Run by Dominic Doyle, Ballymaloe trained grandson of one of the founders of what is now Newbridge Silverware, the popular restaurant and foodhall at this unique visitor centre focuses on top quality ingredients - mainly Irish, local where possible - in a diverse range of offerings throughout the day, beginning with an excellent breakfast menu.
Vegan and gluten-free options are included and a well priced afternoon tea is served on elegant rose-patterned Newbridge porcelain - with perhaps the extra sparkle of prosecco.
The Newbridge Siverware Visitor Centre is a must-visit destination for anyone new to the area, whether to browse the extensive range of quality tableware and gifts, visit the fascinating Museum of Style Icons - or enjoy a meal in this bright and stylish café.
Together with his brother Conor, Dominic more recently opened the old-style Doyle’s Grocers in Ballymore Eustace, also inspired by their grandfather.
