We just stopped in to have a little snack after walking around Dublin for awhile so we ordered some chips and mozzarella sticks. There were two of us so you would automatically think that they serve four mozzarella sticks right? Wrong, we got three lol, like seriously 3. On top of that they were extremely bland, no seasoning at all. The chips(fries) were good but then again, how can you screw up fries. Was cute here but probably wouldn't come back for food. Wasn't impressed.

We had the lunch special which is two courses for 10.90 euro or something like that. The lunch menu will give you a lot of food for your money and it was all very nice. I had the chicken and doner kebab in lebanese bread for my main which was very nice. The sauces ( chilli and garlic ) are very tasty. I cant remember the names of the starters we had but we both enjoyed them a lot. The waiter was very quiet and polite and the interior is nice. The place is also bring your own booze, which on one occasion led to a rowdy party being in there. So I would look through the window before walking in and make sure there are not any big partys drinking themselves stupid. Nice food, nice environment. Give it a try.

Then at the end of our meal, they offered us complimentary peppermint tea and allowed for us to relax and enjoy our tea. Another bonus, which I only realised when I read the menu, but it's "BYOW(wine)" however, you need to buy at least 2 courses to avail of this. Great addition if you were having a gathering and wanted to enjoy a couple bottles of wine at a lower price.

We did the "early bird" and the price ended up being higher than the normal cost of those items on the menu! The flavor was so bland and the dips were weird colors and tasted very off except for the tdaziki dip. The Mediterranean bowl could have been good if it were served warm with warm roasted vegetables, but it was ice cold. The cous cous royale was okay but could have been better with more seasonings and flavor. The pastine was dry and bland and disappointing. The only tasty thing we ordered was the ginger lemonade which was out of this world. Also the portions were large and presentation was nice and the restaurant itself has great decor, which is why it gets 2 stars. Someone would have to pay me to eat here again lol

As soon as you walk in, you'll feel the warmth and community energy of a Dublin pub: chatter, laughter, and the comforting clink of glasses create an inviting atmosphere that's lively but never overwhelming. My party of four made a reservation for a Monday night at 7pm, and I'm glad we did - the restaurant was almost full, and by around 8:30pm, it was absolutely packed! We were immediately led to our reserved table, which you can book through their website. The menu includes plenty of options for everyone, including fried appetizers, salads, traditional Irish fare, and lots of sides. They don't have an actual drink menu, but our server was more than happy to walk us through what they had on tap; my dad and brother enjoyed a pint of Guinness and a local Irish lager, respectively. In terms of dishes, two members of my party weren't hungry, so they split an order of the Wrights of Marino Smoked Salmon (€12.95) and the Traditional Beef & Guinness Stew (€16.95). The smoked salmon dish was quite a good deal for only €13 - it was a sizable portion of thin slices of lox paired with capers, a tangy horseradish cream, a fresh vegetable salad that wasn't overly dressed (as pub salads often are), and a thick slab of their signature Guinness Brown Bread (more on this later). The Beef & Guinness Stew was a thick, hearty bowl of stewed Irish beef, root vegetables, and a savory broth with a touch of that distinct malty flavor of Guinness. It was delicious on its own, but elevated when paired with the bread (though my brother may have been onto something with using it as a dip for his chips). Another member of my party ordered their Traditional Fish & Chips (€19.95), which was a large piece of battered cod served with a heaping pile of thick-cut chips (fries), a mixed leaf salad, pea puree, and a creamy tartar sauce. The fish was beautifully flaky and moist in the interior, with the crispy batter on the outside lending a lovely crunch without being overly oily. The chips were truly the best we've had in Ireland, with a delectable crisp exterior and a creamy, almost mashed-potato-like inside; perfect with the briny richness of the tartar sauce. We weren't huge fans of the pea puree (we've had better at other pubs), which was a bit bland, though it was a good palate cleanser for the dish. I chose the Traditional Irish Lamb Stew (€18.95), which was another large bowl of filling stew. This broth was a bit thinner than the Beef & Guinness Stew, and had complex flavors of herbs and the root vegetables. The portion of lamb wasn't huge, but the meat was of good quality: it was tender and not overly gamey, simmered to a pull-apart texture. I also ordered a large portion of their Guinness Brown Bread (€5.50) to share with the rest of the table; while I'd normally balk at paying almost €6 for 3 slices of bread, this is award-winning brown bread; thick slabs of oaty, malty bread with a touch of sweetness, lovely when slathered with creamy Irish butter. I do wish that the bread had been served hot, but that was easily fixed when dipped in the steaming stew. Lastly, we ordered the Apple Tart (€8.50) and Bread & Butter Pudding (€8.50) for dessert; the former was decent, with spiced apples in a flaky pastry, topped with vanilla ice cream and almonds, but the real star was the Bread & Butter Pudding: pillowy soft bread soaked in a rich yet not overly-sweet custard, strewn with cinnamon and raisins. A decadent way to end our meal! We truly enjoyed our time at the Celt - it's the sort of place where locals and visitors mingle easily, whether you're there for hearty pub fare, a pint, or live music. It's fairly priced for its central location and generous portions, and a stellar choice for casual meals, drinks with friends, or an authentic Irish pub night!

If you want to experience a true Victorian pub in Dublin, The Stag's Head is a beautiful place to…read morestart. Tucked down Dame Court just off Dame Street, The Stag's Head is one of those rare pubs that feels genuinely historic rather than designed to look old. The building dates to the late 1800s, and the interior retains the ornate features of a classic Victorian "gin palace"--rich carved wood, stained glass, brass rails, and a warm, glowing bar that feels wonderfully preserved. We stopped in around 4:30 pm, which turned out to be a perfect time to visit. There were other patrons enjoying drinks and food, but the atmosphere was calm and relaxed rather than loud or rowdy. It felt like the kind of place where locals drop in for a quiet pint on their way home from work before the evening crowd arrives. The staff were excellent--friendly, welcoming, and attentive without being intrusive. The food was very good (we failed to take photos because we were too busy enjoying it). As a vegetarian, I was thrilled to see the Impossible burger front and center on their menu; it was deliciously prepared with guacamole on a brioche bun, and not an afterthought on the menu. My companions both chose the Irish Beef Burger, and said it was excellent. One thing to know: this is a traditional Victorian pub, so cocktails aren't really part of the program. Expect beer, wine, or spirits rather than mixed drinks. In a place like this, that actually feels exactly right. Other pubs do serve mixed drinks. Between the history, the ambience, the quality of the food, and the wonderful staff, The Stag's Head is the kind of place that makes you feel like you've experienced a real piece of Dublin.
