Décor elements like vintage glassware, thistle arrangements, and balloons in green and gold elevate the atmosphere with a touch of grandeur. Culinary offerings pay homage to Irish comfort food with sophisticated takes on tradition Irish stew served in elegant portions, smoked salmon on brown bread, and mini shepherd’s pies, complemented by Irish whiskey cocktails, sparkling ciders, and rich cream-based desserts like cranachan and Baileys mousse.
