Europa
Monaghan
05/05/2026: Absolutely delicious! The fresh cod was the best I’ve in years, so fresh, flaky, and perfectly cooked. The onion rings were amazing too—crispy, golden, and full of flavour. Highly recommended
30/04/2026: If you’re in Monaghan and craving proper fish and chips, you won’t be disappointed. freshly battered fish and home made chips best I tasted for a long time. Portions are generous and service was Excellent.

Irish Dhaba
Monaghan
11/02/2026: Yesterday I ate a kebab from this place and unfortunately felt very unwell afterward. I experienced nausea throughout the day, and in the evening my temperature rose to 37.7°C. My heart rate also increased significantly (up to 130 bpm), and I had to call emergency services for advice. Thankfully, my condition stabilized later, but it was a very unpleasant experience. I hope the food quality and storage conditions will be carefully reviewed to prevent situations like this in the future.
03/01/2026: Owner got the order wrong, instead of apologising he was rude over the phone. Alot of previous orders ware not packed appropriately, ' all fries loose in the main bag '

Screaming Bean Café
Monaghan
26/08/2025: In for lunch today
The food was tasty
Good selection of teas, coffees, sandwiches etc , great big pot of tea for two.
the most striking thing about here is the service, very few places can say they have the quality of staff as this place has,owners are lucky to have the hard working ,Polite , attentive staff they have
Will def be back when I’m in the area again.
10/07/2025: Avoid this business at all cost. They are a disgrace, staff waiting months for wages that they are owed. Shocking treatment towards your staff. You can tell the owners never had to go without they simply don’t care. Food hygiene is also disgraceful kitchen is infested with ants. Pay your staff.

Monte Carlo Take Away
Monaghan
18/02/2026: The food was absolutely diabolical and very expensive. I got a chicken breast that looked like it was cooked two days previous and kept warm until I got it. I couldn't physically couldn't eat it, it was so hard and over cooked. We also got a tub of coleslaw for €4 that was very poor quality.
Unfortunately we didn't open the food until we got home and therefore couldn't return it.
Definitely will not be going back.
10/11/2025: Way overpriced, terrible burgers

Apache Pizza
Monaghan
01/04/2026: Ordered a pizza on just eat, put as delivered even though not received, called to chase up was told drive Ron the way they just ticked delivered on the app because they wanted to. Chased 15 mins later apparently they tried to contact multiple times but no calls received, said id check outside and call back then got blocked. Waited 2 hours for no food and they still tried to scam my money. Ridiculous!
23/03/2026: I just wanted to share my recent experience at Apache in Monaghan the staff member serving us was very friendly and pleasant, which we appreciated. However, unfortunately the quality of the ice cream was extremely disappointing.
All three of us felt unwell after eating just a few teaspoons, and we ended up having to throw it away. We also felt sick for the rest of the evening. Considering we paid €15, this was very frustrating and concerning.
It didn’t seem fresh, and I don’t think it’s fair to be selling stock that may be past its best to customers.
I hope you can look into this, as it was a really unpleasant experience and not what we expected.

Subway
Monaghan
15/04/2026: I've been to many Subway locations, but this one hits
differently. First off, the ingredients here actually look
vibrant and fresh, not like they've been sitting under heat
lamps for an eternity. The bread had that perfect, subtle
crunch on the outside while staying soft inside—a rarity
these days.
While the food was a solid 5/5, the vibe and service were
more of a functional 4. It’s efficient, sure, but lacks
that cozy "stay a while" energy. It's the ideal spot if
you're on a mission for a high-quality meal but maybe
less so for a relaxed sit-down date. That said, the
precision in how they built my sub was impressive—no
sauce leaking everywhere, just a perfectly engineered
sandwich. Definitely adding this to my "reliable lunch"
rotation.
03/04/2026: Love the veggie patty and fried potatoes
