Very good food. Had the chicken curry. The atmosphere is unlike anywhere else. We sat on the second floor and the bartender was friendly and helpful.

They would not accept their Unilocal offer even when I showed it to them. It is not good in December apparently. They should probably update that on Unilocal.The inside is OK, but not nearly as beautiful as most Dublin pubs.

Cool kitschy spot in the lovely neighborhood of lower Baggot. The pub attracts a slightly older crowd where there were only five or so of us under 30. Was there Saturday early in the evening(8ish), and when we arrived it was a pleasant vibe and good music. As the clocks got closer to ten volume dramatically increased and at some point it was so loud I could barely hear my own thoughts. Hopefully, it’s quieter weekday nights and given that is so, you will see me back here again! And yeah, wine for 6 euros a class must be considered cheap.

By far the best service we’ve had on our vacation. Thank you guys for not being annoyed by us tourists. Every single restaurant while I was here was just a pain in the ass to get drinks, food, bill. But Foley’s was a cool interior(Alice in Wonderland /Rock Music.) Comfortable tables NOT crammed like sardines and good food/drinks. We went here twice just cause we knew we’d have a guaranteed good meal. Great place for after the pubs.

Football and dinner by candlelight. Delicious roasted chicken with the best ever gravy. Nourishing and great lamb stew. Service was prompt and attentive. Guinness was the low point, otherwise quite a wonderful experience.

We stopped for a pint after viewing some of Dublin’s famous attractions. When we walked in, there were dozens of imaginative cocktails posted all around, so we ended up staying to try a bunch of them, and eating great bar snacks like sticky ribs and spicy wings. It was wonderful! Also, our great server ended up being from our area in the States. In all, we had a ball!

Great food, great service in a great area of Dublin. We stayed at the stauntons on the green a block or two away. The girl at the guesthouse recommended here for dinner. In my opinion this place had the best fish n chips in all the places we visited in ireland. Their batter is just different. The Apple pie with blueberries and a warm frosting to pour over it was something we still talk about. This is a cool spot to check out away from the busy Grafton street area.

I never write reviews about restaurants. However, this one made an impression. The staff was extremely nice and the food. Well, I didn’t realize how delicious Irish food was until we happened upon this spot. We had been in Ireland for numerous days already and hadn’t really experienced the great tastes of Irish cuisine. This was a fantastic surprise! If you are in the area, definitely stop in… And, the interior design is pretty cool as well.

I studied abroad in Dublin and lived right down the street from this restaurant. This was my absolute favorite restaurant. I think I came here over 5 times throughout the semester. I miss it so much now. The coolest part of it is the ambiance. You feel like you’re sitting in a parlor just hanging out on the couches with the candles they burn in old liquor and wine bottles. The art is cool and the décor is unlike any other restaurant. It seems like a small place but then there are 2 more levels that are just as neat as the first floor. The servers and bartenders were always super friendly and fun to talk to every time we went. But the real reason you go to Foley’s is for the Foley’s burger. I get it without a bun and with roasted vegetable instead of fries, but it’s one of the absolute BEST burgers I’ve ever had. Without a doubt! If I return to Dublin, there’s not a doubt in my mind I’ll go to Foley’s. Craving that burger right now!

So happy to have stumbled upon this place! Absolutely loved the vibes and music in here. Got the cod tempura and it was one of the best fish and chips I’ve had in Dublin! The homemade fries were fabulous. Split the cheesecake for dessert with some espresso and was not disappointed. Prices were very reasonable and waitstaff was very friendly!

My first visit to Ireland on business and arrived in time for St Patty’s Day. Staying at the Merrion around the corner and passed by Foley’s and decided to stop in. Outstanding!!! The décor catches your eye as you walk in and immediately feel a sense of charm. The menu is small but well balanced with local favorites, a diverse offering of seafood, steak, gluten options, chicken, traditional Irish specials and the ingredients are fresh. The service is fantastic and the speed of the meal from the kitchen is amazingly quick given how everything is prepared fresh!!! Ate here twice and had to try the fish and chips and had the Foley burger the second visit. The bartender is exceptional and has several unique cocktails and makes all of them fresh from scratch. A must try!!!

This is a nice spot in town with good food and a great staff. Its in a handy location with many options around if you are out doing a bit of a crawl. They also have private function rooms upstairs next to the smoking area which are brilliant for private events and parties, a few of which I have attended myself. When around this side of town I tend to call in for at least a pint.

I went to Foleys for the first time today since it has opened the doors under new management and it was great! The pub has a good vibe as the furniture is a retro & pop art on the walls. The bar staff was extremely friendly and chatty. I look forward to going back!

Surprised there aren’t more reviews about this local Irish Pub on Merrion Row. As a foreigner, this is probably the go to block for historic, traditional and nostalgic pubs. This pub has a lot of old world charm and character with an appealing décor. Bartender was friendly, courteous and interested in our accents which to my surprise coming from the US, we were only interested in hearing his Irish accent. It’s a pleasant and scenic walk from downtown passing several parks with lush trees and wooden benches. Can’t wait to get back to visit again and reminisce our past visit.
