Wrights Cafe Bar
Swords
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!

Supermac's & Papa John's
10/10/2025: Had the worst experience yesterday when I went for dinner, unbelievable.
As soon as I came in I spoke with a girl to place my order, that was fast, she asked me a few times to repeat my order, but no issue on that.
I asked her for table service and she gave me the number and I sat on my table to wait for the food, that’s when my nightmare started.
I’ve been here for food many times and they do usually take a long while in giving you the food, so I was patient, till 35 min passed by and I was looking at the people that was arriving next to me getting served their food before me.
I approached the same girl that I ordered from and asked her if she knew where my food was, she said you ordered garlic bread right? I said yes and she pointed at one that was coming out of the oven in that moment, I knew it wasn’t mine because it didn’t have bacon but I let it passed cause I don’t like complaining or getting into arguments but even her attitude when she pointed at it wasn’t what I would call customer service.
Ten more minutes passed by and I was still without food, when I went back up to her she panicked when she looked at me, went to talk to her supervisor and came back saying someone took my food by mistake. Are we genuenly messing here? Do they not check receipts?? She asked me if I wanted the food or a refund and I said I wanted the refund but I was annoyed cause now I had to drive down to McDonald’s to get food. At this stage she didn’t even say sorry. When I asked when the refund was going to be back into my account she said now and I said right now? And she said in the next 5-7 days. That annoyed me even more and I asked her to just give me the food. The supervisor came down to do the refund but didn’t even bother to talk to me or say sorry I told her I just wanted the food. 5 minutes after she came to my table saying that they had my food but she put it for takeaway and they called my number out but “I didn’t hear it” why should I be hearing whatever they’re talking when I know I ordered table service? So not only she made a mistake but she tried to blame me.
I had to repeat how unfair she was being and that she hadnt even said sorry once and that was the first time that she said I’m sorry and then asked if I wanted the food that was kept for the past 20 min or if I wanted new food. I told her to just give me the food that was standing there. No respect, no apologies, from employee or supervisor.
I definately do not recommend this place after this and I don’t think I’ll ever be back after this horrible experience and overpriced for a garlic bread and chicken wings that btw I asked for bbq sauce and got given frank hot sauce.

Provence
Malahide
10/08/2025: Always busy and Always a winner , why, because you get Value for money. Coffee is good too.
03/08/2025: We often go to 'Cafe Provence' for brunch and have loved it there every time. The food is absolutely delicious and we can genuinely say that about every single thing we tried off their 'Specials' menu. Their desserts are also very fresh delicious. The service is literally second to none with us never having to wait for anything too long. Having worked as a waiter myself, ai can say that the service is of top notch for what the place is.
We will keep coming back as it is definitely worth a drive from Rush.

McHugh's Wine & Dine Portmarnock
Portmarnock
15/10/2024: They have served me food here that's inedible. They have screwed up my orders. They have embarrassed me with an overly loud argument in front of everyone. They have even flirted inappropriately with my partner.
Sure, it looks the part... but I live in Portmarnock and I don't even consider this place as an option anymore.
30/07/2024: Excellent service, very tasty cocktails, reasonable prices for delicious food, large portions, quiet, cozy, calm and delicious)

Donnybrook Fair
Malahide
15/10/2025: Beautiful shop and cafe. Prices can be high but there is a nice range of quality food to choose from.
05/10/2025: We went into the Coffee shopp today and it was horrible. The place it was really dirty, coffee was burnt, pastry tasted like 4days old, soup was watery and flavourless while the soda bread had a chemical taste, making it inedible. However, got a refund for the soup.

O'Briens
Swords
03/06/2025: A woman behind counter serving customer whilst banging and slamming bins shut, and cursing under her breath. I was with my little girl and the two of us were so scared that it was our turn next that we turned on our heels. She then said ARE YOU OK... so I told her I definately was not ok with her cursing in front of my child. Totally unacceptable. Everyone has bad days at work but try to conceal it next time maybe.

Wrights of Howth
30/09/2025: A place where you can breathe in an Irish atmosphere and eat typical dishes, especially fish-based ones, really good. The oysters are excellent even if a little expensive. Fast service.
15/08/2025: Nice setting for a restaurant, particularly on a sunny day. We sat outside as the sun was out and it’s very pleasant. Whilst the staff are friendly they are not sharp and seem a bit forgetful with requests. Overall the food is good but as is the Irish way, they seem to cook the life out of everything. Most products come deep fried and have been cooked so much their flavour and texture is gone. Their produce and ingredients are fresh and of a high quality. Nice spot but don’t expect to be blown away by the food. Nice to sit back and sip on some wines. I washed it down with a bottle of Pinot Grigio which was great!
