We offer both the casual Gastrobar experience to the more formal dining, serving old school dishes with a contemporary slant. There’s something here to suit every taste and personality.

Cosy Drinks at the Schoolhouse

As the nights draw in and the air turns crisp, step into the warmth of the Schoolhouse Gastrobar and let the season embrace you. Our crackling fireplace, soft candlelight and inviting atmosphere make it the perfect place to unwind and indulge.

Sip on our signature seasonal cocktails: rich, spiced, and full of festive charm; or wrap your hands around a comforting hot drink made to warm the soul. Whether you’re sharing stories with friends or stealing a quiet moment by the fire, there’s no better way to spend a cosy evening.

Match and Concert Days at Schoolhouse

Feel the match-day buzz in the perfect setting!

Located just a short stroll from the Aviva Stadium and RDS, Schoolhouse is known as the ideal spot to soak up the pre- and post-match atmosphere. Enjoy our special Match Day Menu, designed for smooth service so you can focus on the game, the crowd, and the craic.

Catch all the action live on our big screen and multiple TVs throughout the Gastrobar, making sure you don’t miss a second. And it’s not just for rugby and football; our Match Day Menu also applies to select concert days, so you can fuel up before the show!

*The Match Day Menu might not apply all day, depending on the event. We’ll keep you informed ahead of time, or feel free to contact us directly if you have any questions.

Fresh, Local, and Full of Flavour

Our Head Chef, Francois Grelet, is deeply passionate about creating dishes that celebrate the best of fresh, local produce. Every plate reflects his commitment to quality and his belief that great food starts with great ingredients.

We proudly partner with organic farms and local suppliers, sourcing everything from micro-herbs to indigenous Irish ingredients that showcase the rich flavors of our region. Whether you're craving comforting Gastrobar favourites or more classic, refined dishes, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.

Authentic. Seasonal. Delicious.
That’s what you’ll find in every bite at Schoolhouse Gastrobar.

"The service is excellent as is the staff who went out of their way to make us feel welcome. 100% recommended for new clients and we will definitely be back for brunch and a glass of wine."

"We had a lovely dinner tonight. The drinks and food were delicious, from the specialty cocktails to the fish and chips and butcher block special. We loved the house-made brown bread, too! Everyone was warm and welcoming, especially our server, Iliana, and Erick, Germano, and Lucas. The bartenders and front desk staff were helpful and gracious. Thank you!!"

“We ate at the Gastrobar and the atmosphere was great. Our server was amazing and so helpful in making our dinner choices. I had the mushroom pasta, it was delicious. Others had the chicken, so good too! The wine selection was great too. Overall very cosy and delightful.”
