So this is what you call a labour of love: we've put together a list of over 100 Restaurants with Outdoor Dining in Dublin, so you can enjoy a bite to eat, and a clinky or two, while Dublin is in Level 3 in the Government Roadmap for Covid-19 (aka semi-lockdown). To make it easy to navigate, we've organised them by area so you can find somewhere close to where you are.
This will be a living list, we're going to update it with any information sent to us so keep an eye on it to see how it grows and develops. If you've got any suggestions for good Dublin restaurants with outdoor dining spaces that we've missed, drop us a DM on instagram and we'll add it in.
