The Ivy House Restaurant Bar

Situated in Drumcondra, this place is very ideal for a relaxing dinner and hard to miss. I went there with a few friends and had the nicest evening. The ambiance was very good and the staff was very courteous. I have to say, I was very impressed with the overall decor and the behavior of everyone in the restaurant.  I had ordered the pork chops which was delicious indeed. The meat came in good portions and were perfectly cooked. I could feel the fat melt in my mouth which created the ultimate blend of flavors. I had a pint of Heiniken beer with that. For dessert, I had the warm chocolate brownie which was heavenly!Overall, this place hosts good food along with good value for money. I would love to visit Ivy House again and I recommend this place to everyone who are yet to try.

This is a handy spot for a casual night, a first date, sports or a few before continuing the night in town. Lovely atmosphere and friendly staff. The ivy also serve good decent pub food which always hit the spot with a few drinks. Portions are generous and at a reasonable price.

I've came here for dinner not long ago and I opted for the early bird menu which is very reasonable priced at €19.95 for a 3 course meal with a complementary drink.. <br/ <br/ For my starter i got the soup of the day, for my main I got the Cajun chicken fillet with was extremely tasty and filling and then for the desert I got my favourite warm chocolate brownie, it was absolutely delicious! <br/ <br/ The ivy house is a nice place to go for date night, a drinks with friends or even a family dinner! It's a place the suits all occasions really : it's nice and cosy and I love coming here around Christmas time! The staff are so friendly and attentive I really couldn't fault them..!

Very tasty food and fantastic value for money. There is a menu that is ran throughout the day until around 5 o'clock, the menu has a great selection of different dishes. I decided to go for the steak sandwich which was delicious, this comes with a side of chips. Each main course comes with a free drink, I went for a pint of tiger. That's a steak sandwich and a pint for €8. Couldn't bate that.

This is a great first date spot. It 's cruisey and has good lighting (ya know that really nice candlelit-makes-you-look-like-a-ride type of lighting? The staff are lovely. You can order drinks on a tab so it 's not awkward with the whole 'oh no, il go to the bar, what would you like ' type of situation. The wine list is great. The food is lovely (plenty of first date dishes such as penne pasta and things you can eat without looking like you face planted the plate. You can sit on the benches close to the door if it 's a Tinder date (easy escape route. All in all, the food is lovely, the staff are friendly and it has well lit exit signs.
