The Chop House opened its doors in December 2009, offering a new food concept within a Dublin 4 pub! The focus is to produce high-quality dishes using the best of Irish produce. As the name suggests the main ingredient is Irish meat, the winner of which is the beef. However the menu also includes a variety of excellent fish dishes that are not to be missed. Kevin Arundel the Chef/Owner and his Head Chef Kevin Gallagher have honed their skills from Michelin star restaurants to suit the more relaxed environment in The Chop House. From Chophouse Classic Fish ‘n’ Chips to Pan Roasted Organic Salmon, there are some unmissable seafood options here.
