Kelly's has served me as my local off-licence for years, and I love this place. The staff are…read morefantastic, the selection is very good, and they offer some great deals. The guys generally pick a selection of wines to put on special in the centre of the floor, generally around the €10 mark, and they change frequently: for example, during the summer, you're likely to find some fruity barbecue wines on offer. Advice is available if, like me, you don't know much about your wines, and they're more than happy to steer you towards value-for-money rather than try to upsell. As a beer man myself, Kelly's is miles better than the other local off-licence. They stock all the usual suspects in an open fridge, but they also have an excellent selection of quality imports such as Flensburger, Baltika, Spaten, etc. They stock some good Irish brews as well, and regularly have five for €10 on some of the good European beers. Better selection, better staff, and good deals. What more could you want? While you could probably find better bargains on mass-produced plonk in Tesco's or similar, these guys have a great selection and know their stuff. As a small local business, they do an outstanding job serving their customers, too. And if you need it, they can sort out your party needs with glass hire, too.

Maybe I have lived a sheltered life for too long but I was positively giddy to be in a store this big dedicated to booze. Amazing selection, great promotions and they do gift cards and I can say liquor in a safe place.

Interior looked very applauding and cosy. With small antique things around. I didn't figure out, if they serve full dishes or if they have menu even.. I saw only chalk board saying sandwich and soup todays special... As for sandwich, I got chicken and salad burger. I was like "since when a burger became a sandwich?". Anyway, food was delicious. What I loved, was what tea they served. I didn't say anything apart from a word "tea" when ordered my "burgwich". What I've got was a leaf loose tea in a pot, not some "Indian road dust" AKA Barry's or Lyons tea. No offence Irish, but them teas are a byproduct when making decent tea, let's just say left overs. Basically what I'm saying - quality tea there.

The hot food, cheese, salad, wine collection and cakes all look delicious. I'm finding it hard to not drop in on route home from work. Take a look inside, you'll want everything.

Whelehans Wines continues to stand out as one of the most impressive wine shops in Dublin. The level of care in how everything is presented -- from the layout of the store to the range itself -- is immediately noticeable. What really sets it apart is the knowledge. On this visit, I was again guided towards wines I wouldn't have chosen myself, with clear, thoughtful explanations around the regions, producers, and what would pair well with what I had planned. It's not just a place to buy wine, it's somewhere you actually learn. The tasting element adds another layer entirely. Being able to experience wines before purchasing changes the whole process and makes it far more considered and enjoyable. It's rare to find a wine shop that balances depth, approachability, and genuine expertise this well. Easily one of the best wine shops in Dublin if you're looking for something beyond the ordinary.

What a pleasant surprise discovering this place when a friend suggested to go here for a late…read moreSunday lunch. I don't often drive past it so hadn't realised it's not a pub anymore. And what a transformation! I first thought from the design that it's a rather posh place but no, they are very down to earth. It's not often that you can get a good glass of wine for €3.50 (ok, it goes slowly upwards from here). The prices for food are on the average Dublin price side - but with very good quality. We arrived around 3pm and the cafe was busy but still had a table for us. It took a bit to get the order in but after that no further hickups and actually lovely staff. And the food! I had a Caprese Salad with buffalo mozarella and thick tomato slices. My friend went for their signature salad and we both where more than happy. I had a glas of South African Chenin Blanc and ended up buying a bottle of it later in the attached shop. We both felt for another treat afterwards so I went for a scone - not often you get one with clotted cream! - and my friend had a passion fruit muffin. Again we were both very happy. I love the concept of having a leisurely lunch in a cafe that is attached to a very well stocked shop that has wines from around the world but also a very decent selection of craft beer. So you can even taste some of their wines or beers with your food. But they also offer to taste their wines before you buy them. Not sure if that goes for all of them. I was a bit in heaven in the shop. Not often that I have seen such a very good selection and variety from around the world in Ireland before I think. I'll definitely will be back. The price for the wines ranged from 9.95 to at least 50.00 - I didn't check all the prices.
