Our Story

Small room,
big flavours.

Hawthorn opened on Merrion Row with a simple idea: that twenty people could sit down together and eat food that actually means something — sourced locally, cooked carefully, and served without fuss.

Every dish changes with the season. We work with Irish farmers, fishermen, and cheesemakers to bring you the very best the island has to offer, whether you're dining in or taking away.
