About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Lively
  • Great for creative cocktails
Drury Buildings is an owner operated award winning Cocktail Bar, Restaurant and Venue in the heart of Dublin city centre.

Above the bar is our lounge and dining room. This cosy and relaxing space set over two floors of the building is perfect if you want to escape the hustle and bustle of town and relax with a great bottle of wine, a cocktail and graze on our small plates and boards.

Our menu is specially crafted to suit the taste buds of all guests while also ensuring that there is enough variety to cater to different dietary requirements.
Our kitchen is a tapas-style cuisine that adds an element of fun and also encourages socializing, with a sharing-style menu.

    The food was good and the environment was very calm and warming. The tables were a little small and it felt like we were on top of each other. The servers were very helpful and warming.

    Nice decor and good atmosphere, expensive considering portion sizes. Some dishes were nice, some lacking, for example, steak with chimichurri was disappointing.

    Food, wine, place, waiter service all very good. But what really annoyed me was being told the coffee machine was closed . This was at 920pm at the end of my meal. Basically because the person behind the bar was too lazy to make it. Put a bad touch on an otherwise lovely experience.

    Very cool place. Great mix of people. Service was good. Food was tasty. Enjoyed it. (Though they do start to move you out floor by floor quite “assertively “ from 11.30pm. )

    The food was overall really good, and the service was excellent. The restaurant was busy and bustling on a Saturday night, but we were well looked after. I'd definitely recommend Drury Buildings as a date spot or for a group of friends.
