Dublin Yums - Restaurant of the Month

Hi everyone, 

It’s your Dublin Yums team here. We are back again with another post for all you foodies today. Today we are going to share with you our Restaurant of the Month. 

The restaurant of the month is (drum roll please...)

The Station at Molloys. 

The Station at Molloys has been a Dublin Yums favourite for a long time and we are going to tell you why. 

Location:

Although The Station is a bit of a journey from the city centre, it is most definitely a journey that you won’t regret making. The journey from the city centre is simple with the number 27 bus from college green taking you almost at the Stations doorstep. 

The Inside

One of my favourite things about The Station is their interior. Their interior gives off an old steam train vibe that is aesthetic and pleasing to the eye. 

The Menu

The menu at The Station never disappoints and they are known for their amazing burgers and tasty chicken wings.

The menu has huge variety with the restaurant offering steaks, pasta dishes, burgers and salads. There is definitely something for everyone on their menu!

The Station is very busy during lunch hours and dinner hours as the variety of the menu is known to the locals. The restaurant is very popular with students from the TU Dublin Tallaght campus as they are just a five minute walk away from the restaurant. The lunch menu is student friendly, with students being able to purchase a huge feed for just under the price of €10. With prices like this it is hard to go anywhere else!

The Deals and Events

The Station offers plenty of bargains and events which is always great for the customer. The deals are as follows:

Monday & Tuesday: Cocktails are 2 for €12.

Wednesday: Live Music and Wings Wednesday. Wings Wednesday is extremely popular with customers, as they can purchase 1KG of chicken wings for €10.

Thursday: Quiz night and DJ.

Friday & Saturday: Live Music, DJ’s and Late Bar.

Sunday: Bingo Night

As you can see there is never a boring night in The Station and there is always something fun and entertaining to do. 

Desserts

The Station at Molloys also has some delicious desserts on offer. Our favourite being the ‘DIY Cheesecake’. This is a baked vanilla cheesecake that you get to design and put all of your favourite topping on to.

Our Favourite Dishes

Now we are going to share with you our top three favourite dishes from the station. 

(It was so hard to choose but these are the three we could decide on!)

1. Our top favourite dish from The Station has to be their infamous chicken wings. The crunchy coating on the outside and spicy sauce is a combination you can’t miss!

2. Our second favourite dish would have to be the carbonara. The creamy pasta with smoky bacon and parmesan cheese. This indulgent dish had to make it to our top three!

3. Our third favourite dish has to be the pork ribs. The ribs are drenched in barbecue sauce and the meat falls off the bone. It is served with crunchy onion rings and is a sinful but delicious dish.

Now that we have your mouth watering. Why don’t you go and try The Station at Molloys and comment on this post and tell us what you think?

Happy Yumming, 

The Dublin Yums Team :)
