11/08/2026: Delighted to see I could get a few craft brews in this pub. Very friendly spot,

25/04/2026: Nice local, staff the same for years & are solid. Place is spotless. Place needs a refurb though. Support local

01/08/2026: We love ya Mizzonis, but we don’t love the size of the lil shrimp you’re calling a chicken tender these days… they used to be a finger and a bit long. Are ye chopping them in half these days or what? There were 5 more of these little ‘nuggets’ in the box.

01/08/2026: Excellent service and lovely staff.

22/08/2026: Was looking forward to visiting but overall wouldn't recommend or go back. The iced chocolate was lovely, but the signature hot chocolate was pretty naff. I've bought their hot chocolate pods before to make at home and it tasted way nicer than what I paid for in store. We also bought a selection of chocolates which were all just dropped in a bag together, whenever we have been to a chocolatiers before they usually put them in a box that keeps them separate, so it was a shame to pay 90c a chocolate for them to all be dropped in a bag together. They were nice chocs and it hasn't put me off buying Butlers, but I wouldn't make a special trip to the cafe like we did.

07/06/2026: I like butlers but please teach and ask your staff to prepare the coffee or mocha every time with same consistency, there is no perfect formula , each employee makes in different styles which feels bad to taste some times

01/09/2026: Great menu, reasonable prices, fantastic staff. Dog friendly outside, top notch!

27/08/2026: Delicious food and friendly staff.

13/06/2026: Food was absolutely amazing. Was served late and staff was super nice. First time eating from here. Green curry and Red curry was amazing. Also had the duck spring rolls and spicy chicken as starters. All very tasty. Highly recommended

09/06/2026: Only gotten takeout from here a couple of times, rang order in when on route, always ready when they said it would be. Order correct, food delicious and friendly staff. Would recommend and will be back.

22/08/2026: The meat was quite dry, and the lamb had a strong gamy smell that was off-putting.

11/07/2026: Five stars for Ah Cong's service, oh my god!

14/06/2026: Best doner kebab enough for 2 people amazing would recommend

24/05/2025: Great takeaway, definitely the best in Swords. Also all halal!

08/10/2025: Offered a 2nd tea bag for large tea then charged me another €1

15/09/2025: Food and coffee were scrumptious, tables were clean, sheltered from rain and warm, music a bit loud and not my choice, everything else perfect for a Sunday brunch.

04/09/2026: Sooo disgusted by the quality of pizza I received tonight. 20 bucks for a dry pizza with little to no cheese and toppings. Threw it in the bin

24/08/2026: Absolute joke of a place - order through uber eats with delivery estimate of 30 mins - at 40 mins I called the restaurant and they said they have a policy of not accepting orders with non Irish phone numbers and that he would have to start the order manually himself. 1 hour later I get a call that it had been left in hotel reception only to soon realise it had been delivered to another hotel - driver had to go back and pick it up and deliver to me and of course the pizza and cookies were stone cold - 2.5 hours waiting for shite food and no apology- AVOID

31/08/2026: Amazing food, fantastic service! Will definitely be back!!

16/06/2026: These guys are the best. Only once from probably 100 visits the quality was bad. They were very professional and its still on of my favourite places. All staff super friendly and great food. Highly recommend

01/09/2026: I was really hungry after my long shift and thought to takeaway from this restaurant. So I went through their menu and thought of ordering Spice Bag as it was the safest option I feel instead of trying something new. So I took the spice bag and when I opened it to try It was really dry and there’s nothing spice in that just some chips and salty chicken like no onions and any other ingredients like what we expect in a normal spice bag

30/08/2026: Always great service and good food.

09/08/2026: Thought we’d give this place a try after receiving a menu through the letterbox. In hindsight, the menu should probably have stayed in the letterbox. We ordered black bean crispy chicken and egg fried rice as the mains, along with a few starters. And this is where the regrets began… and continued… and, frankly, multiplied. The chicken balls were undercooked, with batter that appeared to have been filled with water rather than cooked properly. The prawn toast was less “prawn toast” and more “toast that had once heard rumours about prawns”. The black bean sauce was strangely chewy — not a quality normally associated with sauce. The crispy chicken was suspiciously un-chicken-like in both appearance and flavour. At this stage, questions were being asked and trust was rapidly disappearing. Then came the egg fried rice — delivered in what can only be described as a compact rubber brick. It looked more boiled than fried and had the consistency of something that had been dropped from a height and then reassembled. By the end of the meal, we were no longer eating dinner — we were conducting a culinary investigation. Without question, the worst Chinese takeaway experience we’ve ever had. What started as “let’s give the new place a try” quickly became “why on earth did we do that?” Hopefully this review saves someone else from making the same mistake. Avoid. Avoid. AVOID. Your stomach, your taste buds and your future self will thank you.

22/02/2026: I got a spicebag today and it was unbelievable, the curry sauce was amazing and the food was ready for collection quickly. Will definitely be back for more again🙌

13/09/2026: Lovely home cooked food, very fresh. We sat in for dinner and had great, friendly service. It seems to operate mainly as a takeaway as we were the only people sitting inside but everything was very clean and well presented and we were well looked after.

10/09/2026: Really tasty and great portion sizes

02/09/2026: Still one of the best burger chains on the planet

31/08/2026: I went here on sunday and was just so shocked at how bad the place has gotten. The whole place was filthy, bins overflowing, food everywhere. They had run out of everything on the menu except for burgers and chips... there wasn't even any cheese left to put in the burgers? Took 20 minutes for an order of 2 burgers and 1 portion of chips. There were about 8 people behind the counter, all friendly and in great form, but just not doing any work. Ill attach the photos, it was so so so bad. My burger also had the outer skin of an onion in it which had the texture and consistency of plastic. You would genuinely be better off getting a sandwich from dunnes, this place is brutal
