What this cafe lacks in comfort it makes up for in charm and the friendliness of the staff. Not a bad coffee either!

Has great selection of food, drinks and some locally produced stuff too.
read moreThis is a gem of a place to stop off for a coffee in Dublin's city center and it is also one of the liveliest venues in town. Coffee made and served by "The best" barrista in Ireland (and one of the best in the world!).

This place is pretty dead. It's been done up pretty nicely but needs to get the punters in to get a bit of an atmosphere.
Food is grand and price is reasonable enough.
Check it out after a Leinster game for it at its best!
High: Location, decor and free wifi!
Low: Atmosphere, hotel guests!
If you're looking for one of the best quality and best value pizzas in Dublin you've come to the right place. Although you can get panninis, pastas and numerous other mediterranean dishes, it's the pizzas that get people coming back for more. Only problem can be the lunchtime rush as if you haven...

The lobby has the best sandwich in this part of the planet!
Comes with a tasteful bit of salad and shoelace chips (for those (un)health consious out there).
Best recommeded pre-cinema snack if going to Savoy or even Cineworld or Screen.

5 out of 5
and 10 out of 10 if it was possible!
I don't think this store could be any better. It's got everything a store, smaller than most peoples bedrooms, could ask for.
You want a fresh, quality coffee or tea, it's here. It does wines, fresh fruit and veg, fresh breads for all tastes a...

This place (i might be a bit biased) is great for the early birds but the pizza is the best in town!
Best tried after a good swim in the 40 foot on a sunday, book table to avoid being disappointed :-)

Tried this place out this week.
We tried the earlybird and it has to be said the service was very good.
The choice of food wasn't vast but if you go a la carte it does give a good variety of food.
Would probably go again but there are equally good places close by so competition is good.
Classy seafront hotel in easy reach of everything Eastbourne has to offer.
Highs: Library, bar, lobby
Lows: Can be pricey, a bit old school

A great hotel but some of the rooms are dated and in need of refurbishment. The spa on the upper floor is also in need of a bit of a revamp in places but the view from the outdoor Canadian hot tub is worthwhile.
Located on Eyre Square it's location close to the heart of Galway is unbeatable...

For one of the best places for tea/coffee or even a glass of vino, check out this place. Its athmosphere is always lively and the only trouble can be finding a table. Prices reasonable for the area and the decor is very fitting for such a historic building. Some nice art work also worth checking ...
read moreThis pub has improved greatly since its revamp. Extortionate prices have given way to sensible prices that make it more student accessible. Food was good but seems to have stopped being open at lunchtime. Great spot if you want to escape the packed athmosphere of Pav or Kennedys.

Highs: Sushi for under a tenner.
Lows: Finding a seat when busy.
The Shelbourne is renowned for being one of Dublin's top hotels. Its recent revamp means more bars and choice. The restaurant is expensive but the quality of food reflects this. While not a place for (the average) student to hang out, its cocktails mean there is a good mix of young and old.

If ever a college needed a decent sports centre it was TCD. After years of students paying for a decent college sports centre it has finally arrived (though not quite as large as origionally planned!).
Its major pluses include a fantastic pool and decently equiped gym with very helpful staff. ...

Biggest screen is excellent for epic movies. Popcorn so-so but worth it for the screen sizes. Can be quite warm if cinema is full but well worth a visit. Also check out the Gresham hotel for food before hand as a tasty treat!
