About the restaurant

The Winding Stair Bookshop & Café became a famous Dublin landmark in the 1970s and 1980s. Named after the Yeats poem and in honour of its winding staircase, it is overlooking the river Liffey, with an iconic view of the Ha'penny bridge. As a popular meeting place for writers, musicians and artists, it was a well known hub for debate and creativity with many poems written, novels penned and movies shot within its walls. In 2006, Elaine Murphy brought this much-loved spot back to life as a restaurant, championing seasonal, Irish produce. The bookshop, located on the ground floor, was retained, as were many of the old bookshelves, photos and memories. The room retains its timeless charm with stripped wood tables and floors, and Bentwood café chairs.The view remains as quintessentially Dublin as ever.
The food is good, old-fashioned home cooking, with produce sourced from artisans within the island. Drink sare local and international craft beers & wines from stellar producers.

the gentleman’s tea was spectacular and fairly priced, better than we expected, the meat tender, the sausage delicious, at first we thought it was small but we were stuffed at the end would have preferred the dessert separated from the hot meals the staff were attentive and friendly, it was quiet with only a few tables occupied so no atmosphere but it may have been the time we went and it’s a hotel, it was worth going and would go again

I have been coming here for 17 years since I was 15 years old. This place is an institution. Food is amazing and great value for money. Dinner for 9 with a lot of ‘no seafood’ and ‘sushi-virgins’ on the table; this changed quickly! A great experience for the newcomers and a meal that lived up to why it’s my favourite restaurant in Dublin!
