The best restaurants in Malahide

09/04/2026: Love this place. They have it just right, food is amazing and service excellent, we’re regulars!!

07/04/2026: Delicious, delicious, delicious. Such variety and flavour.

11/04/2026: The staff were extremely accommodating of our walk in without a reservation and still got us seated and gave us a high chair. We only shared pizzas and they were average but will come back and check this place out again as the ribs looked good and the service was very welcoming.

05/04/2026: Update on our 3rd trip in 2026 .. still superb. Love this place. Ribs are beyond stunning.

16/04/2026: Had an incredible experience, food was deliciosa and staff and really kind and friendly.

16/04/2026: Top-quality Italian food. Reservations required. Always busy.

22/02/2026: Excellent experience! I was there yesterday, and Taha, the chef, made the best steak I’ve ever had in my life. Absolutely delicious! Highly recommended!

15/01/2026: Excellent service! Perfect beer! I highly recommend it!

14/03/2026: Incredibly impressed with the food. Definitely coming back to try their dinner menu at some point

14/02/2026: The food was incredible. Had the Prawns and a steak sandwich, both of which exceeded our expectation. The staff is just the right amount of attentive and are extremely friendly. Only note I would have is the music was a tiny bit loud, making it hard to hear each other

30/12/2025: What a wonderful experience. Food was a culinary delight and the service was attentive without being intrusive. Lovely atmosphere and a great view of the sea. Will definitely return and recommend

20/12/2025: The food was nice but nothing particularly special. However the staff were really friendly and the atmosphere was lovely. I had a lovely relaxed brunch with a nice view. I would eat here again.

21/04/2026: 2026 and we have come back again. Still, as ever, Gibney's doesn't disappoint. The food was very tasty and value for money. The staff are excellent, warm and friendly (everything you expect from the Irish people). It is a place we are always looking forward to visiting on our trips to Ireland. This time it was in an evening and quite busy, a little claustrophobic and noisy but what do you expect from a popular drinking establishment! Still worth it

15/04/2026: The food and service were exceptional.

21/03/2026: First time trying this cafe, as every time I have passed before could not gain entry due to how popular it is 😊 Went on a quieter weekday lunch time and had ham & cheese toastie with a white coffee. My friend had veggie burrito and an iced matcha latte. Food is hearty and coffee is good . Staff friendly indoor and some outdoor seating available also. Good veggie and vegan options.

28/02/2026: Great food spot/cafe in the heart of Malahide. Delicious food and great service!

24/03/2026: Honestly, I might’ve walked in with a high expectation on the food. I’ve had the chicken Milanese which was alight, the breading was a bit soggy, didn’t have any taste of lemon which in my opinion is essential in that dish and i don’t why they added some sweet yellow paste in there, which in my opinion just ruins the point of the chicken Milanese because frankly why would a salty and lemon ish dish would have something so sweet in it?.my gf had some sea food pasta she really enjoyed it. But apart from that Milanese great place. Love the aesthetic of the building👍

23/03/2026: Alfredo gave me the most amazing service. Unbelievable, early bird menu. Thank you Alfredo. I’ll be back!

11/04/2026: Lovely experience from start to finish. Great atmosphere, amazing food and great service! Dawid topped the experience with brilliant customer service which was much appreciated. Will come back. Highly recommended.

10/04/2026: Incredible food, I went during Easter and their set menu was fantastic. What makes it stand out is the level of personal service. Was a fantastic experience overall!

20/04/2026: "Disappointing return visit today. I used to really enjoy coming here, but it feels like the maintenance has slipped—the tables and outdoor chairs are in need of a deep clean and some repair. I also found the portions to be quite small for the cost, and the coffee lacked flavor. It’s a shame to see such a nice spot lose its spark; I hope the management takes a look at these details to bring the quality back up."

06/04/2026: The breakfast was incredible as was the mimosa! I recommend the avocado, poached eggs, salmon and rocket on their brioche Toast, it was 5 stars all the way!!! but... I also ordered the carrot cake which I was really dissapointed with, hence the 4 stars and not 5.

15/03/2026: Bald man with the beard at the bar was extremely rude to us but all the reviews seem to say that about him we are weekly customers in fowlers. Food is good and all other members of staff are nice. TVs are also absolutely abysmal looks like the football is being played in the 1980s

23/02/2026: Great pub to watch the football at.

11/04/2026: Very cold seating. Cold atmosphere. Burger was ok.

04/04/2026: Great service - Great Staff 5 🌟

15/03/2026: Best view points for forth bridges.

04/03/2026: Very nice hotel in a great location.

14/04/2026: They don't have a drink menu for soft drinks and beer, only for wine. My wife and kids had yellow curry, which was also on the kids menu and marked as mild. After the first bite, the kids started crying because the food was spicy and burned their tongues. The taste was bland, almost not good. For us, this is definitely the worst Thai restaurant we've ever been to.

12/04/2026: So my 14 year old son and I have been going for over 10 years once a month every month. He liked the kids prawns and chips. Today the staff refused to allow us to get him food from kids menu saying he is too old which I think is so unfair. But apparently rules are rules and as he is older than 12 he couldn’t order off kids menu. So I told them I will never return and I mean it. So you made your extra 10 euro but you lost about 1000 of business per year. It’s not much but it is never full and we always eat and left as quick as McDonald’s and looking to charge kids adult prices is just greedy if you ask me…
