THE TANNERY

Welcome to one of the most original and welcoming experiences in Ireland

Welcome to The Tannery Restaurant, one of Ireland’s longest established independently owned Irish restaurants. A beacon of hospitality by Paul and Máire Flynn since opening in Paul’s home town Dungarvan in 1997.

RESTAURANT

Fresh Waterford produce and a mouth watering focus on flavour

Since Paul and Máire Flynn opened The Tannery in 1997, it has become one of the most original and welcoming experiences in Irish food. What makes it special? There is Paul’s cooking, of course – his fresh Waterford produce, ever-changing menus and mouth-watering focus on flavour. There are cosy chats in the wine bar, warm and welcoming service from expert staff, a bright and buzzy atmosphere at the tables.

There is our unique location in the seaside town of Dungarvan, a stone’s throw from the Copper Coast and Comeragh Mountains.

Most of all, there is the Tannery’s knack for serving up that most important of ingredients: A Great Time.
