Brewery
Dead Centre is not a faceless corporation…milking the beer industry for all it’s worth. Instead, we’re a tight knit crew that relies on friends, family, colleagues and other breweries to create a product that we can truly be proud of.

Fresh, flavoursome and (wherever possibly) local ingredients are what give our beer it’s character. Cutting corners here is not an option at Dead Centre Brewing. We believe you get out what you put in…so only the best goes in.

    Had booked a high top but none available when we arrived. Seemed like booking wasnt logged and we were just lucky there was a table available. Food was lovely, music was great and service was good, bar we felt rushed to pay our bill and go after finishing our food. The person next to us remarked the same. Overall lovely atmosphere though.

    A little more work on the ambience, the mucus was good but low level. The rugby was on the TV which was actually great but some minor technical issues. and some of the serving staff a little more polished in their skills. They were perfectly polite and attentive, just more experience/maturity int he skills of the trade. If you could offer (sorry if it already is) samples of your beers to help people choose

    Had bottle of non alcoholic beer, asked for second, was told there was none, on leaving saw bottles in fridge near the front door, server never bothered to look in any of the other fridges. Had garlic mayo chips , way too much thick mayo did not eat them. Server was too attentive, practically took the plates while we were still eating, asked every 2 minutes if we were ok and if we wanted anything, could not relax

    Great sourdough pizzas, deal of the day was a pint draft beer and a pizza for €17. Strangely, the App does not give you the beer prices, we had to ask our server. Slightly miffed that although we booked a normal table in the downstairs area, this had been ignored 🙁 and we either had to sit on high stools, or go upstairs to a fairly sterile seating area with no atmosphere, up we went. Beer is cracking and, as it turns out, reasonably priced €5-6.5, but why not publish prices??? Service was friendly and efficient.

    I have ate at Dead centre many times the food is lovely. However I would not recommend bottomless brunch there. The service was extremely slow. We had to literally go up to the bar to ask for a refill at one stage . I quietly said we were waiting a while and I was told we had just received refills and proceeded to check the time of our last refill from the bar. Overall not a good experience. Was very disappointed.
