Mmmm, spicy buffalo wings! That's the first thing I associate with the Carpenter, because they do…read moregreat wings, but the rest of the food isn't that nice. The pub is right behind a 37 busstop, so it's easy to get to and perfect for a wee break when you're waiting for the bus yet again. The Carpenter has a friendly, welcoming atmosphere and the staff are nice and efficient. It's a lovely spot for a few quiet pints in the evening, but if you want to have something to eat- apart from the wings- this is probably not the pub for you.

This is one of the most random pubs I have been to in a long time. The place is massive. When you…read morewalk in you are greeted by this wonderful fire. If only that was in the main pub rather than the hall, it would be amazing. The pub has loads of great little nooks and crannys spread out over 2 floors. You could easy get lost in here. But its the kind of place that you might have a chance at finding a free table, if you go searching. I have heard they also do a great Sunday Carvery, but I have not given that a go just yet. Watch the stairs, I did see someone fall down them, stairs and alcohol are not the best combo!

Following the recommendation from my Airbnb hosts, I was here for weeknight dinner. It's a local…read morebut it's quite large with big "function rooms" in the back and a large seating area in the front plus a long bar. I seated myself at a comfortable table where my drink order was taken. Not at all busy this evening but attentive staff and low music. The keg for my beer kicked while it was pouring and the bartender apologized. As you can see in the photo, it's still just a hair under a proper pint but as much as I'd find in an American pint. I'm okay with that. For dinner, I chose the Lamb Hot Pot. (The chicken curry is also a good choice as it smelled heavenly as it went by to another table.) A big iron pot topped with melted cheese, underneath a hot stew that was more lamb than anything else. Tasty, rich, delicious and a big portion. Meanwhile, I sat with the laptop connected to their wifi. A second beer was consumed before I wandered back to my Airbnb with a full belly.

A very bad experience. We had booked a table in a nearby restaurant and went an hour early to have…read morea G&T before dinner. I spend 10 minutes at the bar trying to get the attention of the staff. I was just ignored. I got the impression that the staff were on a 'work to rule' as they kept moving around and making no eye contact (they were not serving anyone). Clearly there was an industrial relations issue. I would avoid this pub, it needs a new manager.

I only come around Christmas, so I can't speak to how it is at other times of the year…read more It's surprisingly a good option for days when everyone is looking to go out because there is a large dining area (inside and covered and heated patio). The food is also surprisingly good. They even have a handful of craft beers in addition to the old standards, though the wine isn't an option you should go with. The only issue, again potentially due to the time of year I go, is the service is very inconsistent. You could be waiting 30 minutes for your beer, or you could have one delivered the second you finish your first.

Ah, the iconic Bell pub- well iconic for Blanchardstown because every set of directions you'll get…read morewill start with 'You know the Bell pub? Turn left/right there....' The Bell is especially popular during the summer months because they have a large outdoor seating area, but even in winter it's usually hopping. And it's easy to see why: the staff are great, there is a good mix of locals and strangers and the place is big enough so it never seems crowded. It's also right on the 39/38 bus routes so it's handy if you want to head into town after.

The Grasshopper Inn is one of the nicer pubs around Clonee & Blanchardstown with a good Carvery and…read moregreat outdoors space. On a sunny Sunday afternoon it is the ideal place to relax, have a pint in the sunshine and get some good mummy style dinner from the Carvery. My fav is the roast beef with tons of mash and cabbage. If you are not in the mood for Carvery, they also offer Bar food. The Sandwiches are nice (especially the trippel decker Club Sandwich) but the other dishes on the menu are nothing extraordinary and something on the slightly bland site. If you are in the mood for a pint on a sunny day and look for a pub with great outdoors space, this is where you should go if you are near Clonee.

Barbecue burger with smoky bacon was beautiful, came with a lovely crunchy salad and humongous home made thick cut chips. The wife had a 7 oz sirloin steak which came on the stone and was lovely as well.

Expecting the pub to be pretty busy, as they had a large screen in the lounge, it was disappointing to see such a poor turn out. Sadly, I think I know why. The lunch menu was a carvery and not much to choose from. Its a little pricey too. Staff are nice but not bothered. Atmosphere is non existant. Won't be going back.
