Cathy had always loved the space here and felt it could make a fantastic showcase for local foods. Menus are well constructed and based on the team’s global dining experiences. At lunch there is a choice of fabulous fresh salads and sandwiches, plus hot dishes, family favourites, blackboard specials and sweet treats. Great value is to be had in all areas, with a lightning lunch selection for those in a hurry.

At dinner, the charcoal grill and wood fired oven are fired up for traditional style pizzas and other flavoursome delights. There’s also a selection of hearty meals plus a daily pie, savoury tart or salad. A cute menu for the little ones means kids under twelve can also enjoy smaller portions of their favourites.

Sunday roast is gaining iconic status among locals and visitors to the town, with Irish beef, chicken, or pork served with all the trimmings and billowing Yorkshire puddings.

In keeping with menu presentation, the wine list is easy to navigate and well thought out, with offerings by the glass, carafe, or bottle. Irish craft beers and cider and European beers extend the choice.

All this is enjoyed in an alternatively designed, industrial-style space with an open kitchen. The informal, relaxed feel will appeal to families as well as those wishing for a more intimate dining experience.

Take the Kitchen at Gorey home with you with their wonderful at home dining offering. All the favourite dishes from pizza to burgers and more are available on a full takeaway click and collect weekend menu.
