Wonderful, top class restaurant, with consistently good food. You really feel you're in for a treat when you enter this restaurant as you are immediately welcomed, taken to your table - a table beautifully laid with stiffly starched white table linen (which I just love!), gleaming cutlery and glasses. You do get a real sense of treating yourself with such comfy and welcoming surroundings, lovey comfy chairs and the brightness of the restaurant which is located mostly in a conservatory area. I have eaten at this restaurant many times over the past ten years or more but never reviewed it till now and I feel it is definitely warranted! The menu has changed somewhat over the years, but they still do an excellent early bird. A group of five friends and myself thoroughly enjoyed a long and leisurely lunch there on Friday last, but we were very surprised that apart from another table of two, we were the only patrons during the whole 3 hours we spent there! Having said that, the staff were very attentive but did not rush us in any way between curses, in fact the atmosphere and ambiance was extremely relaxing. There was no set lunch menu as such but there was a fairly good, if rather limited a la carte menu which was fairly priced I would say, with starters from €7.50 to €10 and mains from about €11.50 upwards. Our mains included chicken curry, various fish dishes and a vegetarian option. The desserts included a very humble apple pie, a rather good raspberry cheesecake and Eton mess - all courses were very ordinary dishes really, but beautifully served, freshly prepared and nicely presented. I understand they also provide accommodation and I feel an overnight stay would be very enjoyable in such a peaceful setting - yet only a very short distance from Lucan, Leixlip, Celbridge and of course the link to the M4 motorway. read more
