This very cosy bar really was an unexpected delight. It has stayed true to its trad Irish style but such added comfort & personality and warmth. I was apprehensive about going to a bar for dinner with my Mum but from the minute we stepped...inside we are enveloped in the warm ambiance which comes from a combination of things I think The design of the bar itself, full of character, traditional in style, but so very very well thought out and maintained and clean. The soft lighting, comfy seating, above all warm welcome from the friendly yet professional staff combined gave us that feeling of lovely warm glow... like hot chocolate and an open fire after a wet cold Winters walk. My mum and I are both gluten intolerant and the staff made us honestly really delicious pizzas. The bases were so crispy I've only had comparable in Italy. The other guests/ diners were made up of I think 2 family groups and 1 small group of friends and 2 couples tables. I think it would. Be suitable for all including date night or any reason.... in fact its worth making one up just to go. Not that you need to in fairness, we had 2 pizzas, 2 lovely generous glasses of Malbec red wine, and one cointreau. The total was I think €44. I am looking forward to bring ing my husband there. The only one problem I have with the place, really, is that it's not in my own home town :) in fact I can't think of somewhere half as nice nearby even in the city... and I live in a lovely suburb of Dublin. Congrats to all the team, I know how much work it takes to deliver anything close to this, I used to work in the drinks business (supplier side) and then the Irish pub design side and its no mean feat what you've achieved. Hope you keep it up and enjoy the excellent rewards you deserve.More
