If ever you've strolled around St. Stephen's Green, you may well have passed by an ivy-covered townhouse, elegant but understated and not realised that behind that beautiful facade lies a secret spot for fine dining and elegant entertaining. In no. 41 St. Stephen's Green, right at the heart of Dublin's Georgian city centre, Residence & Restaurant FortyOne is a stunning gem of a venue, where you and your guests will be wined and dined to the highest of standards. Once you've sampled the delights (as we did at a recent Bridal Banter event) I can guarantee you'll be going back again and again... and again.

Beginning life as a private town house Residence has a variety of elegant private rooms, sumptuous fine dining menus and warm and attentive service. Originally an exclusive members club Residence & Restaurant FortyOne have now opened their doors for weddings - and boy are couples in for a treat. Residence strikes the balance between period grandeur and laid back luxury, offering a variety of options, all particularly suited to smaller, more intimate weddings.  So whether it's opulent and fun Piano Bar with its epic views across the treetops of the Green, or the classic elegance of Restaurant FortyOne, there's a space for every style of event.

At Residence food is the main focus with modern gourmet dining provided by award-winning Head Chef Graham Neville. A recent glowing review in the Irish Times echoes our sentiments exactly: fabulous food, exceptional service and a very warm welcome.  It's like having your own private town house with your own personal chef, what could be better than that?
