Town Yard Modern Bistro in Malahide

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.

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 .....

A great, atmospheric place with good food and friendly service. It's worth a visit 😋🙂

We were a group of 8 and had a lovely evening. The food was amazing, flavorful, beautifully plated and there were options for everyone. The dessert were top notch. We were well looked after by the staff. The atmosphere was relaxed and yet elevated enough to feel it was a special dinner out. Highly recommend.

Cozy little place by the bay. Amazing chicken pancetta special, never cleaned my plate so fast. Ruby was lovely. Exact kind of girl you need in a place like that. Whisky Sours being 15 euro kind of felt like getting kicked in the nuts but I can accept it as I am on vacation in a touristy spot.

I had a wonderful lunch here and would highly recommend it! The food was delicious, with a great variety of options, and the service was incredibly quick. A special shoutout to our waiter, Bruno who was super nice—though all the staff we encountered were lovely. The dining room is on the cozier side, so I’d definitely recommend booking in advance. The atmosphere wasn't noisy at all, and we could easily chat without raising our voices. Bonus points for the bathrooms—they are styled beautifully!

Excellent restaurant. VG quality and value for money.

Service and atmosphere were great - no issues there! I had the beef cheek special. It was tasty, don't get me wrong - but it lacked seasoning. The beef, the sauce, the mash potato; all lacked salt. I'm not saying they should have been salty, but they should have been 'seasoned'. It was just a little flat on the seasoning side. Apart from that, great place - enjoyed it!

Super cool smaller place. Handed a party of 13 with no issues. Had a set menu with a set price, but was still several options. Parmesean crusted cod was AMAZING
