Restaurants & Bars
The ALT restaurant focuses on local, seasonal produce and the kitchen is zero-waste - expect to see 'wonky' veg soup on the menu. There's an emphasis on Irish brands in the bar, from local craft betters to whiskeys and vodkas. The roasted beetroot risotto with pan-seared Wicklow wild mushrooms, candied beets, carrot ginger purée and baby carrots was delicious.
ALT: rustic restaurant and bar, casual dining. Open daily for buffet breakfast, all-day dining and drinks.
