox's has the best mussels in Dublin. But the impossible has happened - the best has gotten even better. The new sauce is out of this world. Congratulations to the chef for the recipe, and to the whole team for the implementation.

Afternoon tea is one of life’s accessible luxuries, and tea at the Shelbourne is one of the best. You may only have a yacht or a fancy apartment in your dreams, but you can be treated like royalty while sitting in the Shelbourne’s beautiful lounge. The food, drinks, and service are all impeccable. For anyone looking for a special way to celebrate an event in Dublin, this is the place to do it.

Never a bad experience. We frequent DB every time we are in Dublin. The experience is always satisfying. We had dinner reservations for a Friday night (highly recommended). Quick to seat and serve us. Delicious food. Great drinks and the staff is always friendly. Will return. Family of four adults.
