    Was there for a family birthday. Table was a good size for 6 . There was a good atmosphere but it was very loud as we were under a speaker and near a stag party of about 20. Service was exceĺlent, staff were friendly. Food was good, we had ribs, chicken and cauliflower wings to start. Delicious. Then various burgers and fries and fish. All tasty except for the fries which lacked flavour and were a little oily. For desserts we had Sundaes and sticky toffee pudding and chocolate brownies. With drinks and aĺl the food and including service charge it was ,over €300. So expensive enough. The desserts were expensive for what you got. We enjoyed it overall as a special treat.

    I go here every time in London. Perfect location within Temple Bar. Great food and a friendly staff. All the food is great but for Americans…it’s the only place in Ireland to get buffalo wings just like home. Highly recommend!

    Hi Phil Thanks a million for the positive appreciation! We love looking after all our American friends when they are over. See you again real soon hopefully! Thanks
