We ordered a bottle of French Merlot and it was quite good, soft and velvety. For appetizers, I had a goat cheese dish and my wife had the crab cakes. The crab cakes were tasty but lacking of crabs. For the main course I had the mackerel and my wife had the chicken. Both were solid, good dishes but did not have that special push to bring them up to a five. For desert, I had the chocolate cube and my wife had the creme brûlée. Both were excellent. One of the highlights of this dinner was the wait staff. They were truly outstanding and brought the experience up to a five. By the time we left, most of the tables were occupied. We are pleased that we ate here.

My husband got the shrimp cocktail salad...it came absolutely saturated in sauce. The lettuce was cheap iceberg along with tiny fishy shrimp. There was nothing impressive. When I asked the waitress if she recommended the pecan chicken or the pulled pork, her only response was "well you can have chicken any day". No recommendation regarding flavor/texture. Lastly, our water was frequently empty, silverware fell off while plates were being set down by staff, wait staff seemed uninterested and rude. Overall just an odd experience and we were hoping for so much more.

The mixed veg was a nice addition. As the veg was hot it made the meal more hearty than your usual salad. For breakfast I was feeling hungover so decided to go for their 'traditional' breakfast rather than one of the healthy protein filled options on the menu. The breakfast comes with homemade brown bread or toast and tea/coffee. The highlight was the tasty sausages! Friendly staff and a bright light filled room makes the Anvil a good choice if you are in the area.

Great location with outdoor seating over the beach (3.5/5 green stars)…read moreI just reviewed the Relish café at Southgate in Drogheda so I'm taking a trip down memory lane to review this Bettystown branch of Relish. I've been here twice over the last few years and both times it was an enjoyable experience. Coffee drinks were good (better than the Southgate branch) and my veggie dishes were very tasty too. Probably the best thing about this branch is the outdoor seating that looks out over the beach. A few years ago I had the veggie stack for lunch but I think that has been replaced by vegan taco. Nice to see a totally vegan option on the menu (and some vegetarian options too). I'm also giving Relish Bettystown 3.5/5 Green Stars for social and environmental impact. * They have a reasonable number of vegetarian/vegan items on the menu but could do with a few more. * Most of the meat dishes contain chicken, which is more sustainable than beef. * They use free-range eggs and organic bread for the French toast. * The website says that Relish uses "fresh and seasonal ingredients from local suppliers" but could be a bit more forthcoming with details. I wrote to them for more info but didn't hear back. For a few items, such as cheeses, they do name their sources. Would be nice to know where things like coffee beans come from. Interested in writing green star reviews? If so, contact me!

I visited this restaurant as a recommendation from a local while visiting Newry for meetings. I…read morereally wanted to try traditional Irish fare so I was a little disappointed when I saw nachos on the menu but I decided to give it a try anyways. They have a lot of different menu items so I decided to ask the server for local food items. She advised that the mussels, calamari, haddock and ribs were local so we opted for a large bowl of mussels and regular size plates of haddock and ribs. They had a lot of interesting choices from all around the world but I like to taste the local ingredients when in traveling. We got the mussels in the white wine cream sauce and I was very happy with that choice because they were so fresh and almost sweet. My dinner companion was not happy that this mussel was tiny. It didn't bother me. The Haddock boujons were perfectly cooked and crispy. They came on top of a little mashed potatoes with mushy peas. For the final plate we got the ribs. They were heavenly, I almost want to say the best I've ever had. The reason. Why is because the meat was tender like butter. The flavor was delicious but it wasn't heavy or heavily smoked like the libs in the USA. They were like air. Not sure if that makes sense but it's the best way I can describe it. For dessert we got the Bailey's cheesecake. It was so smooth that it was like a mousse. Soooo good. The house wine was an insanely good Sauvignon Blanc. The service was great. They were very attendant. The ambience is casual which I liked. The only negative mark o can give is that the beer on draught is German. I was dying for a pint if Irish beer and had to settle for a bottle. I would recommend this restaurant. Everything we had was good
