The best brasseries in Ireland, according to the experts: the Michelin Guide has weighed in, and their honors are what rank this list. Caladh comes out on top, and the good stuff runs deepest in Dublin and Greystones.

Rank 1. Caladh
Brasserie
A double-fronted Georgian building painted pale green in a Wicklow seaside town, Caladh is a brasserie where the kitchen leans on good produce and leaves it mostly alone. Confit duck leg and grilled pork chop are the register: classic, ingredient-led, no flourishes demanding your attention. The room is calm and unhurried, the wine list is sensibly priced, and the whole thing feels like a neighbourhood restaurant a neighbourhood genuinely wanted.

Rank 1. Pichet
Brasserie
The neon red signs and striped canopies on Trinity Street are hard to walk past without stopping, which is probably the point. Inside this French brasserie, checkerboard floors and the low roar of two busy rooms set the tone. The cooking leans classic and full-flavoured, French in spirit but built on Irish produce. The wine list runs well past France's borders, and ordering by the pichet feels less like a gimmick than the obvious move.
