Ha, well, if your average student is in their 40s then they're taking up most of the bar at lunch time! I had heard good things about the night and as I was in Tallaght village I thought I'd give the food a try as it was freezing cold outside and I was starving... The menu cards looked a wee bit beaten and the menu only had a short selection of pub food. Somewhat dismayed I must have shown it in my face as a charming waiter appeared with the specials which were all tempting but as it was lunch I settled for the homemade soup (beautifully fresh and not overly creamy) with a hearty triple layered toasted sandwich to soak it up with. Being slightly too early to order a beer (€3.50!) I settled for a couple of warming lattes to help defrost my fingers and mind. A fleeting visit, but one I'd gladly do again no matter the weather!

Ive only ever been there to watch football matches. This is the good part of the place as it had 15 screens. So no matter how busy it gets you are not going to miss much which turned out to be a nuisance tonight with such a bad match. They serve food and have a cocktail list and the pub is comfortable. The reason I gave it a bad review is pretty simple. Some of the people in there are not very friendly. There was quite a few pill popping chungfelas throwing bar mats at chungwans across the floor. Scary stuff;-). That was probably harmless fun but as one of my friends said, I wouldnt like to get drunk in here.

Anyway, we arrived in Ireland today, struggled with the car rental place, got situated in our hotel room, and went out for an Irish stout and a meal. And despite Cian's review, we went here anyway because it had a 4.3 on google. This was our first meal ever in Ireland! My wife ordered fish and chips. She loved it and let me try some. It was excellent. I ordered the ribs. A knife was included with the cutlery. The knife was totally unnecessary. The ribs were tender and you can simply pull it apart. They were delicious. The Guinness was my first ever on tap. Now I see what the big deal is about a Guinness draught. We may need to return to Ireland just for that. Thank you Molloys for getting us off to a great start on our Irish "holiday" (we call it "vacation").

Ive been to the mill over the last 10 years and for the first time I've had to turn away the food…read more I ordered a Caesar salad with crispy bacon as a starter and what I had placed in front of me was more like a soup. Way to much dressing, No croutons and soft bacon and soggy lettuce. It was terrible nothing as described on the menu. Next I ordered a cajun chicken burger with no tomato. What again was presented was a chargrilled chicken breast with no Cajun, 2 small pieces of lettuce and the bottom bun covered in relish that tasted horiffic. I've been ordering the same meal when I've gone in the last few years and normally the Cajun burger has a fantastic Cajun sauce, lettuce and onion rings on it. I recommended it to a lot of people. Not any more, I'm not sure who made it but it was clearly not what was described on the menu. Service was very slow when normally quite fast. I said it to the waiter and all he said was sorry about that and I still had to pay for that meal. This is the first time I can say I've been unhappy with any meal I've bought here or elsewhere but it was that bad I had to say something. Please do something about this as the quality of the food has just plummeted. I wouldn't recommend this again

We saw other people eating so we knew they served food. We ended up being waited on by every wait staff member, not sure if they work as a team or that no one in particular wanted to serve us. My daughter ordered the chicken tenders and fries and I ordered the nachos. Her tenders and fries were great and they were served with sweet and sour sauce. I ordered the nachos with fajita chicken. The nachos were gross. They don't make their own tortilla chips, they used prepackaged, Doritos style tortilla chips. The sour cream looked old and dry but it didn't smell bad and guac was not guac. The fajitas were not fajitas either. Just chunks of dry white chicken meat spread over the chips. I didn't really expect they would do nachos well but I was homesick for something from home. I was really let down. Service was just ok.

It was smaller than expected and drowned in dressing that had too much anchovies seasoning in it. 16.25 For my main I had ordered the chow mein with shrimp... it came with chicken instead...lacked salt as flavor or was cooked with something that wasn't soy sauce. The second person in the part ordered a ribeye special medium and both of them came out well done...the nachos were better the steak... the third person ordered a single ribeye medium rare came out ok but the creamy mashed potatoes were drier the Sahara and had almost no flavor...I've had better cafeteria mashed potatoes than these...needless to say you cannot screw up a can of coke... I guess there regular cook was off this evening but our food experience was just bad here. Maybe it's better on the weekend, maybe the burgers are better but. Steer clear of the rib-eyes, Caesar salad and chow mein. I am never coming back as you can only break my heart once.

The authentic Irish pub experience - loud, crowded, lots of cheerful patrons, friendly service,…read moreplenty choices for drinks and large portions of delicious food. This was my first meal in Ireland, and my first experience of Guinness 0.0. We were lucky to be given the last table, as it was Friday night, and there were bus-loads of tourists (for upstairs space). Guinness 0.0 turned out to be too bitter for me, but my husband happily finished my pint, after finishing his own. I was then recommended to try their alcohol-free Chardonnay, which was very nice and more suited my palate. One usually goes to a pub to drink with friends, and wouldn't expect much from the food offerings, but this place obviously puts a lot of thought and effort into their cooking, both in taste and in presentation. Good drinks, good food, and good company, in a loud and happy space - a perfect Irish experience!

There's a lot to choose from, so much so that I actually didn't know what to choose! I ended up going for the hamburger chips and a drink for €7. The hamburger was ok- the toppings were kind of thrown on it & I wasn't crazy about the meat.. It tasted more like pork than beef. The bap was nice and fresh and the chunky chips were really tasty. I'd definitely get the chips again with chicken wings or a sandwich next time. My mam got a chilli that came with rice. For €6 you really couldn't fall out with it. It was a bit plain appearance wise and wouldn't have done any harm to serve it with a couple of nachos just to dress it up a bit but my mam was happy enough. The staff were extremely warm and welcoming which was really nice. The place itself has a food area and then an area that's more like the bar part. There's about 3 30-40 inch screens around the place and one of those big projector style screens so I'd say this place would be a great spot to watch a match. I plan a trip back here when there is a match on and I think I'll get one of their baskets. I'll update my review then. Would recommend.
