A Dinner To Die For

A dark background with cut-out letters reading "a Dinner to Die for," surrounded by illustrations of a magnifying glass, old-fashioned key, pocket watch, and a hand holding a cocktail glass.

Eat Your Heart Out.

If you’re craving a date night that breaks away from the usual clichés, A Dinner To Die For delivers a deliciously dark alternative.

Begin the evening with a Bloody Mary reception, before exploring Malahide Castle’s historic rooms on a guided tour uncovering stories of thwarted love, broken hearts and romances that ended badly. These tales reveal that not all love stories had a happy ending behind castle walls.

The experience concludes in Nugent’s Hall, where guests will enjoy a hearty, indulgent dinner served in richly atmospheric surroundings – a feast where the secrets are as rich as the gravy.

Entertaining, immersive and full of character, this evening is perfect for those looking for something a little different in February.

A vintage-style menu with ornate corners, inspired by The Giving Tree, features themed dishes: beetroot with goat's cheese, parsnip and apple soup, slow-roasted rib of beef, and dark chocolate ganache tart with rhubarb compote.
