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.

The food and service was great when serving the 1st & 2nd courses. When it came to the dessert they must have forgotten about us as we were left waiting for a menu after been asked if we would like to order dessert. In the end, we decided to forget about and left.

The perfect romantic dinner spot! The food was incredible I highly recommend the monkfish and venison, portions are on the smaller side so would definitely get a side. Service was really good thanks to the staff at the mill restaurant for making our valentines so special.
