Got invited along to an occasion here last weekend and used said voucher. The menu really impressed me, seemed very authentic with many options not often seen at your usual run of the mill Italian. I went for the venison sausage with berry and red onion reduction for starter and wild boar bolognese with papardelle fresh egg pasta topped with parmesan cheese. Both were top notch and I'd recommend both for sure. We finished by sharing the homemade tiramisu and a chocolate cherry cake, both didn't last long, the tiramisu in particular was bloody fantastic. Nice as I've had :)

At one stage there were three in the village but they all closed their doors in recent years. They serve authentic Italian food, with an emphasis on freshly made items like pasta and tiramisu (one of the best I've had). The service is fantastic and there is value to be had in the Early bird or voucher offers to be found on the usual discount sites, though the ala carte menu is definitely on the pricier side. No better (or other!) place to look for a good feed of Italian fare in Swords; you'll get a warm welcome and be looked after very well if our experience was anything to go by!

Occupying a prime position directly beside St. Stephen's Green and just steps from the iconic The…read moreShelbourne Hotel, Peaches enjoys one of the most desirable restaurant locations in Dublin. The restaurant sits at the intersection of the Green, Grafton Street, and several of the city's busiest shopping and business districts, making it an easy stop whether you're sightseeing, shopping, or heading to a show. The exterior presents a polished, contemporary façade with golden, modern lettering and large floor-to-ceiling windows that take advantage of the surrounding streetscape and natural light. Inside, the space has been designed as a modern brasserie, with a brighter and more refined atmosphere than its former KC Peaches café incarnation. Soft lighting, contemporary white furnishings, and a clean aesthetic create an environment that feels equally suited to breakfast, brunch, lunch, or dinner service. Our group of ten made a reservation in advance, and I'm glad we did - at 11:30 on a Sunday morning, the restaurant was completely full, so I would say reservations are non-negotiable, especially for large parties on the weekend. The menu reads as a modern European brasserie, combining all-day café favorites with more substantial lunch and dinner offerings. Expect a mix of salads, sandwiches, brunch staples, pasta dishes, seafood, and grilled meats, alongside an extensive coffee and drinks selection. The breadth of the menu makes it suitable for everything from a quick breakfast near St. Stephen's Green to a leisurely evening meal. While the offerings are generally approachable and crowd-pleasing, there is enough variety to appeal to groups with differing tastes. Their drinks include various teas, coffees, lattes etc. - while I'd recommend going to a traditional cafe to sample real matcha, some of my friends really enjoyed their Chai Lattes/Dirty Chai Lattes (€4-6), as well as their other coffee drinks. We all ordered different entrees, and no one was disappointed in their dish - some standouts include their Shakshuka (€14.90), which comes with a large portion of grilled sourdough, a deeply-flavred tomato-and-pepper sauce, runny poached eggs, seasonal vegetables, and basily and feta, and their Full Irish (€15.90) with the same sourdough, flavorful bacon and sausages, black pudding (dont' be scared, it's an Irish breakfast classic, tomatoes, mushrooms, and eggs your way. I opted for the French Toast (€12.90), which was served with two slices of French toast, a rich whipped mascarpone, and a mixed berry compote, which was a perfect balance between sweetness and acidity. While I would have appreciated some additional fruit, I think the French Toast itself was a great combination of richness and crispy fried edges, with a perfectly custardy inside. Prices are moderate for such a central Dublin location, with most diners likely spending between €15-30 per person depending on whether they're stopping in for a casual daytime meal or a more substantial evening dinner (which we didn't get the chance to sample). Overall, Peaches is a great stop in a highly-frequented area for any meal of the day, and I'd love to return at some point to sample their dinner menu!

The chicken was well seasoned and the variety of vegetables all added a nice bite (particularly the pickled cucumbers, broccoli salad, and chilis). They're heavy-handed with the sauce and furikake seasoning, which was nice, but it did end up being a little salty. The servings are large and could definitely make two meals!

The staff were friendly and it was busy, but not too full. I came in a little after 130pm, and I think I'd been in a bit earlier there would have been longer lunch queues. If there is a queue it's worth the wait. I haven't had a Reuben sandwich probably since I left Canada in 2016 (Reuben's are American, but you can get them all over Canada too). Dark rye bread, corned beef, sauerkraut, swiss cheese, dill pickle, and Russian dressing. It was delicious. Pickles aren't a staple on Reuben sandwiches, but I love pickles and was happy with this addition. It adds a nice little tang, along with the dressing. The soup was warm and delicious with a bright tomato flavour. Soup changes daily. Portions were quite large. I just got the soup and sandwich and when I ordered I wondered if it would be enough. It was. My tummy was quite happy after lunch here. I'll be back for sure. Or maybe I'll just order in, because they have free delivery in D1.

The cafe has an indoor section and outdoor patio. The service was lovely and the owner was very friendly. The food was delightful and we were thinking this little community is blessed to have a place like this here. The menu is a cafe with a range of food from sandwiches to pizza to pasta. They have breakfast, deserts and drinks. We had photo error but actually had pasta and a superfood salad. The pasta was flavorful and used Spanish style chorizo. The superfood salad had yams, hummus, quinoa, various greens and I added chicken. It was bright and flavorful. The soup was a wonderful standout as was the treacle bread that came with it. It felt like home. The desert was a carrot cake with blueberries which was also remarkably light and the blueberry was a surprisingly beautiful addition. We can easily see why this place was a five!
