Ordering Strategy
Order the potato scallops to share immediately. Visit in the morning for the Full Irish or evening for the seasonal bistro menu, but absolutely save room for the Guinness cake.
What to order
Potato Scallops
These fried slices are served with 'dainty silver jugs of curry sauce' and are a menu staple that highlights the kitchen's 'fresh, hyper-seasonal and absolutely homemade' approach.
Full Irish Breakfast
A substantial meal praised for its authenticity, featuring 'fantastic fresh potato farls' and Irish breads described as 'rich with treacle and rye.'
Guinness Cake
Described as a 'majestic beauty' with a 'thick layer of cream cheese icing,' this 'fearsome and glistening lump' of cake is considered by critics to be 'as good as it gets.'
