What to Expect

Dine in Complete Darkness with a Blindfold
Step into a world where your sense of sight is temporarily taken away. You’ll be dining in darkness, wearing a blindfold to fully immerse yourself in this sensory adventure. With no visual distractions, you’ll discover new dimensions of taste, smell, and texture.

Specially Curated 5-Course Tasting Menu

Our chefs have designed a surprise menu that emphasises fresh, local ingredients and innovative culinary techniques. Each course is crafted to be enjoyed with your senses fully engaged.

Educational and Fun Atmosphere

Throughout the evening, you'll not only savor delicious food but also gain insight into the daily experiences of those who are visually impaired. Our partners from the local charity will share stories and tips on how to navigate the world without sight, making this event both fun and educational.

Interactive Social Experience

Connect with fellow diners in a unique setting where conversations flow freely, unbound by visual impressions. It’s an opportunity to socialise, learn, and enjoy a night out like no other.

Support a Great Cause

For every guest attending this event, €5.00 will be donated directly to our partner charity, helping to fund essential services and support for the blind and visually impaired in the Mayo/Sligo area. Your participation makes a difference!
