Skip and go to the chocolate lounge right next to it. More choices and better ambience. Wish we would have seen that place before ordering here. Food was okay, nothing great but not terrible for airport food. read more

The Slaney - The main breakfast choice they have - Irish Near Me - Dublin, D

Have to use the app to order by WiFi is free so not a big deal. Prices here are high for an airport about the same price in NYC. Service is slow and slightly disjointed. The entire place is dirty and needs a a good scrubbing. The food is fair nothing great burger is the frozen puck style not very flavorful but it serves the purpose when your hungry. read more

The Slaney - Burger with cheese - Irish Near Me - Dublin, D

Do you know how food on an airplane is terrible unless you are in business or first class? I've noticed a trend recently with restaurants at airports, and it is that they have picked up on the fact that people have become accustomed to crappy food while travelling. So that now in airport restaurants they can also get away with serving mediocre food. It makes sense, of course, because we don't have much choice, just like on the flight. The Slaney has a nice spot in the airport and good seating right next to the windows so of course, people are going to stop in for food. And the food doesn't need to be good, as long as it is edible. I ordered the BLT which was okay, but also very sad. A small portion of fries/chips came with the slices of bread and a small piece of Irish bacon, lettuce and tomato. Fine for airport food. But if you put them in a busy city centre where people have more food choices would they survive? Not based on the quality of food in my opinion. read more

Almost never give two stars but we didn't research this first - just saw it and tried. Despite the sign saying you'd have your food in 15 minutes, ours took 30 minutes. Food was ok, although simple for the price. Futures meals (egg and salmon and blaa sandwich were cold with soggy bread. Porridge was hot but bland. Don't go if you are in a hurry. read more

Popped in here on my way back to New York. Noticed this place after passing through duty free; it was early and we were looking for somewhere to eat before we boarded our long flight back home. They have plenty of seating and pints on tap. We picked our table and seat, which had a number engraved into it. I went up to the bar, ordered and paid for our food. When you place your order you give your table number and they bring it to you. The service was a little slow and seemed like there were only two people to bring out the food. I ordered an Irish Breakfast and a vegetarian breakfast. Both breakfasts were fine and filled our tummies but it wasn't like OMG this is the most amazing breakfast ever. Just remember this is an airport bar/restaurant so don't expect five star food and service. read more

For airport food, This is he best I've had. I had the ultimate Irish Fry and it was good! Everything was fried well! The eggs weren't too runny, they were done just right! The restaurant was sooo quiet and relaxing (I'm here around 7am). The waitresses and bartender are very helpful and nice! read more

The meat on the nachos was cold but tasty and they left off the salsa. Service isn't awesome at all. You have to order and pay at the bar and someone brings your food out. I mean it's airport food. So I wasn't expecting 5 star food. It's ok for killing time and waiting for a flight. I'd rather have someone come to my table to take my order and refill drinks but that's not how this place works. read more

The Slaney - Club sandwich and nachos. - Irish Near Me - Dublin, D

Surprisingly decent for airport food -- if you know what to order. So, you sit at a table, figure out what to order and go up to the bar to order. A decent system and keeps things moving. Best thing about the bar -- really good Guinness. Hurrah for Dublin! The food is mostly good -- winners were the stew, the bangers & mash (my favorite) and a burger. The fries were decent, but the onion rings were tasteless disappointment. Food came out promptly and you could do a lot worse for an airport. read more

Oh my! This is by far the worst breakfast I ever had! The eggs taste like they powdered and meats were lukewarm and cooked yesterday! I can't even finish it! read more

On doing a straw poll with Irish friends and acquaintances at home and abroad I noted my theory about what we are like to each other on foreign ground or in airports holds some merit due to several folks experiencing the same issues as I shall outline now. We make ourselves out to be such a friendly welcoming race of people yet we seem to avoid each other when abroad or be rude especially in the service industry. I don't know why, I think it's a competitive thing or I'm sure there is something deeper to it, forgetting our past - who knows. The second place we are hostile to each other is like now, in the airport. At this spot it reminds me like what it's like abroad as in the service staff are all, "Bejaysus ain't it great that I'm Irish - how are yah? Where yah from? Ah sure we love the craic!" If you have a foreign accent. If you are Irish you are treated with mild contempt. Again I personally don't have a bee in my bonnet about this and it's been said to me so many times in various settings by friends and acquaintances a like, so I find it interesting. Yet like most things in Ireland we don't talk about things outside the "home", cause "sure what would people think?" Frankly as Rhett says I don't give a damn. Food is OK as airport food goes. Lovely big windows. Tepid inoffensive music on the air waves. And like I outlined above Irish service staff hating on the Irish, we are a mystery race that is for sure. read more

I always approach airport restaurants with a combination of dread and low expectations. Such was my first visit to the Slaney. Lunchtime on Wednesday and the airport was quiet. Deal here is you select your food, pay at the bar and meal delivered to table. I ordered a burger with all the trimmings with chips and a beer. Barely 5 minutes later a very good repast was delivered. It was what it was and good for that. No complaints apart from the price but it's an airport so whatchagonnado? The beer helped. The barman said Ballsbridge prices but with a better view. Couldn't agree more. read more

If you're looking for a quick bite to eat while you have a stopover in Dublin, The Slaney is the best pick. I had a few hours to kill while waiting to board my flight to Paris and had a nice little brunch in the mean time. I ordered the eggs florentine, which was surprisingly quite good! Much better than I had originally expected (we're talking airports here, people!). Also, the best part about The Slaney is that there are several circular seating areas that have loads of outlets for you to charge your phone, laptop, electronics and so forth in. Airports are the worst for finding places to plug in your electronics and The Slaney makes it quick, simple and easy! Try 'em! read more

Breakfast options are limited in the Dublin airport, and I hadn't had a full Irish breakfast during my travels and was really looking forward to one. The food here was not good, and was borderline gross. The beans were just awful and were likely from a can, and everything else (rosti, bacon) was too salty. Toast was bland and barely toasted. At least they had Guinness. Don't waste your money here. read more

Stopped here for lunch during a layover. I ordered a chicken burger and my husband ordered a burger (no mayo) and onion rings (38 Euros). After waiting 40 minutes, we asked someone at the bar if our food was coming soon. Someone went to the back and brought our food out. The burger had mayo on it, onion rings were cold, and my chicken burger (in the photo) was missing most of the chicken. Do yourself a favor and stay away! read more

Fast, pretty good food, good beer. Not too expensive. Not bad for airport chow. My club sandwich was good, and quite filling. Wife had the BLT, same thing. She's taking the 2nd half with her on the plane. Nieces had burgers and BBQ wings, and we're all smiles. If we find ourselves in Dublin again, we'd stop here. I recommend it. read more

I was hungover. We were flying. I hate flying. I needed beer. This is a bar. Bars have beers. I, now, have a beer. Things start feeling better. Winning. I may have had a second. If I didn't, I'm sure I wanted one. I don't remember the bartender. That's a good thing. Well done. read more

Delicious airport food! I was sitting on the second level (The Slaney is on the first) and tried to get food from the sad little marketplace. They refused to serve me and said they were closed for the day. So I ventured down to The Slaney and ordered take away. I ordered the Cajun Chicken Sandwich on their famous blaa bread. I picked it up within ten minutes and took it back up to the second floor where I had been sitting. It was absolutely delicious! I wasn't expecting it to be as good as it was! It was filled with flavor from the seasoning and cheese. The blaa bread was fantastically doughy and tasty. I loved the chips served with it as well. It was an amazing meal... at the airport! read more

MUCH MUCH better than its neighbour (Harvest Market), better food, better coffee. Unfortunately there is a trade off, the service is shocking!!!!, only order from here if you are very organised and have time to play with! top tip for breakfast - order the childrens egg, toast & bacon (plus juice) for a fiver, more than enough for an adult. read more

Worst food ever! Three of us ordered the same thing, served as the same thing but were all different! Everything is loaded with mayo and some barbecue sauce. Nobody in our party of six was happy!!! Two out of sick got sick. Go somewhere else if you want to eat. Great for a drink. Good band playing. read more

Wish I had checked Yelp before I ordered!!! There is a Burger King on the second level and I should have gone there for a burger. The one at the Slaney was soft, un-tasty beef or at least I think it was beef. But since I had 5 hours between flights I wanted to sit down and eat at a nicer restaurant than BK. I know everything is overpriced in an airport, but this is one that is overpriced and underwhelming. Try the food court upstairs if you want something better than this. read more

If you want a pint, not a bad choice. If you want something to eat, do yourself a favor and go literally anywhere else. Anywhere.

I would say that this place is the best deal in the Dublin airport to eat while you are waiting for a flight. There are not many other options... This is the only "sit down" restaurant and it priced almost the same as the other places to eat. Just go to the bar, place your order, take your number and drinks with you and you will be served at your seat. The club sandwich was pretty good and to my surprise I go sour cream and onion (or at least I think it was) flavored chips (crisps) with it instead of boring old plain chips. read more

This place was so so close to getting a 4 star rating until my last visit when they ran out of chicken wings & offered me a mish-mash of chicken wings & their homemade sausages... It was absolutely vile & had I not had such good experiences before that I wouldn't ever go back there. The first time I visited just a week previously I had a lovely mushroom risotto for dinner which was just slightly more greasy than I would have liked... Perhaps a little too much Olive Oil. I don't find the service too poor but as far as airports go this is probably a little slower than I would have liked so if you are of a nervous disposition or in a rush may be best to avoid! read more

It is the airport, after all. My expectations were in check. But, this was decent food and the view was very nice. At the very least, I was super excited to order something other than a typical Irish breakfast. The Mexican eggs with Chorizo was a nice change of taste. The egg was over medium and I'd prefer them over easy, but the spicy Chorizo and tomato sauce were satisfying. Hubby ordered the Irish Smoked Salmon and scrambled eggs bowl. I guess there's an egg issue here because his were "blah" as he claims. Daughter had the Bacon & Sausage Blaa (roll) and she gave a thumbs up! read more

The irish breakfast here is the best!!! Good quality bacon, delicious eggs... For €9.95 at both here and harvest market, the Slaney definitely wins. And I think the traditional for €10.95 looks like it just has black pudding and mushrooms added. read more

Don't get the chicken burger here. I ate it because I was hungry but whoever cooked the chicken sandwiches my buddy and I ordered over cooked them. They were dry enough to think I was biting through a bone. read more

Solid place for a quick drink or bite to eat before heading to your terminal. The rents and I settled in here after going through security and wanting to relax before heading our separate ways. My parents both got an Irish coffee which I'm pretty sure made their flight back to the states enjoyable. I got a standard glass of Chardonnay, but a nice enough portion to have me feeling nice and relaxed after a long week of traversing the Irish roads with my American Sized SUV. Staff was incredibly friendly, and there was plenty of seating. read more

The Slaney is very good for airport food! There's a good selection with Irish breakfast all day. The staff was nice and the seats were comfortable after a long flight. I also got a Guinness and the rumors are true: it's better in Ireland than in the USA. The prices are pretty high for what you're getting, but nothing out of the ordinary for an airport. The system is grab a seat and then order at the bar by table number. Enjoy your food and happy travels! read more

More than 35 minutes wait for: 1 fries, 1 onion rings, 1 salad. Can't tell you if the food was good because we had to leave to catch our flight before the food came. 3 times the food was "on it's way" -- don't eat here. read more

Sat there for 10 mn at 8:30, 3 different waiters busily walked around, never noticing, let alone cleaning, my table, one ignored me when I asked if I could order. I left - airports cafés aren't always the best, but this one could hardly do worse. read more

Awful really is the only thing to say about the food. Nice staff. Not staying for coffee. The view of the runway is nice. I only ate here as my flight is two hours delayed so I'm here for another five hours. The airport in general has bad food. No gluten free bread in this day and age read more
