This place is pretty darn good…read more The chips are a bit better than your average chipper, the guy prides himself on the quality of chips. I know this because he is a TALKATIVE guy, in a good way! He's great fun and it's basically like having a friendly taxi driver serve you chips. One of the reviews mentions high quality Fish, not sure that the fish are particularly better than average. Another plus is that they are open very late on the weekends, I think till about 3am.

I are here on a visit to Dublin area from Cincinnati, OH. What a great fish restaurant. We both had…read morethe fish and chips and they were brilliant! The batter was light, the fish was fresh, the chips were perfect! The beer from a local craft brewery was spot on. The service was speedy. No complaints about anything. If you are in the Dun Laoghaire area, don't miss this casual, tasty "fish shack".

Unfortunately, I can't give a review for the food at this establishment because we were turned away…read moreat the door. We arrived around 45 minutes before their posted closing time. We were staying at the Haddington House Hotel, just an eight minute walk from the restaurant, and when we arrived, we waited at the front to be seated as a sign at the door requested. A young man indicated that he'd be back in just a moment to seat us, or so we thought. . However, when he returned he said "Oh, I'm so sorry but we're not seating anyone else for dinner, but you can take away food." Needless to say, we declined that offer. Why would we wait for them to cook food for us to take away, when we could also be seated in the restaurant and eat that same food? That made no sense. The restaurant was full but there was an empty table for two at the front, and another party was paying their bill and preparing to leave. We had seen from reviews that the place is popular and gets good reviews, but didn't expect we'd be told we couldn't be seated, . After regrouping, we decided to take our business to Bubba's Fish. Market in Dalkey,. Just three stops away on the Dart. Their Google listing indicated that their kitchen closes at 9 pm. By the time we got going, it was already a little after 8 pm, but we hopped on the train and got there by 8:25. Instead of being turned away, we were greeted at the door by the hostess and told we could sit wherever we'd like. Such a different reception, and we had a fabulous meal. Our experience at The Fish Shack was inexplicable and disappointing to say the least, but God turned it around for good because we had a wonderful experience, at a welcoming place at Bubba's! Who knows if we'll ever make it back to Ireland again, but if we do, we'll never go back to the Fish Shack again.

My coworker played a nasty trick by sending us here by way of Enniskerry. The backroads here are so…read moreinsanely narrow, and the hills incredibly steep, not for the faint of heart! By the time we reached this place, we felt we earned every drink and nibble of food. By the time we ventured here, it was my 7th day of driving on the "correct" side of the road for the first time in my life, so the route here was certainly the final boss which required all my driving skills and full focus. The food was delicious and felt like something home cooked by your grandparents. Although I get the impression from locals that this is kind of a touristy place, I did not get that vibe from the atmosphere here. There were people from out of town asking about the dancing show, which is in a separate room and you need to purchase tickets for this in advance. The service here is what you would expect from Europeans: friendly, but slow. They seem to want to make you feel welcome to stay and not rushed out the door. I always feel awkward having to ask for the check, but I am getting better at it Overall, the experience was just what we were looking for: something warm and cozy after a week of dreary, cold Irish weather overlaid on top of our 12+ hour workdays. The table we sat next to were some local roofers who had far more difficult and dangerous jobs than we did, so we ended up leaving this place with a sense of gratitude for our jobs. Energized and refreshed from the long journey, we plowed through the rain and mist back down the mountain to our hotel in Dublin. The main roads here are far easier to traverse than the backroads.

The pie, is a stew with a pastry lid, not a pie. Lots of meat, and a very rich, salty gravy. Not a fan, but others raved about it. Plate envy for the roast chicken meal, looked lovely. Will I be back? Oh yes, I'll try something else, there is plenty to choose from.

I was only out in DL for a sunny walk but got a lovely smell of chips as I passed their stall on…read morethe pier so I got into the queue and got the classic fish and chip. Pricey enough at €8.50 but the price was worth it. You get two battered fish pieces and a helping of chips, all tucked into a paper recyclable tray. The chips were good, had a unique taste to them can't figure it out but was nice. The fish pieces well they just melted in your mouth. It really is their speciality. on display is a few live crabs which I presume are on the menu for anyone who wants to try, maybe next time I might :) Only downside is it's a take away only (of course since it's located on a trailer on the pier) and with that if its cold or rainy you'll be queuing up and eating in the bad weather. Still if you are out walking it's going to be good enough weather It can also get very busy as there is a lot of walkers around that area And parking is limited in the area but you may find a space in front of the nearby yacht club.
