Hi guys, it is summer again, and I came across the same problem this year, I want to have bbq! I went to phoenix park yesterday, only to find BBQ strictly prohibited...I live in the apartment, and I used to go to powerscourt waterfall. But have to pay entry fee there. I am just wondering if there are any places I can have…

Not without a group of people coming up to you expecting to be fed. I'm not too sure but there might be a law about cooking food in public places (I know you're not selling it), but might want to check this site for more info.

I know that some picnic tables in public parks were ruined by people using disposable BBQs directly on top of the wooden tables! So I don't know.. there was a discussion here.

Does this mean you have to live in a house to enjoy BBQ???? unlike other countries, there would always be some park available for this

You can BBQ in the Phoenix park in designated areas this summer.

If you're going to live in Loughlinstown (other thread) then Killiney Hill park might be suitable, i'm not sure if a park warden would have a problem but I've never seen one up there.
