Greedy Goose
Malahide
01/10/2025: Excellent food and service. You are crammed in, maybe 2 ft between tables.

Dubh
01/10/2025: What an incredible experience at the DUBH bar. I met a bartender Babou who absolutely made my day with his crafted, proper pour of Guiness with shamrocks on top. I would make him Head of Customer Relations for any hospitality business I start in the future. What a great man, and a great experience, at Dublin Airport.
23/09/2025: What lovely people! Thank you for making our long journey a bit more pleasant.

Noisette Artisan Bakery
Rush
12/09/2025: Visited today for first time with a friend. I am in love with the cinnamon swirls & the sourdough is so nice. Outside seating is good, doesn’t feel exposed even though it’s on a busy Main Street. Will definitely be back.
30/08/2025: Pastries have been getting smaller and smaller recently, sadly. Shrinkflation I'm guessing but still high quality

Hogs & Heifers
Swords
18/10/2025: It is a place with a nice atmosphere and ambiance. There are plenty of spacious seating areas. The cocktails and food options are quite satisfying. The staff were friendly and fast. It’s not exactly an open kitchen, but you can still see the kitchen area which is nice.
15/10/2025: After being seated we were left sitting for 25 minutes and only then a waiter asked if we were ready to order our food. We had not yet even been offered drinks
Aside from us ordering drinks, our food being delivered, service was poor.
There were 6 of us (4 adults and 2 x17 year olds). We were there for a family dinner.
The food was substatial but lacked any pizazz.
The lack of meat in the beef fajitas was incredible, but plenty of PEPPERS AND ONIONS.
I always tip however there was a 10% service charge added already so considering my bill was €168 the added another €16.80,
(Now the fact they call it service charge and the service was non existant )
I was looking forward to this family occasion but felt very let down, it wasn't even too busy but possibly understaffed.
We didn't leave hungry but I don't think we were satisfied.

La Papessa Pizza
Swords
17/10/2025: First time trying here. The pizza itself was extremely tasty and the dough was super soft and melt in the mouth. However, I ordered for collection and was told via the website it’d be ready at 18:18 but was left waiting until 18:50. This is a small criticism as the timings given just need to be adjusted to make it more realistic. If the pizza could be pre cut too that would be a nice touch.
09/10/2025: I went to this place expecting to eat a good pizza, but instead I found a masterpiece.
As an Italian, I can say without a doubt that I’ve eaten one of the best pizzas you can find in all of Ireland.
If you still have some room left, the dessert pizzas are truly the icing on the cake.
As if that weren’t enough, the owner is incredibly kind and welcoming.
The prices are not high at all compared to the exceptional quality of the products.
In case it isn’t clear, I absolutely recommend this place.
Unfortunately, I’m forced to give only 5 stars because I can’t give 10.
Absolutely perfect.

Chopstix
21/10/2025: Experience here was very good including food and service
19/10/2025: The girl working there was super nice and had such a great vibe really friendly and positive energy. The portions were generous and the food tasted good. Only thing was the chicken was a bit chewy this time, but everything else was spot on. Definitely coming back again.

The Old School House
Swords
16/10/2025: Was an absolute delight to find. Warm and inviting. Lively atmosphere and outstanding food.
16/10/2025: The best Fish and Chips you could ask for! I highly recommend the Smoked Haddock and the Schooler Burger. A great addition to the meal is the Galway Girl Hazy IPA (not super hoppy with a blonde ale palette).
The staff is super kind as well. I appreciate how simple it is to order and ask questions. The music is hits from the last few decades. It’s nice hearing The Killers and then Tom Petty.
Whoever is running this place had a great head on their shoulders.
I am only in Ireland for the night, but I sure as hell will come back for that Smoked Haddock. Life won’t be the same in America.

That's Amore
Malahide
14/10/2025: Literally the best Italian I've been to. Delicious food and I would always recommend the seafood specials. The most friendly and welcoming staff. Worth ringing ahead as they are usually booked out but sometimes you will be lucky. This is a no brainier whether it's a date or a family meal. Can't recommend enough ♥️
14/10/2025: Small but excellent food and service

Scotch Bonnet
Malahide
15/10/2025: The service was very polite and fast. We ordered two dishes to share and two main courses — everything was truly EXCELLENT. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Malahide. I’m not giving the full rating only because we had to sit outside even though the weather wasn’t great, as we had our dog with us (something quite absurd but common here in Ireland). However, they were really kind and brought a bowl of water for the dog.
18/09/2025: Perfect in every way! Very friendly service. The food was just what we were looking for and catered to everyone in the family. Great options for children not just the standard nuggets and chips. I will definitely be returning next time we visit Malahide 😁

The Cock Tavern, menu
Swords
08/09/2025: My boyfriend and I had a great time here on our last night in Ireland before returning to the States. We got there too late to eat but there was live music, lots of great beers and whiskies, gracious bartenders and a terrific atmosphere. We highly recommend and hope to go back again.
04/09/2025: 2 people, good atmosphere, good service.
All you can ask for.

Café Jacques
Skerries
07/09/2025: Lovely cafe and view. Great food options and lovely staff.
05/09/2025: Absolutely loved my visit to Café Jacques in Skerries!
We had 2 Cappuccino’s with Caramel Syrup which were 10/10.
Pancake with Nutella and Strawberry 10/10
Cajun Chicken Panini 7/10 (Dry, very little sauce)
The location is fantastic with a stunning view that makes the whole experience extra special.
The food was really nice, fresh and well presented, but the real star for me was the coffee – it was amazing!
Service was warm, friendly, and attentive, which made us feel very welcome. A brilliant spot all around.
I’ll definitely be back and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Skerries.
