The Old Spot

The Old Spot’s head chef, Fiachra Kenny, offers a finessed version of the classic roast, beautifully prepared using high-quality Irish ingredients. His fine-dining experience meets the rustic, homely atmosphere of The Old Spot to create a gastropub beloved by residents and recommended by the Michelin guide. The centrepiece of its Sunday roast is dry-aged beef from Dublin craft butchers Pat McLoughlin; sourced from South Leinster and slow roasted the day before, the quality meat is paired with roast potatoes dripping in duck fat, roasted carrots and red-wine jus for a reasonable €24 (£21.40).
