Crosbie's

You'll find yourself in the heart of Grand Canal Dock's glossy development, where the tech crowd mingles with tourists wandering over from the Aviva. The location does most of the heavy lifting here — floor-to-ceiling windows give you proper views of the water, and there's something undeniably pleasant about watching the world go by from inside. The food plays it safe with crowd-pleasing classics that won't offend anyone but probably won't have you ringing your mates about it either. Service tends to be sound, and it's handy enough if you're already in the area for work or a match. Just don't expect to discover your new favourite spot — this is more about convenience and location than culinary fireworks.
