Kilkenny Design

Some really nice clothes overall, quiet but need to think about security tags that make holes in things. Also please don't lecture a tourist on being "sustainable" when I asked if the bags were plastic. I just wanted something lightweight for my hand luggage. I understand the damage to the planet. 🤣

Always friendly and helpful staff. I am hoping the girl serving coffees ice cream and cakes was just having a bad day! Everyone else was amazing. Food pretty good and always decent sales! Spotless toilets, which is impressive since they are always so busy.

Very nice cozy Irish department store! You would love this place and make sure to find one of the stores and take a look before leaving Ireland! Amazing blankets, hats, and all sorts of clothing, home decors and so on that you wanna buy it all!!

This is a review for their cafe. The home decor good shop is not bad, plenty of unique items especially to the tourist eye. But we stopped by for a cup of tea and scones. And I still can’t decide if this was Irish or English (or for the matter if the jam goes first on the scone or the cream) but we had some hearty scones, pastry and tea for a delightful afternoon snack. So long Dublin.

Stumbled upon this place while visiting Dublin and went in, the smell made me hungry and it was near lunch time, so decided to eat there, best choice EVER! The staff was very lovely and even let me change the sauce from the roast beef from gravy to cranberry sauce which I really appreciated, the food was delicious and plentiful. And the staff was super lovely! I had the roast beef with all the sides and my mom and cousin both had the clam chowder- she said it was the best one she’d ever had. I had an OJ, my mom a Pinot Grigio and my cousin a Rockshore lager. Everything was super yummy! The restaurant itself has a lovely view and even though it was quite busy, it wasn’t loud. A lovely place to go eat if you’re visiting Dublin.

The best of Irish design all in one place! Lovely cafe/ restaurant upstairs and live music on Sunday afternoons (Asgards!)

I love the store and cafe but the cafe was short staffed yesterday maybe,it seems to happen from time to time ?.There was no mash potato and some customers were unhappy then the chef walked off for a few months minutes and said nothing.i went to pay the coffee kiosk queue very busy and nobody serving at the other till .Dinner gets cold however the Manageress came and also gave me potato later when I was sitting down. Thiswas appreciated,however now I'm told you can't use your gift vouchers in coffee shop.Disappointing tbh.I do appreciate the wonderful staff and fab food thou maybe a few tweaks needed as the stress of the staff can affect everyone.They work very hard .

The Café on the 1st floor of the Kilkenny Design Shop is a must for the best of the best of cafeteria style food in the city. The variety of food from homemade quiche, sandwiches, soups and beef/chicken, fish dinners- all fresh makes the Kilkenny Café an easy lunch choice. This is coupled with the best trained staff in the city. There is old school ‘pride in what we do’ here and a warm and personal welcome. The homemade soup and fresh savoury scone is a favourite! Whilst the Kilkenny design is one of the champions of Irish craftspeople, it embodies the spirit of what it means to be Irish in its every day culture. I love the place.
