Nice facilities and like the patio and the views. But one bad waiter kills the whole thing - 25 minutes to get a beer on tap. The waiters carry a handheld point of sale that they can enter your order and a ticket prints out and it can be addressed. The waiter missed my drink and delivered my friends in a timely fashion and I needed to remind him that he missed my drink. 15 minutes later still no drink And I needed to find him and remind him and they only had one bartender and I need to wait another 10 minutes to get a beer on tap. It is simply one of the worst service experiences I have had. And yes I was a server in my 20s and a bartender so I know what good service looks like and this is not the place for that at least not with the person that I had. People that came in after us with a different server did indeed get timely service orders of magnitude better than what we got. We had one round of drinks and ordered another that we never got after being there two hours simply unaccepta
Totally recommended, the place is beautiful, the ambientantion really looks like an Irish pub, the sight to the river is unique. All the food that i order was delicious as hell and i'm not exagerating, honestly i wasn't expectig the food to be that good. The prices might look a bit high but once people see the size of the portion, understand that the price is exactly what you pay for. 100% satisficed.
Needed to get out a try something other than burgers. Ballydoyle did not disappoint. Ordered shepherds pie, was very tasty, it was tomato based, reminded me of chili but tasted yummy. Hubby had fish n chips always a good stand by, not too greasy however they have changed their fries to the "coated" kind. Personally we are not fans of those kind of fries, I miss the "normal" fries. Also out of the beers we ordered so went to the standby Guinness.
