The best restaurants in Slane

08/09/2025: I was lucky to get a table as I hadn't booked. From an unassuming exterior, the space opens out into a high-ceilinged spacious dining room, with glass chandeliers and trailing ferns. The service is friendly, and the pizza was superb.

02/09/2025: Lovely thin crust pizza. The crust is really nice, the cheese and sauce were perfect. The crispy duck wings were really delicious as well.

13/09/2025: Lovely little cafe with fabulous food and atmosphere. Helpful and friendly staff. We will be back again for more scones 😋

24/08/2025: Great coffee and excellent selection of cakes to go with it. Plenty of seating available. Staff were friendly and helpful, and gave some good suggestions on local sites to see.

10/06/2025: Lovely welcome nice beer good tunes playing also serve breakfast

27/05/2025: Probably our favourite pub in Slane, with very friendly staff and tasty food during the day.

13/08/2025: A great Irish Pub. No food (you can buy it elsewhere and bring it in to eat), but a great atmosphere. Heavily populated by very friendly locals. We were there on a Wednesday, and treated to an evening of traditional Irish music with musicians coming and going all night. We made fast friends with Gavin and his wife who were celebrating his dad Sam's birthday. we could not have been welcomed more warmly or treated any better by all there.

07/08/2025: Small, typical village pub, family-friendly with music. Very good atmosphere.

12/09/2025: Great portions , An all round good chippa , worth a drop in

24/08/2025: I love the southern style chicken box with the oreo milkshake! This is one of my favourite fastfood places ever. Last time it was emptier, less saucy, etc and the service was slow with two staff members (but this is very very rare), but Gabriela (I might spell it wrong) made my order perfectly (super saucy and cheesy), was super nice and offered great fast service. :D

06/09/2025: I never review anything normally. I have to speak out about the atrocity of a "breakfast roll" and coffe I paid over 15 euro for. I left with the takeaway bag and when I was back on the road I opened it. Firstly, it was not even a roll. It was a horror show sandwich. Two slices of soft, floppy, thin, unbuttered sourdough flanked an absolute mess of barely cooked meat. The bottom layer was a thick battery of cut in half wet soggy flavourless sausages who's only well cooked part were the peeling casings, which slithered off, leaving behind joyness luke warm meat fingers. There were half inch thick puddings the size of the palm of your hand, only cooked on one side. Also deeply without taste. The gooey meat texture sticking to your mouth, offering only sadness. The unsalted egg was sad but it was cooked ok. I was hoping the rashers, of which there were too many, would offer a salty seasoned bite to the rest of the blank meat pudge, but they too were just warm wet plain and fatty. The combination of it all smelled faintly like a wet draining board. It was repulsive. I am not a picky eater. I love a cheap breakfast roll from a petrol station, a gourmet one from a specialist deli, and everything in between. This food was dirt. Also the coffee was completely stale and under extracted, tasted like the water ran straight past the puck. Probably for good reason. Service was confusing. I placed my order for a breakfast roll and was ignored completely from that point on by the person I ordered it from, who didn't ask about butter / sauces and who said yes, they do rolls (a lie). Someone else came and took my coffee order and payment. He was alright. Everyone was standing around confused as to where the q was, who was next, where to get service etc.

10/08/2025: I got salad but it was smothered in sauce and I couldn't taste the other ingredients as a result. There was very little on the plate once the goats cheese was set aside, a lot of lettuce but as it was so covered in sauce, it made it difficult to eat without slobbering yourself in the process. We also ordered focaccia which was very tasty and my son enjoyed it. The stirfry was nice as well. Soup was over peppered so it made it taste unpleasant for my daughter. I tried it and found the same. We ordered some sweet foods as well which were nice. The mixed berry bakewell was not the freshest. It was reheated which made the base pastry really hard and I felt it was harder to use utensils so I opted to just eat it by hand. Our tea and coffee were nice but they didnt bring the milk despite being asked for it. We had to go to the counter to ask for the additional food we ordered and the table wasn't cleared from our first course so we had to place the dishes to the center of the table to eat comfortably. We also had a baby with us and it was a bit crammed to navigate the buggy about. There was no child seats visible in the dining area and we weren't offered one. Overall I was disappointed as I thought this would have been a better experience and the price didn't reflect the products or service.

20/09/2025: Great place to stay lovely big rooms. Nice restaurant great staff. Main street is very busy with traffic.
