Good Food : Dining Out Sligo
Dinner:
Dinner is an elegant five course meal with a choice of Starter
and Main Course served at one sitting at around 8:15 each evening.
The menu changes daily and is dictated by the ripening of the
produce in our vegetable and fruit gardens and the recommendations
of our local butcher and fishmonger. The beauty of having a
limited choice menu is that in season, you can be assured that
most of the vegetables on your plate were still growing in the
ground that same morning, and that your meat and fish are fresh.
On a day when Venison is served, we can boast that the distance
from farm to plate for 75% of the ingredients is about 200 metres!
We would describe the food at Coopershill as high quality Irish
Country House cooking. Don’t expect food piled in precarious
pillars and as dazzling to the eye as the Peacocks in the grounds.
Rather you will find startling fresh flavours, generous portions
and the kind of simple elegance and style that never go out
of fashion. Examples of our menus can be found by clicking on

The Dining Room:
Guests are seated at individual antique tables set with Irish
crystal and family silver. The 14 foot high ceiling, 18th century
family portraits and antique furniture combined with the warmth
of a family home make for an altogether Grand setting.
“An extraordinary setting. Delightful
company. Delicious food.”
Eleanor & David Woods, Washington D.C
“The delightful cuisine alone is worth
the trip to Ireland.”
Michael Theisen, Washington
