More Than Just Tapas

At Urban Brewing, tapas are just the beginning. Our restaurant also offers a full Evening Menu, with large plates designed for sharing — perfect if you’d like to mix small plates with something more substantial at the table.

Beyond the dining, we’re also a brewery on-site, and you can join one of our Brewery Tours to learn about the brewing process, taste our craft beers, and explore the vaulted spaces where tradition meets creativity. It’s a unique experience that combines food, drink, and culture in the heart of Dublin Docklands.

With three lively bars, extensive wine and cocktail lists, and flexible spaces, Urban Brewing is more than a tapas restaurant — it’s a place to enjoy the full range of dining, drinking, and brewing experiences Dublin has to offer.

We welcome groups of all sizes — from tables for 2 to parties of 200+ guests. Whether it’s a team lunch, corporate event, or a festive celebration, our tapas menus can be tailored for your group.

More Than Tapas — Our Table d’Hôte Menu

Looking for something beyond tapas? At Urban Brewing, you can also enjoy our Table d’Hôte menu, a set dining experience that includes a starter, main course, and dessert.

It’s an ideal option for couples seeking a full dining experience, or for groups who prefer to enjoy a shared 3-course set menu together rather than mixing different options.
