ELY is a multi-award-winning, buzzy wine bar with great food, craft beer and classic cocktails.
Opened in 1999 ELY has been recognised as Ireland’s leading wine bar from the start, continuously awarded best wine bar with Wine Spectator recognising it for Best of Award of Excellence.

In 2022 at ELY WINE BAR we are going back to our roots. That means proper WINE BAR, the place to enjoy an exceptional glass or bottle of wine without committing to a three-course meal.
In true WINE BAR fashion, we’ve created a menu with WINE FIRST in mind, best described as sharing style,
driven by seasonality and simplicity, letting the flavours of the wine and food marry together

At the heart of this RETURN TO OUR ROOTS is our continued commitment to work with artisan, organic and biodynamic wineries. To support Irish and European artisan producers, to champion sustainable practices and nourish our team who help create and enhance all the elements and moments that make an ELY WINE BAR experience.

    Sommelier was lovely, staff were so friendly and it was a nice experience. They were so accommodating for my parents birthday. However I would not recommend the secret tasting. You get bread and olives, very standard as a starter, and two small plates to share. Not worth it for that price. You would expect a starter and main course EACH paying €135+. Definitely not value for money. May be worth going for the actual early bird or main menu though. Overall won’t go back or recommend that experience.

    The ambience was great! We went there for a birthday celebration. The wine was excellent and the starters all good, however we didn’t like the mains, in particular the wild rice was not good, extremely oily and those of us that had it felt sick later that evening. The burgers seemed fine.
