Eat & Stay establishments are chosen for their commitment to showcasing local produce and Irish hospitality. Serious About Seafood

Alex Findlater & Company

Alex Findlater & Co. have partnered with the Savoy Group to launch an elegant Oyster and Seafood Restaurant, a gourmet Food Hall and a lavish Grill Room in Limerick’s city centre.
Grill Room: seats about 60, Tue-Sat 5pm-late. Set menus and à la carte. Children welcome. Wheelchair friendly toilets. Oyster & Seafood (seats 40) 12pm-late daily; food & wine hall 8am-5pm daily. Multi-storey carpark. MasterCard, Visa abbreviations

In a marriage made in hospitality heaven, premium goods provider Alex Findlater & Co. have joined forces with renowned hoteliers The Savoy Group to launch a one-of-a-kind enterprise in Limerick’s city centre, below the George Hotel.


Combining an elegant Oyster and Seafood Bar, a well-stocked gourmet Food Hall and a luxurious Grill Room, the two-storey space is unlike anything the city has seen before - and, while menus may be on the safe side, Group Executive Chef Graeme Campbell ensures that standards match the other restaurants under his remit, which includeHamptons Limerick and The Savoy Restaurant.


Many visitors come specially to browse the shelves of the food hall, taking full advantage of Findlaters’ 195 years of experience as the provider of premium provisions.  Of particular note are their locally-sourced, artisan foods, such as Glenstal butter, Rigney’s Farm granola and Pandora Bell sweets. In addition, there are shelves of fine imported produce, such as Italian pesto and Spanish couscous, as well as over 300 wines to choose from. It’s a veritable treasure trove of gourmet goodies. The food hall also offers casual bites (pizza to rotisserie chicken, sandwiches,fresh pastries) and regularly hosts pizza-making classes and wine-tasting events.


To the left lies the attractive Oyster and Seafood Bar, with its cheery bright blue decor, linen napkins and a colourful display of seafood, including Doon Castle oysters, West Clare crab claws, and Connemara smoked salmon.


Downstairs, the ambience suggests special occasion, and lucky diners will have the pleasure of sinking into velvet banquettes, with soft downlighters and luxurious fabrics combining to create a decadent atmosphere. And smartly dressed staff will offer a menu to match, featuring all the best of the seafood offered upstairs, alongside premium meats including rack of Connemara lamb, Black Angus fillet steak and crispy braised pork belly.


Each dish is simple and well-executed, with excellent fish and seafood cooking a highlight - pan-seared scallops with baby leeks and black pudding for example, or pan-fried black sole meuniere with blanched lemon, steamed potatoes and asparagus.




The seafood platter merits special mention - Doon Castle oysters, New Quay mussels, Connemara smoked salmon and an optional extra of West Clare lobster, it's a mighty dish and big enough to share so good value too.




Finish perhaps with Findlater’s Black Forest, with Amerena cherries, chocolate mousse, cream and layered sponge.

 


The extensive wine list includes 18 available by the glass (most about €7) and wines bought in the foodhall can be brought to the table.


Whether it’s a quick sandwich, a luscious seafood tower, or a perfectly grilled steak, Alex Findlaters & Co has just the spot to cater for your wishes. And afterwards a little gourmet grocery shopping should round off the experience very nicely.
