Captain Americas

Ahoy there!

44 Grafton Street
Dublin, Leinster
Ireland
+353 1 671 5266
http://www.captainamericas.com/

Similar to Planet Hollywood but much more low-key, Captain Americas is a rock-themed American diner that is great fun and child-friendly. The food is predictable but satisfying, with burgers, pasta and sandwiches all starting from about EUR9. It's an easy place to go for a quick bite when in town, and is decorated with a variety of interesting rock and roll memorabilia. Incidentally, Irish crooner Chris de Burgh used to bask here before he made it big! Sunday is Kids Day, with roving clowns and coloring competitions.

Eddie Rocket's

American food-fest 7 South Anne St
Dublin
Ireland
+353 1 679 7340 Eddie Rocket's sports several diners around the city centre. You will know exactly what you are getting as soon as you see the exterior, because the premises resembles an accurate recreation of the classic 50s-style American diner. There are no surprises with the decor inside either, featuring red vinyl booths and a chrome diner counter, although the mini-jukeboxes beside each table are a nice addition - and they work too. Foodwise, burgers, fries, and shakes are all on offer here; it's messy, tasty food, and the portions are generous.

Elephant and Castle

A Dublin Love Affair 18 Temple Bar
Dublin
Ireland
+1 353 1 679 3121 Located in Temple Bar, this is one of Dublin's most popular, casual restaurants. The Elephant & Castle serves a variety of American-style menu choices, including burgers, salads, omelettes and their famous chicken wings. They also serve an American-style brunch on Sundays that is very popular. There is almost always a wait for the tables here, but since the restaurant is located in Temple Bar, there's always plenty to look at just outside the door if you need to kill time. Note: no reservations are accepted.

Thunder Road Café

American kitsch Fleet Street
Temple Bar
Dublin, Leinster
Ireland
+353 1 679 4057
http://www.thunderroadcafe.com/ The Thunder Road Café is one of the few American-themed restaurants in Dublin and even boasts a Harley Davidson parked in its entrance foyer. Very popular with office parties, it's not uncommon to see both the customers and staff up dancing on the long tables by the window. The Tex-Mex food is perhaps a little overpriced but the emphasis here is on fun rather than sophistication.
