The Lincoln's Inn — Restaurant in Dublin

I cannot say enough good things about our experience having dinner at Lincoln's Inn. My company was having our annual meeting in Dublin, staying at a hotel nearby. I reached out to Lincoln's Inn ahead of the trip to see if we could bring a group of 15-20 for dinner one evening so that our team could get together before our event. They were super responsive, and when we arrived they had reserved a section of tables for us. We ended up with about 16 of us there!

Our server, Jess, was absolutely fantastic! She explained how she needed to put in our orders and how to expect them to come out (i.e. not everyone's meal would come out at the same time due to our large group - we totally understood!). She was attentive and made sure we had everything we needed, and she was also just a delight to interact with! When we asked her to take a group photo of us, so was happy to assist and even directed some of us to go behind the bar. We had such a great time spending several hours with her!

Finally, the food was terrific! Everyone raved that they enjoyed their meal (we ordered a variety of dishes throughout the group). My husband enjoyed it so much that he returned again later in the week while I was working and had lunch, again served by Jess and enjoying his meal and experience. I wish I had time to eat there again before we left Dublin! This was one of our favorite meals of our 2 weeks in Ireland -...

Had a very bad experience here. Was out having a day too myself, shopping some lunch, and just soaking up the city and its passer byes and decided to stop off here for lunch and a pint. The day was so lovely and sunny on saturday just gone !! Got a table outside. I ordered a pint at the bar and was lucky to get a tall table with stool outside. Next to me, a group of ladies doing the exact same thing as myself. I was finishing my pint and over hear a conversation that the ladies had a tab running and were directed by the person that open the tab to order any drinks required from the member of staff that would wait on them. When i asked if he would take me another pint while he was taking the groups order out to them . He told me that i had to go get it myself. Im do wonder why i was treated differently? It was intimate that i was in second class because i was not spending enough or what ? Had 3 pints enjoyed them. Would i go back. No!! Simple because i dont see why my money didn't afford the same attention or service. I am very disappointed with...

Where do I start!? As soon as I entered the Lincolns inn I was greeted with a smile. The atmosphere is welcoming and warm, the decor takes you back to a simpler time. The smooth creamy Guinness flows effortlessly into the tulip glass. Handed over the counter expertly by a competent barkeep. Allow to settle, sip, bliss. Follow it up with an Irish whiskey? The selection beautifully described by the bartender by the name of daithí. The perfect Irish spirit chosen for me based on my preferences. If asked to sum up the Lincolns inn in one word I would answer "impossible" for no one word could describe the Lincolns. It would take a thousand poets a thousand years to accurately describe this tavern.

I will leave you with a quote from the great James Joyce, whose love for the pub was no secret.

"Now, momma said there’s only so much fortune a man really needs, and the rest is just for showing...
