A long way off I know, but we're already thinking about what we'll be able to offer on our extremely popular "Game Feast" evening.
Pencil the date into your diaries and you Game fiends out there can review last year's menu to get a flavour of what we'll be offering this year, hopefully Justin's aim will be good in the run up to the event!

We'd like to say a huge thank you to all our customers, old and new, who make all that we do worthwhile. Likewise, our suppliers, without whose fabulous produce we would be unable to do what we do.
If you are thinking of escaping to the country for a couple of nights in a glorious Irish country house, Ballyvolane House now has rooms available at weekends having been fully booked pretty much every weekend since April. Please check-out Ballyvolane's latest special offers.
Looking forward to seeing all of you in beautiful Lismore as we head into last quarter of 2013.
Best regards
Justin, Richard, Robbie and the team.
