Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Was here a while ago while it was quite busy. Was seated at a table, then moved to another and then to a stool, where I was supposed to be able to have a meal. Left without eating as it just wouldn’t work. Appreciate staff are doing best to keep distances but would rather have been told that they were full and to come back in 30 mins than to be made feel like such an inconvenience, or that I mattered less because I wasn’t paying as much money as bigger groups. Hard to “support local” when local don’t want you.

Great spot for Cavery. Lovely big portions and half portions also available. Staff were attentive. But desserts were over priced. Kids option on the dessert would be ideal.

We only stepped in for a drink and stayed for two. The service was pleasant, efficient and covid compliant. The bar was clean and the loo spotless. Not much atmosphere but yo ve fair it was early. No problem recommending.

We went in last Saturday evening, tables spaced out and Covid measures were handled brilliantly. Food was lovely, portion sizes were excellent. Excellent service. Will return the next time we are in Donabate.

Friendly service and great food. You have a choice of 3 bars/ lounges that cater for all ages . You can choose from traditional bar to a lounge with music and a quieter smaller lounge

I am a local and go quite regularly. It's a great local. I had their Donabate Dexter beef burger on Friday. I must say it was a great tasty burger and great to know it's local beef

Myself, sister and 2 year old nephew visited keelings today. After ordering we waited 40 minutes for our food. We followed up and was told they forgot to put our order through. So had to wait again. When it came to paying I couldn't believe they didn't take anything off the bill as a gesture of good will. When I mentioned it the lady ( who forgot to put our order through ) she disappeared to speak to someone more senior I guess. When she returned she said a reduction couldn't be done on the till and had no option but to charge me full whack. You mean to say you cant void a sausage n chips for a 2 year old off the bill??? Come on! Poor management decision and will not be returning.
