Domino's Pizza - Portlaoise


Portlaoise
27/12/2025: It was my first and last time with Domino's Portlaoise. Very unpleasant experience as I received overcooked and burned pizza. Couldn't expect that from this brand atleast !!
10/12/2025: Went into shop and had to wait 5 mins for someone to show at the counter. A ginger haired girl served me with not even a greeting. I asked for a 9 inch pepperoni pizza and payed 12 euro. Got my pizza and realized I was given a 11 inch. I was unhappy as I wasn’t hungry enough for a 11 inch and left overs were throw into bin. I then went back up to the counter to get a drink and was waiting another 5 mins with nobody to serve me. The staff here are always 10/10 but this is not the first time this one particular staff has been rude and looked like she doesn’t want to be there. I hope management brings this up Immediately.

Polly's

28/10/2025: Stopped here at the hotel today to be told no food in hotel only pollys at side of hotel, so we went down to it after using hotel toilets which were spotless clean. Went to order stuff from staff to be told that’s a Sunday menu, was looking for 2portions of fries and 1portion of tenders, so that couldn’t be made, it seemed staff just didn’t want to be their at all. Ordered a blt I slice of lettuce took up quarter of the slice of bread bacon heated like what you would get in Burger King, when I was bringing the toasted ham and cheese sandwich back as it was cold I got mayo for BLT as that had no taste at all, soup was nice and shop brought brown bread. The only nice part was where you could sit. Sorry I won’t be back. Or recommending this place to anyone as I had to stop somewhere before I got home for more food after spending €22 plus tip at till
13/08/2025: The seating area is lovely, but the toasted sandwiches were such a disappointment. 6.20 for a ham and cheese toastie that had meagre fillings in it and the cheese wasn’t even melted or hot. A lick of relish or a bit of onion wouldn’t have gone astray. It was the same story for the “Dubliner cheese” sandwich too. 28 euro for 2 sandwiches, a sausage roll, Coke Zero and a kids smoothie.

Papa John's


29/11/2025: Had an absolutely lovely gluten free chicken nugget meal! Food was all presented in seperate safe packaging and the bag it was in had a gluten free sticker which is great for preventing confusion! Good gluten free option, very impressed and satisfied with it. Chips were also very fresh and nice.
23/10/2025: Third time I've been to the drive thru and ended up with the wrong order..... Called the waiter to confirm what what is the bag and he just walked away....staffing should be looked at along with training....disappointed won't be returning

Golden Grill Mountmellick

04/12/2025: Positive was loads of chips. Service was decent. Negative chicken fillet burger was very thin, basically no sauce on it, and lettuce was no fresh on burger either. Have had food from here a couple of times since no owners took over. Have left unimpressed both times.
19/10/2025: The worker was so rude to me I asked to pay with a ten and take a euro out of the twenty and she said I'm done with this shit and was super rude to me and the calls where hrendous I called 20 times and nobody answered this place is really bad don't come here

Apache Pizza


Portlaoise
06/03/2026: Very poor service and food here..I regularly order pizza from Apache and to be honest the service and delivery is just getting worse. Lin who owns the place seems to get involved and is very ignorant when speaking in the phone. It's my second time ordering where items are missing and food is cold when it arrives. I have ordered here for the last few years but it is get worse the longer it goes on..someone who does the franchise for Apache should review Just to add to whom ever replies from Apache Ireland..ringing the restaurant to complain does nothing. They promise things to be fixed or free pizza next time but never do either
28/08/2025: It was good but has completely lost focus on the food that they sent out , the last three pizzas were starting to change my mind . The food is very salty leaving you with a incredible thrist the following morning ( yes the last three so it wasn't anything else that I consumed) the ingredients appear to have way cheaper and not fresh . The last pizza was a nightmare. My honest opinion go somewhere else . especially with response of customer services . See photo that's meant to be half and half ....the premises said sorry but we are busy can we do something for you tomorrow!!! So I get a response from Apache to reach out Management to which I did with the response from them above ...well that says it all and yes I have What's app prove of their response .

De-laois-ious


Portarlington
16/11/2025: Got food from this restaurant tonight and will never eat there again. Got chips and they were not fully cooked and were soggy. Also got battered sausages or what was supposed to be battered sausages and they were vile. It's not hard to cook chips or battered sausages.
14/11/2025: They've cancelled my order about 3 times, they're bad people, they don't even say hi friend. I ordered the kebab at 9 and they cancelled it.

Costa Coffee


Portarlington
24/12/2025: Not the best time to drink coffee
05/12/2025: Absolutely horrible burnt coffee, normally love costa coffee but this was undrinkable. Staff were very rude when I returned with 2 burnt coffees insisting it was brewed correctly but not one of them would brew another cup to taste it to confirm that it was burnt. Coffee lovers AVOID AVOID AVOID. Had only left the shop and meet 3 other people who were also after having a sit down coffee and said it was horrible but they didn't complain but won't go again.

Roma Take Away


Portarlington
01/01/2026: We usually order fish and chip from here, it used to be good but not anymore so we've decided to try their pizza. Two out of 3 pizzas we've ordered arrived wrong and when I called them telling that probably they sent us someone else's order an Italian guy told me that it is my fault because (V) Margherita pizza is pizza with pepperoni onions and pepers, and while I didn't know what to answer to this nonsense and I said I don't want any problems for anyone especially on the 1st of January, the guy just kept saying the same thing and that he can send only one 9" margherita pizza but " There is no chance I'll give you two free pizzas" he said. I didn't want to ruin my everything so whatever but won't be ordering from here for sure. P. S. My husband is an Italian pizza chef and I've been making pizzas for about 5 years here in Ireland and non of us has ever heard about a (V) Margherita with extra toppings , and it says online - Tomatoe sauce, Mozzarella cheese. And there was NO other Margherita pizza option It also didn't taste good The driver was the only good thing in today's experience:)
06/12/2025: I ordered 4 milkshakes for delivery today at a quarter to 7 they were banana milkshakes the kids was drinking them my oldest daughter actually got discusted the milkshakes tasted like sour milk I rang them to ask to speak to the manager and I told him check his milkshakes because they are sour he said no it’s fresh to be honest the smell of them turned my stomach I will never be ordering her again

Mizzoni


Portlaoise
07/03/2026: Ordered double pepperoni, got one and a half pieces of pepperoni per slice. Disgraceful. Will never order pizza from them again. And the driver didn't have change.
14/02/2026: Very disappointed!!!! Shame on you, second time you leave a child craving for pizza! 1. I ask for NO ONION on my kebarella pizza and it was FULL OF ONION. So my 10 year son cannot eat and it was for him . 2 . I've completed PAY BY CARD when deliver, and they force me to pay CASH, they didn't come with the cars machine. There are some months that they are making this type of mistakes . The second time my son is craving this pizza and he cannot eat because they bring it with onion, although I write witout onion. A couple of months ago there were some romanian boys there and they pay attention on everything ......but now ......shame !!!! This is the last time we will order from you, us and all our friends !!!!!

CaToCa Fine Food & Giftware


09/02/2026: Very unsatisfied with overall experience with staff and quality of food/drinks. At the time of last visit that was too much to me. Coffee served with dirty glasses. Tables not cleaned. And most important. Rudeness of 3 people behind the counter. I've been visiting this site from a while and also been regular customer. With few bad situations I hold my review for long time. But now it is good time to share my experience with all of you. You should look after your customers more than money. As no customer = no money. I would not check again but hope others will get better experience and satisfaction.
01/02/2026: I'm sorry but €10,80 for 2 espresso? What are they made of? I never spent so much on a coffee in my life, and it wasn't even great.

The Gandon Inn


13/01/2026: Restaurant is closed but the gas station shop have good food and an amazing staff, very helpful and friendly, recommended for a quick lunch or just a coffee.
18/10/2025: Although the hotel is closed, it provides its spotlessly clean toilets for a petrol station customers. It's nice to sit 😁 A big surprise, it deserves 5 stars. Many hotels could take an example of how to take care of them.
