Best Fun Restaurants in The Liberties

Food was good. Server was quite abrupt. Best food: warm focaccia, loaded fries, arancini, prawns. Crab didn’t really taste like crab. Very good espresso martinis. Not a fan of communal toilets. We were on the first floor and didn’t find it as loud as other reviews mention.

We had a Christmas lunch menu at Kickys on Friday 20th of December and really enjoyed every bite! The service was fabulous and ambience excellent…the set menu had delicious options and we enjoyed mains of John Dory and venison…flavors were incredible! And the rosemary garlic potato side was just yummy 😋 highly recommend a visit here!

We really enjoyed our visit. Our server, Ana, probably the best server we've ever had. Even though she was working the whole floor, we honestly felt like she was our own personal server. Very charming. Very knowledgeable about all the different brews and was even able to recommend exactly which ones to pair with certain types of food. She also took the time to discuss all the other options on tap that we didn't choose and even offered us a few samples to try. As a result we tried other beers therefore staying longer than we anticipated. I hope Guinness recognize the assest they have in Ana. As for the venue.... we liked it. However, I don't understand why they don't open it to the public to just walk in. It's such a hassle to try and book and then stick to that time. Also, the atmosphere reflected exactly that. The place was half empty for most of our stay which was a shame because I've been trying to visit for months (I live abroad but return home every few months) so it was kind of frustrating as it's been such an effort to book a table when home. I know Guinness don't need the money and that this side of the brewery is experimental but just commit to it and open it up to the public without having to book. It would be busier more often and as a result would have a better atmosphere. The Christmas Toastie sandwich was delicious. Well done to whoever came up with that recipe. Perfect. To conclude... Ana needs to be recognized for her very obvious passion she holds for Guinness. Don't waste that. You often hear about what incredible employers Guinness were back in the day and how jobs were multi generational. A job for life they would say. I don't hear that about modern day employees. We'll be back.... Thanks

Socafro Kitchen food was wonderful last night, especially their deserts. Best wishes to them and hope they find a premises to succeed as they deserve to. Another great night at Roe & Co Summer nights, highly recommend for 2025.

Lovely staff, great music and great pints! Great for casual pints with friends
