My cab driver on the way from the airport to hotel suggested this place. He said it was a classic burger with no thrills. Something I have been trying to find after all the disgusting burgers that London serves. No clue where London gets their meat but it is bad. Anyway, I won't rant anymore about that. It lived up to everything my taxi driver promised. The burger was extremely basic but had good taste. No thrills. The fries are basic. Ask for them extra crispy. It is a good, fresh quick burger and fries. I rated this place 4/5 stars based on what it is. I did not rate it compared to my fav burger places as it would not stand up. read more

We were so happy Rick's was open late all the time we were here! Hamburgers, fries, and chicken wings. Not Buffalo, just deliciously crispy fried wings with no sauce on them. They give you two cups one with a great tasting tomato Mexican salsa and the other with white tartar that tasted like it had goat cheese. I don't like goat cheese. These two sauces are for dunking your fries in too. Their fries are thin, crispy and very good!! The hamburgers are awesome too. The beef patty tasted beefy and has a crumbly caramelized texture that is so good. After a great night in Temple Bar Rick's is the place to good before bed! read more

Rick's doesn't look like anything special from the outside. Even once inside, you have your doubts. With its neon flashing sign and black and white checkered floor, the decor is tacky and modest. There are only about 10 dinky plastic tables anchored to the ground and the place is never packed in the day. But at night, drunk people are spilling out of this greasy spoon. The food is really what draws in the crowd. Rick's does burgers like no other takeaway restaurant in Dublin. The burgers have that homemade taste and feel. Big chunks of tomato, a big round patty that can barely contain all the meat sandwiched between the bread. This place is so much better than any of the kebab takeaways and it costs the same. Sure, the counter staff is a bit gruff and shouts your order number when the food is ready, but these people deal with drunks all night so you can understand their impatience. read more

Rick's Takeaway - Burgers Near Me - Dublin, D

How, oh how did I never got a Ricks burger in the 14 years that I have lived in Dublin? What's wrong with me? This was one damn fine cheese burger, and checking in at only 6 euro. Things got a bit messy though as my burger was drowned in ketchup and mayo. My burger started to fall apart half way through due to all those sauces. But...after a few pints...and not having had any substantial to eat all day, I can tell you this burger was almost like a gift from God! read more

Rick's Takeaway - Burger time! - Burgers Near Me - Dublin, D

Step in the door anytime after midnight on a weekend night and Rick's will be hopping. It is perfectly positioned to soak up late night revellers spilling out of the city centre's pubs and clubs. It is a smooth operation and staff members have cleverly equipped themselves with a 'number allocation system' and a microphone to bring order to the frightening drunken mass that descends on them at the witching hour. Friendly chat is guaranteed and the odd sing-song may occur - I was once treated to a startlingly accurate rendition of "oh, bodyform. Bodyform for you...." (remember the ad) by a determined karaoke king who grabbed the mic from an unsuspecting employee! As the name might suggest, burgers are a popular choice. They look homemade, meaty and hearty but I opt for the garlic-cheese chips every time. I can definitely vouch for them at 3am, it might be a different story in the cold light of day. The décor is shiny and diner-esque. You may find the bright lights a little too much after a few pints in a dark corner but you can hardly blame Rick's for that! read more

There's nothing like Rick's after a night out. Must have's are the burger, the fried mushrooms and the cheese fries. It's junk food but it always tastes fresh. The garlic dipping sauce is to die for! It's almost like garlicky sour cream. They grate the cheese fresh. It get's pretty packed after the bars close but it's super slow in the afternoon. read more

Rick's Burger harks back to a simpler time when to be called a burger it didn't need to be harrisa spiced, smothered with marmalade, sandwiched between a brioche roll and impaled with a wooden skewer. Rick's is a fast food joint that serves tasty classic burgers, it's simple menu means you won't be long choosing what to have. The burgers are how I imagine joints in 50's America, they are super tasty and the meat seems to be of a good quality. A meal (incl chips and drink) comes to €7 to €9 and the chips are very good. As far as fast food burger joints go, I'm a fan of this one! read more

Rick's Takeaway - Burgers Near Me - Dublin, D

Now that was a tasty burger! Basically having not eaten for most of the day a midnight trip here was the best idea ever and right on the money! I went for the Hawaiian burger which was packing some serious beef wallop and the chips were pretty tasty - saying that this was after about 7 pints so maybe a return trip would be in order to be able to properly give it a more detailed description. Being a big fan of late night burgers after the pub, this was one of the best I've had in a long while! 9 euros meant it didn't blow a hole in my wallet too read more

So let me start with the positive about this place, the burger I had was absolutely delicious and pretty reasonably priced being under 10 euro. Also the garlic fries were yummy, the bad in short is that it took me a really long time to get to those fries. I substituted regular fries for cheese fries with garlic and paid an extra €2 for it although was disappointed to find the cheese didn't come melted. I asked them to melt it on it and the woman got obviously upset and said they don't have a microwave. I asked her if she could just set it under the heat lamp for the fries to at least soften it and she agreed. She then did not do so (I could see from where I was sitting) and she brought them back, I apologized and politely asked if she she was unable to melt it if I could just have fries without cheese and she was visibly angry having rolled her eyes at myself and my friend before chucking them in the garbage with a fair amount of force. She continued to glare at us and stare while we ate and it was really uncomfortable. When we went to leave and I returned the trays I asked what her name was to which she responded "why?" before she then just said no, clearly because she knew I was going to complain to the owner or write a review due to her outlandish behavior. All in all, the good was great, but definitely not worth the way you're treated to get it. I will never be back to this place and I urge others to avoid it, there are plenty of places in Dublin where you can get great food without sacrificing service. read more

Rick's Takeaway - Burgers Near Me - Dublin, D

Rick's is the business really isn't it. As takeaways go, and late night ones, it's top of the pile in Dublin. Firstly, the food quality is really good. Those burgers are made of meat. Actual real meat. And they're not greasy and they're massive and they're goddam tasty. (So tasty that they're equally as good sober or drunk. Win.) Secondly, the service. Those lads are in there dealing with annoying drunk people all night every night (and probably just ordinary annoying people during the day) They always have smiles on their faces, they're patient and pleasant, and they get that food to you in rapid fire time. If only they opened for breakfast... read more

Ok, here goes a review from an American. I think you have to separate the American reviews from the Irish ones just as you would if there were an Irish restaurant in America. The burgers were okay. Yes, I'm used to pretty good quality burgers as that's pretty much our national food. It's better than any chippy/take away/kebab shop for sure (that stuff is nearly inedible - like the cheapest pre-made frozen patties you find in the grocer's freezer in the states - and you're paying 8 or 9 euro for ONE, ugh!!). So, for an Irish burger shop, yes, it's pretty darn good and I'm sure if I had been drunk, it would be spectacular after some of the burgers I've had out here. Grated cheese on a burger (and not melted) is very bizarre and almost sacrilegious in my opinion. I'd rather have cheese slices (american cheese to the yanks) than that stuff and I hate cheese slices. I'd prefer to have my burger cooked to order but I think that's against the law here. Also, they should give you the option of grilled or fresh onions. I hope this didn't come off as overly critical. That's a lie, I don't really care how it came off. Anyways, fear not, I'm sure you Irish would have a grand time criticizing our restaurants Irish stew. read more

OK so it is not the most appealing of places and the atmosphere is like a bar fight waiting to happen, and it is not the most healthiest of foods but damn it Rick's burgers taste so freakin good after a night on the beer! There are many late night grab a bite places on Dame Street and if you don't fancy a kebab then head to Rick's for a very tasty and big and satisfying burger! Couldn't tell you how much they cost as I just throw what ever change I have left at the end of the night on the counter, but it always seems to be enough! read more

You need to be very drunk to eat here. Luckily, most of the people who eat here are very drunk.

It is 3 AM, and if you are in this neighborhood at 3 AM it is because you probably have had more than 1 or 2 drinks. We were expecting some pretty horrible food, but we gotten to Dublin late, and we hit the bars pretty hard, and needed some sustenance. We were pretty much blown away with our burgers how solid the meat, and overall construction of the burger. The meat was better than any chain-burger joint, they were still open and the place was getting steady business the entire time we ordered and ate. Even the guy who ordered the chicken tenders was happy with it, it was hot and made to order. If I was in Dublin for any serious amount of time I would think about going back. read more

BEST burger I have had since I moved to Europe (two and a half years ago)... the only rivals to it are in America, so Rick's title as best burger in Dublin is safe! And for your information, I went stone, cold sober. The staff were friendly and very efficient! And I was impressed with the rapid filling of orders. The chips... amazing! What I actually loved was when there were some chips left under the hot lamp that weren't quite finished, she tossed them back in to the fryer for a second go... I got those ones and they were golden perfection... the kind that are a bit crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside... seriously... heaven. And the burger was cooked to perfection, it had good flavor, it was juicy, and it was meaty! It was dressed simply with lettuce, tomato, chopped onion (kudos for this), and ketchup and mayo... and that was it... Just as I like it. I don't even mind the interior... it is a fast food place, if you don't like it, take your food home! They do take away and they do it well... my meal held up on my half mile walk back to my hotel... in fact it was still piping hot! The three things I do mind, however: 1) I did think it was a bit overpriced... just under €9 for an original meal. Yes, there was a lot of food, but still it is a burger joint. 2) The size of the drinks... the cup isn't even big enough to hold a can of soda. 3) The ketchup does not taste like ketchup. I know it isn't Heinz, but I had to take a double look at the packet because I thought it was brown sauce! Despite those issues, I did love the place and the food! read more

Rick's, on the corner of Dame St and George's St, is somewhat of a Dublin institution. Sure, it looks kind of scuzzy and unless someone introduced you to it, you'd be unlikely to decide to go there, but once you have eaten there, oh man, you really don't look back. The burgers there are sooo good, probably the best burgers in Dublin, it's amazing that more people don't eat in there when they're sober. Actually, it isn't that amazing, because as interiors go, Rick's is pretty horrible and unappetising. Plus the burgers aren't cheap. But man, the burgers, the burgers. The meat in them is so nice, cooked perfectly, and if you order a cheeseburger, you don't get any of this one easi-single on the burger bullshit, Rick's give you heap of grated cheese on there (and grated cheese is nicer than slices. Weird that the same food can taste different when cut-up in different ways, but there you go). When you're twisted drunk, Rick's is your only man. There's always a good bit of banter in the place too, and it's really good to go there with one of dainty, always nicely turned out female friends, and then to see her with mayonnaise and grated cheese all over her face. Eating messy food at half three in the morning is the great equaliser. read more

I went here for the first time time Tuesday night after an epic night out. And what a good call. The burgers are huge and yummy, the chips fried to perfection, and the counter people willing to put up with a very drunk American. The interior left something to be desired, but I am completely willing over look that for one of their gorgeous burgers any time. Really, go. Sober, drunk, falling down drunk, go. Your taste buds will thank you. read more

One of the most abominable chicken burgers I have ever had, which fell apart in my hands. The chicken tenders tasted like reconstituted chicken slime and the chips were like limp cardboard soaked in garlic grease. And it wasnt even cheap! Never. Again. read more

Is the food good? Yes, but there is no dignified way to eat one of their burgers. They're tasty, but a messy meal! What are the prices like? Pretty good. A little bit more expensive than your average takeaway, but worth it. Good time to go there? Anytime during the day. Late at night all the drunk people crawl out from the woodwork and congregate there clambering at the counter communicating their desire for food via slurred, disjointed sentences that at some point will contain burger. read more

This place easily earns 4 stars because I'm thankful for the workers putting up with my hot mess self. Friend and I were absolutely starving after a few rounds at the pub and we needed food in our tummies to soak up all the alcohol. After venturing around Dublin looking for a McDonalds, which turned out to be a total fail--who knew they close at midnight? Luckily for us, we found something even better and ended up at Rick's Takeaway. Friend and I both ordered burger combos and the workers were friendly and laughed at me endlessly for crying about them not having diet anything. "Diet Pepsi?" ... "No, we're out" "Pepsi Max?" ... "We don't have that either" "What do you have then?!?!" ... "7-Up" The burgers was delicious, and I'm damn sure it's not all due to the alcohol. The patties are meaty, juicy, and so flavorful. Be ready for greasy fingers and remember to pile up on the napkins, you'll need 'em! I had the mexican burger, and although it had a little bit of a spicy kick to it, I don't know what else would make it really "mexican". Chips were decent, and came out piping hot. For around 9 euro for a quick meal, I'm not complaining! read more

I ordered the Veggie Burguer with Regular Fries and it was OK. The bread was extremely soft - which destroyed the entire burguer and got my hands dirty with sauce. Fries were unsalted and not so tasty. Don't know if the price is worth it. Maybe just when it's one of your last options. read more

The first time I visited Rick's was my first night living in Dublin, and there began my exciting love affair. The place doesn't look like it would do good burgers, and it's not somewhere I would even dream of going, had I not been introduced by a (very trustworthy) friend. I get the chicken burger with plenty of the sauce (God only knows what's in it, but it's VERY good) and fried onions. I used to get the chips too, but I find I'm too full after the burger (they're huge). A good thing to note is that they don't have that bread-crumbed chicken 'fillet' in their burgers - oh no - these are real chicken fillets, which, in an establishment like Rick's, came as a pleasant surprise. Delicious read more

I meant to review Ricks when it was put to me do to a list of chippers/takeaway joints. It's a place I'd often meant to go but never did until one night I bit the bullet. The burgers are very good. If you'd rather not taste the rubbery burgers from McDonalds or Burger King then Rick is your man. Just don't order chips. The chips are awful...and to me chips are an integral part of the takeaway experience. Everything else is of secondary importance. Honestly, I won't be back when the chips are that poor. If you like a good burger, then go and you'll probably give the place 4 stars. I'm a CHiPs man so it's only a two for me. read more

So, we tried a place across the street, and they didn't have seating, so came here. The meat quality is good, I will say. However, there were pools of mayo and ketchup on this thing. I felt like I needed to take a bath after eating this hamburger. It made me sad that such a promising meat choice could be so tainted by the accoutrements. Additionally, the place smelled like a swimming pool. It was rather off-putting, especially for 9 euro! Needless to say, me nor any of my party, will likely ever come again. read more

Along with Charlie's, Rick's is a dubious Dublin post-pub tradition. It's over-priced, greasy, and the place is packed to the point of violence of a Saturday night. It's also delicious and entertaining. Little more than an 'American' fast food joint badly done, you get this feeling that Dublin would be less of a place without it - but can't find a rational reason why. Try the garlic cheese chips. read more

I stumbled in here after a late night of drinking because it was the only place open. I didn't expect much--I just wanted to EAT!! Well, I was very pleasantly surprised! The burgers were so freaking good!!!! Keep in mind, I am from the US, where all we eat are burgers, so I've had my fair share. I have to say the burgers at Rick's are one of the best I've ever had. read more

Went here on a weeknight because nothing else was open, what a waste of 20 euro! (for 2 people) Won't ever be going back. Since when is mince beef suitable for a burger? It gets everywhere! Wasn't fond of grated cheese on burger or frozen chips either. Better off taking the 10 min walk to Burdocks, the best chipper in Dublin. Have to mention the toilets were like something out of a horror movie. Staff stares at you while you eat too which is always really fun. Completely unsatisfying meal. Don't waste your hard earned cash. read more

3 stars? Why..well their burger is yum yum yummy...it a nice once every 3-4 months - a grab and go bite to eat..I am not giving it more stars as I am not pro-fast food - Ireland you are getting fatter!!! read more

Cracking burger at 3am, the best in the city at that time IMO. Can look a little unwelcoming but well worth overcoming that and you'll discover the best post pub meal in Dublin. read more

The thing about ricks is it doesn't put on any attempt to be something its not. It is a burger joint and that's it. A lot of fast food places offer burgers, pizza, kebabs, etc and do it poorly. Ricks offers a decent burger at a decent price from a good location for anyone looking for something to eat after or before a few pints read more

This place is gross and a waste of money. My friends and I wanted a quick bite to eat and it was cold and unappetizing. The burgers fell apart and the veggie burger was mush. I got the garlic mushrooms and they looked like fried pieces of horse crap, not to mention tasted almost as bad. Would give this place a 0 if possible. read more

It's OK as a "night burger", but you can definitely find much better burgers and places in town. The buns are big if compared to others, but I would say that quality is not the main feature of their meat. read more

I like Rick's, but its definitely more fast food than anything else. The burgers are lovely here and service is pretty speedy, but the one thing that always gets me are the buns. They do not heat the buns so when you are eating them they always tend to break apart and you end up with a runny mess you can't really finish. read more

Used to be my favourite post pub munchy spot. Went there tonight and was surprised when the food arrived so quickly. When I got home it was apparent that efficiency has taken over from quality. My chips were cold. One of them wasn't even fully cooked and there were less than normal. A friend go a burger which was also cold but had all the normal tastiness you'd expect. A loyal fan disappointed tonight. read more

Good burgers for a decent price, but eating my burger resulted in an all out mess the two times I've been to Rick's! The buns are kind of sloppy so you start dropping your burger all over your plate when you pick it up the first time! Other than that I liked the place! read more

The cheeseburger was tasty, however, when you're sober, this is probably not a place you would trust with your food. The place just doesn't look very welcoming. For a quick eat in your night out in Dublin's city center, it's a good one though. read more
