Reviews of The Counter

N. B. (.

Was a great experience. We were a party of 6, everyone ordered something else, and everyone loved their meal. Was extremely tasty. I had the asian veggie burger on a bed of salad, was one of the nicest veggie burgers i have had in a long time.

P. O.

We got wings as a starter and the portion was just crazy, the taste was good. Custom made burger was a good idea and tasted real good.

s. a.

Good burger and especially the fact that it is halal chicken. Really nice potato fries also and nice and clean with good service. Onion rings were okay but on the whole, good to very good.

D. 1.

Food was fine. The nachos were not bad, although it is a little bit expensive. The staffs were not very helpful, a bit slow and they would keep customers waiting. Food had to be chased for a couple of times after ordered. Food was at average, but due to unpleasant experience and plenty of other options out there, I wouldnt go back.

R. W.

My husband and I love eating here. He always gets the chicken wings and says they are delicious. I sometimes get a burger and sometimes nachos, depending on my mood. I have always enjoyed my meal. The fries are especially delicious and the portion size is very generous.

G. H.

It was really busy when we arrived so we just sat at the counter. The burgers were absolutely delicious. We built our own. They were so good my mouth is watering just thinking about it. Good milkshake choice and cocktails too. The staff were lovely.

N. K.

The food was gorgeous but myself and my partner were waiting 35 minutes for our food and it was the wrong order when we got it. It felt as if some of the staff were new and just need a bit more guidance with pairing orders to tabels etc.

E. C.

Build your own burger is just a brilliant concept. The burgers were exceptional.

A. C.

Busy burger bar in Dundrum shopping centre. What makes this place different is you can design your own burger based on a large selection of ingredients. This is great for those who want to try something different or something unusual. There are plenty of pre set options too for burgers and sandwiches. Fries are proper skinny fries and delicious. They don't seem to take bookings so when busy can mean a wait but tables turn over pretty quickly. Upscale fast food. Have a bar menu too. Food is good and fairly consistent. Large selection of milkshakes and again you can add ingredients to customise them. Service is mixed. Seems to depend on who you get. It was busy when we where there. Orders were taken and delivered promptly but no follow up once the food arrived. Had to go to the bar to Pay the bill or could have been waiting longer. However it was busy. I would return again. Lots of choice in that area for food options too.

O. F.

Got lunch here, service was a bit slow, waiting over half an hour for me and my wife's food. Got the counter burger which was nice but a bit dry and over cooked. Wife loved the chicken sandwich.

M. M.

Burger was pretty nice, but the service was horrendous. We were waiting a long while to be seated, and despite that , the waitress that was looking after us did not work very briskly. She cleaned the table she was showing us to very slowly, and then stopped in the middle of it to do something else, all the while ignoring us. Then, when she showed us to the table, she forgot to give us the service basket thing with the menus, straws and pencils. That delayed being able to order further, because you use the pencils to make the order

S. O.

Went with my sisters and my nephew (2), there was a queue for tables and we had to wait in the cramped area inside the door which didn't have space for the buggy, then were told not to bring the buggy inside as there's no space by the table so we had to leave it in the doorway even though it didn't fit there either. It was very busy inside and there were not enough staff on. They weren't very child friendly or attentive to customers. We had to wait a very long time for them to fill glasses of water and other tables were also asking and waiting. We finished our mains and asked a waitress can we order desserts which she did for us? Or did she... 25 mins later we were still waiting with our empty dinner plates and had to ask again for some service. She took away plates then and brought cookie dessert which was rock solid and burnt. I was very disappointed and won't be rushing back. It would be a lovely place is there was enough staff and they were more attentive.

o. s.

I'm not really a fan of The Counter, everytime I've been the burgers have been way over cooked. This time unfortunately was no different. I created my own burger with organic bison, Brie, onion marmalade, bacon, lettuce mix, spinach and grilled red onion. First of all the reason why you have organic meat at all, is not just for the flavour, but so you don't have to cook the life out of it, and that's exactly what it happened,again. Over cooked and dry. The burger was saved very much by all the other ingredients which shouldn't be the case. I went with my girlfriend, we I ordered the burger, sweet fries and a Coke, she ordered a burger bowl and chips and it came to over €40, seriously bad value for money. I've no problem paying for good food but the price doesn't match the quality in any way. The service however was fast, and the waiting staff were professional. But in regards to the food, I remember exactly why I'm not The Counters biggest fan, and won't be going back in a rush.

T. C.

Service was a little slow but burgers were amazing! So much choice, olives and avocado on your burger? Sure. You can get most things on it 👏🏼 Really fresh vegetarian options which I do appreciate

E. H.

We traveled from Navan to The Counter Dundrum and wow it was worth it can't wait to go and try it again... Southern Fried Chicken was Halal so that was great and the Fries are amazing, my kids really enjoyed it and if kids enjoy the food it means something good ...

S. C.

Had a beef burger with bacon and chips. The burger it's self was only slightly warm I was expecting better from such a place given its location and price. Staff were friendly and attentive. And the atmosphere was great.

S. M.

Beautiful fresh food, in massive portions. Only fault is the service is a bit slow so allow yourself plenty of time.

A. V. B.

Amazing food, very creative menu with how you can completely customize the food to your liking. Friendly staff and a great atmosphere! Would definitely recommend!

d. g.

Not as good as it was couple years ago, quality of food not as good, and they got our orders wrong a couple times. Hopefully gets back to the way is was - those turkey burgers were amazing!

Had a great lunch here with my daughter. Quick and efficient service, friendly and good atmosphere. Food was quick, and cooked and presented perfectly. Great value also. Spacial shout out to waitress with blue hair.. did a great job and was very helpful.

Q. P.

Great burgers and love the build your own burger option

R. S.

Nice food, nice atmosphere and great service!

d. m.

great food. the chicken wings are fabulous and the burgers are some of the best I have eaten. my only problem was our main course arrived as we were still eating our starter. the staff could be a little more attentive and in not so much of a rush to get rid of you. There are to many good burger places around now so the customer comes first.

c. n.

We went on Thursday evening. First visit. Loved the atmosphere. Food was great but the service was abysmal. Took ages to take the order, then when they did some shakes arrived others didn't. I got fries I never asked for and was charged. Half got their food the other half didn't. I would hate to go when it's very busy. Nice staff 3 different served us, but understaffed or just not trained. Not quite sure which....

O. H.

The signature burgers are really good and moreover you could also create your own burger if you want, the price is fair

B. P.

Fantastic food and service. Staff very friendly. Food is great, using a form to make your burger is fun. We went on a Wednesday afternoon and were seated immediately. Pro Tip: 3 network customers get 20% off here using the 3plus app. Enjoy

R. R. F.

Wonderful burger! I really recommend!

A. C.

Decent food. I liked the concept of building your own burger and how the sauces you order come out on the side so you make it how you like it. Staff were attentive and friendly. The negative for me is that it misses a 'wow factor' on both burgers and fries. Nothing that would make me rush back even though it was decent enough, a nice fill and fairly reasonable in price.

B. B.

Food is amazing but service is terrible. Thought before maybe it was a once off but been about 3 times since the first bad experience a few months ago and you're still waiting at least an hour for the food to come out. They also have gotten my orders wrong a few times and never brought out some items resulting in me having to ask twice. Also have never had a waiter come over when the meal is finished to get the bill. Always have to go up to the till yourself to pay because the wait is too long for any service. Food is 5 stars but service brings it down.

S. C.

Yes you can build your own burger but it was the quality of the burger patty that was the best. House sauce is yum. Good standard of service even though they had a few trainees on the go behind the bar that night. Would go again to the Dundrum branch.

C. O. M.

Service was good, sides were good, shake was good. The burger bun, toppings and sauces were all nice. However, both my girlfriend's beef patty and mine were very dry. It was a busy Saturday, but a dry burger is very disappointing in a place that prides itself in its burgers. Scrapes three stars because everything else was good.

C. E.

Great choice of food, the burgers are always cooked perfectly. An interactive experience getting to customise every detail of your burger, from bun, meat or veggie burger, cheese, toppings, sauces and sides. The buffalo wings are also really good, with deals for wings and a cocktail. Their milkshakes are also good, especially adding booze to them. Turkey burger bowl is a favourite.

M. O.

Great selection of food and the options to create your own burger is fantastic. You can choose from the healthy options to the all out fully loaded. It's reasonably priced and good for a quick bite. Will have to try the "loaded" milkshakes sometime.

A. H.

Great food but the service has to be improved. Always take soo long to get the order plus the waiting for the meal. I have been in there several times and it's always the same. This last time I asked for a salad that it was supposed to come with cheese which it wasn't and when I asked for it they just put a tiny spoon of it on top. Also as soon as we finished our meals, they brought us immediately the bill which we didn't request and when there wasn't even people waiting for a table. So rude! I definitely will think twice before I come back to there.

A. B.

Food was nice but was very slow and order was completely messed up

The wait for a table can be quite long, and service isn't great as there isn't a designated server to one section, so trying to get anything after you order, ie extra drinks can be difficult. The actual custom burger is quite good value at €10 for a basic burger.

S. P.

We got wings as a starter and the portion was just crazy, the taste was good. Custom made burger was a good idea and tasted real good. Also I tried mint milkshake with liquor and man that was awesome. Recommended

A. B.

Tried the special burger of the house, "Counter House burger" with parmesan chips. Nice food, but nothing spectacular. Overpriced.

L. M.

Excellent food and service. I have to say that The Counter has the best chicken wings that I have tried in Dublin!

N. A.

This place has much improved since the last time I visited. The burgers are tasty and - while well done - they're not overcooked like most burger joints. Sweet potato fries makes for a nice addition to the meal.

C. H.

Delicious burger and sides for a very reasonable price

M. K.

Great food, very friendly staff, nice cocktails, and a great concept of customising your burger from top to bottom. The only small blemish was slow service at times, but given that the restaurant was really crowded, it is something that does not influence the final score.

S. S.

This is definitely my favourite place in Dublin to grab a burger. You can get really creative if you choose to build your own burger and there's a lot of ingredients to choose from. Unfortunately due to the popular and busy nature of the restaurant you can't book a table and there is normally a bit of a queue but order a drink while you wait, the wait is definitely worth it.

Love this place, brilliant, friendly service, great choice of meats and toppings for your burger, milkshakes to die for, all at a reasonable price, side orders are huge too and very tasty. Well worth a visit if you haven't been, one of the best burgers you'll have, certainly within the area and as good or better as most anything I've had in Dublin

G. o.

Went here for mother's day with my wife and daughter. My wife got a complimentary Glass of proscco and we all found the food lovely. Wasn't as expensive as we thought it was going to be..... it was busy when we arrived thay took our names and told us too come back in around 20 minutes, we had no problems get a seat When we returned. Staff are nice too...

s. s.

Fresh ingredients,, good food!

J. K.

My order was messed up first and the pints tasted like they were sitting for a long time, but In the end the food tasted amazing and the girl with short blonde hair is a very polite and mannerly waitress

B. C.

Great fun making up your own burger, plenty of choices and the results are very tasty. Place could do with a makeover to brighten it up. Staff very good.

S. F.

Excellent food. Quick and friendly service. Good prices and a huge selection of stuff to choose from. Can't wait to go back again. Also the milkshakes were to die for

A. R.

The Counter has a great menu for food and drink, and is in a great spot in Dundrum Town Centre's Pembroke District. What could go wrong? The only real detractions are the length of time it takes for them to make those delicious burgers and sides, and the fact that you can't book a table in advance (although that's fairly common in Dundrum). Still - well worth a try. My personal recommendation is for the salmon burger with BBQ sauce, and some sweet potato fries - proper order.

C. C.

Best burger and fries I've ever eaten!

S. L.

We go to this restaurant frequently and it never disappoints! Staff are great, shakes are really great and the burgers are awesome!!! Out of all the restaurants in dundrum I would say this is the best for quality over price!! Wins my vote for sure!

S. G.

Whenever I am home I go here. Some of the best wings in Dublin.

R. O.

Really love The Counter ! We go alot and it is great for food after shopping or before the cinema! Management are very nice but at times their is a lack of work flow amongst the staff, therefore they can be slow to clear tables and can confuse orders. Still with all that the food is consistently good

C. T.

Great place to sit down and grab a bite with some friends. Vegan, vegetarian and meat lover options, as you can build your burger from top to bottom! Nice chilled vibe and decor

A. S.

Options galore! Vegan burger is delicious. 20+ toppings to choose from, several breads and cheese options too. Would like to see a vegan cheese option other than "no cheese" though but with so many other toppings you hardly miss the cheese

F. R.

This place is great because you can build you own burger! Including the meat of your patty. It's a little pricey though if you want any of the extra toppings.

J. S.

Good food, easy to create your own Burger and you have a lot of options to choose from. Service was good and friendly.

D. R.

Nice place , staff are sound , and the prices aren’t that bad, beef burger was over cooked an so dry. Which isn’t great for a place that basically only does burger

d. d.

Love building my own burger. Banana malt is the best. Raging they took the boiled ham off menu. Cheesey Parmesan fries are so tasty

A. T. H. G.

Very nice burger restaurant in Dundrum. We visited on a Monday evening and it was packed which was a great sign.. looking at other people's tables the food looked amazing and it sure was.. I had a double chicken burger with grüyere cheese, shredded carrots, pesto and chilli jam..and a quinoa salad on the side.. for €23 it was well worth it

This place is great! I have been here many times and every time I come I am amazed by the food. Sure, there can be a long queue, and a long wait for food. But in my opinion. COME HERE

t. a.

Staff are very friendly here. The service is top notch. I'd recommended this place to anyone hungry in Dundrum Town Centre. Go for the sweet potato fries on the side.

Good quality food, though we were waiting quite a while. Great variety of burger building ingredients

n. d.

Very good service, nice food, not the best burger I had but decent enough for 4 stars. Very good overall.

C. G.

Tasty burger and the option to make your own burger - all customized - is very good. Fried onions are delicious!

D. A.

Great location. The staff is very friendly and the food delicious, especially the wings with BBQ Sauce! I will go back for sure!

M. R.

The food is delicious and the music is great. I think the tables are a little too crowded, though. Bit uncomfortable when someone sits at the next table over.

O. O.

Yum - love the 2/3 pound turkey burger. So rare to get turkey out but a great option along with the sweet potato chips - a favourity of mine.

N. S.

Tasty food, good service.

E. P.

Really nice food, the advantage is fact that you can create your own burger. I think I've never had better burger :)

A. W.

Nice food, interesting menu... Dissapointed overall as staff did not make us aware that a number of menu items were not available until 10 mins after submitting the order.

G. F. Z. (.

Great burgers. Super customizable. Highly recommended

K. N.

Amazing place, nice atmosphere, very polite and helpful staff, and of course amazing delicious food. Will definitely be back

W. J.

Good tasty burgers and food in general, nice place to eat with family, some foreign waitresses have psychological issues with other foreign customers - just be mindful of this and keep this expectation.

S. R.

Really enjoyed it. So did the kids. Everyone was happy. Malt shake cost over 5 euro and it wasn't worth it.

E. S.

Would advise burger in the bowl with any mix of things!

B. C.

Great burgers, friendly staff and a good location, bustling with people but not too loud.

B. L.

Enjoyed our meal here, especially building my own burger. Good value for lunch.

G. C.

Really good burgers and you can also create the one you prefer, but we had to wait a lot

P. K.

Very poor attention to detail with the order. (2 out of 4 wrong and one twice!) Food was very good.

K. “. m.

Food is nice, but there's no room to really relax, too many tables and not a lot of space. Even the entrance is tight and awkward

C. D.

I absolutely love this place, casual relaxed atmosphere and you can pretty much have your burger ANYWAY you want it

C. W.

Really nice burgers made to order with some funky options to stack it up. Great casual dinning with at twist.

L. M. R.

Felt like i was taking a test when ordering, dont think we all got the options we selected, but found it cheaper than TGI Friday's and the food was Good. I Liked it

M. J.

Good food, although stingy with toppings (cheese especially). Okay service, friendly but very inattentive.

T. K.

Nice burger. Friendly staff. Not very baby friendly place, allways overcrowded.

(Translated) Reasonable average prices, good quantity with the option to create your own burger and decent portions. Excellent service; fast and friendly. Recommended to go with friends or family, the starters are delicious and they are good portions. Good and average prices, perfect location and excellent service. Loved the "Creater your own burguer" option. I'd recommend that any time you hang out with friends or family to eat something good.

(Translated) Place that I did not know, it's a chain, but the food is really good. I loved the chance to "build" my bug by choosing just about every ingredient! (Original) Posto che non conoscevo, è una catena, ma il cibo è davvero buono. Ho adorato la possibilità di "costruirmi" il mio buger scegliendo praticamente ogni ingrediente!
