   I have to say the steak on the stone was absolutely delicious. I loved the fact you could cook it to suit your own palette. 10 out of 10 I will definitely be back

    We were in the Black Forge on Mon 9th May , Food and drinks were fab but the best thing about the place is the staff. Liam the Manager was such a gentleman and did his utmost to make my nephews 16th birthday celebration extra special as did the lovely lady who brought us out our food and all of the staff we encounterd were just so nice.... They all went above and beyond for us and Liam even brought us out the UFC Belt for photos. We had a lovely night and had great craic and banter with Liam and crew. Will definitely be back, Thanks Liam and staff for a great night.

    We had such a lovely meal at the Black Forge. Thank you so much to all of the staff for making our experience so enjoyable. Sharon was a lovely host and really made us want to come back! She really welcomed us and made us feel so comfortable. We travel to Dublin from Cork quite often for concerts and events and always find it difficult to find somewhere reasonable that serves great food and we are so happy to have found the Black Forge. The Steak Sambo and the Fish and chips were divine!!! The interior design is stunning throughout the bar and the music is at the perfect level! We will be back for sure :)

    I would really like to thank the Black Forge Inn and all the staff there for making my husband and I's 10 year wedding anniversary so memorable. The venue itself is very welcoming as was the lovely lady at front of house -they even remembered that we had travelled up from Swansea specifically to visit the bar for our wedding anniversary (I booked it as a surprised for my husband) We were shown to our seats which had a view to the kitchen where we could see the food being made and how clean it was! (Which is great as I suffer from Ocd when it comes to my food as I have a severe allergy to mushrooms) Our server was fabulous, regretfully I didn't get her name which I apologise for as she was fab and made wonderful conversation with us (even if she did mistake us for English lol) and we did have to wait a while for our drinks after a mix up /being brought a beer and charged for it when I ordered alcohol free as I'm training 🍺 but that was the only very slight negative if you can even call it a negative -it didn't cloud our visit though. When the starters were brought out (incredibly quickly) I was incredibly surprised by the portion size!! The Irish sure do like to feed you - and it was delicious. The starters of the goats cheese balls and the crab croquettes were very generous and beyond tasty. My husband had the steak (sizzling) and rare -the stone is hot so that you can continue to cook it to your liking but we always eat steak rare so it came out perfect. My buttermilk burger was AMAZING! I was so stuffed by the starter that I really struggled through the main course. I was determined to eat it- but my goodness it was massive-proper comfort food,like you had just gone home to your mams who just keeps feeding you. The host is an absolute diamond, such a sweetheart and made an effort.to talk to everyone in the whole venue including us- and we even had a picture with connors belt that made my husbands day

    The service staff was really nice. Unfortunately we were not able to order dessert, because it was 10:06 pm. The waitress told us it was too lte, bit since we had the table at nine and no one told us that the kitchen would close at 10 also for dessert we were a little disappoibted by that fact. The rest was great, food was good and the drinks too. Noise level is really high.

    Have been dying to try this place for a while now and it did not disappoint. From the moment we walked into the place we were greeted straight away. Plenty of staff about. Always asking if we needed anything. The food was fabulous and great value. We are planning to return for a birthday celebration next week so definitely looking forward to this. Highly recommend.
