The Woollen Mills has been one of the most iconic buildings and businesses in Dublin for over one hundred years, and to have taken over this site is a serious privilege. Much like our award-winning sister restaurant next door, The Winding Stair, we feel like we are custodians of something very special... a piece of history (James Joyce worked here, how unbelievable is that?!) and we must do it proud! Spanning over four floors and with a glorious roof terrace overlooking the River Liffey. The Woollen Mills is quintessentially Irish, local and of its locale. We want it to be an 'Eating House', a house of food, a place to grab a coffee and bun, a plate of Irish fish and chips, a place to score a casual bite befre the nearby theatres and cinemas or sit with seven courses of Irish antipasti, burrata, crab, lamb or cauliflower steak, overlooking the Ha'penny Bridge with a fine bottle of red or a craft beer. We hope we do it well.

Our reservation was only available for outside and while there were some heat lamps we had to keep our jackets on the whole time. Outside of that, the dinner was tasty and we appreciated the plant-based options. Prices were slightly higher than the food demands in my opinion, but that seems to be the trend of the area.

Lazy menu, a number of the starters are also served as mains. The burger came with only chips a bit of salad would have enhanced it. The pricing and size of drinks available is criminal, €8 for 300ml stout is pure rip-off. I have every sympathy with the hospitality industry but taking customers for a ride will not win you repeat business.
