We had our engagement party at Fordes Courtyard on the 18th and couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
From the start, Chloe was great to deal with, always quick to reply and really helpful with any questions, which made the whole booking process very easy. On the day itself, everything ran smoothly. The space was ideal for what we needed and the staff were friendly, attentive and easy to deal with.
The food was a real highlight. There was plenty of it and it was genuinely delicious, loads of our guests have mentioned it since. Everyone had a great time and we were able to properly relax and enjoy it, which is exactly what you hope for with something like this.
We enjoyed it so much that my sister is now planning to have her 30th there as well.
Would happily recommend Fordes Courtyard for any event.

We were struggling to find somewhere for dinner after 8pm and stumbled upon Fordes Courtyard. We had a lovely person with great advice on food. I love a strong whisky/bourbon cocktail and the Napoli smoke might be my favourite cocktail of the summer. Great Napoli style pizza. The buffalo mozzarella is perfectly light and creamy. And the tiramisu at the end was delightful. Put Fordes on your list when in Limerick.

Fantastic food and service. The atmosphere is great here and the food even better.
All the pizzas and pasta our party had were really good - great ingredients and fresh, really well presented also.
There's a lovely Bar area also, great place to drink.

Popped in for pizza after a long drive bcs it was steps from our hotel - what a great surprise! Delicious pizza (we got 3 different types for our group of 4, and loved it all!). The guys took down near a whole one each and the ladies about a half each. Very nice atmosphere and attentive service. Would definitely come back when we need a break from pub food on our trip.

Went there for the first time yesterday, we were greeted with very friendly staff who were amazing the whole time we were there. The pizzas we got were great, felt pretty authentic, and were brought to our table in a very reasonable time. Decent drink selection aswell. The whole place felt very clean and well kept. Would definitely recommend for some Italian food and casual drinks.

Absolutely loved my experience here. Came for dinner with a friend. The host Ricardo gave great food recommendations. We both went for different types of the pasta ...so delicious! Lovely atmosphere too, nice music and lighting. The staff make delicious cocktails. Wonderful evening out.

Came with 3 others, got 4 pizzas. All the pizzas were great. Antipasto platter to start 10/10. Very good. Ricordis Boyen was our waiter, very friendly. He’s the man. 10/10

Great pizza, one of the bests I’ve eaten in Limerick. And the waiter Ricardo was amazing, very friendly and helpful.

A beautiful Italian meal was had here. Food was top notch. I went for an arrabiata as a starter, a honey-spiced pizza and a strawberry tiramisu served quickly, and all washed down with a lovely pint (or two!) of IPA.
It's a great place to go either solo, as I did this first time, or in a group, with little corners where you can be unnoticed, or big tables where groups can gather.
The specials menu changes seasonally too to reflect the time of year we are in.
Quick shout-out to Ricardo too. He made the experience all the more special with his friendly and chatty nature.
