Bovinity; no white tablecloths, no pretension, just fresh, locally sourced food and drinks.

We strive to break free from tradition and carve out a space where authenticity reigns and the experience is as real as the flavours on your plate. The menu includes a curated selection of cuts that speak for themselves. Irish, dry-aged beef, the kind of rich, indulgent flavours that demand attention. The cocktails are unique, modern, and made with natural ingredients . The wine list, carefully selected and chosen to compliment every moment.

This is the kind of place where everything is shared—from the steak to those dangerously addictive sides—because, let's face it, that’s what food is all about. Good company, compliments great food. And the vibe? Laid-back, gritty, with a soundtrack that’s as real as it gets. This is Irish hospitality at its finest—warm, buzzing, no-frills, and full of heart.

**Tables of 6+ will be offered a selection of two set menus. Email info@bovinity.ie for info**

                                                                We very much enjoyed our meal at Bovinity. Service was excellent, as was the food. We loved the idea of the sharing steaks to give you a chance to try a different cut, but they were quite large! Downsides: - Tables were quite close together and we were sat near the bar, toilet and prep kitchen entrances so there was lots of passing traffic. - Noise levels increased quite significantly over the course of the evening. Upsides: - Staff were friendly, welcoming, personable and knowledgeable - Food was superb - full of flavour. We went for the chef's cut purely because we weren't sure we'd be able to manage some of the others sizewise! - We didn't feel at all rushed so were able to enjoy our evening All in all, a great find. Definitely give it a go!
