The best restaurants

22/07/2025: Nice coffee, great staff, I’d like to taste an espresso tonic there one day🙃

22/06/2025: Very nice coffee served by very nice staff, would recommend.

29/07/2025: This was one of the nicest places we visited lately, a little, tranquil paradise, managed and run by absolutely lovely people. One normally goes there to buy a tree. We talked to and were helped by Anthony, who was very knowledgeable and gave us great advice. We stopped at the Café there for a coffee and a bite to eat and were greeted by Rambo, the duck, who, all by himself, decided to leave the lake and become a bouncer. All day, he spends at the entrance to the coffee shop and inspects every person walking through the door. We are back at home now with a strawberry tree. It is just about to be planted. I can wholeheartedly recommend this centre; a lovely outing with lovely people, beautiful plants, a coffee shop, and a bouncer duck. And we will back for more.

18/06/2025: Hidden oasis for nice coffee with a great selection of shrubs and trees with 2 very friendly birds

07/01/2025: Delicious food. This is a vegetarian's dream. The people are very nice and the place is cozy. There isn't much parking available next to the cafe, but plenty within a few minutes walk.

15/12/2024: Stopped for breakfast with a friend here on a whim and Seed & Soul did not disappoint! What a lovely find. The food was great, the staff lovely and the atmosphere really relaxed. We will be back!

25/05/2025: It's true to say Leopardstown Racecourse is my local track as I was born just 6km away. In my humble opinion it's the number one Racecourse in Ireland because it caters for both top class Flat and National Hunt racing. The success of the four day annual Christmas Festivals, the two day Dublin Racing Festival held in February ( best pre Cheltenham trials ) and the Saturday Champions Day in September speaks for itself. It holds the best trials for both Guineas races and the Derby and it's a pity the Curragh has a monopoly on the five Classics as Leopardstown deserves at least just one, maybe the St Leger. The facilities are superb and the impressive lay out means you can experience the unique atmosphere and excitement of a day at the races up close and personal. Down through the years I have had the privilege to witness so many Racing legends both human and equine and will just mention a few, Lester Piggott, Pat Eddery, Frankie Dettori, Ryan Moore, Vincent O'Brien and Aidan O'Brien, Sadler's Wells, Golden Fleece, Daylami, Dawn Run, Istabraq, Danoli and Hurricane Fly. The only thing I miss is the straight Sprint course as Sprint races run around two bends are not the same

24/05/2025: Absolutely top class throughout. Really customer friendly. Loads of places to sit. Plenty of shelter on a bad day. Management have done a fabulous job in its ongoing design. Clearly a lot of I intelligent and creative thought has been put into it and it’s getting the crowds this deserves. One negative is the entrance charge but that’s a problem across Irish racing. I would highly recommend it for a day or evening out.

04/10/2025: What ever you want you can get and all the people are great will go out of there way to HELP EVERYTING THAT LIMERICK STANDS FOR.

30/09/2025: Such a lovely vibe going on, beautiful selection of foods like chocolate, meat's,bread's and coffee. Highly recommend a visit on a Saturday morning.

20/09/2025: This little seaside café completely stole my heart. The coffee was good – rich, smooth, and made with so much love. The food was just as amazing, fresh and full of flavor. The cosy atmosphere made it feel like a warm hug by the sea. And the best part? My dog was welcome too! We both felt so at home. Can’t wait to come back!

18/09/2025: We stopped by for breakfast during our trip to Dublin, and the location is fantastic. The variety was as good as it should be, and all four dishes we chose were excellent. Ali, who took care of us, elevated the business with his service and friendly smile. Thank you for everything, and see you again soon.

29/10/2025: Very nice place. We were on the way back from Dublin Airport and couldn’t find any decent spots around, so we decided to drive into Swords. This place is a gem. The food was so fresh, service was really fast, and the staff were super nice. Prices were very fair too. You just don’t find places like this in Dublin these days. We’ll be back for sure.

22/10/2025: I love the food here, every time i eat here like it is one of the best meals… The servers Haloumi and Daniela are very friendly and professional. Take away service is great. I want to say that delivery man is very polite and friendly too

12/10/2025: Have been in a few times. Absolutely beautiful food and service. Best Chicken Biriyani by far. Plenty of Vegan offerings too. Keep up the great work and see ye all soon

22/08/2025: My wife and I were celebrating our wedding anniversary in Waterford and on a whim went into Bell Pepper as we never eat this type of food. The setting was very modern clean and tidy with a really nice atmosphere. There was a great selection on the menu and our starters and main course came very efficiently and were really delicious. Our waiter Shalu was very nice and friendly and gave us great service and attention. To get such a great meal for two including wine and beer for under €50 was an added bonus. Definitely would strongly recommend and will definitely go back if I’m ever in Waterford again.

15/10/2025: Awesome experience. The setup is so welcoming. The food served was unbelievably good. Neat and clean toilets. Definitely a must visit. Well done.

01/10/2025: A very popular place, too crowded inside, loud, and hectic. Quiet outside, but I wouldn't have wanted to eat inside; it was too crowded for my liking. The food wasn't outstanding but adequate, more like a fast-food restaurant. The service was hectic and restless, I just wanted to get my fill and leave.

13/07/2025: We knew we hit the jackpot when we saw the queue out the door. The pastries are beautiful, especially the Raspberry Danish. The staff were lovely and the coffee was delicious. We grabbed a sourdough special on the way out the door.

03/07/2025: I recommend going here for breakfast or lunch, or just for sourdough bread or sweet baked. There's not that many seating, but there is some, it's also perfect for takeaway. I loved the sourdough and kimchi sandwich. Freshly baked and great taste. And the banana bread was very good! Nice staff and good service. You just have to try it🙌 I'm coming back!

27/10/2025: Really nice food Would recommend 👌

26/10/2025: We had a lovely time here last evening! The menu was varied, the food very tasty & our server was very pleasant & knowledgeable. Dee & I highly recommend this place! Thank you 🙏😊

16/10/2025: We stopped by for a morning coffee, and seeing how delicious the scones looked, we decided to try them, and they didn't disappoint. Very good, great coffee, very good service, and reasonable prices. Highly recommended.

12/10/2025: Friendly staff and Nice Sandwiches

18/10/2025: Enjoyed the vibe here while having a few pints. Cozy but there are several separate areas to sit.

15/08/2025: We came to listen to Irish music and left after 30 minutes because of the noise of the conversations. It was a shame because the band was good. But some women were shouting to be heard and it spoiled the musical atmosphere.

25/09/2025: We got a takeout pizza at Vice Pizza & Wings Shop while staying at a hotel nearby. We had high hopes the pizza would be good, since we watched the owner-chef make the pizza with fresh ingredients right in the shop. Unfortunately, the pizza wasn't at all good — very little seasoning like garlic, oregano, and a soggy crust. This is a shame, when the pizza was obviously not pre-fab.

20/09/2025: Fantastic pizza, great service. massively recommend!!

12/09/2025: We stumbled across BigFan by accident and what a good accident it was. The restaurant was dimly lit creating a lovely atmosphere and the music was at the perfect volume level. Excellent music selection as well. The menu is a great read with lots of options that cater for all diets. We ordered the prawn toast, the best I’ve ever had, the duck wings, incredible, bao bun with beef and Chinese five spice, truly delicious, the lucky Crackers are a treat with the whipped tofu and yuzu dressing, simple yet delicious. The dumpling soup was rich and earthy and full of flavour. The service was excellent, fast and efficient, the food delivery was quick and brought to you when each item is ready. Make BigFan a must if you visit Dublin. We highly recommend it. I would have taken photos but I was more interested in eating the food than taking pics of it.

11/09/2025: Nice restaurant with friendly staff and good food. Advance reservations are recommended.
