The best restaurants in Meath

19/12/2025: What a lovely venue for a small gathering. We recently celebrated our staff Christmas party here, and it truly felt warm and welcoming. The restaurant's central location makes it convenient, and its beautiful decorations create a joyful atmosphere. The seating was comfortable and well-arranged, and the place was spotlessly clean. The food was of good quality, with a wide variety of delicious dishes to choose from. The portions were generous, satisfying everyone's appetite. The prices were reasonable, making it an accessible choice for our celebration. We highly recommend this place for any special occasion or to enjoy a pleasant meal.

09/11/2025: I love their satay chicken skewers and pad prik haeng with brown rice 🥰

09/11/2025: Great place great for watching sports

06/11/2025: Fantastic table service from Jake. He was very kind and friendly and was very chatty as well. He mentioned to me that he is only new. He had very good manners and he is a very good new hire that you picked up. An absolute credit to this pub. Keep up the good work Jake 👍🏻 I wrote this review a few months ago after incredible service from Jake however it has come to my attention that Jake has sadly been let go. Absolutely disappointing to hear as he was an absolute credit to this pub. We at Ratoath Inn miss him very much 😰#bringbackjake

24/10/2025: Lovely atmosphere and service, loved the açai bowl! my partner ordered the house club cheese, which was nice as well. a relish would have been nice with it too.

30/08/2025: Staff got order wrong 3/4 times until it was sent back. Owner is lovely but staff don’t seem to care about customers

19/10/2025: Very nice place , the staff was very helpful and friendly and the prices were very reasonable . Highly recommend chocolate cookies 🍪 I fell in love with them 🫠

24/08/2025: Regattos is a fantastic place to eat. You can pick anything from the menu, and it's always delicious.

29/12/2025: Nice food, collect rather than get delivered as can be very slow

25/12/2025: Koyla is clearly a popular spot. We faced a bit of waiting time due to rush, but staff were friendly and food was tasty. Happy with the experience and would recommend trying it.

04/01/2026: We didn't stay, but stopped in to have lunch. Which was lovely with very friendly efficient service. This visit we popped in for the carvery had the restaurant food the previously both were lovely.

01/01/2026: Xmas party and was fantastic 🎉🎉🎉

11/11/2025: Love Cafe Novello. Great coffee and the outdoor area is super cosy!

18/09/2025: Got my coffee here couple times, its awhile since I've being back and was shocked to hear 4.20 for flat white i walked out, shameful stuff considering they don't make decent coffee! (PROPER) Plenty places nearby barrista selling flat whites for decent price 3.50 max most are 3.30, also signs up looking for tips and machine automatically looks for tip when paying. The greed

27/07/2025: Food is very good great service

23/05/2025: Absolutely disgusting, chips blue moulded

22/07/2025: Good food, speedy service and a clean place. Welcoming staff and the milkshakes are amazing

30/04/2025: First time ordering. Food absolutely delicious 😋 All had different meals & each one gorgeous. Curry,Chilli & Garlic sauces all fab 👌 Delivery Driver top class. Thank you

14/11/2025: We regularly order from here, the wait times they give for collection are sometimes off but we don’t mind as the food is exceptional

24/10/2025: We order frequently from Taj Palace and the food is very testy. Various dishes are distinct and repeatable when you order them again. High prizes for the chef. Certainly our favorite Pakistani restaurant after long hiatus from trying any as we were disappointed in the past be other restaurants gradually lowering standards over time to the point there was no point visiting again. So why 4 starts for food you may ask. That is because on few occasions when ordering midweek takeaway (I am guessing their slow time) the chicken was not as fresh as we would like. Eatable but leaving a lot to be desired. Go on the weekend. Problem solved like with the touch of a magic wand :)

03/01/2026: The best butter chicken i've ever tasted. I will aways come back for more Don't miss it. Plus, you can enjoy the restaurant itself, with great vibe. Highly recommend it!

31/08/2025: Ordered for delivery and everything was incredibly sweet. It tasted like they dumped a ton of sugar into every dish, even after trying to “fix” the dishes with lemon juice and more spices it was better but still way sweeter compared to any Indian dishes I’ve had before.

18/11/2025: We had a delightful and refreshing lunch of freshly made sandwiches and tea. We also bought cakes and baked goods for our breakfast the next day. We had the privilege of meeting the wonderful couple who make the bakery magic happen. Cue the song “Baker-Man” by Laid Back.

04/11/2025: Sometimes you just need a moment to relax, so you go into a café looking to enjoy something tasty and a nice warm coffee in peace… That was our intention until the waitress started rushing us. Several times she came to clear the plates and told us to hurry up because there were more people waiting — when we had only been there, what, 15 minutes? And then we had to wait another half hour standing just to pay?

22/10/2025: Decent food decent service. Don't know what they are washing the floors with but feel like I'm going ice skating while in the seating area.

03/09/2025: I come here for breakfast after my weekly shopping 🛒 on Fridays. It's my treat to myself!

27/01/2026: Hmm, let's start with the positives, most (note I say most) of the staff were lovely. Very polite and helpful and the evening meal I had one night was very good, really enjoyed it. And that's where the positives end. The first room they gave me had a TV with no signal which couldnt be fixed and a dripping shower that would drive you crazy. The lady on reception did sort out another room for me which only had single beds, not a double as booked but it was fine, though the shower still dripped, maybe a feature of all the rooms. They could definitely do with an update, looking rather tired and the hotel wifi doesn't seem to work in the rooms! There was a private function downstairs on the first night I was there and it was loud. Very loud. A live band that went on til midnight. They would have known about this well in advance so maybe it would have been a good idea to let any guests who had booked know so they could decide if they wanted to change hotel. I know I certainly would have. I was staying for work but fortunately didn't have to get up too early the next morning. Good job really. On to breakfast, again the young lady working there was lovely but be warned, if you are hungry don't count on getting fed quickly. I ordered an orange juice, cup of tea and porridge. It took about 20mins to get the juice, a further 10mins for the tea and about another 20mins for the porridge!! Crazy. The ladies at the table next to me got sick of waiting and just left. And before you think they must have been busy, think again, when I arrived there were 3 tables occupied, 1 of which looked like they had already had their food, so definitely not run off their feet. When it eventually arrived it was ok, nothing special but I was offered honey by the young lady which was nice. When I went for breakfast the second morning it was the complete opposite. The lady working that morning was clearly inconvenienced by my presence and was just about civil, though the food was quicker. No honey this time 😢. Maybe you can either have friendly service or speedy service but not both!! Chances are I won't have to stay in that part of Ireland again, thank God, but if I do I think I'll travel further for alternative accommodation rather than stay here again.

03/01/2026: The hotel is incredible, but there were a few issues with our staying. The suite I booked on the website was called “Garden suite”, arriving to the hotel they said the suite was called “the bridal suite”, which lead my partner and I to an argument as they thought I was proposing, which supposed to be a good night out, starting off with an unpleasant surprise! The room was amazing, but the hot water and the heating system was not working and when we told reception, they said it would be sorted out in a few minutes, we had hot water for 10 minutes and that was all, also they provide a Bath and a shower, but just 2 towels, which is odd. Then, we decided to have dinner at the room, I went down to order and they delivered missing the dessert and the gravy, nothing was offered to apologized to us. The staff, at least, were friendly the whole time.

05/07/2025: Best Italian food I've had in Ireland, there can't be more than a few places on this level and half them are probably €150pp Michelin stars. You enjoy it more as food is perfectly home cooked with TLC and top ingredients and flavour and it's actually healthy Mediterranean food without cheap chemicals and oils etc typical of modern "food". Digests really well and you feel great even after having a big feed and dessert too. Server was really nice and the chips were perfectly crispy and made from a nice potato. Pizza was custom ordered and very very nice. One of the nicest pizzas I've had. The bourbon vanilla soft serve Italian ice cream and (I forgot the name of it but basically soft pastry wrapped desert with light whipped cream) was very very good I enjoyed the small homemade and very tasty desert more than a big bowl of cheap ice cream which is only chemicals frozen milk and sugar. Bit pricey but it's actually fair for the service and quality of food and ingredients. You just need to know what you're getting and that it is a premium dining experience. With soft drinks, 2 desert, chips and a 12 inch custom pizza between 2 people and a few euro tip to round it the meal came to 50 which was well worth it. Definitely will be back for special occasions.

06/06/2025: Tried Cesare’s for the first time tonight and was really impressed. The food was full of flavour and felt genuinely Italian. We had the pasta and Pizza and it was cooked perfectly. The staff were really friendly and made us feel welcome right away. Cosy atmosphere too, great spot for a relaxed meal out. Will definitely be back!
