The best restaurants in Fingal

13/08/2026: A lovely traditional Irish pub just around the corner from Dublin Airport. The ambiance was great, and the staff were friendly and attentive. It had a wonderful mix of tourists and locals, which gave it a very authentic feel. The food was delicious with generous portions, and I was particularly impressed with the kids’ menu. Instead of the usual fast-food options, they had proper choices — my kids had the penne and really enjoyed it. The portion was just right for them. There was also a great selection of local beers, and plenty of paid parking right next to the pub, which was very convenient. The only downside was the wait for food — we waited about an hour, although the pub was very busy that day, so it may have been an unusually busy service. Overall, definitely worth a visit if you’re staying near Dublin Airport!

05/08/2026: Delicious food, good value for money and the service was friendly and excellent.

04/07/2026: Probably one of the nicest coffees I've had in a long while and under €4! Cakes are nice too!! But the coffee rocks.... I'll be back

09/06/2026: I've been a regular here for a while now, and there's a lot to love — the food is genuinely premium quality, the taste is consistently excellent, and while the prices reflect that, you get what you pay for. That said, I do have one gripe that keeps this from being a five-star experience: the tip culture. I've personally noticed a visible difference in how staff interact with customers depending on whether a tip is given or not — and that's a little uncomfortable. For a takeaway order where there's no table service involved, the expectation to tip feels misplaced. The quality of service shouldn't hinge on a discretionary gratuity, especially in a counter-service setting. Overall, a great bakery with outstanding products — but the experience would be much more welcoming if every customer was treated equally, regardless of tipping.

29/07/2026: An exceptional dining experience from start to finish. The food and service were both exceptional – attentive, friendly and professional throughout. We had the three course set menu for €55, which was excellent value considering the quality of the food. The organic chicken was the standout dish – beautifully cooked and full of flavour. The desserts were beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. The setting is another highlight, with beautiful views overlooking the boats in Malahide Marina, creating a lovely atmosphere. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and will definitely be back. Highly recommended!

23/07/2026: Great lunch there - really good!

05/08/2026: An old fashioned type pub. Food was excellent on our visit.

26/07/2026: Lovely place to go for food and a nice pint 👍

09/08/2026: Used to love Camile as I was able to get the chicken fried rice Gluten Free, but they have stopped offering that option and so am no longer able to order it and my family never order anymore either for fear of disappointing me. It was my go to takeaway and now I'm so disappointed every time I call asking if they have a gluten free option available.

16/07/2026: The staff were not professional and did not make an effort to clean and prepare tables promptly, even when customers were waiting to dine in. In addition, only a single-use plastic fork was provided, which is not appropriate for a dine-in experience. Overall, the service and attention to customer needs were disappointing.

30/07/2026: I had a great experience at this Chinese café. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The fried rice and noodles were especially delicious, and the portions were generous. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who enjoys Chinese cuisine. I’ll be happy to come back again!
