The best restaurants in Maynooth

08/03/2025: Been in a few different times, staff are always so polite and helpful. Pastries and coffees are delicious.

27/02/2025: The coffee and the carrot cake was fab. From talking to the owners they plan on making a drive through soon, hopefully in the couple of weeks. Best coffee in Manooth…believe us we’ve tried a few 😊 Baby friendly. Plenty of buggy parking, which is something we always find hard to get. They plan on setting up a similar thing to the play house cafe, where they’ll have baby, kid friendly toys etc. definitely worth a visit 🥰 DOG Friendly 🙌🏼

01/03/2025: Packed on a Saturday night. But staff delivered great service and high quality plates. Fun evening. Thanks!

22/02/2025: It's one of the best restaurants around Dublin!

02/03/2025: Visited the Zambrero, I had a fantastic experience with Grace today when she helped me with my takeaway food order. She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made sure my order was just right. Her customer service skills were top-notch, and she made the entire process smooth and easy. I really appreciate her professionalism and warm attitude. Highly recommend!"

13/02/2025: Burrito was class, staff were lovely, atmosphere was ecstatic

10/03/2025: Great pub/Restaurant. We were in the bar on a Thursday night. We enjoyed a great meal. Very good service, great food. There is a trad music session there every Thurday night. Great music & musicians. They were a lovely bunch of guys and really add to the atmosphere of the pub!!! Will definitely be back on a Thursday night to hear the music and have a drink!

23/12/2024: Great pub, It's 5 years since I last posted, but this place has gotten even better. The staff are sublime at every level, the food too, simple proper food. Indeed last week I was with my two golf buddies and they had the bacon and cabbage with all trimmings.......fantastic place. And dancing in the bar too on a Sunday....be prepared for good food, great staff and dancing 🕺 😋

17/03/2025: Small place but the pizza is a bomb of Italian delicacies. Really good Lorenzo who knows how to entertain as well as doing his job very well. Excellent pizzas. You'll have to try😊🍛🍕

06/03/2025: Great food and people, but it could be a bit cleaner.

13/03/2025: Great burgers and churros one of the only places in Ireland I've seen that does them as good as continental Europe too. Strawberry milkshakes a must as well. Great place to sit in or order on just eat and ready after you finish lecture

12/03/2025: Giving 5 star review all round due to the food and the lovely gentleman we met at the entrance, the smash burger and honey chili chicken burger along with the garlic butter cheese fries were exactly what we had hoped for. The burger had the right amount of char with great quality beef and good quality toppings. The chicken burger was spicy it was sweet and was just an all round good burger and the fries were lovely and crisp on the outside with a fluffy interior.... the on bad point was the rude ignorant lady at the till. She was young (non irish) which isint the issue I just don't know what nationality she was. Very ignorant and unhelpfull and was looking everyone who entered the establisment up and down with a disgusted look on her face. BUT I'm not going to let her ruin this review but I hope the owner sees this and reprimands her as its a sin to allow someone with this attitude bring down the intire establishment

03/03/2025: A very busy bar, with restaurant attached, and a Chinese restaurant upstairs i think. Service was good, and menu has Asian options.

28/02/2025: Absolutely fantastic. We had a very comfortable and relaxing stay. Excellent food, cocktails and service. Would definitely recommend.

19/03/2025: Have been to the Avenue a number of times for occasions. The food here is lovely and the staff very friendly. Would recommend.

15/03/2025: Went out for a work event at the Avenue and was really impressed, I live in Dublin and have been to many restaurants, this was by far the best one I have been to in quite a while. Food was amazing, started with the prawns and had the beef for main, followed by the brownie for desert. The zero Guinness wasnt bad either The staff were brilliant and catered to our every need. Well done the Avenue,

28/03/2025: Good place for a coffee or lunch

22/03/2025: Sásta is always a favorite. I love the vibrant, hip atmosphere with its abundance of plants and rustic furniture. The food is consistently great, especially the burger on the menu. At €18, it’s on the pricier side, but definitely worth it. They elevate the classic burger with a garlic mayo and onion chutney, and the chips are perfectly crispy. It’s a generous portion and full of flavor. I’ve never been to a place that offers such a wide variety of coffee options. Each time I visit, I try something new. Today, my mother had the Ube latté, which was both visually appealing and delicious. If I had to mention one downside, it would be the noise level, which can get quite loud—though it’s understandable given that it was lunchtime on a Saturday. I also love the sweet touch of the kids' pictures in the waiting area.

24/03/2025: Their crab soup just brings you back from the dead. 😁

23/03/2025: The food in Orient is absolutely delicious, everyone I've been there with has loved it. The service is always top notch. It's priced slightly lower than average and is definitely better than average. It's spotlessly clean everywhere. Highly recommended.

17/09/2024: All I can say is Heavenly! We ordered a carrot cake from L'Art du Chocolate for our friend's birthday and it was truly the most divinely gorgeous carrot cake any of us had ever had!! From the smooth chocolate mixed into the icing poured over the delectable cake filling topped with beautiful writing was the best birthday present we could have given her!! Just incredible! Thank you❤️

30/07/2024: Best latte i have had in ireland and I'm Aussie

18/03/2025: Nice staff, good food worth a visit

09/03/2025: Great night with friends from far away.

02/03/2025: I don't recommend drinking here, they are too strict unlike the "roost" or "O'Niels", they didn't let me in after I left to get my insulin from the hotel and called me "shady". I recommend going to the Newtown Pub as it is friendlier and more "Irish cultured" while Brady's clock house is more of a "money catcher". I really hope they change for the better, but I'm never going back! I don't recommend drinking here, they are too strict unlike the "roost" or "O'Niels", they wouldn't let me in after I went to get my insulin from the hotel and they called me "dodgy". I recommend going into the Newtown Pub as it is more friendly and "Irish cultured" while Brady's Clock House is more of a "money grabber" and "dip in n' out". I really hope they change for the better but I will never go back!

24/02/2025: Made 4 visits to Brady's Clockhoue in Fed staff are great very helpful food was great well recommended if you are in the area

26/02/2025: Typical thai food. Green curry was good, it will be great if more vegetables. chicken satay was below average as I dont taste anything in chicken, it was deep fried and cover with peanut sauce. Overall isnt that bad to take out from 5 stars

25/02/2025: Consistently really good. What more can you ask for.

20/02/2025: Great food & kind service, would be 5 Star except for the plant milk tariff… even Starbucks don’t do this.

17/01/2025: Fantastic food. Would recommend 10/10!
