Gourmet Food Parlour

A newer and smaller cousin of the popular Dun Laoghaire branch, the Gourmet Food Parlour offers good value and ingredients for a mostly lunch trade. Although lacking in character, the room is big and bright, with simple furniture, and chalkboards listing appetising sandwiches and daily specials.

Breakfast is served until midday, with interesting choices ranging from muesli to the traditional cooked breakfast, albeit with a twist.

Lunch, which can be eaten on the premises or for take away (a useful option for local businesses) offers choices between salads, gourmet sandwiches and more substantial dishes, with a daily special also available. A selection of various Antipasti is also offered, along a short but well chosen list of wines available by the glass.

All round, a useful place to know about.

Seats 46; open Mon-Sat 8am-5.30pm (from 10am Sat); Sun 12-6pm. MasterCard, Visa, Laser.

Directions:

North Street is at the Castle end of Swords Town.
