The Winding Stair Bookshop & Café became a famous Dublin landmark in the 1970s and 1980s. Named after the Yeats poem and in honour of its winding staircase, it is overlooking the river Liffey, with an iconic view of the Ha'penny bridge. As a popular meeting place for writers, musicians and artists, it was a well known hub for debate and creativity with many poems written, novels penned and movies shot within its walls. In 2006, Elaine Murphy brought this much-loved spot back to life as a restaurant, championing seasonal, Irish produce. The bookshop, located on the ground floor, was retained, as were many of the old bookshelves, photos and memories. The room retains its timeless charm with stripped wood tables and floors, and Bentwood café chairs.The view remains as quintessentially Dublin as ever.The food is good, old-fashioned home cooking, with produce sourced from artisans within the island. Drink sare local and international craft beers & wines from stellar producers.

    Ver enjoyable. All predictably lovely. We had a great ivy breakfast and coffee. The table for three could be a tad bigger. Difficult to fit everything on it. Otherwise no complaints

    I booked this restaurant after seeing recommendations online. Myself and my friends were blown away by the food, service and the entire experience. So much so I booked a flight back to Ireland two weeks later to enjoy the experience again. Firstly, the service is outstanding, especially compared to restaurants at home. All of the service staff go out of their way to welcome you and make you feel so at home. No request is a problem, they truly go out of their way to provide you the best experience possible. They have excellent knowledge on the menu: both drinks and food. You notice the closeness of the team as they work together so well and communicate, especially when a waiter/waitress is busy with another table. We wished we could have given a bigger tip. Secondly, the food is outstanding. There’s not much more to say other than book this restaurant if you want an amazing meal. Timing is perfect, not too quick and not too long of a wait between courses. The food itself is cooked to perfection in how you request. I don’t eat red meat but my friends and partner believe the steak from this restaurant is the best they’ve ever eaten. I’ve had the chicken supreme twice and could truly eat it everyday for the rest of my life. Thankyou to the chefs. Finally, the overall experience is truly special. The view if you have a window table is beautiful. However, if you don’t have a window table the experience is still just as good. The open kitchen is probably the best part and the music is perfect for the vibe of the restaurant itself. Not too loud and not too quiet. Even the toilets get a 10/10 from me. Thankyou, can’t wait to be back.
