The Arch Bar in Swords

Great value for money or their "special" evening deals

The staff are brilliant they just want to make sure they you feel so welcome. Thank you.

Nice bar, great food, great staff.

Packed. Perfect if you want to chat with friends, have some grub, watch the soccer. Plenty of screens. Not particularly clean, bathrooms were better than average but the tables aren't cleaned properly and the service isn't great, although some of the floor staff were lovely. They said they wouldn't take a booking and it was walk-in only. When 2 of 4 of us arrived they still said they couldn't keep a table for us, we just had to watch for one to become available. A woman and her 3 little boys left so the 4 of us sat down at their vacated table. It took a while to get the floor staff's attention to clear the table. When she finally did, she didn't bother to come back to clean the table or give us menus. The table was manky with bits of saucy meat all over it and the seats that mashed into my dress. One girl forgot a plate of fries we ordered, we could tell she didn't register the fries at the end of the order so we asked did she get it, she said she did but the fries never arrived until we asked another girl for them. Food was lovely and red wine delicious, surprisingly cheaper than we expected. The 2-piece band Miami Trice began at 10pm Saturday night. Singer was exceptional, guitarist probably was too but it was hard to tell over the heavy backing track. Music was too loud for us to chat so we left but there were some older women up dancing and loving the music. Place was still packed, the band were banging out Tina Turner & Manic Monday.

Lovely food and a nice pint of Guinness, the staff are really nice 👍 they had a steak offer on the menu , 16oz Tbone or 8oz fillet for €20. Football on the tvs also, so no complaints 😉 2nd visit and once more no complaints, the staff were very nice and the food was lovely. Always a good atmosphere. 3rd visit. Another lovely family meal yesterday, again the food was lovely and the staff were very nice and helpful. There was a nice ballad session starting at 8 pm, which was great to hear. Thanks

Nice pub but expensive, €6.70 for 25ml of Captain Morgans Spiced Rum is way over the top. On top of that I asked for a ginger beer which the barman knew I wanted as a mixer but he didn't tell me it was the large alcoholic version at €8.50. This is Swords, not Dublin!

Visiting from the UK, I've been here several times for lunch and it is always good. Friendly staff, good prices and a nice atmosphere.

If you looking for a Big Irish Pub no need to look any further then The Arch this pub is Massive. If they dont have it then you dont need it. Cheers!

Absolutely fantastic live music Friday night!!

Food is amazing! Great atmosphere and the staff are very friendly.
