Eating Out
International cuisine and traditional Irish fare
Dublin offers every style of cuisine imaginable – from Asian to American, Italian to Indian, Chinese to Continental as well as some traditional Irish fare. Apart from restaurants, you can often find hot and cold food selections in local bars and coffee shops. To avoid disappointment, it is advisable to book a table in advance as Dubliners like to eat out regularly and often make a reservation months in advance.
For the budget conscious, it is worth looking out for restaurants that offer a special pre-theatre menu, which usually includes 2 or 3 course meals, all for a very reasonable price. One such restaurant is award-winning Town Bar & Grill, centrally located on Kildare Street. It offers diners a cheerful family-style restaurant with a variety of dishes to suit every taste. Its sister restaurant, Bridge Bar & Grill, also offers specially priced menus with simple and delicious food in a stylish, laid back and friendly atmosphere.
Bang is another modern and comfortable restaurant in the centre of the city, offering a unique blend of warm welcome, exemplary service and delicious choice.
