Food Producers

On the harbour-front in the food-obsessed town of Kinsale, is famous for what Cork people would call “Posh” Fish n’Chips.

Blairscove House is one of the jewels of wild West Cork, a beautifully restored Georgian country house with cobbled courtyard, accommodation and a restaurant housed inside a spacious, stone-built former barn. The food is famous, the setting is magical, with views out over majestic Dunmanus Bay.

Another local hero in the East Cork region famous for its rich farmland and food culture. The Granary's brunch menu is particularly tempting for vegetarians. Midleton is a half-hour drive from the city and also home to the famous Jameson Whiskey Distillery.

Artisan Cheese producer

Another local favourite, Cafe Velo sits right on the river at George’s Quay, chooses local produce where possible and serves up brunch favourites in a bright, simple space. A fine Sunday morning option in the city.

Jack Cuthbert's Bakery is a family business based in Midleton, Co. Cork with seven generations of experience in bread baking.

From farm to fork. From paddock to plate.

Heir Island is a tiny island in majestic Roaring Water Bay in West Cork, and home to The Island Cottage Restaurant. It is, as the name would suggest, a traditional farm cottage, home to a unique restaurant, created by John Desmond & Ellmary Fenton. For the past 25 years, they have accepted small numbers of bookings, the island can only be reached by small boat from a tiny nearby harbour and the menu is set, featuring only what they have harvested locally or sourced from local fishermen and farmers on the day. It is a true one-off experience. An unforgettable evening in a magical setting. Very West Cork. However, they can only accommodate small numbers so please book well in advance.

Handcooked vegetable crisps, grown and cooked on our farm in East Cork.

One of the pioneers of quality food in traditional pubs in West Cork, the Poachers is something of a regional legend.
