The Old Bank in Dungarvan

01/01/2026: I really like the rooms and the food in the restaurant is very good!

23/11/2025: A mixed platter. We stayed at The Tannery for two nights. We were attracted by the promise of excellent food, so booked in to eat on both evenings. Or at least we thought we had, as it soon became apparent that they had lost our dinner bookings. To the full credit of the staff they did rectify this quite quickly. The room was great but the sound proofing was shockingly poor. The couple next door would be embarrassed if they knew just how much we now know about them. On the first night the food was very good and our waitress was a gem. Not so on the second evening. We both reordered the crab brulee,as we had so enjoyed it the night before. Big mistake, it was curdled and lacking crab. The mains were an even bigger disappointment as they were totally lacking in flavour, to the point I began to question if I could have covid. When the young waiter came to clear the plates, asked if everything was OK, I said, actually, both mains were terribly bland, to which he looked at my empty plate and rolled his eyes. Not an acceptable response. We came for fine dining,this was mediocre comfort food and oh so disappointing. Has The Tannery become too complacent ? Needless to say, no one followed up on my comment to the young waiter, either that evening, or the next morning.
