What is it?<\/strong> After a 7-year restoration and a 2nd<\/sup>\nownership, the 18th<\/sup>-century gallery church turned into an\nunbelievable hospitality business. The modernistic glass-tower, which lights up\nat night, intensely contrasts with the attached classical institution. This\nplace of History had the beer genius, Arthur Guinness officiating his wedding,\nas well as \u2018Gulliver\u2019s Travels\u2019 author Jonathan Swift attending mass. Today,\nthe revamped religious site features a caf\u00e9, four bars (beer garden included),\na restaurant and a nightclub. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want to grab lunch or a casual dinner, head to\nthe \u2018Main bar\u2019 (only), and choose either a light bite (salad, sandwich or\nappetizers) or a main course such as \u201cBaby Back Pork Ribs\u201d or \u201cSlow Roasted\nStuffed Bell Pepper.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A fine-dining\nalternative takes place in the high ceiling \u2018Gallery\u2019 (open from 5:00 PM daily),\nnext to the gargantuan Renatus Harris Organ (on which Georg Friedrich Handel\npractised \u2018Messiah’!).  Order from the\neponymous 3-course set menu or \u00e0 la carte<\/em>,\nand savour the \u2018Basil and Ricotta ravioli\u2019 or the \u2018Grilled Corn-fed Chicken\nSupreme\u2019 in the most quirky d\u00e9cor of the capital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why people love it: <\/strong>Cuisine, staff, and ambiance provide a perfect combo. Vegetarians, vegans, carnivores and flexitarians will find at least one dish to satisfy their appetite. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Price: <\/strong>Lunch\/Dinner at the\nBar: Average to Pricey<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gallery Restaurant: Expensive to Super Expensive (Early Bird Menu From\n5:00 PM to 6:00 PM)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Address:<\/strong> Junction of Mary St. and, Jervis St, Dublin 1<\/p>\n\n\n\n
