Sisters Margaret and Laura Bowe had a clear vision when they decided to turn the carriage house and gardener's store rooms of Marlfield House – a well-known country house hotel – into this accessible bistro-style restaurant. A sunny terrace is the ideal spot in summer, while the cocktail bar inside is a popular haunt before dinner. The menu takes on influences from around the globe, so don't be surprised to find an Irish version of a pulled pork bao bun or spiced lamb kofta. The seafood landed at Kilmore Quay nearby is worth looking out for.
WebsiteHaving worked in various hotels and restaurants around the world, Gorey native Andrew Duncan returned home to open this friendly restaurant situated in the busy town centre. Diners are spread across two rooms, both boasting a wonderfully cosy vibe and welcoming atmosphere. There’s a generosity to the cooking, both in portion size and price, with good produce from County Wexford underpinning the menu – desserts are a strength of the kitchen too.
