HELLO: Fruition, IMMA, Dublin 8
Nestled underground beside the historic Cellars at IMMA, Fruition is considered more than a café – they pride themselves on being a meeting place where creativity, culture and community come together. While The Basement Café has been undergoing changes to welcome an exciting new chapter, Fruition’s food truck in the charming courtyard at Royal Hospital Kilmainham serves refreshing drinks and tasty treats to delight after your tour of the latest exhibition. With over 30 years of experience, enjoy fresh produce with Irish ingredients and even Puppucinos for your pooch.
GOODBYE, FOR NOW: Misunderstood Heron, Connemara, Co Galway
A unique outdoor eatery located along the Wild Atlantic Way at a viewpoint in Leenaun looking over Killary Fjord, for eight long years this award-winning food stop served seasonal produce and specialty coffee on the idyllic west coast of Ireland. Husband and wife team Kim and Reinaldo hope to host future pop-ups, while locals and loyal customers look to appeal the planning decision to close the busy location. We wish them well, keep an eye online for their next venture.
