Your Guide to Hiring Private Dining Rooms in Dublin

Dublin is the epicentre of Ireland’s food renaissance, and what a magnificent city it is! With pretty much every establishment within walking distance of the city centre, you won’t be restricted by geography. You will likely only be restricted by the size of your appetite!

Whatever type of celebration you are planning for, a birthday, holiday lunch, or even a spur of the moment dinner, you are sure to find the right kind of venue in Dublin. Start your search in the city centre, where there are many fine restaurants and pubs with private rooms and out of this world menus. 

Look around Trinity College and then across Temple Bar - these are areas with a high proportion of dining establishments. Check out Wicklow Street’s El Bahia, where the private dining room is actually a luxurious tent! If you continue your search down towards St Stephen’s Green, you can discover many other exciting private dining restaurants, including The Cliff Townhouse, or The Ivy, both which offer a premium catered experience. If you are searching for something more casual, check out the Portobello district, also centrally located, but with more casual places, such as Locks on Windsor Terrace.

For an even more casual vibe, check out one of the pubs that the city is famous for. Temple Bar is packed with cosy pubs with rooms for hire or else you can check along Pearse Street for places such as The Trinity Inn. The venues along Grafton Street will also serve you well. 

Hotels are an important part of the Dublin private dining experience, and most will not be hurting for space as they generally all offer more than one function room for hire. With professional staff on hand, and able to provide all the trimmings any private event might need, hotels are always a sound choice. But in Dublin, the hotels are famous for one extra special feature - the quality of their kitchens. There is an astounding number of very famous Dublin hotels with world-class chefs, including some with Michelin stars. The Merrion Hotel, located between St Stephen’s Green and Merrion Square is a fantastic choice. Plus, you can book a hotel room and sleep off the meal after!

Whatever sort of private dining experience you’re looking for, Tagvenue can help you find it. Let’s get started today!
