O'Briens Cashel Lodge

Restaurants nearby

• The Bishop's Buttery★ Michelin A vaulted ceiling and flagstone floors combine with sumptuous, colourful furnishings at this striking restaurant packed with both character and luxury. It helps, of course, that it’s located in the cellars of Cashel Palace, a magnificent Palladian manor house which was once home to the Archbishops of Cashel. The various sitting rooms are ideal for a pre-dinner drink, but it's hard to look past a pint of the black stuff in the intimate Guinness Bar. The cooking puts local suppliers to the fore, extracting superb natural flavours from the likes of beef fillet from the town butcher.585m
• Chez Hans Having first opened in 1968, there’s an impressive longevity to this restaurant situated in the shadow of the famous Rock of Cashel. Housed inside an imposing 19th-century Synod Hall, it’s a family-owned place run with genuine Irish hospitality by the friendly team, many of whom have been here for years. The menu is a roll-call of classical cooking and renowned Irish ingredients, such as sole meunière with Portmagee lobster; for dessert, you can’t beat old-school treats like the tapioca and vanilla pudding.581m
