Had a good meal with my wife. I had the T-Bone steak (closest in the pic), my wife had the sirloin. She'd asked for medium/well-done but it was served medium/rare (which I'd asked for), but they had no problem taking it back to correct it and even gave her another batch of fresh chips as an apology. The food was tasty, staff were attentive, service fairly prompt, pricing was a little on the expensive side, but portion size was really good. Atmosphere wasn't the best, but it was a Thursday night so not particularly busy. We'd travelled to Ireland from Scotland, by road and ferry, and had to ensure we were prepared with proof of vaccination, clear lateral flow tests, etc. When we got to the restaurant they were checking everyone's vaccination status, so be prepared for that - I'm sure this will be the situation everywhere. It wasn't a problem for anyone, us included. We just showed our status on our phone (NHS Scotland has a great app for this). Also, make sure you wear masks inside - Ireland have very similar laws to Scotland and Wales.

Unfortunately this was not a great experience. My review would have been 1 star if not for the nice staff working, and the Pinot Grigio to wine was okay. We went for the 'early bird' option with 2 courses for €21.50 and 3 courses for €25.50. The early bird options were limited with only a few basic (and I would guess poorly selling) menu choices available. I went for the Caesar Salad starter, my companion had the Deep Fried Mushroom Balls, and we both had the Roast Lamb for mains. My caesar salad portion was too big for a starter, the dressing tasted 'fishy', the croutons were soft and mushy, and the lettuce chopped too small. I did not finish this. The Lamb Roast was nothing better than a carvery dinner. Poorly presented with large cumbersome chunky veg, steaming hot meat that appeared microwaved. I did not finish this either. The decor was dated with worn seats, needs a renovation. This restaurant may have been better in years gone by - judging by reviews from the 80s / 90s on the wall. But by now it is relying on its location and the passing tourist trade. It could do so much better.

My parents were here on Saturday so me and I my girlfriend came in late and sat down with them for 10 minutes and manager with blonde hair gave me a rude facial expression and mumbled under her breathe… she expected us to book a specific table but we only came in and talked. But we came here the next day and got bangers and mash and pasta carbonara… food was decent, nothing outstanding. Staff rude again after giving them a tip which shouldn’t be necessary.. music was terrible also, some song by Rihanna in the heart of o Connell street in Dublin… just didn’t suit the environment… if the fancy blue lighting and name wasn’t on this door outside the premises, it would be less popular than it is. Overall average experience and staff.

It was fine eating here, but it wasn't really amazing. The food tasted good, including the dessert, but it was a bit pricey. The staff did their job, of course, but it could have been a little more personal. Also, a couple of tables away two kids were watching a video loudly on their phone and the staff did not say anything about it. Our neighbors had to say something for them to stop. But, I definitely have to say something about their Iced Tea. It's 100% the best iced tea I have ever tasted and ice tea in the Netherlands will never be the same after this. It was really really good, I can't emphasize that enough. That's the reason I'm giving it four stars instead of three.

Lovely place for an Irish breakfast or bap to start your day ! I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of my bap and the staff are so good as well. The food was well presented on the plate. In my opinion, this is good value and well worth the money. The menu is extensive as is the interior. You can sit in the conservatory looking onto the street or inside. Everywhere is clean and warm. It is centrally located on O’Connell Street near to the Gresham. Definitely worth a visit, and reading the reviews, most fellow diners think so too !

We’ve been on Saturday for lunch at Flanagans, we just walked in, everything was so delicious, we had for starters pork ribs and bbq chicken wings and for mains we had bacon cheeseburger with fries and onion rings, as well we got pints of Guinness which we’re sooo tasty. As soon as we will back to Dublin we’re gonna go back at flanagans, P.S. The first picture was meant to be the pork ribs and the chicken wings but we were so hungry and they were looking so good and tasty that we forgot about taking a picture of them lol
