The Millhouse is your standard Irish restaurant and pub, serving up several classic Irish dishes along with a few dishes with a bit of international flare. Menu and prices are a tad elevated, but all seemed worth it. While the menu featured a variety of items, we went classic fish and chips, and beef burger. The fish was prepared nicely, crisp and fried well. The fries were standard, unseasoned and nothing special. The burger was cooked to order and prepared well too. Same thing to note about the fries. We washed our lunch down with a few pints of Guinness, which were perfection. Service was friendly, efficient and welcoming. Overall, solid recommendation from folks!

The place is dimly light throughout, so whether you come here daytime or night, you get the same experience... Candles make up most of the ambience in here, very inviting! Staff are always friendly, greeting you with a smile and always happy to accommodate you whether it's an intimate table for 2 or a group booking. There is often live music, whether it's a piano player or live singer/band it makes for a nice drink spot at the weekends. Also great for a pre or post dinner drinks! Place offers a full bar so you can get all the usuals you'd expect of a bar however this place is also doing some fantastic things with their cocktail menu... Some interesting and very unique drink concoctions plus let's not go with calling out their unusual presentations, I just got served a gin cocktail in a bathtub with a rubber duck... Was called Bathtub Gin Time which is a serving for 2, oh my it was yummy and refreshing plus topped with a lavender and rose foam, it literally smelled like a freshly run bath tub! I love to visit here and always recommend it to my friends, am excited to tick off another drink from their cocktail menu very soon! Build your own Mimosa sounds appealing, so that might be the next one.

There is always plenty of people frequenting this place. It is pretty busy at the weekends and especially St. Stephens day with the crowd from the Leopardstown races popping in after. Great bar food.

After you are served fantastic cocktails by the award winning mixologists you may be confused if you leave your seat and return perplexed scratching your head thinking 'hmm I'm sure I left my seat here'.

Its new extension dubbed 'Carousel cocktail bar' is pretty unique and if you can get over the awful decoration you can enjoy the revolving carousel bar, see what thats like after a few pints. New refurbishment aside, the rest of the pub hasn't really changed. They still serve decent pints, cocktails and dish up a Carvery lunch everyday. The portions are huge and its no surprise the place is always jammed at lunchtime. Theres also bar food if you just want to have a snack. It's pretty standard pub stuff chicken goujons,scampi, fish & chips. As always gets a big local attendance, Sunday lunchers and the crowd on the way to club 92.

Its not bad for an evening drink either, its fairly quiet in both the bar and the lounge so its great if you want to have a chat with someone over a nice pint.

In the old days Sandyford Village was in the middle of nowhere, when I first moved to the area the…read moreonly public transport was the 44 and 44A bus - a very useful service if you needed to get into town anything up to 3 times a day and were willing to wait for the bus giving yourself 30 mins either side of the expected pick-up time as a reasonable window of opportunity for the bus to show. As a result the closest and most convenient sample of civilisation was in the form of Sandyford House - but a 5 min walk from my house (and 20 min stagger home). It is big and pink and truthfully not the most inviting place from the outside. Inside it is warm, comfortable with lots of different sections and bits of wall made from bottles and concrete (for that 70s touch). The drinks are not crippling expensive and the food (they have quite a big menu) is pretty good. I have since learned how to drive and can go further afield but still pop in from time to time, not a bad wee spot at all!

I'd a session beer, Table, at 3.5% it was perfect for the daytime. I had a snack box of chicken two-ways, onion rings and chips with a couple of tasty dips and my parents had fish and chips. My beer cost €4 and snack box €9 which is good value and perhaps a response to the chain that shall not be named who have set up down the road. I'll definitely call out again when I get the chance.

But then again, maybe the fact that it's more like a local pub does add to its charme. It goes over two builidngs so you can sit in the smaller part or a bigger part - as well depending if you want to see a match on the big screen or not. The prices are average niveau and their craft beer is normal price too. But their Saturday offer for 2 mains for 1 on a Saturday (4-9pm) is unbeatable. I tried their beef burger and their snack box (not the same night!). And enjoyed both. But I was definitely pleasently surprised by the snack box for €9. Both for the presentation (see the picture I took) and the size. I was well fed afterwards and I was hungry when I came in.

Paid an unplanned visit to the Beacon tonight and was very impressed. Having lived nearby for years…read moreand never darkening its doors was nice to finally see the place. For those of you not familiar with The Beacon complex, it forms a huge chunk of part of the Sandyford industrial estate. With a private hospital being the main feature and the hotel next door. Having not stayed in the hotel I can't comment on the rooms but if the bar is anything to go by the place is certainly worth a visit. The Crystal bar is chic and modern and were it in central Dublin probably horribly exclusive.Its not however, and the place feels laid back and welcoming. It didn't seem to suffer from 'hotel bar' syndrome and the busy restaurant at the back had as many locals as guests. We parked in the cosy and heated beer garden or 'Courtyard' and ordered off the mainly Thai menu. Duck spring rolls and vegetable soup were served within minutes and were delicious. Although we didn't have any mains I'm pretty sure they'd be up to scratch too. The Crystal Bar despite its plush surroundings is comfortable and relaxing. So come for a pint and then head in next door for a nose job maybe? Heads up to the staff as well who were speedy and all smiles. With the LUAS nearby its well served transport wise.

So it's a nice place to go for a drink after work for example. It's not exactly cheap. A glass of wine is around €9. But you also get some nice nibbles. I was there on a Friday evening and it was very lively. In addition they had a live DJ. Not sure if that's every Friday, every night or just the odd night. It made the place even more lively but also a bit too loud. So if you go there to have a conversation without having to shout that won't work.
