Description

Bailey's restaurant receives mixed reviews, with some customers expressing disappointment in the service and others praising the food and staff. Numerous guests highlighted long waiting times and rude staff members, while others enjoyed the food quality and attentive service. Pricing was seen as slightly above average. Despite varying opinions, the restaurant seems to offer a typical Irish bar experience, with an unchanging menu that might become repetitive for frequent visitors. Overall, Bailey's has potential to improve its service standards and menu variety to cater to a wider range of customers.

Terrible experience, wouldn’t recommend to my enemy. Really did not enjoy my time here. No staff to attend to you, waiting nearly an hour for an order. It was as if sitting on my own meant I did not matter. Their priorities are terribly skewed for such terrible food and service. I wasn’t going to write a review, but after reading the way the team respond to reviews, I felt compelled to back up the guests who gave their honest opinion. It is clear the customer does not come first. No effort to make amends and the lack of professionalism is astonishing. Disgusted by reading through their lack of empathy and professionalism, clearly not suited to working in hospitality. I’d be mortified to work here if this is how my colleagues dealt with paying customers!

We (two couples came here on Saturday night, it was busy so we had to sit at the bar for about 10 minutes and got a drink. The manager then brought us to the table, we were waiting for menus for a few minutes and then finally ordered we were then waiting over one hour for our food. (Two main courses of which were just chicken wraps! Yes i understand that places can be busy but two tables that came in about 15 minutes after us received their starters main courses AND desserts before we even received our main courses. We said it to one of the waiting staff and she threw her eyes up, utter rudeness. We finally received our main courses but no apology or anything. We asked for the bill and a different waiter came down who was not serving us throughout the nearly 2 hours we were there. I mentioned we were waiting over an hour, he went away to his manager Therese and she did not even come up and apologise, he then said the bill is the bill. As i said i get that places are busy its hospitality BUT when the other tables got served before us, it hits hard. Also there were empty tables around so the kitchen could not have been that busy! Would not recommend at all, no satisfaction and rude staff.

What a lovely spot to eat lunch. Anne made us a drink, on request. Best Monaco we drank in a long time. The service is amazing, the staff is smiling and the food was very good (and huge portions). We will be back! Thank you Anne for what you did, you made our week.

The staff are the best part about the bailey. They are super accommodating and incredibly personable. Me and a few others were having quite a bad day and we're playing cards and a staff member came over and started doing magic tricks for us. definately put a smile on my face which was appreciated. The food is reliably good and the atmosphere is lovely. Morern but cozy and pretty.
