Sunday lunch, explained by Fearghus.

Fearghus is giving a little insight on the Sunday lunch at The Merrion Inn, and why they’ve always been a bit special here.

Amazing food, a busy kitchen, families settling in, a few regular faces, and that lovely Sunday feeling where nobody is in a great hurry🍽️

Call in for dinner, let the team look after you, and make the end of the week a little easier.

Walk-ins are always welcome. Book your table now at https://themerrioninn.com/bookings/

Paul’s got a Cava worth talking about.

There’s still a bit of summer left, so Paul is giving us the run-through on a lovely Cava from the wine list. Crisp, lively, and very handy when you want something chilled without making a big speech about it🥂

It’s a good glass before dinner or when you’re settling in with a few starters. Make sure to enjoy this sparkle and this warmth outside!

Have you given this sparker a try yet?

Step away from the horse box for a minute!

You make sure the horse gets their feed, but what about you?

Call into The Merrion Inn for a proper homemade meal, a daily roast, a quiet table and a bit of time away from the yard routine. Leave the horse with someone sensible (or as sensible as you can find) and we’ll look after you.🐴

We’re close by on Merrion Road, with good food, cold drinks, and no hay on our sofas.

Walk-ins are always welcome!

Paul’s back with Vegan meals!

This time, he’s talking through some of the vegan options on the menu at The Merrion Inn. Everything from starters, to alternatives, swaps, mains, and desserts! Life's a charm at the Merrion Inn!

We know it matters to have choices when you’re eating out, so our team are always happy to chat through what’s available on the day.

Call in, take a look at the menu and let Paul point you in the right direction.

A new snout at the Inn🐾

We had a lovely new visitor call in to The Merrion Inn!

Have you had a chance to bring your furry friend and your family out for a bite yet? We absolutely love meeting new dogs! It's probably one of the best parts about working at The Merrion Inn!

Do you have a pup of your own? What breed is she/he and what breed?

Walk-ins, and well-behaved dogs, are always welcome. Book your table now at https://themerrioninn.com/bookings/

Reviews like this mean a lot.

We’re always grateful when customers take the time to share kind words after a visit.

Our gluten-free menu is something the team takes real pride in, and it’s lovely to hear people enjoying dishes like the beef cheek bourguignon and seafood skillet. Generous plates, proper flavour and a relaxed table for the family🍽️

The reality is that it's hard to find a hearty meal that is also gluten free. But were Coeliac certified and ready to change that!

What’s the gluten-free dish you’re always happy to find on a menu?
