Kicky's

Cool, casual and full of energy, Kicky’s is one of Dublin’s most exciting neighbourhood restaurants. A striking pop art–style mural frames the open kitchen, setting the tone from the moment you walk in.

Inside, the space is airy and relaxed, with whitewashed brick walls, counter seating for front-row views of the action and a hip-hop soundtrack that keeps things lively

The menu encourages sharing. Kick things off with bites and small plates, then move on to a tight, carefully curated selection of mains cooked over charcoal. Expect punchy flavours and exceptional produce, from Wicklow venison to wild brill served on the bone - simple cooking, elevated by quality ingredients and fire-led technique.

Dessert is non-negotiable. Kicky’s cult-favourite ‘Irish coffee’ - their playful take on tiramisu - is the perfect finish and reason enough to save room.
