With clocks going forward last weekend, our Irish summertime has officially arrived! That extra hour of light in the evenings is already bringing renewed impetus to do something with the time. As the weather improves, we lose the urge to stay at home with the telly and the fire, yearning instead to be making the most of the long days. Our eating patterns also change. We want lighter, seasonal foods and naturally have an inclination to have a meal out during the week, instead of cooking at home. That’s probably because the longer daylight hours mean we can go out after work and still return home while there’s light left in the sky. As summer moves on, we feel increasing like enjoying dinner out before going home for the evening. This is where the gastropub comes into its own. It satisfies the need for casual wholesome food, served in a relaxed atmosphere.
