It’s not just the food that makes a restaurant and here at Core, Clare Smyth really focuses on the whole experience. From the moment you arrive her superb team will put you at ease with their warm welcome and natural pride in providing some of the smoothest, most attentive service around. The room is wonderfully elegant, and larger parties can book the long table down a couple of steps, right beside the kitchen.

Go for one of the tasting menus: ‘Core Classics’, which features dishes that Clare has continually refined over the years, or ‘Core Seasons’, which sees more contemporary constructions with a luxurious edge. The strength of the kitchen lies in its ability to create modern dishes that deliver superb flavours and textures but in a restrained, understated style. The terrific wine flights enhance an already outstanding experience.
