Classic Irish cuisine from chef Sean Smith in the Kildare countryside.

Sean’s mouth-watering new menu is as always sourced locally with some ingredients even grown on the very grounds of the Cliff at Lyons Estate. Food lovers will enjoy classics such as Roast Rib of Beef, Cherry Valley Duck Breast and Oven Baked Baby Turbot with sides of seasonal vegetables, mini Seafood platters and of course for something a bit sweet, Whiskey & Orange Ice Cream or Chocolate Fondant with Salted Caramel Ice Cream.

The Mill restaurant is the heart of Cliff at Lyons, with huge double-height ceilings, warm open fire and windows that open up to a terrace beside the mill race and waterfall. Here, you will find a relaxed style of dining where it is easy to enjoy a lunch or dinner with friends or family. The illuminated waterfall provides a unique back drop to this airy and spacious room.

    Fabulous ambiance. Especially the Christmas treatment. All to very high standard. Service very prompt - sometimes a bit too fast. Next time will ask for pause between courses. All in all a great place for a special occasion

    I was so disappointed having organised to meet up with two colleagues for a nice afternoon, one having travelled. The place was so cold and the staff were overpowering, rushing us out. I am not one to complain but the starters, which we all had the same, was completely overcooked with a burnt taste. The mains was so small, 9/10 chips. Sorry but I won’t be going back.

    We enjoyed a lovely evening with friends, celebrating our first wedding anniversary. The service was friendly and attentive. We enjoyed the banter with the restaurant team. The food was superb, a real treat and a bonus to say hi to the Chef as he moved between the tables to meet the diners. We certainly didn't need the salt or pepper we'd requested during the first course. We plan to do it all again next year. Thank you!!

    Food was great, stunning setting, but I can’t help but feel it felt like it was each staff members first day. Forgot to ask if we would like to order tea (at afternoon tea!!). When we did order tea eventually it then took about 15 minutes to arrive. Polite staff but just no idea what they are meant to be doing.
