    Hadn’t been for a long time to E&C so noticed a few changes. Wings much hotter with less vinaigrette not so nice but still crispy and generous portion. Sandwich not great-E&C Reuben stodgy and a bit tasteless. French toast was nice and fluffy. Service on a Sunday very busy best avoided next time.

    Hadnt eaten here in over 20 years, its very dated, lools so tired, mediocre bland food, very slow service, cold coffee, was relatively cheap for Dublin though. So surprised at how dated the place is, needs a major revamp. It was a very cool place around 25 years ago, not so now.
