   Food was very good. Had the seafood linguine and a good French Sauvignon Blanc. Music seemed out of keeping with the setting of an old historic schoolhouse. It was a bit too much disco for us.

   We have eaten at the Schoolhouse numerous times and love the food and wine. Highly recommend the Seafood Linguine or lamb which was a special….both fabulous!

   Have dined here before and found it great. Last night unfortunately wasn’t as good! My friends Hake arrived cold and despite an apology, it appeared it was only brought back into the kitchen to be microwaved…. Same piece arrived out piping hot!! Still charged full price - very disappointing. The burger I raved about before, wasn’t as good, so all in all sorry we went there. Maybe a problem getting and retaining chefs, but at the very least, don’t charge for a disaster of a plate!

   We had the best meal here upon our arrival in Dublin. Great service and fantastic gluten free warm ham and cheese sandwich-you get two! Took one home for later plus some of the fantastic fig and goat cheese salad. I could eat there every day! Building is also stunning and the outdoor area is quite charming.

    Lovely place that my husband and I booked for our first anniversary. The food was outstanding, I had the steak which was done to perfection and the chips were gorgeous my husband had a burger which was lovely. The deserts (Tiramisu) were so nice! Couldn't fault the food, the service however was far from perfect. Firstly they didnt seem to have recorded of our booking but a table was found but we did have to stand around until it was cleaned but fine it was a Saturday night. However when we ordered drinks it took ordering three times with three different staff and 35 mins to get a coke and a white wine. Our starter never arrived (no apologies were made) but as I said what did arrive was lovely. Just before the food arrived I ordered another wine to have with my meal however again it took asking 3/4 different members of staff to actually get it by the end of my meal...so that was asking 7 times to get 2 glasses of wine. I did want to ask for one of the lovely cocktails that they do but I was worried it might take another half hour so I didn't. I have to say that all the young staff were very, very polite just not very on top of things. Bit disappointed as it was meant to be a special night for us however as I said lovely food and a cracking venue!

    Just loved this little gem of a place ! Such incredibly friendly service from our waitress Rebecca . The building is just an architectural gem and the food did not disappoint. I had a prawn risotto which was beautifully light and tasty as the waitress promised ! Will be returning here again and again ! Honestly a great find ! Beautiful bar too ! My new local !

    Very slow service despite huge number of staff and few customers. Very loud music in an empty bar. Food was good but expensive. Limited menu and wine list. No vintage/dates included on wine list.

    Very limited vegetarian options-in fact only one. The ambiance is cozy and the location is good. However, I would not recommend it for any special occasions; even though I made a note when I booked the restaurant for a birthday celebration, no action was taken even though we ordered the dessert. The only expectation would be a lit candle or a message made of chocolate as you expect from any restaurant.

    I had a burger, it was greasy. Used napkin to soak the grease. Was not offered condiments or asked if food was ok. Thought it was overpriced. I eat there regularly before Covid. Then when rules relaxed mainly because it is local and my husband has walking issues. Way back when it opened first ,it was lovely,good atmosphere.
