This central-Salthill bar and restaurant opened in the second week of
March 22025 - just in time for Paddy's Day.
They're in the purpose-built bar and kitchen, between Gourmet Tart and da
Roberta which was
most-recently Barnacles bar and restaurant. There's been some work on the fittings, removing features installed by the
last owner, the the overall bar is much the same.
Beacon aims to be a fresh, stylish take on the classic gastro pub, "blend[ing] modern elegance with old-world charm, offering a warm nod to
its stunning west coast surroundings."
The food menu, available from the 18th March, is described as
"Asian-inspired", with offerings including Cantonese Clay Pots (choose
from house-roasted duck, Chinese braised pork belly, Thai Bang Bang
chicken), Beacon House Seafood Plate (with oysters, smoked salmon, and
tiger prawns), Korean-style crispy chicken burger with kimchi, roast
Peking duck with plum sauce. And for the more traditional
Irish palate, braised lamb shank is also available.
