Gregory's Garden

Top choice in Dingle Peninsula


This cute cottage restaurant in the middle of Castlegregory village takes the claims of 'locally sourced produce' very seriously indeed, pairing the likes of Dingle-whiskey-cured salmon, Kerry lamb and Brandon Bay crab with vegetables, herbs and salad leaves plucked from the chef's very own kitchen garden. Early-bird menu offers three courses for €20 (pre-6.30pm). Booking essential.
