Dublin Bus Reviews 

Bus is late and on top of that when it finally arrives I can't get on because there's no room for a buggy with toddler, because all spaces are filled up

The C2 bus that was supposed to arrive today at 10:40 at stop 7896 Gandon Park decided to do a short cut and changed his route leaving us stranded. I followed it on maps. The starting point is at Adamstown train station and the bus left very late for some reason and now we the customers have to get late to work/etc because you can’t manage yours services. That is very unacceptable for the price we pay. That means he left at least 3 stops on waiting like he doesn’t care and understands that we’re paying for this. My back now hurts from standing for too long waiting for your next bus as there is no where to sit!

Very rude drive and rash driving , took 39A from blanch and get down at Latchford court. Driver have no manner at all, and driving was so rash my 10 yrs old son almost fall. Bus no is 07D -70049.

What is the point in having an app with the bus times if the buses don’t show up? Surely it isn’t that hard to remove the bus from the app if it isn’t in service. Absolutely useless.

Hi had a fall running for the No 16 bus this morning in Terenure and I’d just like to thank the driver it was around 9 am and he came off the bus to make sure I was ok and was so kind he was a young driver and is a credit to Dublin bus. And also all the passengers on the bus showed such kindness as well. I’m ok nothing broken tg.

Just flew in fro Manchester where the bus and train were too the minute and if not they had notification. Bus from dublin airport already 14 mins late and not information.
Communication is everything guys, if your late then that happens, but keep people informed

When they're not late by 10 whole minutes despite what both the schedule and the TFI App claim, then the bus will literally take a left and end up in the Goddamn Backrooms in front of my very eyes, OR, funniest thing ever, will wait for 8 MINUTES AT THE RESTING SPOT before starting the trip. Worst means of transportation if you care about punctuality, I'd rather just pay 10 bucks extra for an Uber instead.

Left sitting on Snugborough rd for time absolutely waste of petrol and tax payers money just as well don’t depend on public transport on regular basis in this country n they want you to leave u car at home, no thanks

Absolutely horrendous I dread every time I have to get a bus because I know it will be a long painful wait where the bus simply shows up when it wants to or not at all. It doesn’t help that Irelands climate is cold, wet and windy but having your passengers wait outside for a bus that is half an hour late or doesn’t show up is complete ignorance. Don’t tell everyone that a bus will show up in 10 minutes if you know that bus doesn’t actually exist. Absolutely disgraceful. I’d rather lick a foot than get on another bus again. You wouldn’t get this in any other country. DO BETTER. Also stop sending single decker buses to school areas.

Absolutely ridiculous,I can’t remember the last time a bus showed up on time.Dublin bus is either half an hour too early or an hour late, you’re lucky if it even shows up at all.Seriously,I’ve missed so many important events or arrived late due the buses not showing up at all.Ireland has somehow managed to fall behind every other country in transport because of one specific county and this company.Do better.

Waiting 52 mintues for a 27 bus to clare hall after 3 buses different didnt show up and 3 was cancelled
Bus drivers gettijng s fortune for driving a bus and dont show up cause their lazy
Its a disgraceful
Dublin bus get your act together or find people who want to do the job

Today, 12th March. must have been the wettest day so far this year in south Dublin. leaving Blackrock on the S6
was made so pleasant by the lady bus driver. She was kind to me (I'm in my 70's), Kind to a young man and and patient and kind to the young school boys as they were leaving the bus. She was a ray of sunshine on such a frightful day! 98% of the time I find Dublin Bus staff very helpful and kind.
From a grateful Passenger, Christine.

Stood and waited for the number 7 bus for at least 30 minutes and it never came!! I had to take an expensive taxi because i was running late for an important meeting. Jesus christ get a grip

In the last few months, between ghost buses and last minute cancellations notices on the app, I have opted to avoid taking the bus as much as possible. Today was the worse experience. Took a N2 from Heuston Station towards Clontarf. It was lashing rain and cold. The driver stopped in the middle of nowhere, I guess for a driver change. As no driver turned up, we were told to get off and that another bus was on the way. The next 2 buses were cancelled.the 3 rd one delayed. We were left stranded for 1 hour under the rain at a bus stop with no shelter. We were freezing,water had gotten through our shoes and socks. So wet and cold, I felt like I was going to pass out. One hour later the bus turned up. It was 4 pm when the bus I hopped on in Heuston station left. I finally arrived in Grace park on Griffith avenue at 6.15 pm freezing and distressed. If you can walk or cycle, you will spare yourself a lot of stress and get to your destination on time. I now do this as much as possible,and will do so even more. If you are on the Luas line,you are lucky,the only service which is of a capital city standard .Avoid the N2 bus,it is a disgrace

I LOVE TRAVELING ON THE DUBLIN BUS. NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS THE DUBLIN BUS ALWAYS STOPS FOR ME. THANK YOU DUBLIN BUS MANAGEMENT FOR CARING FOR ME.

They can be very dangerous. I’ve seen loads of people going flying on the bus or falling because the bus pulls off too quick before anyone gets a chance to sit down or they brake too heavy coming up to a bus stop. The bus drivers lately a terrible.

This company is super bad! I remember once I threw some trash on the floor and the bus driver screamed at me! But I told him why does he not give out to the others since there is trash on the floor already!

The bus never turned up ,I was left waiting for 30 minutes for next bus in the rain terrible service.

The 27B from harristown to Eden Quay is a absolute disgrace. 17/02/2026 bus stop 1215 st lukes church 06.45 am . Minus 2 degrees outside. 27B due 06.50am no show / 07.00am no show / 07.15 no show . The 07.30 arrived absolutely packed . A brand new bus . Minus 2 outside i went upstairs without scanning my leap card. Why should I waiting 55 minutes on a 27B . Upstairs on the new bus was absolutely baltic on my phone it says Minus 3 . Colder on the new bus than outside. See them lads in harristown getting payed big money for sitting at a desk doing absolutely SFA but they leave there customers standing at there bus stop for nearly a hour in the freezing cold . The NTA TFI DUBLIN BUS especially them clowns 🤡 In harristown bus depot they must be sacked the people in coolock had enough
