completely fallen for this place. On paper nearly 20 euro for a cocktail is a lot (5 euro above average), but the complimentary Prosecco, constant refills on snacks, professional yet very friendly staff, and the complexity of the cocktails themselves more then justify the price. Well worth dressing up in your finer clothes to come here

Lively atmosphere, super attentive service and delicious cocktails in the beautiful setting of a 5 star hotel in the city centre, not much more one can ask for.

The cocktails were amazing and worth the high price (especially when you include the snacks (almonds and mini garlic pretzel sticks) and complimentary Prosecco). But it was quite difficult to flag down staff to order drinks or get a menu. There was also a large group in the corner that were incredibly loud. For a smallish compact space, it was an uncomfortable volume.

Had an amazing experience at this restaurant! The cocktails were a highlight – delicious and expertly crafted. Each sip was a burst of flavors that perfectly complemented the fantastic meal. A must-visit for cocktail enthusiasts!

A swanky spot for nice cocktails and mocktails. We tried two mocktails that have zero alc rosé, they were pretty good. It’s not cheap, but it’s a nice environment. They can be a bit busy so don’t expect the fastest service.

Hidden gem in bustling Dublin city center! An absolutely delightful experience from start to finish. Beautiful cocktails and tasty food. To top of everything, what impressed the most was the service, 10/10!! Our host Vittoria is an angel! So kind, genuine and accommodating. She also has amazing knowledge of cocktails. Pro tip: You can ask for a certain flavor, taste, ingredient, spirit and she will have it made for you even if its not in the cocktail menu book!!! Wow!!

You deserve it. A decadent place to enjoy a well curated list of cocktails and drinks, served by welcoming and friendly people. Order the Rockefeller, a basil based cocktail is one to behold. The atmosphere was relaxing. This is a treat. You’ve earned it. Enjoy.

Phenomenal drinks, super unique options. Classy-as. Loved all the employees :) Only thing is why all the bartenders men? Let’s get some women shaking and stirring in a white tux too!

We had a wonderful experience at The Sidecar. My stomach was feeling a little off so I ordered a mock tail. Our server made sure that I was happy with what I ordered and even gave me non alcoholic rose before my drink came out. My boyfriend ordered a Grey Goose Martini and said it was wonderful! Usually places will charge equal value for the price of the mock tail as the cocktail and we were pleased that they didn't. The vibe was very gatsby-feeling and elegant. It was warm, comfortable, and we had a lovely experience.

Make a reservation as this place is busy. Service was hit and miss but overall a nice place for a drink before or after dinner. Extensive cocktail and decent wine selection. The olives they serve are awesome. It's going to require an open wallet as it us pricey.
