    Ate here last night - was a short notice thing. Had planned to eat elsewhere, but were ahem,…read moreuninspired by the place we found ourselves in. One of the locals (there was 6 of us) suggested this place. Said it used to be called the Wine Bar, and everyone still calls it the wine bar, despite it being called Chez Sara. Called them and they said they'd take us at 9pm. Boy was I glad we moved here :-) It's a simple enough menu - lots of fish, some steak, and a few other things. I had mussels to start, and lemon sole as my main (being one of my favourites). Around the table people had pork belly, open vegetarian lasagne, chicken, and fish. Everyone was delighted with their food. It's modestly priced, really delicious food, with a basic, kinda French style to it. We polished off some house red and white (also great), and even went for desserts. I thought my tarte tatin was slightly below par versus the rest of the meal, but that's basically looking for something to be picky about :-) I would recommend this for anyone : tasty food with friendly staff in nice, simple surroundings. Excellent - I shall return.

    Why did I go 'Chez Sara'? Well it was a special occasion you see. I lost a bet, and my friend - who…read moreobviously won the bet - decided that I would take him to the restaurant. Guys these days... One star for the location. This restaurant is located in Malahide, in a little street just a few steps away from the sea. One star for the place. The restaurant has a very intimate feel about it. It is not very big, the table are made of old French boxes, walls are covered in famous vintage pictures, everything is simple and welcoming. One star for the food. I had fishcake as a starter, amazing and tasty. Then I had some cod with potatoes as a main, and that was equally beautifully cooked and tasty. And of course, the place being a wine bar I had some white wine, Picpoul. Just a glass, but what a glass ! One star for the waitressing. The waiting time was perfect, although I was starving ! The waitresses were very nice at all times. One star for the experience. The entire evening went really well overall. I will definitely go back and bring friends - even French friends ! I recommend 'Chez Sara' and give the restaurant a 5 star in a heartbeat. In the end my friend didn't remember the bet and invited me... Shhh I won't say if you don't ;) ***Update*** I came back to the place with the same place. We are losing 1 star here... The foie gras was presented on white bread. Shocking! It's no pâté! The hand cut fries were wedges. The textures wasn't right either. Otherwise the service was great and the overall experience very nice :)

    5 out of 5 due to several reasons…read more #1: Amazing employees. Maybe it's because its the countryside Irish but as soon you go in you are warmly greeted. You will notice they are all italian which gave me an even more confident my coffee would be amazing. #2: Vegan option: I'm not vegan but they have great vegan option for vegans. But the non-vegan options were delicious as well. The croissant I ordered was buttery, and flaky. The strawberry jam tastes like home made without any added sugar. #3: Affordability: Compared to Dublin, this place is a steal. Finally: A++ go get your coffee and food so you can go walk around Bray or even hike up that mountain.

    Cats! Books! Wine! Fresh, authentic Italian food! Owned and staffed by Italians!…read more This little gem, only a couple dozen metres from the Bray DART station, is quaint and cozy. It only holds about 15 people. But the food, coffee, and service is about as good as it gets. These people are passionate about what they do. I come specifically for the awesome vegan Caravaggio sandwich (on ciabatta). Everything is freshly made by them and unlike anything you will get anywhere else. Except maybe Italy! There are usually lots of Italian customers there, speaking Italian. This is a very good sign. The place is full of interesting old books people are free to browse. A quirk is an underlying 'cat' theme. Quotes and pictures about cats all over. Hand drawn images of cats by customers also adorn the walks, as to Italian record albums. I come way out of my way to come here regularly and will continue to as long as possible. Note: their fabulous bread selection comes fresh daily from the Firehouse bakery in Delgany.

    Love love love this place. Yelp is a little sporadic in Ireland so I cross referenced with Trip…read moreAdvisor. So glad we came here. It was a Sunday night and we didn't know what to expect. Was kinda empty when we arrived, but both guys working were super friendly and, after learning we were from the US, were quick to adapt the conversation. One has a good friend that moved to Indiana, the other was a huge fan of Andrew Luck (Our quarterback for the Colts). We talked beer, American sports, and they could not have been friendlier. After I finished my Guinness I was hankering for some whisky. One of the guys showed me the local stuff and I, being intrigued, ordered a shot. He came back and warned me it was 11 euros. Omg how nice was that? So I ordered another Guinness. My wife doesn't drink beer, so they made her a Sex on the Beach cocktail that she loved. Around 10 a two man band started playing music. They were great. One of them seemed to be playing percussion on a wood box. We had never seen anything like it. I had two other bars on the list to visit tonight so we left prematurely. The second stop absolutely sucked. The bartender had no personality and wouldn't even consider mixing a drink for my wife. I wish we had stayed at McPhails all night.

    You can't go to Drogheda and not visit McPhails. Now you may be confused by the fact that the…read moresignage still says Peter Matthews. Have no fear, you are in the right place. Very, very cozy pub in front and a larger bar area in back where live music is frequent. They have a good-sized beer garden with heater lamps as well. For the ladies, there is a hair straightener in the women's toilets that you can use for €2. I did not use it, but I have to say I haven't seen such amenities in a pub before. Definitely a place worth checking out.
