Vandeleur Walled Garden & Woodland Bistro is located in Kilrush and sited on the world-renowned Wild Atlantic Way. It is among the jewels in the crown of tourism in West Clare.
With funding received from the Department of Rural and Community Development in 2019 under the RRDF 1 funding measure, works are at an advanced stage which includes the extensive restoration and renovation of the old stable block on-site. The main works also include an interpretative museum and a new gardeners’ building, along with the development of new visitor experience design and approach for the complex.
The enabling works signal the start of significant investment in the visitor attraction. With this extensive renovation underway, a comprehensive visitor experience strategy is also underway for the site.
As part of the new visitor experience, Clare County Council are planning to redevelop a new restaurant / café for the Vandeleur Walled Garden Experience. We are inviting qualified applicants to operate the facility currently known as the Woodland Bistro.
This represents a brilliant opportunity to operate a Restaurant / Café at one of County Clare’s most beautiful botanical tributes to Ireland’s natural history.
The successful candidate will operate the entire catering operation at Vandeleur Walled Garden, Killimer Road, Kilrush, Co. Clare.
The new café is planned to open in Qtr. 1, 2024. The successful tender will be required to operate the existing Woodland Bistro from 01st May 2023.
