"This atmospheric Indonesian restaurant is one of my favourite places for a romantic dinner. Make sure to ask for a table upstairs in their ‘Bali room’, adorned with Balinese decorations, where guests sit comfortably around low tables. The chameleon specialises in rijst-tafel (rice-table), where staff light hot plates on your table and several small dishes are brought to you at the same time."

"Mimicking American diners of the 1950s, Irish retro-restaurant chain Eddie Rocket’s does dessert better than any of its rivals. Their chocolate brownies and cookie sliders are widely celebrated, but their milkshakes and malts made with premium dairy ice cream could qualify as desserts in and of themselves – the imaginative menu blends heavenly flavours like Kinder Bueno, Oreo cookie and Reese’s® Peanut Butter Cup."

"Sure it's a burger joint, but I think Eddie does a decent burger – and the milkshakes are the best in the land. Kids are king in this place, with colouring books, kids' menu and a gift on leaving. The menu is more of a treat, but the music and speed of service sometimes makes this the best choice."

"Right in the middle of the lively Temple Bar area, Klaw by Niall Sabongi is simple and rustic and often considered one of the best seafood restaurants in Dublin City Centre. It’s better described as a seafood shack with a small dining area, view of the open kitchen and a menu simply scrawled on the wall in chalk. Locals come here for the oysters or lobster roll, with some dishes changing daily depending on the market."

"Tuck into speciality oysters and succulent crab at Klaw|Courtesy of Klaw. A narrow outfit on a cobbled Temple Bar street, Klaw offers a taste of “crab shack-style dining” in an unexpected location. This tiny restaurant’s laid-back vibe is a breath of fresh, salt-tinged air compared to the hubbub of nearby Dame Street, giving customers the sense of being on island time rather than the centre of a city."

"Hoping to bring 'crab shack dining' to the heart of Temple Bar, this unique restaurant promises everything from crab mac 'n' cheese to lobster rolls in an intimate and slim space (trust us, it's teeny)."

"Some secrets are too good to remain hidden, which is why you’re about to find out about Iveagh Gardens, often known as Dublin’s secret garden. Laid out by the 1st Earl of Clonmell and once a fashionable public space called Coburg Gardens, it fell into disrepair before being rescued and revived by Sir Benjamin Guinness in 1862; the family then cared for the gardens before donating them to the Irish nation in 1939. You can now enjoy a rustic grotto and cascade, fountains, wilderness woodlands, a maze, a rosarium and archery grounds – there are few better things to do in Dublin if the weather is good."

"One of Dublin’s favorite secret gardens, this one is located a few blocks further south of St. Stephen’s Green. What began as an earl’s lawn now hosts a yew maze, rosarium, fountains, and the cascade, a stunning site for wedding photos. A Human Rights memorial bears witness at these gardens."

"A less known spot a stone’s throw away from St Stephen’s Green, Iveagh Gardens is quieter and more intimate. Yet it’s one of the best locations for wedding photos in Dublin if you want a little oasis of calm in the middle of the city. It even has a magnificent fountain."

"The second-largest of the many parks in Dublin, you’ll find St. Anne’s Park between the suburbs of Raheny and Clontarf on the northside of Dublin. And to throw a bit of local celebrity stardust on the site, it was originally part of an estate assembled by members of the Guinness family – namely the descendants of Sir Arthur Guinness himself!. There’s a ton of stuff going on at St. Anne’s and you could spend all day if you so wished."

"Nestled between the suburbs of Raheny and Clontarf is Saint Anne’s Park, owned and managed by the Dublin City Council. Beautiful attractions include a serene walk at the Chestnut park, and onwards you will find architectural follies—buildings that serve as great decors for the park. Including a Water Temple of Pompei found in the banks of the artificial duck pond, a Herculanean temple that overlooks Naniken River, and many more."
