Welcome to our Home, Gallagher’s Boxty House.

A family owned restaurant that celebrates Traditional Irish Cuisine and Culture with a Modern twist.

We were proudly making Boxty for the last 36 years in the heart of Dublin's Cultural quarters, Temple Bar.

The Boxty recipes date back to 17th-18th century Ireland. Award winning chef Padraic Óg Gallagher reimagined the dishes and confidently recreated these classics in a 21st century setting without forgetting our humble past.

    Ooggie as very helpful, friendly, and personable, and knowledgeable of the menu. The food was yummy and a taste of home (our mammy makes boxty). We had Gaelic Boxty, Corned Beef Boxty, shared Boxty fries and, for dessert, the almond butter boxty cake. So many different ways to eat boxty and all absolutely delicious. A real treat. I would recommend it.
