The menu will reflect Andy’s signature style of French-influenced elegance whilst developing what he describes as a natural, lighter element to the menu. Andy said, “Using Ireland’s most dedicated farmers and food producers, we want to create unique and exciting dishes. Each dish is designed to use techniques that bring out the best of each ingredient. We will be following my core philosophy of making everything in-house.”
Andy has designed three menus which include a Lunch menu, an A La Carte Dinner menu and a Tasting menu too which includes Andy’s signature inclusion of scallops.
There will be a fine selection wines on offer at Glovers Alley by Andy McFadden which will complement Andy's food, with an emphasis on small artisanal, organic and biodynamic producers as well as mature fine wines from around the world. Guests can treat themselves to a glass of wine paired to each of the selected dishes from the 'Classic', 'Reserve' or 'Grand Cru' selections or simply opt for a bottle from the extensive cellar.
Glovers Alley by Andy McFadden is situated at 128 St Stephen’s Green, Dublin 2 and has been designed by award-winning London based Project Orange, led by Christopher Ash. The design concept for the new restaurant reimagines Pullman Class dining through a contemporary lens. Guests can expect to dine in an intimate and elegant space that is evocative of the Streamline Moderne style of the 1930s.
