Dining

Restaurant Patrick Guilbaud

Restaurant Patrick Guilbaud is arguably Ireland's top restaurant, established in 1981 and the holder of two Michelin stars as well as virtually all the top national and international awards. The bright, elegant restaurant, run by Stephane Robin, serves modern classic cuisine using only the finest and freshest Irish produce, with everything from breads to the petit fours made in-house. Chef Guillaume Lebrun's signature dishes include the Lobster Ravioli, Roast Challans Duck for two, and Assiette Gourmande au Chocolat. The wine list has an impressive depth and range and is sure to fit any wine lover's tastes. Impeccable service ensures a comfortable, enjoyable, and memorable experience.

The Cellar Restaurant

The Cellar Restaurant in The Merrion Hotel is yet another award-winning Dublin restaurant. This elegant bar is low-lit, lined with exposed brick and dark wood, and reflects a comfortable opulence. Assembling the finest local ingredients into creative, delectable dishes, the chefs serve to enhance the flavors of produce and provenance. Find a comfortable seat under the vaulted roof and enjoy the delicacies of the Cellar Restaurant.

The Cellar Bar

Hidden away in the original 18th-century wine vaults of the Main House, a warm welcome and a delicious drink awaits in the oak-lined Cellar Bar. A popular lunchtime and evening meeting place, the Cellar Bar offers a relaxing ambiance and an all-day gastro-pub menu. Along with a full bar service, a large list of wines are available by the glass. Great service and a fun atmosphere makes the Cellar Bar an ideal choice for lunch, dinner or a pint of Guinness with friends.

Afternoon Tea

Afternoon tea at the Merrion Hotel is far more special than a cup of black tea and toast. Treat yourself to luxury with a piece of 19th or 20th century art along
with a miniature sweet creation, depicting the work of J.B Yeats, William Scott, Louis Le Brocquy and others. The Merrion’s surrounding Drawing Rooms are a great place to relax with a selection of delectable treats, accompanied by teas and coffees selected by in-house tea masters and barista, while browsing through The Merrion art collection catalogue.
