Dining at Gilbert & Wright Malahide

Here at Gilbert & Wright Malahide, we’ve created a space that reflects everything we love about this area—a place where great food, a warm atmosphere, and a genuine welcome all come together.

Whether you’re joining us after a day exploring or making us your destination for the evening, we’re here to make your visit one to remember. Malahide is best enjoyed at a relaxed pace, and we always recommend making a full day of it. Start with a walk by the sea or through Malahide Castle Park, take in the fresh air, and let that lead you naturally into lunch, drinks, and an easy evening ahead.

For the warmer months, our al fresco space is the perfect spot to sit back and soak up the atmosphere of the village. There’s nothing better than good food outdoors with a bit of sunshine. If you’re visiting on a cooler day, step inside and enjoy our recently refurbished interiors—comfortable, stylish, and ideal for settling in and staying a while.

Our menu has something for every kind of visit. If you’re calling in with friends, our charcuterie boards are perfect for sharing. Feeling hungry? Our range of burgers will definitely hit the spot. And if you haven’t tried them yet, our famous prawn tacos are always a favourite. Pair it all with something from our cocktail menu and you’re set.

We see it all here—girlie get-togethers over cocktails, people dropping in to watch the match, after-work wind downs, and weekend catch-ups that turn into long evenings. Whatever the occasion, there’s a place for it at Gilbert & Wright Malahide.

A few local tips from us:

  • Try to arrive a little earlier in the day, especially at weekends, to make the most of everything Malahide has to offer.
  • If the weather’s good, grab an outdoor table—it’s one of the best ways to enjoy the village atmosphere.
  • Pair your visit with a walk along the marina or a loop through the castle grounds—it really adds to the experience.
  • Planning a group visit? We’d recommend booking ahead so you can relax and enjoy your time with us.

If you’re planning a trip to Malahide—or simply looking for your next favourite spot—we’d love to welcome you in.
