Great value lunch for €9.95. Have the chicken wings. Not quite Elephant and Castle but really good!

A large fun space with great energy especially during the weekends. Always a great mix of people with fun music. Tip: Try the Rag Trader bar facing Drury Street which is linked to Dakota.

The drink "dark and stormy" is neither dark, nor stormy, but sweet and fruity. But the rest of the drink are awesome :)

Lots of room and a cool and relaxed atmosphere. Great for large groups.

Wifi is fast, plugs near the booths. Good beer, good food!

Clients should be called "waiters" here, as they wait a lot for service. The penne pasta is excellent though.

The 5 euro cocktails are amazing value, not all of them are good, the best is the Whiskey Sour

So many cocktails, nice atmosphere. Music is generally good.

Heaving with young people and popular late at night. Deceptively large venue. And very meh.

Chilled out, decent range of beer. Lacking a good whisky selection

This is where bros in their mid-20's in Dublin will go to pick up women, or at least try to do so. Godspeed gentlemen.

I like the food, v buggy friendly place but service is exceptionally slow. Waiters are usually too busy standing around chatting & pretending not to see you.

Good atmosphere, nice drinks but can be a bit procey
Ale RomeroJuly 4, 2015

Slow service. Very slow service. 10 mins from ordering to pint on table. Also, those craft beers you see advertised on the chalk board? They don't actually have them in stock!!! Shoddy.

Nice bar but expensive cocktails

Bodyguard first asked us about our age(we are 25) and when that excuse did not work,he said my friend was drunk(we hadn't drunk anything yet!).They obviously have something against tourists. Don't go!

Service is extremely slow. Poor customer service. Overpriced. You'll find much better places in the area.

€5.20 for a pint of Heineken - no thank you.

And the award for most expensive pint in Dublin goes to......Dakota. Well, I hope there's nowhere more expensive than this.
