Town Yard Modern Bistro in Malahide

A lovely place to eat in lovely Malahide! Wonderful restaurant in beautiful Malahide! We went there twice in our one week stay in Dublin. 30 minutes by train from Dublin.

Our party of 4 adults and 2 children called into this restaurant at 2 pm on a Saturday looking for a table, half expecting to be turned away as we could see all the tables were full ! However, the waiter with a smile said, "Let me see what I can do for you. While working on her Chrome book, looking how she could juggle her bookings around, said I can accommodate you, providing you will vacate your table by 3.30pm. A table had just become available, and we were settled comfortably into our seats. Looking around this restaurant, I was very taken by the decor and standard of finish. Our table was prepared very well and within a few minutes our orders were taken. Our drinks arrived quickly to my pleasure as sometimes you have to wait a long time when the restaurant you happen to be dining in is very busy. Anyway I could see that the restaurant was very well organised. Plenty of staff working harmlessly together delivering great service ! Our food orders were served together for our party of 6. We asked for vinegar and more ketchup, which arrived immediately. Our food was excellent, fish and chips, chicken burger with chips, steak and chips and burger and chips along with pancakes for one of the young boys. The food was hot and tasty and certainly was just what we wanted for a laid-back family lunch on a Saturday. We had coffees after our lunch. Our bill for the 6 was around €170.00 We left a tip which was well deserved by the attentive staff. We will be back .....

We had an exceptional dining experience at The Town Yard. We visited as a group of 10 to celebrate a special occasion, and everything was truly outstanding from start to finish. The service was impeccable — attentive, professional, and remarkably efficient despite the size of our group. The food was exquisite, with every dish beautifully prepared and full of flavour. We also had the pleasure of meeting the chef personally and congratulating him on an outstanding culinary experience. The Town Yard is a wonderful destination for a special occasion, combining excellent food, exceptional service, and a warm atmosphere. We would highly recommend it and look forward to returning.

"I came to Malahide for a weekend getaway, walked past this place and decided to walk in. The appetisers and desserts absolutely blew me away, and the brownie was the best I've ever had."

An exceptional dining experience from start to finish. The food and service were both exceptional – attentive, friendly and professional throughout. We had the three course set menu for €55, which was excellent value considering the quality of the food. The organic chicken was the standout dish – beautifully cooked and full of flavour. The desserts were beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. The setting is another highlight, with beautiful views overlooking the boats in Malahide Marina, creating a lovely atmosphere. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and will definitely be back. Highly recommended!

Great lunch there - really good!

Excellent food for reasonable cost. Service Excellent. Very enjoyable experience.

Lovely place in Malahide! Tasty fish and delicious mocktails too.

Enjoyed dinner but there were a few issues. Lettuce was not prepared correctly and as a result I ended up with a mouthful of gritty food. I put it aside and notified the manager. She, in her defense, comped the meal (it was not expected) and she notified the kitchen. The seafood special was ok, as was the chicken Supreme. An OK meal, but what made it more disappointing was that the temperature in the restaurant was 28 degrees. AC couldn’t keep up. Unlikely to be back.
