Bastible is located just a short stroll from the landmark St Patricks Cathedral in the vibrant postcode of Dublin 8.
The restaurant overlooks the junction of Clanbrassil Street and South Circular Road in what was once the old Jewish quarter of Portobello.

Chef Killian Walsh leads the kitchen team and creates seasonal tasting menus using his varied and considerable industry experience. Bastible was awarded a coveted Michelin Star in 2022 and proudly retains it today.

Bastible's atmosphere is relaxed and inclusive. There is no required dress code and we pride ourselves on friendly and knowledgable service.

We look forward to seeing you at Bastible soon.

    Superb dining experience. The food and service were top notch in what is a very chilled and relaxed atmosphere. No stuffiness, just slick, extremely high quality neighbourhood dining. Highly recommend it.

    This was my third visit to Bastible over the last 12 months and it was the best yet. The food and wine pairing was unbelievable and I couldn't fault any dish or wine.

    The food as always was fantastic, really exciting and interesting. While the service, food and wine are excellent one of the most enjoyable things about Bastible is that despite the wonderful fare and welcome the atmosphere is incredibly relaxed which makes it a fantastic experience. Outstanding

    Absolutely incredible, full set menu for plant based/vegan! This was our second time at Bastible and it was SO amazing last time, we had convinced ourselves it couldn't possibly measure up. Not the case! The food is beyond lovingly crafted. To be able to sit with my partner having a full meat/fish experience and to have each plant based dish match his own in quality and creativity is very special! It's humorous that a restaurant that doesn't even advertise their vegan menu manages to absolutely crush 2 Michelin Guide vegetarian only restaurants in every way. Bastible is the dining experience we compare all others to. Thank you! <3 Bonus points for making high end food without all the fuss and stuffiness associated with fine dining. I love being given simple cutlery with each new course.
