If you're a fan of the ol' grilled lobster or porterhouse steak, then you're going to want to check out Hawksmoor on College Green. With venues spanning from New York to London and Edinburgh, this popular joint is a go-to for elevated fare alongside sultry surrounds. Housed within an old National Irish Bank, this stunning venue has leather seating, dim lighting and original 19th-century features, such as a cast iron dome.

So, what's on the menu? When you're not delving into signature cuts accompanied by mac 'n' cheese or creamed spinach, then opt for a Sunday roast with all the trimmings. Think perfectly charred meats served alongside Yorkshire puds, roasted shallots and lashings of bone marrow gravy. As for drinks, be sure to wash it all down with a lip-smacking concoction.
