Outdoor Dining Dun Laoghaire, Bray Greystones?

Blondey82

Just wondering is anyone has tips on a nice place to eat outside in Dun Laoghaire, Dalkey, Bray or Greystones areas, basically south of DL and on the Dart line!

I can only think of Hartleys or Toscana in Dun Laoghaire, I've been to both of them.

The Queens in Dalkey has seats outside but I think its a bit uncomfortable?

In bray I can think of the Martello but I've never eaten there and Im nor sure about gresytones

Any suggestions of hidden gems would be very welcome

Thanks!

Better suited here OP (although it dips its toes into Wicklow as well)

The Martello in Bray is good to eat outside. killiney castle has tables out side that they'll serve food at if asked. several places in the Pavillion in Dun Laoighre serve outside.

Juggys Well in Glasthule has a couple of outside tables but they're really only big enough for two people. Otherwise as the poster above has said, there are plenty of tables outside the eateries at the Pavilion on DL seafront, go to the Meadows and Byrne shop on the corner and you'll see them, they're facing the Royal St. George clubhouse.

Thanks Everyone, yeah I am pretty familiar with all the eateries along the Pavilion... I'm just trying to find somewhere new... just being awkward I guess Lol! I shouldn't be fussy in this fab weather!

What about the places in Monkstown, doesn't one of those have a terrace at the front?

Or do what we do. Fish and chips from Borza in Dillons park!

Cafe du Journal does for sure, it's where the green bicycle shop is located in this old (2010) Google Streetview photo. The premises next door (on the right in the photo) is a decent little outlet shop selling discounted sports gear like Helly Hansen, well worth checking out but closes on Monday.

I wouldn't be a vegetarian fan but The Happy Pear in Greystones looks fab, outdoor seating and recently started opening in the evenings. I love their posts on Twitter, their images of their food looks amazing.

Try the other "Martello" in Dun Laoghaire down from Teddys.
A few tables outside and a nice view of Scotsmans Bay

Shame it needs to be on the Dart. The Garden Exhibition Centre in Kilquade has a lovely restaurant with a large patio.

Do Oliveto in Dun Laoghaire have capacity to dine outside?

Oliveto (Kingston Hotel) serve food outside - was there last night for a beer but plenty of other folk were eating. It got a good bit of sun till about 8ish, however it was pretty full so you might be waiting for a table for a while.
