Voucher Banner

There are several dining options at BrookLodge & Macreddin Village including the renowned Strawberry Tree Restaurant for fine dining with organic and wild Irish produce, La Taverna Armento which offers authentic Italian dishes using produce sourced from the southern Italian village of Armento, casual pub dining in Actons Country Pub all-weather courtyard, and light bites in the relaxing Waterside Lounge.

 

Breakfast is also a gourmet experience with a selection of fresh juices and smoothies, fresh fruit and yoghurts, homemade pastries, Macreddin Bakery’s homemade organic bread and scones and organic granola and muesli. A hot breakfast menu features all the classics as well as a fully-loaded organic Irish breakfast and grilled wild fish of the moment.

 

If you just can’t get enough of the wonderful food and produce, you can take some home with you. The Macreddin Store Rooms are stocked with the best in organic and artisan produce, ingredients and foods from the kitchens and wines from the restaurants. Choose from fine wines, organic milled flour, exotic spices and delicious jams and chutneys.

With its dramatic dining room and menu totally devoted to organic ingredients, the Strawberry Tree Restaurant at BrookLodge & Macreddin Village is an experience not to be missed. The Strawberry Tree is the first certified organic restaurant in Ireland and there is nothing on the menu here that is not organic or wild, and that’s stated clearly. Inspections from the Organic Trust certifying body are tough and at random, so not even a hint of non-organic ingredients are allowed in the kitchens.

 

Choose between a 5-course dinner menu or a 9-course tasting menu and prepare yourself for a gourmet feast for the senses. Both menus showcase wild and organic foods that have been expertly prepared by The Strawberry Tree team and feature all kinds of delectables from the impressive walk-in wild foods pantry.

 

Be sure to look out for produce foraged and prepared in-house, as well as meats cured in the hotel’s own smokehouse and a fantastic selection of great Irish cheeses – try the Irish raw milk cheeses, they are complex with wonderful aromas.

 

It goes without saying that the wine selection to accompany your meal is also outstanding with some lovely organic wines on the menu but there are also plenty of homebrews and tipples too like the house grappa and a birch sap alcohol, which is a lot tastier than it sounds.

 

Groups can enjoy The Big Table Experience which provides a unique opportunity for The Strawberry Tree kitchen to prepare foods and a menu that cannot be served in a normal restaurant setting. Guest are seated at a single table that can stretch from 12 to 44 people. The food arrives all at the same time and is presented on platters in the centre of the table. Diners are encouraged to help serve the person on both sides of them and adds to the conviviality and atmosphere of the table. It really is a remarkable feast.
