Dublin's most famous pub, certainly in a literary sense, with its Joycean associations. Always classy and fashionable. It's the original Dublin gastropub at over 100 years old.Anybody who is familiar with Dublin pub food will be aware of Davy Byrne’s food reputation, in which seafood is the speciality.If you visit the premises at lunchtime and evening time, you will witness the huge trade which is done in fresh Seafood, Wagyu Burgers and pub classics like Fish & Chips. There is also a full range of Salads and Sandwiches to compliment these and, as often as not, you can enjoy Oysters and Guinness.The classic Gorgonzola sandwich with a glass of Burgundy as mentioned in Ulysses is available every day.Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate strollers/buggies indoors at Davy Byrnes but subject to availability, we can at our outside terraced area. We apologize for any inconvenience.

    Wow! Exceptional service and top-quality food! We can’t believe we’ve only just discovered this place. The waitstaff were incredibly friendly and attentive from the moment we arrived until the end of our meal. And the food — absolutely phenomenal! We’ve dined at many restaurants around the world, but this was hands down the best steak we’ve ever had. After dinner, we enjoyed some time at the bar, soaking in the live music, sipping cocktails, and admiring the beautiful garden view. Huge thanks to Fire Steakhouse for the impeccable service and an unforgettable experience!

    Wow what can I say, the food at the black forge was the best food me and my wife has ever had. The staff was so friendly and very helpful and a joy to be around. They even let me and my wife have a picture with Conor’s ufc belt. We will definitely be going back again.

    Did you know that Gigi's is doing lunch on Saturday and Sunday now?? No, neither did we until we were looking for a good spot to have a Saturday lunch that was not in town at this crazy time of the year. And did we make the perfect choice!! It was everything we experience any time we go there for dinner - the food was so tasty and well presented. The people who work there seem to have a knack for keeping an eye on everything. And the ambience just makes you relax. And the Ranelagh location couldn't be better.
