The best restaurants in Swords

03/06/2025: Great sandwich we had in a while. We had one and it was big enough for both of us. We sat outdoors and the weather wasn’t too bad. There is no pizza for lunch so you can only get sandwiches but the pizza is brilliant too.

27/05/2025: Delicious pizza. Best in Swords for sure!

29/05/2025: We just happened upon this small cafe, and I’m so glad we found it. Incredibly friendly staff and excellent food! Don’t miss this hidden gem

22/05/2025: What an amazing experience at this place, the last at the till was super friendly, the food was excellent Made my Ireland experience so much better, will definitely visit again Try the croissant pudding 🤤

13/06/2025: Great service and food, William was a brilliant host and brightened up our lunch

13/06/2025: Had communion lunch here ,food ok quick no waiting staff lovely, plenty of car spaces

14/06/2025: Great place for a bite to eat and a drink. Staff were excellent. Highly recommend

14/06/2025: Definitely a typical and populated pub. Packed with people (reservations recommended). Excellent quality food and lots of variety. Maybe not much for vegetarians (some oriental dishes). Excellent beers!

18/05/2025: Very good food, my wife got the gluten free fish and chips.

12/05/2025: Good pints scran is mind blowing spicy wedges blew the bleedin jocks off me absolutely scintillating even the kids bleedin love em

03/06/2025: The location is pleasant, but my previous visit was terrible. No online documents mention that pets are not allowed there. A few times, I kept my dog on my lap and had no problems. However, the last time they nearly kicked us out of there. I am not complaining about the prohibition, but rather about the unclear documents on the website. I consistently verify this before deciding whether to include him, in order to prevent awkward situations like these.

02/06/2025: Large shopping centre worth a visit if you are in the area

10/05/2025: A restaurant more than a pub. Big and spacious. We were there on Easter Sunday, and while busy, we didn't need a reservation.

03/05/2025: If I could give the food less than 1 star I would. The worst food I’ve 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 wasn’t 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 wasn’t chili beef at all, it was tomato bolognese. Chips were fine but you can’t 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.

15/06/2025: Simple diner serving the most delicious falafel. Plus it’s vegetarian and gluten and dairy free!

12/06/2025: I normally despise falafel because they're so dry but this place had amazingly crispy falafel on the outside and soft in the inside. Their beef meatballs are also perfect.

13/05/2025: The best café! Everything here is super tasty — the coffee, the cakes, the sandwiches… seriously, everything is delicious! But what really makes this place special is the people. The staff is so sweet and polite, and they’re always so kind and gentle with my baby. That wins my heart every time! It’s cozy, welcoming, and full of charm. I feel lucky to have found this gem so close to home. Totally recommended!

26/04/2025: An amazing local resource. Fabulous breads, pastry, hot snacks etc. Coffee is class, service very good. Highly recommended #supportlocal

05/06/2025: First time and will definitely be back! The food was absolutely sublime, it's was fresh, flavourful, hot and so very tasty. Portions were fantastic, I got the "Cacio e pepe", it was so creamy and full of flavour. I also got the raspberry cheesecake cake, was so good I forgot to take a picture. It had a wonderful taste and texture with a beautiful crum on-top. Finished the evening off with a cool refreshing limoncello. We were served by the wonderful Farah, she was so kind, friendly and professional. Definitely recommend and can't wait to return.

03/06/2025: This is such a hidden beauty! Always love going here as it’s such a nice atmosphere and the food is divine. The staff are always friendly. Can’t wait for my next visit!

19/12/2024: We had our Christmas party for the 3rd time there! Food was good as always, but the music wasn't as good as previous years, and one of the bartenders had a bit of an attitude at some point! Overall it was a good experience, and we are looking forward to finding out what's coming next year! P.S.: Ruaidhri was there for us every year for our Christmas parties, making sure that we are having the best experience, so we do hope that we will see him there again in the new wrights adventure!

14/12/2024: Worst place to spend time in Swords

06/06/2025: We got take away. Pizza, chips and wings. Not sure why the delivery food is different from what is posted here, but pizza was a frozen pizza, chips felt like dust and wings tasted of everything but chicken we had to throw the food away that is how bad it was

29/05/2025: Myself and my husband went for Sunday lunch. We both ordered pasta, it was delicious, with house wine. The service was excellent, we will definitely be back. I was very impressed with the decor too, loved the fresh white linen table cloths

09/06/2025: Super good food recommended it great staff and experience

09/06/2025: Food delicious I recommended spice bag with sweet and sour sauce

19/05/2025: Food was awesome and service was just as good.

07/05/2025: Spacious, great food. Fast service. Very affordable and spoilt for choice. Their matcha brownies are heavenly. Presentation is clean and creative.

16/06/2025: Really good pizza. Prices are average for Ireland. In a previous negative review, I read that a customer complained because they refused to add chicken to the pasta. That’s actually a positive point, well done! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, the waitress was very kind, and the owner of the place was lovely as well.

24/05/2025: Went there tonight, the atmosphere was dead. Ordered bruchetta for Starters. Was chopped cherry tomatoes on cold burned toast. The ravioli for mains was the strangest thing I've ever seen. A pinky/grey sauce. Was average. My wife ordered a pasta and mushroom dish and asked for chicken to be added which they refused to do. She made pasta at home on Monday that would match the quality. With3 pints and 2 glasses of wine for drinks and average food it was 110 euro. The waitresses were lovely so I did leave a tip. I don't think we'll go back.
