The best restaurants

19/12/2024: Got a Haircut here yesterday, and it was a terrible decision. The guy finished the entire thing in 12 minutes, which doesn't sound like long, but it gave him just enough time to butcher my hair. No care or attention put into it. If you don't have time for a walk-in, that's fine but I'd rather not pay for a trim and come out looking like I got into a fight with a lawnmore.

19/11/2024: Disappointing. Tasty paninis removed - replaced by weird sandwiches. Coffee tasty and usual inflated price.

12/04/2025: Absolutely appalling! Rang for a delivery and waited 2.5 hours and got nothing. Made 3 called within the waiting time and they kept telling me the driver was on the way with the food. (The driver never turned up) After driving into the city from Salthill and €45 later, we went in and ended up collecting fresh food from the shop. The order was wrong! Never again...

22/03/2025: Nice food 😋 👌 Customer service 10/10 Vibe in store 10/10 We will be back for sure!

24/03/2025: Ordered a cake for my sons birthday… today the day of collection I received a refund no explanation nothing.. drove to the shop in swords closed..

19/03/2025: Great bakery that serves lovely coffee and almond slices.🍰

27/12/2024: Original Review Prices are absolutely despicable, every item on the menu is anywhere between 0.50 to 2.50 dearer than other Chinese takeaways in Blanch... and the food is nothing special Updated 27/12/24 Tried this again under new ownership. The prices are still high but so is everything else now due to inflation so it's not as ridiculous. The quality and portion sizes are good.

23/12/2024: Host used to serve the best spice bags in Dublin 15—they were absolutely perfect. Unfortunately, that’s no longer the case. I bought spice bags today, and the moment I opened the bag, it was clear something had changed. The smell was off, the contents were coated in a sticky syrup, and the shredded chicken was uncomfortably chewy. We tried to give it a chance, but it was so bad we had to throw it all away. The taste was indescribable—like a mix of cinnamon and sugar. Spice bags are not meant to be sweet, and this was a huge disappointment.

06/03/2025: Best coffees and pastries, ample place to sit and eat there as well. Good place to sit and relax with a book or chat with friends while having their range of coffees and fresh bakes. Must try when in the area.

02/02/2025: 3.70 is lethal for a americano, nearly €5 for a mocha, the manager needs to lower there expenditure by a lot, especially with inflation and people being more financially vigilant.

10/01/2025: Brutal service.order had leaked or spilt all over the place . Driver asked for a tray to put it on as bag was going to fall apart contents all over the place. Rang to complain , first order collected 40 min later second order delivered 50 after that . Over all an hour and a half delayed for a €63 order . Compensated with some prawn crackers Shame it's lovely food

12/12/2024: Really bad takeaway experience. Ordered food online for delivery well in advance for a specific time. Having friends around for dinner. I don’t mind food arriving a little early or a little late. That’s normal. Food was delivered 52 minutes early. No one here. Friends were t due for another hour. Ridiculous. I pointed this out to delivery driver. Showed him on the docket the specified time. He gave it to me and left. I rang diep bray and asked what was going on. Was told if I return the order they’ll send another one out. I explained the driver had gone. They said they would send another out. I said don’t bother, just have the driver collect it when they deliver the new food. They were hardly going to give my 1 hour order to anyone else so what was the point. Told them putting kids to bed. Ten mins later 4 missed calls. Driver attempted to recollect food. I rang again and explained I was putting kids to bed. I was assured food would be delivered. Friends arrive. Still no food. Ten mins later doorbell rings. Acceptable time for food arrival. No. It was the driver looking to collect the food delivered over an hour previously. No food to deliver. I ring diep bray in a rant. They said as soon as food arrives back in the shop they will place new order. What a joke. Won’t be ordering there again. Amateurs.

29/01/2025: Don't waste your time. The kebab I ordered was smaller than a petrol station wrap, barely any salad or sauce. Taco chips weren't homemade, just regular fries with barely any toppings. Embarrassing.

23/08/2024: “Little” in name, but “Huge” in quality. The best fish and home-made chips we’ve had in a long, long time. They even allowed us to sit in to eat and offered some cutlery too! Highly recommended! ❤️

18/03/2025: Waited an hour an a half for a pizza and garlic pizza joke of a place excuse was it Patrick's day

29/01/2025: Waiting 20 min for a kids meal. Absolutely joke!

25/01/2025: Always delicious, we've been ordering for absolutely years

12/12/2024: I got a spice bag and bubble tea. It was rly good value, €10. It was yummy but my stomach rly hurt afterwards.

10/04/2025: Completely wrong order didn’t get Minecraft toy.

09/04/2025: Advertising 24-hour availability when the driveway and store are frequently closed at night is misleading and constitutes poor service.

07/03/2025: Awful food. Had I seen the reviews before buying it I would have avoided the place. Just got got home with the food to throw all away, won't be ordering from this place again.

20/02/2025: treated myself to takeaway after catching up with friend and the match. 4 & 1 ordered and salt&chilli chicken wings... Large tray of wings only contained 5 chicken wings..i could see the bottom of the tray! Used mixed veg to make it look like more. Also very oily and not too spicy either. For €6.20 a portion takeaway this was the most miserable portion of chicken wings I have ever received.

26/11/2024: Lovely place and people. Don't miss it as it's somewhat hidden around corners. We found it as we exited the public parking garage through a back door, otherwise we might have not found it . Small cozy place, perfect atmosphere, great food for a snack or a full meal. Great prices too.

08/02/2025: The kebab is very delicious and a very good portion, it is worth it👍🏻

30/01/2025: Got a kebab 3 times from here,they were good but in 2 out of the three times I found hair inside the food(2x in a row).Place looks unclean.

22/02/2025: This business takes non-EU nationals for "work" and "trials" to take advantage and then does not pay them!! They get free labour and expensive prices. Please avoid this place at all!! The WRC is already aware and it is just a matter of time they will be closed down and fined, and the former employees will get their wages.

22/02/2025: They do not treat their employees with respect, they do not pay them the hours and they are exploitative. They do not pay their workers and they are exploitative.

02/04/2025: Starbucks never disappoints when it comes to consistent quality and a welcoming vibe. The interior is modern and cozy, with plenty of seating options whether you’re looking to catch up on work with the free Wi-Fi or simply enjoy a quiet coffee break. The menu offers a wide range of beverages and snacks that cater to all tastes, and the seasonal drinks are always a delightful surprise. Although the place can get busy during peak hours, the staff remains friendly and efficient. Overall, it’s a reliable spot to grab your favorite coffee and relax.

08/02/2025: On 08/02/2025 between 4 and 5 PM, my sister-in-law, who doesn't speak English well, had a very unpleasant experience at Starbucks. She was waiting for me for about 10-15 minutes with a coffee from another shop because I, a regular Starbucks customer, had asked her to meet me there. During this short wait, a staff member rudely asked her to leave, speaking loudly enough that others turned their heads. This was embarrassing and made her feel uncomfortable, especially since she didn't understand the situation well. I later spoke to the supervisor, who was polite and apologetic. I hope for better staff training in the future to handle such situations more professionally.
