About the Vibe
House Dublin is one of those rare spots that nails the "relaxed glamour" vibe without trying too hard. Housed in two Georgian townhouses on Leeson Street, it's got everything from a cozy front parlour with log fires to a stunning garden with olive trees—perfect for a long brunch or late-night cocktails. The Vesper Martini is a must-try if you're into James Bond, and the wine list is seriously impressive.

Relaxed Glamour in Georgian Townhouses
House Dublin is one of those places that feels like a well-kept secret, even though it's right on Leeson Street. The interior is beautifully designed with multiple rooms to choose from—the Pink Room, Oscar & Percy's, Conservatory, and the garden are all worth checking out. The log fires in the Front Parlour make it a cozy spot in winter, while the garden with its olive and citrus trees is perfect for summer evenings.
The food and drinks are solid, though not groundbreaking. The cocktails are well-crafted, and the Vesper Martini is a fun nod to James Bond. The menu has a good mix of Mediterranean-inspired dishes, though some reviewers noted that the food can be hit or miss. The service is generally friendly, and the atmosphere strikes a nice balance between trendy and comfortable. It's a great spot for a long brunch, a pre-dinner drink, or a late-night cocktail with friends.
Overall, House Dublin is a reliable choice for a night out in Dublin 2. It's not the cheapest place, but the ambiance and the variety of spaces make it worth the splurge. Just be prepared for it to get busy, especially on weekends, and consider making a reservation.
