I would normally have the chicken stirfry with noodles which is lovely. There chicken curry and chicken fajita are also amazing. My all time favorite here is the sweet chili beef wrap with chips and side salad. On Sunday there roast beef is top class. Portions are always huge and if you have room after mains they have a wide selection of deserts. All staff are really very nice and i would rate this place 10 out of 10. Keep up the good work guys

I was hoping for an Irish pub experience and totally got it from The Stag's Head. Even the name…read morefulfilled expectations! The decor is exactly what I imagined, complete with stained glass and a real stag's head. Ordered the fish and chips, which were crisp on the outside with a flavorful batter, and tender fish on the inside. It also came with a nice little pea salad, with mushy peas and whole peas together with the greens. I definitely need to make this! Also got the Irish Cottage Pie and it was very tasty - rich in flavor but lighter than I expected, in a good way. Shared a pint of Guiness (just missed splitting the G - lol) and finished with an Irish coffee, which hit the spot. This is definitely a great place to go for a quiet pint or for a fun night of food and friends.

We got their fish & chips and Irish Cottage Pie. Both were very good and filling. Fish was nicely breaded and fried. Good flavor in their batter. Cottage pie was full of flavor but not overly rich. Great atmosphere and food/drinks. Lots of pubs to choose from in Dublin - Stag's Head is worthy of a visit.

Tonight is our first night in Ireland, and we are staying at the Bothar B&B. Upon recommendation of…read morethe hostess, we walked here with the intent to have a pint with dinner. We were surprised to be offered a free pint since Guinness was having a promotion to sample their new lager. Yes, Guinness has a lager! I ordered the roast beef evening special, and for €11.50, couldn't beat it! The meat was a little dry and the gravy was scarce, but they included various greens and quick service. The environment is very relaxing, and we were welcomed even though we showed up near closing. Recommend for a good dinner for a weary tourist!!

Ordered the 10oz sirloin steak, came with mushrooms and onions, mashed potatoes and gravy, and fries in a separate bowl! It was amazing and I could barely finish it, had some help with my boyfriend haha. My plate came out to be €21.50. My boyfriend had the roast of the day, which was for today, roast beef! Came with bread crumbs, similar to stuffing, carrots, 3 servings of mashed potatoes, collared greens; his came out to €11.50 Service was great, and each server made sure we were doing well if we ever needed anything!

Loved our Guinness, but the fish and chips were maybe the worst we have ever had. The fish was gray (not flaky, forget even being fluffy) and oily/greasy. The mushy peas were flavorful and the chips were great and we thoroughly enjoyed them with our pints. The burger looked terrific but tasted like two dried meat pucks with cheese. Might be one of the worst burgers I have ever eaten. I'm not sure if the food quality was this bad because we arrived so late in the evening or if it was because we were not the local patrons, either way it was really disappointing as our first meal in Dublin. Maybe go for a pint or maybe go earlier in the day but definitely don't go at night expecting the food to be good. Three stars because the servers were friendly enough, though nobody checked in once our meals were dropped off. I've traveled all over Ireland and this service and experience was lackluster at best.

Parked ourselves at the bar this place was very cosy, open fire to the end of the room made this place ubber cosy. There was plenty of locals here, place had a really good atmosphere.

Old school, loved it! There was great banter going on amongst folk, the barman also doubled up as a bookie so that had folk very lively altogether.

My husband and I both got fish & chips which were great, and the kids got chicken nuggets and chips and pasta, great big portions and everything came very quickly (though we were having a pretty early dinner, around 5 pm). I was impressed that the pasta had a chunky homemade bolognese sauce on it. The beer menu seemed somewhat limited but that could also be due to Covid and how much they're able to supply at the moment. We sat in their outdoor seating area which is OK - they've definitely done their best to try and stay open and meet the restrictions! I think I will enjoy it better when the indoor dining reopens though as it's hard to make a tent attractive. This is a great little off-the-beaten-track place though and I do hope to be back soon.

Walking through the bar I was sure we were going to a seat at the back, away from the windows, but large double doors opened into a bright modern restaurant, with a wonderful view of the sea through windows that run the full length of the the dining area. The food was very nice, and the view and surroundings were pretty spectacular. The sun was shining, and two horses were cantering down the beach. We went for a stroll along the sea front after our meal. Very idyllic.
