Eating out in Ranelagh
Ranelagh is the village strip south of the Grand Canal that Dubliners mean when they say they are going out "locally" without going into town. Almost everything worth booking sits along Ranelagh Village, the one-kilometre run from the canal bridge to the triangle at the Luas stop, with a second cluster on Dunville Avenue. The rooms are small, the kitchens are ambitious and the wine lists are longer than the dining rooms, which is why a Friday 8 pm table here is one of the hardest in the city to find on the night.
Getting here is easy: the Luas Green line stops at Ranelagh, two stops from St Stephen's Green, and the 11, 14 and 15 buses run along the main road. Parking is residents' permits almost everywhere, so most people arrive on foot or by tram.
The pattern on LastTable is consistent. Flash Tables tend to appear on Monday to Wednesday evenings and for the early 6 pm sitting on Thursdays, when restaurants want the first turn filled before the walk-ins arrive. Sunday brunch fills from 11 am; the 1 pm tables are the ones to watch. If a 7:30 pm table shows free here, it is real, and it will not stay free long.
