[Aunch]

I am looking for a romantic restaurant in the region of Birr, Tullamore and Offaly

[manera85]

the Old Fort in Shannonbridge is nice,
Birr, the Stables, County Arms

The Acorn in tullamore is very good.

The acorn is lovely in tullamore but its not very secluded. Last time we ate there, we were lobbed right in the middle in everyones view. Food was gorgeous though.

I like the castle in tyrrellspass lately, and Jamies but the bridge house is without a doubt my favourite.

If you want to impress the person, then those other spots are ok but not special.

Try going slightly out of the way. try www.roundwoodhouse.com near Mountrath. Very special, very romantic IF you don't mind conversing with others, mostly tourists and old house lovers. Open fires, very personal and charming attention from Paddy & Hannah.

Also the Silver Room restaurant at Middleton Park House in Castletown Geoghegan. Ger Lynam runs a good show. www.mph.ie

For an afternoon highlight, book private High Tea or afternoon tea at emo Tearooms www.emotearooms.ie. Then a walk in the gardens and parklands and around the lake. all depends on the person you wish to impress. Only you will know what will make their day. If they've been before (good chance if its easy to get to), then you may be walking 'old tracks' !!!
