AROMA
Arklow
01/10/2025: We stopped in for lunch here with lower expectations after striking out several times in Donegal Town. We arrived around 1:30pm to a full house except for one table for 2. Great atmosphere. Lovely welcome/greeting from busy but accommodating staff. 4 lunch specials were offered in addition to the menu in this smallish bistro! I ordered the carbonara pasta and asked for a side Caesar salad which was no problem even though not available on the menu as a side. Hubby ordered the special chicken curry. Both were delicious! I loved the pasta but was especially impressed with the flavours and fresh ingredients of the Caesar salad. All food is made fresh to order. My husband commented on how perfectly cooked (ie not overcooked) the vegetables in his curry were. Looking forward to breakfast there tomorrow 🤗
20/09/2025: Lovely coffee, gorgeous cake and the soup looked amazing.

Burrito
Arklow
17/11/2025: We thought the food was okay- carrots were dried out and not fresh, rice a bit hard as well, and takoyaki was only okay considering the price.
The ladies working were lovely and service overall was good- just the food a little disappointing. We came later in the day so perhaps you'll have a better experience if you come earlier.
11/11/2025: Love the food over there, fresh seafood wrapped in rice burrito is my favourite! And their karaage is good as well!!

Rico's Takeaway
Arklow
24/03/2026: Great fish and chips! Really friendly staff as well.
27/12/2025: I've been here before and it is okay - however they aren't open the hours on the door or online, and do not answer the phone, so our most recent trip was a waste of time.

Croghan Cafe & Coffee House
Arklow
12/09/2025: First time calling to this restaurant and I have to say I was really pleasantly surprised, the staff were really friendly and very good fun, put me in good humour. The coffee I had was possibly the best coffee I've ever had. The breakfast was amazing and kept me going for the day. If your in the area, give this place a try, you won't be disappointed
25/08/2025: Not a coffee house. Coffee made in machine taste like dish water €7 for two. Better off going to a petrol station

Eddie Rocket's
Arklow
20/10/2025: Got a late-night chicken burger just 5 minutes before closing, and the staff couldn’t have been more polite! The burger was absolutely delicious—juicy, flavorful, and not greasy at all. Definitely recommend this place!
07/09/2025: We went to Eddie Rockets for lunch. I love the food in Eddie Rockets. It's always fresh and tasty. I had kitchen Sink Nachos and a Chocolate malt Milkshake. My son had a Classic Burger and chips meal with a drink. He also got dessert which was a Donut N' Ice-Cream. The staff were friendly and helpful. The place was clean and so were the toilets. We will be back.

Burger Hill
Arklow
12/04/2026: Our family <3's Burger Hill for their burgers, chips, fish and kebabs. Everything is always great! Well recommended. Keep up the good work, BH!
09/01/2026: Burger Hill is a proper chipper. It's run by an Italian-Irish owner with decades of experience, and that shows. Nice place and quality food - chips are top notch!

Asian Harvest
Arklow
07/05/2026: The food was delicious. The staff was friendly and helpful. The prices are rather high for an Asian restaurant. Alcoholic drinks, in particular, are very expensive.
The ambiance is very bland, and Christmas lights as decoration in May are, frankly, out of place.
09/04/2026: Got a take away from here the chicken curry was un edible the curry was like powdery water and no flavour , egg fried rice bland .
Black pepper sauce didn’t taste anything like black pepper.
We ended up just putting it all in the bin waste of 30€

Eastern Promise
Arklow
26/03/2026: This is a takeaway only. Food is excellent and fairly priced.
25/01/2026: It's a shame that the place currently only does takeaways, and it has the potential to be a nice restaurant like it was years ago. I recommend the food.
