We had Sunday lunch for my son’s birthday. Each course was fantastic with everyone raving about their dish. My son is still talking about his starter of duck confit. And the beef was melt in the mouth gorgeous. My husband couldn’t eat dairy so the chef made a separate menu for him. The service was excellent , with every possible need met without delay.

Very good. Moved up a couple of notches in the past 2 years. Could be looking at a Michelin star soon. Please visit if you are in the Boyne Valley Meath / Louth area.

Amazing food, fabulous service and a wonderful all round experience. Buried deep in the heart of rural Meath this place is a hidden gem of the highest possible order. It’s high quality fine dining in a stunning location but great value for money. If you like special food then make the effort to go and find this place, it’s worth travelling for. Spend the little extra to get the chefs table experience, it’s worth it. You’ll see just how passionate and talented the team are at close quarters. Absolutely loved it!

What a dreadful Sunday lunch we had at this restaurant, the starter was good but the main course was just so bad, 3 of us had fillet of beef with yorkshire puds. The beef was just like a rasher of bacon and cold and the horshradish mash was just ok. The really sorry thing was the roast potatoes, I had great difficulty in cutting them and gave up in the end. They were so hard and cooked for hours. Nothing about this meal was "fresh". The roasties had been cooked for hours, Not an experience I would wish to repeat and at €44 for a 3 course Sunday Lunch utterly ridiculous

Dear Mary, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We sincerely regret to hear that your meal did not meet your expectations, particularly with the main course you described. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your starters. We apologize for any confusion; the beef served was striploin, not fillet. Regarding the roast potatoes, we acknowledge your disappointment. The potatoes should have been perfectly crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and it's clear we fell short in this aspect. Please accept our apologies for the substandard experience you had. We hope you'll give us another chance. We value your patronage and your feedback is crucial for our continuous improvement. Sincerely, Karel Geoghegan Restaurant Manager
