The best restaurants in Swords

22/08/2026: Stopped in here today for the first time. No idea why I've never been before but it was fantastic. Salad bowl/plate with hummus and falafel, so much I almost couldn't finish it and I'm a big eater! Incredibly fresh, brilliant presentation, and all for £9.50 and no animals hurt during the production! What could be better. Constant stream of customers so that says something. Great work guys! Keep those chains away!

15/08/2026: The most amazing falafel and hummus I have ever had with great service and friendly staff. The choice of toppings is vast and all vegan/veg friendly. Great food for healthy eaters!

25/08/2026: A wonderful place. I visit regularly for breakfast, lunch or coffee and cake. ( especially pistachio cheesecake 🍰🥰) The menu is varied, and everything is delicious. You can really feel that the staff puts a lot of heart and hard work into this place. I’m always confident I’ll get tasty, high-quality food here. See you next time! 🙂

25/08/2026: The food was absolutely amazing!

01/09/2026: Always the friendliest staff with the best coffee , would recommend to all my friends and family

25/08/2026: was served by Abby! Such a lovely girl! has a very nice attitude and great customer service! coffee was lovely too🥰

18/09/2026: Lovely restaurant with great service at a reasonable price

17/09/2026: Exceptional service from Mia recently at our visit! She was extremely helpful, super welcoming and very attentive to our table. We came with a baby- we were given a high seat immediately, which was appreciated! Food was incredibly tasty as always! Highly recommend wings, burgers, and mac cheese. Always makes a difference when having such good service so please let Mia know we thought she made our visit- we will absolutely be back and will be recommending to others!

12/09/2026: Update: not only the pizza, the sandwiches are a must! Their focaccia is the best!! The pizza is delicious. I am Italian and was really impressed. At first I thought the owner was Italian too, then they explained that they visited Italy so many times that they wanted to recreate the real Italian pizza. I have to admit that everything was delicious, including the cannolo, fabulous.

27/08/2026: For lunch, the focaccia sandwiches are very good, all made fresh. The pizzas too are really tasty, pretty good selection too. The staff are brilliant, very courteous and know their trade despite their young age. Would recommend

15/09/2026: The food was great. Super service. Great pub! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

13/09/2026: Went down on Thursday for my daughters birthday. Price online for steak and ribs was 20.95. Price on menu in pub 25.95. Steak was very chewy but ribs were lovely. In fairness they adjusted the price to 20.95 when paying. Asked the waitress to put a candle in my daughter's desert and when it came out with a different waitress it wasnt done. The original waitress came over and apologised and took the desert off the bill. Cant ask for much more than that in fairness. Kids had the trio of tacos which they enjoyed. Wife had chicken caeser salad which was warm last time but cold this time.

19/09/2026: Had a lovely relaxed lunch here, food was beautiful. Service was brilliant, no rushing you off the table or to place your order. Great place to have a catch up as although was busy you don't feel you are involved in other people's conversation. Will definitely be back

01/09/2026: Great brunch date with the girls.. lovely staff and food was wonderful

04/09/2026: Great place to eat and good value for money. Staff very nice

08/08/2026: Amazing atmosphere, amazing service. Went here for my brother's birthday and had a blast. Thank you for the great and friendly service! Hope to see you soon again

13/07/2026: Friendliest staff and tastiest treats ❤️ Thank you Fianna, Marian and team!

31/05/2026: Great coffee, lovely treats and fantastic staff

25/08/2026: €12 for a take away sausage roll and oat cake. Too expensive for a small amount of food especially the oat cake which is just like a savoury scone.

30/07/2026: Almost felt like I should speak french in the place

27/08/2026: Cool hidden pub in Swords district up by airport.

19/08/2026: Nice pub. Have been here for a late lunch break. Live music Wednesday to Sunday evenings (I think, check the website, https://cocktavern.ie/)

08/09/2026: I have come here a few times with family and food is always a high standard. Great selection of food and drink. Plenty of space for parties. I love there new garden terrace. They also music every friday, saturday and sunday. Staff are really nice and helpful

13/08/2026: I ate and drank well... Pub area... restaurant area. We had a great time. Recommend it! 👍🍻

12/09/2026: Arrived with 86 and 88 year old parents. The centre advertises as having wheelchairs available to hire, which was the reason we chose here. Arrived to be told the centre only has 2 wheelchairs and both were out. Outrageous to advertise a service that is realisticly not going to be available. If you have need of such a service, go to Liffey Valley. They at least provide the service they claim to have

06/09/2026: I love the store Elle on 1° floor , Danielle is very helpful and friendly, the store has nice pants in small sizes at an affordable price, I definitely recommend it.

14/08/2026: Without doubt the best restaurant, not only in Swords but in Dublin! If you have not been, you might miss it from outside, but when you walk in , it’s simple 5 ⭐️set up, service & friendliness from the owners & the food is nearly 6⭐️! Chicken wings to die for & pasta & pizza combination which we had was out of this world.. I’d go back every night if I could.. 😋

29/06/2026: I have only eaten here once and enjoyed the food experience very much. My mains was for better than my starter. We were 3 in our group and everyone enjoyed their meal. We will be back.. .

14/09/2026: Very good food & very good service & very professional staff

29/08/2026: We order regularly from here. Food is great and service is excellent. I had a problem with the loyalty scheme and the manager was super kind following up to make sure it was resolved. Highly recommended.
