Our Dinner Menu – From Irish Dry-Aged Burgers to Octopus and Oysters
Our dinner menu is extensive – for meat lovers and vegetarians. You’ll find the classics like Burgers and Fish & chips, but also unique dishes you won’t see just anywhere. Our charcoal-grilled octopus is a guest favourite, just like Dimi’s chicken souvlaki. The freshly hand-cut Irish steak tartare and slow-cooked Guinness beef stew are true Irish standouts.
Sunday Roast in Zwolle, every Sunday
On Sundays we go fully Irish during Sunday Sláinte, Cheers in Irish, with our Sunday Roast. Every week a different cut of meat from our chef, served the Irish way with roasted potatoes and veggies. As Irish as it gets!
Fancy being truly spoiled and craving comfort food after a good Saturday night or a long city walk in Zwolle? Then make sure to order dessert as well!
Creamy vanilla custard in a crunchy puff pastry case with red berries finishes it off perfectly. Comfort food to the max!
No Irish pub
We don’t serve your average pub food, and we’re not your average pub. In our Tavern, you’ll find yourself perched on a classic barstool at our traditional bar, where our famous cocktails are shaken, stirred, and built with care. That’s also where you’ll meet our whisky lovers. Curious to taste, or do words like peated, cask strength or mouthfeel get your attention? Then you’re in the right place. Our whisky buffs are happy to guide you.
In The Library, the big screens come on during major football and rugby matches, and the space transforms into a buzzing sports bar. Over 50 types of beer are on tap and served. Franky’s Corner is perfect for catching up – a bit more quiet, away from the music. And in The Barn, you’ll feel like you’ve stepped into an Irish country house, complete with a grand fireplace and comfy Chesterfields.
Veggie, Vegan & Fish
In the mood for something other than meat? We’ve got you covered. Vegetarians will love our Beyond Burger, or the Shiitake tartare with black garlic and smashed cucumber – earthy, fresh, and just a little different. Just like our veggie tempura: fresh vegetables in a crispy coating with a sesame dip.
Seafood fans can dig into our Sea bass with roasted cherry tomatoes and capers, or the Charcoal-grilled octopus. And of course, our classic Fish & chips!
Sharing Boards & All-Day Small Bites
There’s nothing better than starting with a drink and gradually moving into dinner – with snacks, of course. Check out our all-day small bites and famous borrelplanken. We’ll happily serve up a portion of veggie gyozas with sesame dip, or a tray of oysters on ice. Or keep it classic with good old Dutch bitterballen and cheese sticks.
Or go big with a full borrelplank – meat, veggie, or a tasty mix. We’ve got it all!
