Wetherspoon in Swords

JD Wetherspoon at the Old Borough Hotel in Swords, Co. Dublin - an endlessly large pub with lots of nooks and crannies and two standout features. I'll now describe it for everyone who doesn't know the Wetherspoon system yet: First install the app, then find out where you are (it's a chain with umpteen locations, especially in Great Britain), and finally save the table number. Then it can go. Simply order, pay immediately with PayPal (or Apple or Google Pay), and after a short time the ordered items will be delivered. Even better: real ale is served straight from the pump, which is absolutely rare in Ireland. Oh yes: the pint was €2.05, no joke. You can be happy with the money if you get a can of beer in the supermarket. So: Real Ale, an absolute plus! Ordering via the app is kind of fun. Good idea! The food is mixed. I've been there several times, so I was able to collect impressions. Steak is really bad, tough, fibrous, lots of stuff that comes back to you all day afterwards. Burgers are a disgrace: barely bigger than a cheeseburger from McDonalds with a pile of fries that fits in a child's palm. It didn't taste particularly great either - but it was extremely expensive. If you want to eat well and reasonably cheaply, you'll be well served with a large portion of chicken wings ("Sharer"), and the pizza slices are also ok. But it must be clear that it will not be a cheap pleasure. It's usually small amounts when you order something, but by the time you're really full, you've emptied your cash register a lot. A few things went wrong during my visit today. My top star, "Greene King Abbot Ale" was out. The waitress couldn't tell me what else would be recommended. Then I ordered "Worthington" at random, when it arrived I realized it was bottled beer. Another order simply went missing (even though it was already paid for online!). The next waitress couldn't tell me what ales were currently available from the pump. I had to negotiate with the bartender myself to be able to order a "Brahon Blonde Ale", but was then served an "Irish Red Ale". At least it was straight from the pump and didn't taste bad at all. Without these circumstances, my star rating would have been significantly better. I'm incorrigible, so I'll go there again at the next opportunity, just for the ale. I then generously endure the rest of the entire package.

Amazing price,good and nice service. I'll be back definitely when near by...

Great value, only 4.95 for a full Irish, You can't go wrong ☕🍽️🍴

Romashka..with you there I remember the precious moments ^^

An ok pub. You come here for the good reasonably priced menu and drinks. However most probably due to staff shortages tables take some time to be cleaned during peak hours. Not all dishes are good, ordered the BBQ mesh chicken and the chicken was rubbery. While the fish and chips was much better.

Hello I would like to tell you about my experiences in this place, this is an opinion after multiple visits. I am delighted with the place and the service, the place is very cozy, I don't even want to leave, the prices are very attractive and the food is very good, I mainly eat burgers here, but the friends I go with also praise other dishes. Parking in front of the premises costs 1e per hour, fair. The photos show the Double American cheese burger and the Tennessee burger.

Cheap beer guys, fosters is delish on draught , and at 2.90 a pint, no atmosphere, no music, very open and feels unsocial, but can't say enough how good the Fosters is yum!

Beautiful room, very unexpected for the price. Booked for a 1 night stay and would highly recommend

Food is not phenomenal but for the price it is a steal. The staff was not very invested or interested in the service (it was early maybe, because of that ? Playing Devil's advocate) Ordered a large vegetarian breakfast and had to claim back a missing hash brown, and while the waitress was looking at the item i was able to find it on two different menus, proving my point. A bit annoying to argue for an item I have paid for I think it would be a great place if this improves for the future!

They had old prices on the menu so I overpaid, but still cheap and quality food and drinks
