Visited here with a friend last Friday on a living social meal deal. Even though Hedigans is local to me I hadn't eaten here in years. Great value 2 starters and 2 main courses from the early bird menu and an alcoholic drink each for a total of €20. Staff were very friendly and efficient and the food was excellent value. Will definitely be making a return visit!

I ate here 3 years ago and wasn't particularly impressed. However, we returned recently with a Livingsocial voucher and couldn't believe the improvement ! First of all, the friendliness and attention of the staff was unbelievable. It was like we were guests in their homes. The food wasn't half bad either ! The starters were delicious (soup and an excellent Caesar Salad) and the main courses were restaurant quality. Mrs Slurryhead had the fish which was delicious and I had the mouth watering chicken stir fry. We ate in the pleasantly laid out snug with one other couple who were also well pleased with their meal. There was a very pleasant ambience throughout the pub, which is full of surprising little alcoves, and the staff really seemed to be enjoying going about their work. Phibsboro and Glasnevin have a growing number of high quality eateries which makes the trip into town to eat an unnecessary journey. As we were leaving, a traditional music session was getting underway which we reluctantly left behind us. We'll be back shortly though ! .

I've only really started going to the Brian Boru in the past two months but I must say I am now a regular! They have an amzing beer garden which is nicer than some you see in pubs/clubs in town! The boys in our group drink Guinness and suggest that the Boru pours a nicer pint than elsewhere.... The food is nice for somewhere relaxed and chilled for chats with friends or for a meal with the family. Its not badly priced either and the selection of food is amazing. This place is a hidden gem, I used to pass it all the time but it looked dull from the outside but its not at all! And last night (a Saturday) we passed by and the upstairs was open with music coming out of it so I must try it on a Saturday! The bar staff are lovely too (: I'm 21 and love the place! Not for a proper night out obviously but for chats with the friends and some nice food.
