Mediocre food, surprisingly didn't know how to handle a busy crowd. Very nice staff, VERY SLOW SERVICE and bad value for food. €15 for 5 chicken tenders with no chips.

Generally good but on numerous occasions members of our party stood at the bar for at least 15 minutes and we may as not have existed for all the attention the staff paid to us. This was pre and post rugby match when there wasn’t that many people also

Fantastic bar. Was very accommodating for our party booking. They gave us our own area. The two members of staff who were working Saturday afternoon were just amazing, they were friendly, great sense of humour and nothing was too much trouble. We were in Dublin for my sister's 30th, they put The Grand National on for us and music. We wanted to pay separately for our drinks so went to the bar to order, but they always brought our drinks over for us.

Little bit disappointed that we booked for 3 people and got given a table for 2 people. We had to get an extra chair to squish in. People had dumped their coats on our seats and blocked the big screen so we couldn’t see much of the match and the music was a bit too loud that you couldn’t have a conversation. There was a lovely redheaded server who tried her best to help.

Excellent food and service on a quiet night. Only suggestion would be to mute screens/sound in areas where nobody was watching/didn't want to watch if that's possible. Otherwise recommended and would certainly visit again.
