Wings are to die for. Been here a couple of times now and it's safe to say that it will be a staple venue for weekend fooding. The starters are so big you can have them as a main if you're looking for a lighter bite. We ordered the baby back ribs, wings and fries. Wings are the the showstopper though, plentiful and meaty and the sauce...... read more

Fantastic wings would highly recommend it . Very nice team and we didn't have two wait two long.

Enjoyed a nice dinner here. Felt authentic, honest locals running an honest place. Make reservations for the busy hours.

Had it before and wasn't bad but went today with girlfriend and wings where over cooked and bone dry wasn't asked at end of meal (majority of it still on plates) how it was . And didn't want to give server a hard time as seemed he was very nervous . Would have gotten better satisfaction handing my 50 euro to a homeless person in town .. will not return read more

Check out the chicken wings! This is what I have heard for years living in Dublin. Well they do not disappoint. You get a huge portion of tasty and crispy wings accompanied with blue cheese dip. You will leave the establishment very satisfied. read more

Really good chicken wings and beer but both burgers came well done despite the fact that we asked for them medium well. The place is still worth the visit for the chicken wings but I couldn't recommend anything else on the menu. The service was mediocre at best. read more

Right when I walked through the door, I smelled buffalo wings. Then I realized that every table on the restaurant had an order of wings on the table. I had no idea. I wanted veggies, so I got a salad with prawns which was fine. I also felt like I was coming down with something, so I had a nice hot frothy limeade. Yum! read more

Service was mediocre but the food was good. We had a sweet potato tart for an appetizer that was really delicious and I had the grilled shrimp. My friend had a burger that looked great. Most people ordered the wings and it looked like a huge serving for not too much money. It's in the temple bar area so there are a lot of shops, bars, etc. and we had a good time walking around the area. I would definitely go back to Elephant and Castle again!! read more

Had lunch here. Fantastic chicken wings. The burger was cooked perfectly, no pink, still juicy and tender. Great options on the menu for burgers and sandwiches. Very nice staff. read more

My second time and i decided to go for the burger, i wont say that i didn't like but i should stay with the amazing wings, the burger was so big that was hard to eat i knw that is weird complain about the size of the burger but that was the problem i particularly don't like eating burgers with fork and knife, so go for the wings always they are perfect... If u want to go with thr omelette i recomend as well but dont forget the wings, and for my opinion they could work on the prices of the drinks, but thats me read more

Two stars because of the great glass of wine. Worst meal in Dublin and not even close to being authentic or semi-authentic American food. We shared avocado toast, crab cakes, ribs & fries. Potatoes were great! Service was good. read more

Me and My Future (the hubby) ordered wings and the mozzarella burger to share and it was plenty Good. So glad we came across this place! Totally satisfied. Diner tip: try the wings! I agree with everyone else; not to spicy and not to weak. read more

Great American styled food in Ireland.

Had heard great things about this place but the chicken wings were just about average.

While working in Dublin my colleagues and I decided to try this place. I was pleasantly surprised how good the wings were here!!

Had the Irish Omellete. Was a fan. Attentive, quick paced and food was decent. Need to visit the one in NYC now!

We had the opportunity to visit Dublin, Ireland and found out this restaurant was superb, yet, great atmosphere, friendly staff and of course, the food was amazing. Portions are enough to satisfy your ego. We recommend, ***** stars indeed read more

Six years later, and with annual visits (at least once each year) I can still vouch for this place. The wings might be a tad bit smaller but the portions are still satisfyingly huge - and of course, the flavor is there. Latest visit was on 2014-07-10. Still can't get enough of this place! read more

Nice Restaurant to have a easy and uncomplicated dinner. I was again told by friends that this is a great place to eat chicken wings. It seams to be a very famous place because 20 people were waiting in the front of the door to get a table. Lucky us we reserved a table (Saturday evening). The experience in the restaurant was nice. The chicken wings were ok but I have to compare these wings I was served on Dawson 37. And this battle they are not gone win. Excuse my criticism. But till today the wings in Dawson set the peak ;)... Anyway. The wings were ok (marinated in a oily vinegar marinade), the blue cheese dip was great! The dessert (murdered by chocolate) was nothing special.... Some kind frozen chocolate parfait. One of my friends had the spare ribs which were marinated in a sweet (hoisin sauce?)..In a nutshell a nice experience... To be repeated? Hmmm... Not sure yet. read more

My fiancé and I ate here twice on our vacation. It was that good. We had heard they have great burgers, so when we saw everyone eating hot wings we were confused. So, their wings are awesome as well. I recommend wings as an appetizer followed by one of their delicious burgers. It's a lot of food, but it's worth the extra five miles you'll have to run. I also plan on checking out their NYC location sometime. read more

Very much enjoyed bumping into the Elephant & Castle after a long day. Lovely lamb, good prices. I didn't eat my own dessert, but nibbled on my sister's lemon tart with basil ice cream . . . and want to come back just to eat the dessert again. read more

Fantastic wings, fantastic service. Manager and employees were very kind and manager personally assisted us with recommendations for local sports bars. First friendly place we've encountered in our Eurotrip, and this is the fifth country in line. Highly recommend. read more

Really cute when you walk in. I wanted to like this place. I ordered the avocado toast with poached eggs. Both eggs were extremely overcooked. My boyfriend's eggs were also overcooked on his Florentine. I didn't eat the eggs at all and nobody came by to check on our table or ask how the meal was. Even at the end of the meal nobody asked if we enjoyed our meals. Pretty underwhelming experience. read more

So, everyone loves the wings here (and if you're homesick for America then totally go) but in my opinion they were just average. Compared to the awesome wings you can get anywhere in New York. Was a little let down after the super long wait, but had a great time anyway. read more

have only been here 1 time and suspect by the various reviews that we either picked the best stuff from the menu, or that they have an off night now and then. Regardless, we came for the wings. after being in Europe for 5 weeks, we were dying for real wings which are otherwise not attainable in Europe and theirs did the trick. Its no Wingstop, but they are pretty good nonetheless. Also had their Stilton and Pear salad which was nice. The best part was actually the mushroom risotto. Nothing was cheap, but hey, its Dublin. if you want cheap, find a different European island to eat on. read more

Went for breakfast. Nice wait staff. Pancakes small but good. Traditional then perhaps dipped in egg(?) which made them extra rich. All ingredients very fresh. Would like to try for lunch/dinner. read more

Food was good, simple breakfast. Service was good too. No wifi, credit machine was broken but it was cheap so not a big deal.

Amazing food!! Everything was excellent! The staff are awesome, everyone is quite friendly, although everyone in Ireland is very friendly. Their hummus is out of this world, and the wings are out of this world!! read more

Fantastic service, short wait, AMAZING food! The famous buffalo wings are not one to miss out on when visiting Dublin! Best chicken wings I have tried by far. 100% recommend. Very satisfied customer. Ellen read more

There was quite a bit of hype for this restaurant in the guides as well as on yelp, but our experience fell short of expectations. We ordered a couple specials and then some appetizers including the wings. The risotto we had was undercooked, the spareribs and soup were sub par and lukewarm, and the wings while solid were not the best we had in Dublin. (We highly recommend going to the Beer Market near Christ Church!) Overall it was an okay experience, but not a highlight of our trip. read more

I had such high hopes for The Elephant and Castle. I had stumbled upon this restaurant a few years back on my first trip to Dublin and was blown away. I recently went back, while I was passing through Dublin, and was more than disappointed with the service. Food: I give the chicken wings 5*! I've only ever had the wings here, so I cannot vouch for the other food, but the wings are top notch! Being an avid buffalo wing lover, I have extremely high standards for buffalo sauce. The Elephant and castle does not disappoint. To this day, is have to say their wings are in the top 3 I've ever had! The sauce is different from what you normally get in the states, and isn't overpowering! Plus you can taste buttery hints in the sauce. Service: 1* On my most recent trip to the Elephant and Castle the service was atrocious! My friend and I walked into the over packed restaurant and went to the host stand, and were not even greeted. The male host didn't bother to say anything to us, just look at us with a scowl as if waiting for us to explain to him why we walked into the restaurant. We proceeded to ask for a table of 2, and we're told that there wouldn't possibly be any tables for hours in an overly exaggerated voice, and an arrogant tone as if to say no one can eat at this restaurant without having reservations for months in advance. We were both starving so decided to find some place else to eat, but quickly decided we couldn't leave Dublin without having their wings and went back inside to try to reserve a table for later. Upon coming in this time, we were greeted by a female host, who was slightly better, but by no means friendly. We made a reservation for 4 hours later and went on our way. About 2 hours before our reservation were we're starting to feel the jet lag, and thought we'd check if we could order wings to take back to the hotel room, and not have to wait until our reservation for another 2 hours. We made our way back to the restaurant and there were about 6 parties of people in front of us. The male host who had originally greeted us was walking past, and I thought I'd ask him real quickly if they did take away. I politely got his attention and asked him the question. He looked at me like I was insane for thinking he would have the time to answer a customers question, and walked away without a word. My friend and I came back for our reservation. We ordered our wings from an extremely unenthusiastic male waiter, who basically left as soon as the order left my mouth and only came back when we called him over to bring the check. The only person working in the entire establishment who showed an ounce of customer service was the kind man who refilled our water glasses, and he did so with a smile and replied when I said thank you. Elephant And Castle, I understand that customer service isn't your forte in Ireland, as it is the USA, but I was highly disappointed with my experience there, and if not for your amazing wings I would NEVER step foot in that establishment again. Who wanted to eat somewhere where you feel unwelcome. Certainly not me. read more

We got in to Dublin around 10:30 and this was one of the only places that was still seating customers. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. They have everything from wings to lobster! read more

I love elephant&castle. It has always been a place my family have gone over the years and the food is amazing! The staff can be very slow and tend to get a bit overwhelmed at times, as the place gets so packed. But the chicken wings make up for it! The burgers are really big and juicy too. The best place to stop if your shopping and want to pig out and enjoy some fast food classics. :) read more

awesome chicken wings! i would totally travel again to dublin just because of those delicious chicken wings! read more

Very busy place, is better to reserve a table if you want to have dinner there, we did not do that and we were turned away. We try again the next day for brunch and this time we were successful :) The food was very nice and the service was good. read more

All I can say is that this place is outstanding and it is one of my favourite restaurants in Ireland. It is a beautiful place to eat and drink. read more

Wings are very good, not "American spicy" by any means however. Club sandwich was also delicious and we recommend the ice cream Busy Thursday night; waited 40 minutes for a table and about 15 for them to take our order. I say go during off-hours. read more

Great place for a beer and chicken wings! The wings are really the best in Dublin. I would probably stick to them as a main course mainly because first of all they are quite filling and secondly the other choices on the menu are not as tasty and interesting. I had a burger once and I was quite disappointed. The serving time is super quick and the staff was really friendly. The decor is quite "old-school" but yummy aroma of wings in the air overcompensates it. read more

A very American feeling diner with good Irish oatmeal. Pancake portions were small but the service was friendly. This is the only place in Dublin where I've been served regular drip coffee and not an americano. read more

Not great, not bad. Compared to other places in the Temple Bar area, this is a good option. I ordered a burger medium, but it came out well done and dry. My boyfriend got an omelette (served all day), which he liked. We both ordered sodas, which were served in a really small glasses, which is disappointing since there are no refills. read more
