    boojum Boojum is Yum! Haha, see what I did there. I would definitely describe Boojum as a chipotle style burrito joint like the states have. You stand in a line order a bowl, wrap, etc. and tell the staff what you want on it. They have a lot of vegan options to custom make your own burrito. Nothing like the sofritas at chipotle though. Anyways, it was super tasty and loaded with flavor. The burritos are large in size and this place is definitely a hot spot, it was super busy! Check out my picture below to see the size. I just wish they used paper to wrap the burritos instead of foil. The reasoning for this is that if the foil gets stuck when you are eating the burrito, it's not pleasant to feel that in your mouth, where as the paper is slightly better. Also, I believe that paper would be a lot better for than the environment than foil. Also, you can order food from this restaurant through delivery. I saw quite a few delivery people coming in to pick up items.

    And this is why I love Yelp. After my stinging review the owner of Boojum sent me a direct message which business owners can do once they claim their business listing. He had no idea that I'm the community manager and he wrote a long apologetic e-mail. I was so surprised and the fact that he cared that much to reach out to a customer spoke volumes to me. I told him that people have bad days and that's just natural. He said that he would not accept that as an excuse and again extended his apology and how much customer service means to them. So on Friday I decided to return there for lunch alone. I also decided to eat in so that I could observe the service to the busy lunch crowd. Service was welcoming and the girl that I complained about that last time was very attentive (I'm not very recognisable so in case you think that's the case, not that I wear a burka, but I do have a fondness for an ugly hat). Every person that walked through that door for the 40 minutes I was there got the same treatment. There was great banter amongst the staff too which shows it wasn't contrived. I got the beef fajita burrito, very tasty if not a little embarrassing to eat (dangling cow flesh from your mouth is not the hottest of looks). Also well done Boojum for putting a sign on the door that says cash only. The power of Yelp people!

    Chicken fajita bowl - rice, chicken, stir fried veg, tomato salsa, guacamole, lettuce and sour cream! Delish!

    This is my favourite go to when I'm in work dinner time treat!! I always get the chicken fajita bowl with spicy rice, tomato salsa, guacamole, sour cream, cheese and lettuce!! I can only describe it as a taste sensation!! All the flavours just make for such a good dinner and priced at only 7 euro you really can't complain!! Another bonus for this place is that the staff are so so friendly! Not fake friendly just happy to be there friendly!!! This is a Defo a must go to for anyone who likes flavoursome Mexican food!! Just steer clear at lunch time cause it can be manic but the queue goes quick enough!!!

    It's like 3 meals in one!

    Yummy in ma tummy! My friend is a maaajor fan of this place and he finally convinced me to go, they DO NOT HAVE GF, so my belly paid the price but it was almost worth it. Got a HUUUGE burrito with pulled pork and it was AMAZING. We arrived just before lunch rush which was great, no queue is the best queue am I right? Go here and get 3 meals in one burrito - they will doggybag it but be warned I had burrito juice in my purse after a few hours so bring some plastic or something.

    Take it from a California Girl, this place rocks! I am missing my array of options to get my Mexican food fix; but, this place absolutely hits the spot. Order a burrito in a bowl or get the soft taco threesome with your choice of meats. I love the marinated chicken (tastes like there may be some cinnamon in it ?) This is a casual cozy spot with outdoor seating and high top tables near the window if you want to people watch from inside the restaurant. The staff is very cool and friendly. And, they offer student discounts too. If you want a beer with your meal, I noticed they offer Sol cerveza. Nice touch! This is good food! Muy Bueno!

    This was the first place I ate when I arrived in Dublin and it actually wasn't so bad. Basically an Irish chipotle that was fairly reasonably priced although not as flavorful, but all around not bad compared to the majority of food I had in Ireland!

    Anna S.

    I think it's an Irish version of American Chipotle. :) everyone who works here is all very nice. Very quick with processing the order, so it's a good place to go if you are in hurry. They also have a student discount, so if you are a student, this is a good place to go. Coming from California, here is my reason why I only give 3 stars despite the nice staff and good discounts: 1. Guacamole could be fresher. It seemed to me that it has been sitting there for a while. 2. Rice quality is very low :( 3. Chicken can be marinated better But please be mindful that these points came from a picky person from California where you can easily find good Mexican/Tex-Mex eatery. :)

    Fresh ingredients, friendly staff and big portions. Boojum are nailing it! I had my first boojum today and have to say I was pleasantly surprised! I usually related burritos with that heavy "oh god I feel so full I could be sick" feeling...but that feeling didn't come after a burrito bowl from here! It's just good honest food. And I like that! Let's start with the actual restaurant! The staff made even me, feel at home in the hipster vibe. And that indie music playing in the background is perfect! I got a burrito bowl to take away. Half chicken, half pulled pork, fresh guac, cheese, refried beans, sour cream and peppers, all layered into a giant takeaway container. My tummy was very happy! As was my wallet! But the best part? You'll get two meals out of this bad boy. 5 stars baby!

    Beef burrito
    David B.

    Simply put, I love Boojum. A burrito bar, but also sell tacos, bowls, nachos and salads. They have an exceptionally priced menu and you will get a well sized burrito for under €7. I'm pretty boring so always get the beef burrito. Can't comment on the other options, all I know is that my option is awesome. This place is pretty popular and you'll often see queues outside, but it's well worth the wait! Staff are friendly and super efficient.

    Burrito bowl! Mmmmm
    Lynn A.

    I am a huge burrito fan & was a big advocate of one restaurant in particular, until Boojum came into my life. Where do I begin... The choices first of all are just unbelievable - 2 different kinds of rice, cooked or raw veggies (or both) so many different kinds of meat & add one extra to your meal for a very small fee (I think about €2), then decide do you want a burrito, a bowl, a taco, so many other options too, but I'm a sucker always go for the bowl... The food is just so fresh & flavoursome I always end up overeating because I just cannot stop myself from finishing everything on the plate! Absolutely delicious. Along with this they do keep some beer in the fridge but I would encourage the Mexican soft drinks they keep in store (Jarritos I believe is the brand), mango, lime or mandarin flavour are the ones I've seen so far, I've tried each & they're all delicious!! My only complaint about this place is that they close a little early, sometimes you want a burrito at 7pm on a Sunday! (though with that said many other burrito places don't open at all on Sundays...)

    Anyone who is familiar with the Chipotle chain from the US will recognize this immediately -- same…read morestyles of burritos, same meat choices, same salsas. Even the font on the menu looks the same. Now, given that Chipotle isn't available in Dublin and good Mexican food is tough to come by (save Cafe Azteca), that's not at all a bad thing. This place is open late (11pm weekdays; midnight Fri-Sat), reasonably priced, and oh-so delicious! Order at the counter: pick the style, meat, and extras you want. It will be prepared right in front of you and then off you go with a little bundle of deliciousness. I had brown rice, black beans, and barbacoa and thoroughly enjoyed myself. The service is great and friendly as well...really nice feel here. They had a 2-for-1 promotion running and allowed me to partake even though I hadn't printed out the voucher (environmentalism for the win!). To top it off, they have Cholula hot sauce available (where oh where can you find this in Dublin?). And if your appetite for American knockoffs is still running strong, grab dessert at Eddie Rocket's across the street -- we did!

So, I decided to give it a shot on Friday as I wanted something a little different. I'm allergic to hot sauce so I went for a medium heat veggie burrito and it was good! Quite big portion. The staff aren't the smiley, happy people I would expect working at a restaurant like this but I'm gonna say that they were maybe having a bad day? Maybe it was the weather? Who knows. There's not much customer seating available so I had to take mine to go. Probably best, though, it's a messy aul thing to chow down on and sitting beside some randoms while I try to graciously gobble this down wouldn't have been my idea of fun! When I finally got around to eating it, I was very happy with it. It was huge, very tasty and filling. If the staff were a little more friendly and there was more seating, this experience could have gotten a 5*!

They don't have any maize flour tortilla, so, a bit disappointed, I took the burrito box. It felt at first like a punition to me, since the last one I had at pablo picante was disgusting and I really did not wanted to live that again. But I decided to give it a try, maybe this one would be better ? I took one with marinated chicken, cilantro and lime rice, kidney beans, and avocado ("verde") sauce, when it came, the box was looking a bit small and they were a thick green sauce covering all of it. But as soon as I tried I was very pleased by its taste. The green sauce was really good and not sickly at all. The meat was great and actually it was very very good. An awesome surprise, it really reconciled me with burritos ! If I had only one critical to do, it would be that I would have add a bit of cilantro and lime to my rice. Besides that, the staff was nice, the place is really cool and the music is good too.

Love the grilled tortilla and ingredients are all fresh. I hope to eat-in one day, so far we've only had delivery and it's always fast and delicious. I love their take on burritos, the roasted sweet potato is such a nice addition and sets it apart from a lot of other burrito places. Their Guacamole is amazing, super fresh with chunks of avocado and lots of flavor. Their nachos are also nice, lots of melted Jack cheese and toppings. Ordering on Deliveroo is a bit annoying, though. Wish there were a break down of ingredients so you could easily choose what you want and don't want, instead you have to pick from a very long list of various combinations. I think they could organize the menu on the site a bit better, and Deliveroo should have an option to include notes for the restaurant. We always have to call after we order to specify some changes, but they are always very quick to answer and happy to do it, and the order always arrives perfect! Great service and fab food, love this place!

They still put in everything you ask for, just in smaller amounts. Very, very smart idea for anyone who doesn't want leftovers and doesn't feel like exploding their stomach, not today, thanks.

While the seating is compact, it is comfortable enough - and it doesn't take that long to stuff the oversized purchase into your gab. Each time I come here, I order the same thing. A steak burrito, black beans, lots of cheese and lots of the hottest sauce. They often throw in a few peppers for me, just to be kind. They definitely are not mean when it comes to adding extras. When I say extra cheese, they do comply. Also, they add more than one scoop of meat. Usually a scoop and a third. The only complaint is they don't accept laser/visa. I dislike carrying any amount of currency in Dublin - so this is a minor inconvenience.
