"One of Dublin’s buzziest restaurants, Roberta's in Temple Bar first grabs your attention with its spectacular setting inside the 19th-century, steel-frame Dollard Printworks Building, a restored landmarked with arched doorways, brick walls, and unbeatable views of the River Liffey, both via the floor-to-ceiling windows and from the terrace. But head up a few flights of stairs and toward the bespoke atrium-style glass ceiling, and your focus will turn to Dublin’s cool crowd, all of whom seem to be settled into seats around the freestanding bar, or in cushy booths. They're here to enjoy the panoramic vistas and the lively vibe, which is accented by a DJ and dancing after 11 p.m. on the weekends, and to pick at porridge, pancakes, and Brekkie Pizza come brunch. Flag the waiter for a Whiskey Business and an avo toast, and you're set for the afternoon." - Sandra Ramani
