Probably my favourite restaurant visit of 2015 so far. The night I went I couldn't find anything to fault. Will definitely be back v soon!
B - Bretzel Bakery
www.bretzel.ie
Established 1870. Only discovered it in 2014 but definitely a firm favourite for their breads and some sweet treats. My favourite is their Cinnamon Rolls - perfect for a lazy Sunday morning breakfast with good coffee!
C - (The) Cupcake Bloke
www.thecupcakebloke.com
My weekend isn't complete if I don't visit here for a couple (!) of sweet treats. As their sign says, ther creations are funky, fresh and fabulous!
D - Dobbins
www.dobbins.ie
Had my birthday meal for my 30th here. Lovely food, wine and atmosphere. Timeless!
E - Ely Wine Bar
www.elywinebar.ie
The original on Ely Place in Georgian Dublin. Great selection and their food is really good!
F - Fish Shop
www.fish-shop.ie
Newly opened on Queen Street. Their fillet of fish on a brioche bun is AHMAZING
G - Guinness Storehouse
www.guinness-storehouse.com
I'm not a Guinness fan & doing the tour is an obvious tourist trap but it's definitely a must do. If nothing else the views over our city are INCREDIBLE!
H - Hophouse Kimchi
www.hophouse.ie
This is a lovely restaurant serving Korean / Japanese food.
Eaten here twice...
I've had the tuna sashimi here, they're nice and fresh. The tempura prawns are lovely as are the battered prawns I had for a main.
Both visits the food and service were excellent. You can see why this place has won a lot of food awards - they're well deserved!
I - Irish Film Institute
www.ifi.ie
In the centre of Temple Bar. National cultural institution for film. Three cinema screens showing arty and independent films along with some classics!
Keep an eye out on their website for what's showing.
J - Jo'Burger Town
www.joburger.ie
Decent burger which are huge! Outdoor seating gets really jammed when the weather is nice. Well worth a visit!
K - Krust Bakery
www.krustbakery.com
The home of Cronut in Dublin. They also serve up fab coffee and other baked treats.
L - (The) Liquor Rooms
www.theliquorrooms.com
In a basement on the quays. Great selection of cocktails here with a really nice vibe. Need I say anymore?
M - My Meat Wagon
This was a tough letter but My Meat Wagon won out.
Great BBQ in Smithfield! Decent craft beer menu. Staff are really nice. Really liked getting the Stinger bars for each of us with the bill!
N - No Name Bar.
Used to be a huge secret. Staff are really nice. Serves great cocktails and a brilliant atmosphere. Gets v busy so be prepared to stand.
O - O'Donoghues
Must be Dublin's most famous bar. Everyone should visit at least once to enjoy good drinks and the live music!
P - Parfumarija
www.parfumarija.com
Located in Westbury Mall. This is a fab place for unique scents.
Q - Queen of Tarts
www.queenoftarts.ie
Another classic. Never had a bad tart here, fab!
R - Roasted Brown
www.roastedbrown.com
Located at Filmbase, Curved Street. I adore the bright airy high ceilinged space and their coffee is just so so good!
S - Soder + Ko
www.soderandko.ie
Was hard to choose for this letter too but Soder + Ko won out for me. Great food, wine, cocktails in a brilliant atmosphere.
T - Teeling Whiskey Distillery Tour
www.teelingwhiskey.com
Newly opened. Well worth the entrance fee to learn about the history of Dublin Whiskey and walk through as they create their own section of history. Also if only to sample the whiskey at the end in their bar!
U - Ugly Duckling
www.uglyducklingdublin.com
Home of the PoBoy in Dublin. Need I say anymore?
V - Vintage Kitchen
www.thevintagekitchen.ie
Lovely food, great tunes and BYOW. Just keep in mind that place is v hard to get a table so attempt to book a table well in advance!
