Peacocks
Swords
03/05/2025: If I could give the food less than 1 star I would. The worst food Iāve ever been served in my life. I got the roast of the day with ham, the ham was almost grey and was super dry and tasteless. The veg and roast potatoes were clearly frozen too. The stuffing also tasteless and even by looking at it you could see there wasnāt any herbs in it. Nothing at all on my plate was made fresh. My partner got the Tex mex burger and onion rings. Onion rings tasted of pure oil, and the burger that was meant to have chili beef mince on it wasnāt chili beef at all, it was tomato bolognese. Chips were fine but you canāt go too wrong with them. Bill came to 50 euro with two drinks, definitely not worth it, would never eat here again. Service and staff were lovely though.
22/04/2025: Great pint of guiness and the food is lovely,chicken burger is gorgeous, the staff are excellent and very friendly. Tv's are all around so you can see the sport from anywhere ,Depending on the time, it could be quiet enough ,but the pints make up for that š
another meal today , and once again, the food was lovely. The guiness is also great , can't complain š

Milano
Swords
10/05/2025: Definitely one of the largest shopping centres I've seen in Ireland. It has multiple entrances depending on which direction you're coming from. Inside, you can find everything from restaurants and supermarkets to pharmacies and even the post office. There are plenty of coffee shops where you can have a full meal or something small to grab like sandwiches or pizza slices. It's very easy to reach by public transport, bus number 41 from the city centre stops right in front. If you're driving, thereās plenty of parking available. Parking is free for the first 2 hours.
07/05/2025: Great selection of shops and food offerings

Pomodorino Swords
Swords
21/04/2025: Unfortunately we had to leave before even sitting down the girl serving was incredibly rude almost seemed like we had annoyed her by daring to come in so we went to the japanese next door where the service was superb. It's a pity as we would have liked a pizza
20/04/2025: Visiting during the Easter holidays and after having seen the Little Big program on television
Italy and your Vittoria we were inclined to
dine at your restaurant on Easter Sunday.
From your website we read that you are
Open but at 8pm we found the
Door closed.
What a disappointment!!!

Empoli Restaurant
Swords
05/05/2025: Food is top class. Been here several times, mostly on Sundays, so not busy to have to reserve.
Jujeh chicken is very tasty and good size portions with a choice of side dish, I chose garlic potatoes. My husband had Americano pizza, also very good. No complaints.
Dessert has to be Tirimisu, the best I've had, including in Italy. Portions are generous with good coffee too.
Service was good, atmosphere is cosy with 80s background music.
Good value for money, will be back and recommend it.
27/04/2025: Nicely decorated venue on Swords Main Street. Mainly set up for hosting parties and large groups

J2 Sushi
Swords
25/04/2025: Really good and fresh food. Their sushi is delicious but I recommend trying the other dishes too, especially the soups or the grill. They have a meal deal where you can choose from a sushi combo, bento box or wok noodle dishes. The bento box is probably the best value for money.
11/04/2025: Awful - 2nd time eating here.
Worst sushi ever... Repeating on me now.

Wine House
Swords
02/05/2025: My family come here for birthdays and special occasions etc. The atmosphere and food is lovely, but it's the staff that always make the experience! We love coming back.
27/04/2025: We recently celebrated our daughter's baptism at this wonderful restaurant, and it was an unforgettable experience.
The upstairs room, prepared especially for us, was perfect for our group of around 15ā20 people ā intimate, welcoming, and beautifully arranged.
From start to finish, the service was outstanding. The managers and staff were attentive, kind, and truly made us feel at home.
The food exceeded all expectations: every dish was delicious, served in generous portions, and praised by all our guests.
We are deeply grateful to the entire team for helping us create such a special and memorable day.
We would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone ā whether for a special celebration or simply a romantic dinner for two.

The Arch Bar
Swords
27/04/2025: Packed. Perfect if you want to chat with friends, have some grub, watch the soccer. Plenty of screens.
Not particularly clean, bathrooms were better than average but the tables aren't cleaned properly and the service isn't great, although some of the floor staff were lovely.
They said they wouldn't take a booking and it was walk-in only. When 2 of 4 of us arrived they still said they couldn't keep a table for us, we just had to watch for one to become available.
A woman and her 3 little boys left so the 4 of us sat down at their vacated table. It took a while to get the floor staff's attention to clear the table. When she finally did, she didn't bother to come back to clean the table or give us menus.
The table was manky with bits of saucy meat all over it and the seats that mashed into my dress.
One girl forgot a plate of fries we ordered, we could tell she didn't register the fries at the end of the order so we asked did she get it, she said she did but the fries never arrived until we asked another girl for them.
Food was lovely and red wine delicious, surprisingly cheaper than we expected.
The 2-piece band Miami Trice began at 10pm Saturday night. Singer was exceptional, guitarist probably was too but it was hard to tell over the heavy backing track.
Music was too loud for us to chat so we left but there were some older women up dancing and loving the music.
Place was still packed, the band were banging out Tina Turner & Manic Monday.
22/04/2025: Lovely food and a nice pint of Guinness, the staff are really nice š they had a steak offer on the menu , 16oz Tbone or 8oz fillet for ā¬20. Football on the tvs also, so no complaints š
2nd visit and once more no complaints, the staff were very nice and the food was lovely. Always a good atmosphere.
3rd visit. Another lovely family meal yesterday, again the food was lovely and the staff were very nice and helpful. There was a nice ballad session starting at 8 pm, which was great to hear. Thanks
