Dining

Muckross Park Hotel & Spa has exceptional food offerings with several dining options available for you to savour. The award-winning Yew Tree Restaurant at Muckross Park Hotel is the hotel’s main fine dining restaurant.

 

The team at The Yew Tree pride themselves on showcasing the excellent produce from local farmers, fishermen and food producers. The strong connection between the hotel and its suppliers is a key to the success of this food offering. Menus are generally altered each season to reflect the availability of produce.

The Monk’s Lounge is the more casual dining space and the menu here is all about comfort food with an elegant flair.

 

Muckross Park Hotel & Spa has an exciting gastro pub dining option in the form of Major Colgan’s, where you can soak up the atmosphere of an authentic Irish pub experience.

Diners are treated to marvellous menus highlighting the best produce from the Wild Atlantic Way with a terrific selection of wines to go with each dish.

 

Expect to see Ring of Kerry venison and Kerry beef on the menu alongside a seasonal Atlantic seafood selection, country-style terrines and a wild game bird special. Diners certainly are spoiled for choice.

 

Each dish is seasoned to perfection and artfully constructed and accompanied by carefully selected components to enhance and compliment the flavours of the main ingredient. Sweet treats and an artisan cheese board for dessert round off a memorable meal. Chocolate lovers, your eyes and taste buds will light up with the signature chocolate tart and those who dig dairy will swoon over the artisan cheese board severed with grapes, biscuits, house preserves and, if we may be so bold to suggest, an old Tawny Port to finish.

 

Each dish on the menu has a carefully suggested wine pairing which provides you with a well-rounded dining experience that feels incredibly exclusive.
