Would definitely recommend. Food exceeded expectations; the starter, gnocchi with lovage oil was very unusual and just gorgeous, mains excellent. Service attentive throughout. Only negative was a very limited selection of wine, reds were all quite similar, but overall had a really nice experience and will definitely visit again.

I had the beef patty which was very good. I loved the crispy pancetta and fontina cheese toppings. Chips were hot and crispy. My daughters had the Avo eggs with goats cheese and the waffle with banana, marscapone, pecans with toffee sauce, it was delicious but she needed help finishing it as it was a big portion. An extra portion of fries, 2 mimosas and a bellini brought the bill to €83.50 which I felt was good value. It's a lovely space but the music was too loud that coupled with a noisy table behind us made it hard to hold a conversation

The staff at Urban8 are wonderful, cannot fault the service. The chicken wings are delish and SO hot. I wish the kids’ menu could make a comeback as it was brilliant value.
