Most in my group were very low energy because we had all gotten off the plane that morning. But I am on my last day in Ireland and I still think about the food on that tour. I have never enjoyed an Irish coffee but the one we had was Devine- I went back. The beef stew was the best I had on the whole trip. My biggest regret was that I didn’t wait and take that tour when I was more awake. The tour guide was fun and energetic in a way our group was not. Overall it was a fantastic- highly recommend.

We had the best time on our tour with Francesca! We got to try everything from Irish coffee (best we’ve ever had) to oysters to authentic Irish stew and a sausage roll. Francesca helped us appreciate the food along with history. The tour was filled with old Irish history, Dublin traditions, and recent history so we got a real feel for what the city is like today. The tour took us through some interesting neighborhoods and corners of the city, too. I highly recommend this tour for foodies who want to be oriented to Dublin and get a full experience of what the city has to offer. A must! We’ve now done this type of tour in Barcelona and Athens as well, and Dublin delivers. Thank you, Francesca!

Kieran was amazing!!!! He was so wonderful and knowledgeable. He gave us history, while tasting delicious food along the way. Everything was delicious, we even tried oysters for the first time. My son has special needs and he was so kind and patient with him. This was our best excursion hands down!!!!

This was fun!!! The food and drinks were excellent and Ciernan (sp?) was funny and personable. My only comment is that he might have talked a little long prior to getting started.

It is an interesting experience with food, and it becomes quite a lot of food, so take it slow. The best was the start with Irish coffee. Yum.
The cheese tasing was especially nice too. It was fun to be in a group and watch other's reactions to new tastes too. Great tour guide!

This food tour was one of the highlights of my time in Dublin! I loved the Irish coffee experience and the opportunity to taste a variety of delicious local foods. While I couldn’t quite bring myself to try the black pudding, it was fun watching the braver members of our group give it a go!
The group was friendly and made the experience even more enjoyable. Our guide, Kathy, was fantastic—knowledgeable, engaging, and full of personality. She shared great insights about Dublin’s history, culture, and food scene while keeping the tour fun and entertaining.
I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Dublin.

Very good way to start a trip in Dublin or anywhere. One gets a feel for the city and some of the local cuisine and beverages are highlighted. Our guide Francesca was very pleasant.

Lee was a friendly, welcoming host who was professional and fun! It was obvious that he was from Dublin and was happy to share his favorite local spots which was exactly what we were hoping for. We give him a total of 20.0 stars since there were four of us. Thank you for a great experience! Darkey Kelly’s was a fantastic recommendation. Apparently Karl is on holiday - so we missed him at Lord Ed :). We’d do this tour specifically with Lee, every time and have already recommended it to friends! Thanks Lee!!!

Annette_T, Jun 2026
Such a fabulous selection of foods and drinks. Would definitely recommend it. My only suggestion would be to have an option for the raw oysters as I am deathly allergic to them. Would've loved to have been offered to have them steamed.
Response from Host, Jun 2026

Nicola_W, Jun 2026
The tour was the highlight of our weekend in Dublin. Lee was our guide. He was a local and not only showed us round the food spots (which were brilliant!) but also answered any questions we had and went above and beyond to make us feel part of the city. All the food spots were great, a real variety with welcoming staff. We enjoyed chatting to other people in the group. A must do if visiting Dublin and you will enjoy it more if you are lucky enough to have Lee as your guide!
