The Glyde Inn, CO. Louth
The Glyde Inn is located in the coastal village of Annagassan in Co. Louth, where the River Glyde meets the sea. The Glyde Inn is a hidden Gem location with the benefit of the recently refurbished front-line outdoor dining terrace. The spectacular views are matched with amazing food.
The centrepiece of the food offering is the locally sourced fresh seafood landed on a daily basis at Annagassan Harbor from the Grade A waters of Dundalk Bay.
The Lifeboat Inn, Co. Cork
We love everything about this fabulous seafront gastropub located in Courtmacsherry which was recently awarded the Food Lovers Choice Award at this year’s Good Food Ireland Awards. One of the Lifeboat Inn’s most showstopping features is its unique outdoor dining space with outdoor tables and seating down to the water’s edge. Savour a tantalising seafood feast as you gaze out at the waters from where it came.
An exciting menu of dishes features the very best of local ingredients from the West Cork area. Fish and seafood are locally caught while local butchers supply a range of top-quality meat and poultry.
The Glandore Inn, Co. Cork
This quaint high-quality gastropub is located about 1 hour 15 min from Cork City Center where you will enjoy fabulous views across the Glandore Bay and the islands of Adam and Eve guarding the entrance to the bay and the harbour.
This gastro pub has an abundance of fresh fish available, including John Dory, Sole, Monkfish, Lobster, Mussels and Smoked Irish Salmon. There is no better way to enjoy a nice sunny day than treating yourself to delicious locally sourced food looking out at the bay before you.
Cashel House Hotel, co. Galway
As you drive through the gates to this lovely old country house hotel you know you have arrived somewhere special.
Peacefully set in some 50 acres of mature gardens and woodland walks overlooking the scenic Cashel Bay, this really is the very heart of Connemara. Dining at Cashel House Hotel takes place in the stunning conservatory which overlooks the vibrant gardens that encompass Cashel House.
At Cashel House, they take great inspiration from the local region when it comes to their ingredients. As you would expect, the menu is dotted with lovely fish and seafood dishes which include a selection of local oysters for starters, a hearty Smoked Haddock Seafood Chowder along with Cashel Bay Mackerel to name just a few.
