Starbucks Airside Smyths
Swords
20/04/2025: Please don't make your customers uncomfortable for quilting them for 2 euro for charity, the coffee is expensive enough as it is.
17/04/2025: Disappointing Experience at Starbucks Belgard, Tallaght
We had a very disappointing experience at this location recently. One of the managers or supervisors — a Romanian woman who seems to be in charge often — was noticeably rude and unprofessional, not only towards us as customers but also in how she interacted with staff.
She was openly criticising a new employee in front of everyone while instructing her on how to prepare a hot chocolate. Rather than guiding her calmly, she came across as impatient and condescending, which made for an uncomfortable atmosphere.
To make matters worse, when she stepped in to demonstrate, she spilled cream over the cup, made a mess, and still handed the drink to the customer without cleaning it or offering an apology. This level of service is unacceptable, especially from someone in a supervisory role.
We understand everyone can have a bad day, but basic customer service and professionalism should always be a standard, particularly in a global brand like Starbucks.

ThaiMa Asian Cuisine

19/03/2025: Nice and tasty food
Friendly staff
23/02/2025: I enjoy alot of dishes here.
Starters, Mains and sides all good.
The only let down is the last few occasions the chips have been of poor quality. Too many bad chips in the bag.
Friendly and obliging staff

Starbucks Swords Pavilions
Swords
24/05/2025: Unfriendly and uninterested staff. Seating area was messy.
06/03/2025: As a tourist from Sweden, this was my first time ever visiting a Starbucks, and I couldn’t be happier with my choice!
I was served by the incredible Oisín!! So polite and cheerful! He single-handedly took my Ireland vacation from a 4/5 to a perfect 5/5! ⭐️ 💛

Pizza Hut Delivery Swords
Swords
01/11/2024: Genuinely never order from here. 1 and a half hours after i ordered i rang and asked where my order was and they claimed they had delivered to the wrong address and when i asked for a refund they stated “someone had called them and changed the address” which did not happen. They just wanted to get away with not giving a refund. Never order from here save ur money and get a Dominos
27/10/2024: This is good for takeouts/ delivery because it doesn’t have a place to dine in. The food was really nice though. I got garlic and cheese fries and asked for extra jalapeño, the garlic is very overpowering so I do not recommend if you are not a garlic person. The pizza was good, the chicken tenders were a little dry but they come with sweet chilli sauce so I guess that’s fine. The food took 15mins so that was good. Overall 7/10

Noah & Co
Swords
16/05/2025: Generally good and affordable food. Nice place to hang around. However the mindset of these type of establishment never ceases to amaze me. I understand not serving items that are meant for breakfast at noon. But not being able to takeaway a sandwich because it's served from noon only and being directed to the place next door with the promise that they might serve it now... This kind of business model and pro customer attitude is still a mistery for me, how are they still making money, no idea. They certainly won't see mine anytime soon. I would have understood if they would have been busy or I would have asked for something "lunchy", but it was just a sandwich. No wonder they're only open in the first half of the day.
19/04/2025: Had breakfast today with my daughter (9). There is no kids menu. I got charged €30 for 1 tea, 1 black coffee, 2 sausages , 2 slices toast, and avocado and eggs. I asked for my meal with bacon which was €3 supplement. When I realised it was one small piece of bacon, I was shocked and asked for the bacon to be removed as I wasn't paying for it. Our food arrived before our drinks when I said it to the manager who brought the food down he just shrugged and said they were busy. The young girls working there are lovely. When paying I told the manager the meal was very expensive. He said the prices will be going up more. I wouldn't recommend this . Food is overpriced for what you get.

Krispy Kreme Swords Pavilion
Swords
18/12/2024: Sour taste in my mouth when I went to pay they don't expect cash. Which is a legal tender and illegal to not expect cash. My friend had to use her card.
I have contacted the regulator about this.
28/09/2024: DONT WASTE YOUR TIME TO APPLY TO WORK HERE !
Personally I’d give 0 stars. I applied to work here online, went to an interview and they smile at your face making you believe you’ve done well in your interview and that you might get the job just to never get back to you.
I recommend the manager running the place to learn some professionalism. It takes less than 30 seconds to copy and paste a generic rejection email for those who did not get the job. The manager is most definitely lazy, unprofessional and disrespectful…. Anyway, thank God, because I wouldn’t want to work in a company with a manager like that !

Roasted Notes

29/05/2025: Excellent coffee shop in the upper area of the Pavillions close to the cinema.
Service is always on point and staff are friendly and welcoming.
Have some great sandwiches available, great pastries and thoroughly delicious coffees.
This is well worth a visit.
24/05/2025: Very busy and crowded. Asked for vanilla in my coffee and paid extra 70c for it but never got it in my coffee. Table was dirty and staff unfriendly. Coffe was nice but it needs more food options too.
