Again, Manhattan is a big favourite of mine, as it is with Dillo and the Green Hen. JoeSemi recommended it as usual.Quote:

The Peoples Cafe on Capel Street is a good little Chinese takeaway with seating for about 8.
The Gin Palace on Middle Abbey Street/Liffey Street does great Tapas and other dishes. It's also a really nice bar to chill out in.
ive been outta dublin for a long while now, no harm with the amount of rubbish places popping up either!!
anyhow macaris what a feed, lovely grub extremely healthy and all, has to be the one across from UCD for lys dexics.
but seriouslly, always got a savage carvery in the woodstock in phibsboro, bit pricey but worth it. in fairness carvery is far better than any pub grub, as pub grub is either a) grilled food or b) microwaved meat and veg.
remember most pubs cook for the week on the monday and just reheat for the rest of the week!!
I used to go to O'Neill a bit when I lived in Dublin but it got
to the stage where the food was was quantity over quality!
Food in the Hairy Lemon was decent but pricy, same with Searsons.
Flannerys had agood mixed grill and there was another pub across
the road and down towards the Bleedin Horse that had a decent
dinner too.
Fagans in Drumcondra had a good carvery
I worked around Stephens Green area so usually stayed around there!
Might have all changed, its about 3 years since I lived there.
The old Wed Wose Cafe, (kinda off Wexford St? i think) used to do a
deadly Builders Breakfast a fwe years back, but then they went and
changed the W's to R's and all of a sudden they went all poncy.
A fiver for toast kinda place!
ya does anyone think there is a need for a greasy spoons or two in dublin. i reckon there is, i mean with all the builders and that for a start. it would also offer cheaper prices, probably cheaper food to if ye get me, but it would help competitivenes. i mean at the end of a day a fry is a fry...
Judge Roy Beans on nassau street has nice bar food!
But if you're looking for something different the Monolian BBQ their Buffet is class!
Got brought there once and it was great for a change, nice to go somewhere different than your typical table service type resturants!!
Aw yeah the Mongolian BBQ is great for a nite out....deadly fun. Do they still have the mural on the wall with Bob Geldof and Bono etc as some of G Khan's men??Quote:

Gallagher's Boxty House is quite expensive considering the fare they serve. You'd have a meal in a fine restaurant for the same money.Quote:

I know its not in Dublin but has anyone ever been to the Richmond Inn in Longford Town or McPartlan's in Clondra? Neither place might be high on flavour, but they both horse on the grub, and provide second helpings if required.
Wheres Clondra? Never heard of it. Never been to either place. Got a good feed one eve in The Longford Arms.Quote:

Judge Roy Beans' gave me the trots once. Glad its gone.
I work off Baggot Street in Dublin and the options for lunch are good...
Swedish Food Co.
Doheny & Nesbit's
Tom's Kitchen
Searson's
Maguire's (closed at mo for renovations)
Wagamama's
Bean Scene (Haddington Road)
New 'deluxe' Spar on Baggot Street does fairly mean sambos with great choice
Gerard's
...and Cafe Sol for the caffeine fix on the way back
Has anyone metioned Zaytoons already? quality.
Bang is nice but not really in the spirit of the thread!
the Mixed Grill in Flannerys at lunchtime is like a heart attack on a plate but does the job if you are feelin rough as a knackers dog after the nite before...
