Restaurants in D15 doing outdoor dining or takeaway services

    I know there are lots of us in the D15 forum who like to eat out and right now all of our favourite places are temporarily closed thanks to government recommendations for the suppression of Covid-19.

    They'll need as much business as possible to keep them ticking over so that they can re-open when they are allowed. Let's start a thread of the restaurants that are offering meals to take away or an outdoor dining area so that we can support them when we're having a night off cooking.

    No need to mention businesses that always do takeaway as they are unaffected, just places that normally do indoor dining.

    I saw from their Facebook page this morning that Goat's Gruff are returning to their drive by coffee service during the day and takeaway pizza service 7 nights a week.

    On this I saw a tweet that said to try and order directly with the restaurant and not through apps that take a percentage of the order.

    Eatin the cafe in supervalu (blanch village) are taking orders for takeaways. Just seen on their fbpage.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,198 ✭✭✭ongarite


    Rudy's have an outdoor seating area and are taking bookings.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,201 ✭✭✭ongarboy


    I'll be interested to hear how pleasant an experience it will be to eat outside on a late September/October night even with the best outdoor heat lamps as the temperatures start to plummet from now on. We've been lucky the last week but how long will that last? Even last night felt chilly despite the fine weather.

    Rendezvous in Ongar is doing take away and has a few outdoor spots.

    Is there anywhere doing takeaway pints? Was over in Baldoyle yesterday and got some from a pub there.
    Really miss 2 or 3 Guinness at the weekend.

    You can get a pint outside Leonard's so I presume you can do takeaway as well?!

    Maximilians has a covered outdoor area with a patio heater and dividers. Looks a lot better than some of the attempts I’ve seen from other restaurants that have people packed in like sardines.

    I only discovered that place a few weeks ago and it's really fantastic. Popped down yesterday morning and there was a serious queue of cars there.

    You mean Rudys?

    No, Maximilians. Unless you mean Rudys is packing them in like sardines, which I agree with.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 94 ✭✭D15er

    Yeah I drove past Rudys yesrerday and it was pretty wedged.

    I just didn't think Maximilians had the space outside for more than a couple of tables.

    But sure if mentioned already but Taste of Provence at the bottom of Clonsilla Road always seems to be busy. Coffee, cakes, pastries, etc.

    Must check out Maxi's, was in once before and thought the food was lovely but it was tiny, very small to be honest. Haven't seen their outdoor area but hoping it's on social media.

    Looking somewhere Thursday evening for a few drinks and outdoor dining.

    Anyone know why Wetherspoons hasn’t reopened? The other Dublin Wetherspoons seem to be.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,201 ✭✭✭ongarboy


    Seemingly the Clonsilla Inn had huge crowds at the weekend. Whatsapp video doing the rounds showing massive queues out front in the car park.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,651 ✭✭✭✭beauf


    Are they doing food in the car park?

    These guys, The Sambo Ambo https://www.facebook.com/thesamboambo/ were there in the car park recently but it looks like they have moved on to the Guinness Storehouse for December. I suppose once the pub itself was open it didn't make sense to have a competitor for food in the car park.

    They advertised 2 slots of 3 hours.... 4 to 7 and 7 to 10.....seemed like nobody thought about the changeover!

    Passed by The Bell on a walk last night and there was a coffee van there, has anyone tried it?


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Regional East Moderators, Regional North West Moderators Posts: 11,972 Mod ✭✭✭✭miamee


    Went to the coffee van at The Bell last week one night, I had a peppermint tea and half a pastry (shared), pastry was grand. There was also a large burger stand there, the type you might see at a festival or something. I think it was called The Big Grill or something like that, I haven;t tried it though.

    Also, there is a coffee van in the car park of the Clonsilla Inn these days too.

    Any restaurants to add to those doing takeaway this January?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,562 ✭✭✭raheny red


    Rudy's have started delivering. I haven't tried yet mind, just seen the sign outside the other day.

    We have a birthday coming up in the house so looking for suggestions of restaurants in D15 that do nice restaurant level food but for take away so we can pretend to be in a fancy restaurant :D

    I really like Diep in Blanch village. Bigger selection and quality of food is good.

    Had Anglers Rest a number of months ago (Probably closer to last Summer) and was lovely take home option.

    Also not quite fancy restaurant food but Goat's Gruff is doing savage pizza down that direction also. Really nice pizza and kind of my go to for weekly takeout meal (Need something to look forward to at weekend). :D

    Thanks chris, I hadn't thought of Angler's Rest!

    Another one that might be worth looking at is Luttrelstown at home - they do it weekly for collection over the weekend. Looks lovely but a little pricey.
