    Does anyone know where I can get a good carvery lunch in the city centre, maybe around the Henry St/O'Connell St area?

    For the record, the best places in Dublin I have eaten in for carvery are

    The Bell in Blanch/Castleknock
    The Deadmans in Lucan

    I love Anns Bakery. You can get a starter or dessert with a main course for 12.95, not everyone's favourite but I love going in there for some reason.

    You could also try Madigans on O'Connell Street.

    I go to McTurtails on Tara St for my lunch most days, plate is always clean when collected so would recommend there..

    Definitely has to be the Coachmans Inn just beside the airport!

    Bangers and Mash with onion gravy are superb. Only around €9 too.

    Best carvery is in the Submarine Bar in Walkinstown.



    In another life, the company I worked for had the audit for Servequip who installed and maintained pub/hotel catering equipment!

    I ended up going to Nancy Hands, as it was tried and trusted for me, although I hadn't been there recently.

    I was extremely disappointed. The carvery itself is there, but you must sit down and they bring it over to you. I was waiting 20 minutes for my order to be taken, whilst only 2 minutes afterwards to get the food. It was not worth waiting for.

    Next time I am in town, I'll try McTurcaills. I haven't been there in years.

    O'Neills in the city centre (that street of Dame Street) is quite good.

    Fan of Peggy Kellys in Harolds Cross, haven't been there in a while but it used to be anyway.

    pub just up from that has a rep for quality food

    toddys bar in the gresham do a good carvery if you're looking for town...

    otherwise, the coachmans or commiskeys off the navan road get my vote

    sinnotts is hard to beat in my opinion. the portions are outrageous so go hungry.

    Definitely second this. Ate there last month and the food was just beautiful. Not too pricey and the portions are huge.

    Round O ,Navan street aint bad!

    I had some carvery in the deadmans last weekend for a change and I didnt like it at all, scaldy cabbage and mash like a brick, I wouldnt go back again.

    I usually go to the arc beside liffey valley and I've never had a bad dinner or left feeling hungry either.

    Apologies for dragging up a 10 year old thread but it's always been a Xmas tradition that we go out for a carvery the Sunday before Xmas, normally go to O'Neills on Suffolk St but that appears to be closed at the moment.

    Anyone recommend a place that doesn't a nice carvery that you can sit in and eat in these times?

    If the Yacht in Clontarf is open they do a great carvery. Maybe give them a buzz.

    Short walk from Clontarf DART, 130 bus.

    Probably too far out but may be worthwhile for some..... O'Dwyers Portmarnock.


  • Registered Users Posts: 25,410 ✭✭✭✭Strumms


    I’d second the yacht and O’Dwyers
