  On a number of visits to the Brock Inn we were delighted with the athmosphere  and service,food was superb,on our last visit around 8pm on a friday night, as usual greeted with total respect from the amazing staff,8 diners really hungry what a selection of food. pasta’s ,fresh fish,roast beef,my favourite leg of lamb with fresh mint sauce all the food was piping hot excellent service, our guests from the uk enjoyed their first decent meal in Dublin situated @ the back of Dublin Airport a very quaint restaurant/pub plenty of parking space my advice book in advance.Thank you everyone @ The Brock Inn.

  NOT A WORLD OF FLAVOUR FOR VEGETARIANS.MENU FAILS if you like satisfying crispy creamy cheesy dishes like Macaroni Cheese or Salmon Encroute, Veg Lasagnes or Leek & Goats Cheese Encroutes etc. I have tried their Encroute Pies but the pastry was very thin and I would consider them to be just more like unsatisfying parcels rather than crunchy crispy puff pastry. Rice accompanying curry was not usual rice and was less enjoyable than the normal according to another.Advice to Management – €7 Desserts could be €4.50 & would sell better, although Pavlova beautiful the other desserts are generally dry, small & lacking flavour.Surroundings comfortable & not too noisy. Can be nice or disappointing as standards vary but are usually good. Prices are Inflated on many items so easy to overspend.Re-visit Menu as lots of people love fish but are not seafood eaters, and mains do not cater Vegetarians too well. Pasta in mushroom sauce, or alternatively with sundried tomato or whatever is dull dull dull. The Veg Pie was NOT as good as either shop bought, nor my own Cauliflower Cheese or Linda McCartney Leek Encroutes or similar. There are lots of Fish-Eating Vegetarians as well as people who eat meat but love cheesy carbohydrate dishes too.The menu is large but there are overlaps of similar dishes. The mains are much better than the desserts or starters enjoyment-wise but also value & portion-wise generally. The staff are mostly friendly but it can get busy & people may disappear or not look at customers so unless they come near enough it can be irritating. They usually ask once but not always if it’s all good etc. I have found that they can forget to bring the sauce accompanying the mains if busy or if sauce not ready yet they may arrive with the dinner! You can end up being forgotten, and can be mean with sauce, even if you ask for more. The banoffee and pavlova desserts are best, the others are not nice and are very very very (really very!) mean portions costing €7 with cream sparingly applied as if served up by the leader of a dieter’s group. Serviettes are the same problem with one being given often for 2 – 3 courses or if you are lucky maybe another one but with some of the food already on it upon arrival. The serviettes are small and thin so one per course would make things easier.Paninis could be offered with Roasted Veg Onion, Seasoning & Goat’s Cheese. I have been advised someone likes a Meat with Red Onion Marmalade & Cheese Panini.

  I’ve been here a few times for a Sunday dinner or a family meet up. I absolutely love there Sunday dinner! It’s so tasty and filling..It’s a nice cosy and relaxed pub atmosphere and the staff are always quite friendly and helpful! The food is great value for money and very reasonable priced! 🙂
