Hogs & Heifers
Swords
17/01/2026: I went with a group of 14 friends and the food was good. I must highlight that Mia offered an excellent service and was very lovely.
17/01/2026: We went for dinner as a group of 14 people and the experience was excellent. Everything we ordered was correct and well organised, which is really appreciated when dining in a large group.
Mia’s service was impeccable, always attentive and professional.
A solid 10/10.
Highly recommended and we will definitely be back!!

Green Straw
Swords
20/12/2025: Visited for breakfast on the 16th. We ordered chicken benny, Turkish eggs, cheesecake, and 2 lattes. Later, I noticed the receipt charged €5 extra for 3 Blue Pea Lemonades, which we didn’t order.
Also, our lattes were initially swapped with matcha, though the staff fixed it quickly. The café was very busy, so extra staff during peak hours might help.
Overall, food was tasty; slightly larger portions or extra slice of bread would match the price better. But I hope this kind of mistake doesn’t happen to other customers.
14/12/2025: We visited Green Straw for breakfast in Dublin and tried the holiday specials menu, including the Bang Bang Chicken, Christmas sandwich, and caramel pancakes, everything was delicious. The flavors were amazing, the vibe was cozy, and the staff were incredibly welcoming. The chef even visited our table to check if everything was fine and explained the dishes, which made the experience feel extra special. One of the best breakfast spots we’ve been to, highly recommended and a must-visit whenever I’m in Ireland.

The Old School House
Swords
10/01/2026: Massive portions..
Was surprised with food quality in such a busy place.. everything on top
09/01/2026: I know the picture quality is terrible, but it's a pub and it's a bit dark 😂. I've been flying to Ireland for the holidays for years now, and every year this is our go-to spot for a fantastic Irish steak in Swords. We've never had a bad meal, whether it's a winged burger or something else; this one has been consistently fantastic for years. Thanks to the team. 🫶🏻

Empoli Restaurant
Swords
30/12/2025: Asked for a jug of water twice and never received. Pasta was hard and garlic bread tasteless. Service in general very disappointing as it was our first time coming here.
27/12/2025: We didn't have any reservations, but luckily, the waitress found a table for us during the busy hours. This restaurant is an excellent spot in Swords, which might be easy to miss, but it's definitely worth seeking out. The food is the real star – so delicious Plus, the owner and waitress provide wonderful, attentive service. The food, both gluten-free and regular pasta, was very delicious.

Wine House
Swords
02/01/2026: The best restaurant in Swords! Very delicious and tasty food, beautifully presented and full of flavour. The service was excellent — friendly, attentive and professional. A fantastic atmosphere and a great wine selection to match the food. Highly recommended, we will definitely be back!
11/12/2025: Cutlery & glasses were 5 star spotless. Waiters couldn't remember who had ordered what, literally minutes later. Wings were bit dry ;but tasted of Frank's sauce, needs sauce pre service i suggest...Food was ok,steak was not hot, chips were ok, proper sauce ok. . Rocket salad was sad looking tbh. Desert was Tiramisu, tasty.....coffee good & solid.... Party upstairs felt like it was coming through the roof, ruined the experience. Staff friendly but needs training i suggest.... prices are reasonable and would recommend.

J2 Sushi
Swords
16/12/2025: Absolutely the best ramen I've ever eaten in my life. I couldn't find anything similar in other places. The tonkotsu ramen literally feeds your soul. Thank you. I recommend it. Unlike eating wild berries in the woods.
09/12/2025: We went on a Monday and it was empty, but I think on a normal day the environment would be fun and cozy. I ordered a miso soup but it never came with my sushi but other than that service was ok. Overall it was a good deal for a lunch menu, like 12 euro for a couple of sushi.

Parking is convenient, and there’s a lovely atmosphere no matter what time you visit. A great place for shopping, grabbing a bite to eat, or just spending a few hours browsing. Highly recommend!
