Best place for a decent fry in D15??

py2006

Hi all,

Who does the best fry up in the area? Tried Dunnes in the Centre the other week, was ok but slightly over priced!

Any suggestions? I'm starving! :P

It's not D15 but boy is worth the journey. Couldn't recommend Clarke's Bakery on Cabra Rd (on the way to Phibsbourough) enough.

None better!

Hungry Monkey in Mulhuddart village is very good.

You will find them on FB too.

Roundabout cafe in Mulhuddart Community Centre

Cafe in blanchardstown village beside the jd brownes steakhouse do a decent enough fry, but their eggs benedict is very tasty.

the crowne plaza hotel at the blanch centre does a great buffet fry breakfast.

I never thought of there!

I see the Clonsilla Inn are advertising a fry for €5 Mon-Fri between 10am and 12pm!

+1 on the 12th Lock, very good fry there.

Kay's kitchen in the centre does a good breakfast but I'd say for a tenner

The Amber Cafe - tis tasty.

I find The Hungry Monkey a tad on the greasy side. Not in D15 but Marino, Brams. Scromptious.

Do they do a good fry in the clubhouse at Elmgreen golf course.

Monkey is a bit greasy and sometimes the stuff can be a bit overdone but most of the time it hits the spot very nicely! One of things I miss from Ireland along with Gulios paddy burger.

The restaurant or food diner at The Travel Lodge at the Castleknock roundabout on the Navan Road do a fab fry up-highly recommend it!

I went there once and while the food and service was good, I think it cost €11.95 for a standard fry (the most expensive I've had anywhere). That was a couple of years ago so they might have more recession friendly prices now.

Believe it or not Eddie Rockets do good frys for about 7.95 (i think they call it the Biker Breakfast) but the annoying thing with the Blanch SC diner is that it only opens at noon so unless you are having a late breakfast, it's not really an option.

Quite a nice feed first thing in the morning.

It is tasty but I find the waitress there quite rude. Just walks around with a miserable face on her. Have mentioned it to others and they agree, so its not just me!

I am off down to the Amber Cafe now, it better be good lads!

One word - MASSIVE.

Three of us went down, between us we had french toast with banana and nutella, full irish breakfast and the eggs benedict. All lovely. Prices very reasonable too, we will be going back. Whoever said about the waitress in there having a face on her was 100% accurate as well

The food in Amber is nice but the service there is rarely friendly. Requesting a change to the breakfast usually results in a roll of the eyes.
The only reason I'd go back is for the convenience and the quality of the food.

I'd highly recommend The Halfway House on the Navan Road. They do a kind of carvery breakfast so there's no waiting and you can make as many changes as you like. Lovely food, especially the sausages and hashbrowns. You can also get fried eggs AND scrambled eggs without the drama you get in Amber! :rolleyes:

Their large breakfast is reasonably priced too and even though it's in a pub/restaurant you can get a 500ml bottle of coke or whatever for €1.50 or €2.00, can't remember. Better than normal pub prices for soft drink anyway.

I've been to Hungry Monkey once or twice, I would agree with the greasyness but the only reason I wouldn't be in a hurry back is due to the lack of hashbrowns. They are essential IMO.

Now I know it's not Dublin 15, but Fidelmas in Dunshaughlin is worth the drive if you're looking for sheer quantity! Food quality varies but with all the tea, brown bread and toast you want it's great value for money. Changes to the menu breakfast aren't a problem at all there either.

HPT I've edited out the part where you've very clearly identified someone and said some not nice things about them. I'm not suggesting you are wrong in your opinion, it's just you are potentially leaving yourself open to legal action if they happened to read your remarks.

Gaspode, thank you for spotting that. Much appreciated.

It was incorrect however to replace my comment with "a waitress I don't like". I don't know the staff there or dislike any of them. I believe the updated post is a fairer one and far less likely to result in legal action.

Is the Amber Cafe open on Sunday mornings?
