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.

Ah Brady's, Terenures busiest and most well known local. Another establishment I might as well have…read moreshares in I've spent so much time in the place over the years. Now theres nothing at all flashy about Brady's, which is kinda the point. This is no superpub. Its very much a local. Having said that its always busy and got a great buzz, with most of the local punters and older folks heading into the side bar. A refurb a couple of years borough the lounge up to date. The back room was opened up and the snugs taken out. Its modern and spacious and never feels too packed. The front room is a bit more lively and always busy on Friday and Saturday nights. This being south Dublin, expect to find the place wedged on a match day especially if Leinster are playing. Great for a pint any day of the week, or on your way out somewhere else on a weekend night.

Mushy peas were not my favorite flavor so skipped those after a taste.

I got the seafood chowder; it was tasty. My daughter got the Smashburger but confessed to me she felt guilty about ordering a burger in Ireland since we had just arrived here from the USA yesterday. She was pleased to report that it tasted a lot different from the typical American burger and she was glad she had ordered it. The other members of our group also enjoyed their burgers and mushroom burger; the only complaint being that they were "messy". So I guess if messy is a big concern of yours you might want to be careful about ordering that. I think though that probably most people who order something called a smashburger probably realize this already.
