The service was lovely. The waitstaff were welcoming and made us feel welcome. The food was perfect. I got the burger and chips. The burger was delicious! The beef quality overseas is sublime! The chips were massive and delicious! Perfectly crisp with a fluffy interior. I also got the pot roast and accompaniments. It was lovely! When in Ireland, you must have a Guinness, I'm sure it's illegal not to! I definitely recommend checking out a pub while in Dublin.

Great food with good service who made me feel well taken care of, and the atmosphere was so relaxed you knew everyone was enjoying their time there.

I'd rate it ahead…read moreof The Old Schoolhouse, The Cock, The Old Boro, and Empire and on a par with The Harp but behind The Well. Portion sizes are decent and the food is well-prepared. The menu goes through changes on a regular basis so old favourites like the ten euro steak deal, lasagne and southern fried chicken have been replaced with more exotic options like falafel and seafood tagliatelle but you'll still find safe bets like burgers and meat and two veg on the updated menu. I've never had a bad meal here, but I couldn't rave about it either. It does the job to be sure, but it always feels a bit weird eating here as it's more of a late night venue with a young clientele, so as an "owl fogey" it's a spot I tend to avoid after a certain hour so I feel these negative connotations may have coloured my dining experiences slightly!

Only knock was it was defeating on an early Saturday evening. Right its a pub not a church, understood. It was really loud and at times made it hard to enjoy the fantastic cut of meat sitting before me. Otherwise a 5 for me. Typical pub style find a seat, order at the bar give them your table number and they'll find you with your food. Also, somebody took a trip to Buffalo as they nailed the wings!

One of the hotels we stayed in Ireland (Swords)…read more The hotel is on top of a restaurant and pub. To check into the hotel, go to the bar! The hotel itself was beautiful and spacious. The crowd was a bit noisy and we could hear the pub in our room till they closed. Their were nice complementary hot chocolate and snacks in the room too. The room also had an electric sun roof and a beautiful shower and bathroom!

So I joined the line for the cavery queue and approximately 20 minutes later, I could barely move. The roast beef with lashings of mash, veg and gravey gets the two thumbs up from me :) The decor of the bar I also like, an old mans bar so I'll also definitely be back for a pint of Porter at some stage too!!

Went to Gilbert & Wright in Malahide and have to say I would not be recommending it ever again…read more Buying my first glass of wine I was stared at by a second bar girl who asked me was I going to pay for my wine. I had already paid the girl that had served me?! On my second glass of wine and needed the toilet, while leaving my glass with a little wine in it. On arriving back from toilet my wine was gone. Mentioning this to the lounge boy he politely informed me he would check what had happened. A few minutes later and I get a visit from what this pub calls a 'manager' (name witheld) and apart from him being enraged, he simply denied that my wine was ever taken, then proceeds to shout over me and act in a very confrontational manner, squaring up to me while roaring into my face. This 'manager' guy at Gilbert & Wrights would not even allow me to politely articulate my issue. His default mode was shouting full denial into my face. Not wanting to get barred from here, I felt I had no other option but to forget about my wine and go purchase another glass at the bar. This review is not about a wine glass, it's about Gilbert & Wright's response to my very polite comment about their removal of my drink. For to be treated in this manner by their raging 'manager' is inexcusable and I will not be returning here any time soon. Gilbert & Wright Malahide please get your act together and stop insulting your customers. AVOID Gilbert & Wright Malahide at all costs.. AVOID !
