We grow our own vegetables, salads, herbs and fruit in our greenhouse and gardens outside the restaurant which guests are welcome to explore. Our shellfish is caught around the coast of the island. We only serve wild Atlantic fish and homestead-reared meat. All of the ingredients we get from the island are prime ingredients. We place equal importance on the salads grown in our greenhouse as we do the lobster landed on the island pier.

The availability of quality produce, both wild and cultivated on the island is entirely dependent on weather, seasonality and practicality, however each year we aim to develop our knowledge and skills to cultivate, harvest and preserve more island food.

Because a visit to Inis Meáin should involve plenty of fresh air and island exploration, dinner is designed to suit appetites developed after a day spent in the elements.

Each course has just two elements, inspired by prime ingredients from our pure location. These are presented in a clean, light and fresh way to create a lasting, uncluttered sensation on the palate. It is an exercise in simplicity and restraint.

We call this way of dining Elemental Eating. This allows us to focus on prime ingredients from the island, including our own food growing and rearing.

To complete the dining experience, we have a carefully selected, and extensive wine and drinks collection, which continuously evolves to compliment the dishes we create.

Advance booking is essential. Dietary restrictions can be accommodated when mentioned on booking in advance. The four-course Island Dinner costs €73 per person, and is separate to the suite rates.
