Glovers Alley by Andy McFadden

Michelin Guide - UK & Ireland 2025

“Set in a prime spot on the second floor of The Fitzwilliam Hotel, overlooking St Stephen’s Green, is this chic, elegant restaurant named in honour of the city’s glove-makers, who once occupied the neighbouring alleyway.

The room has a largely contemporary feel but with subtle 1930s overtones, and pink and green hues and pretty flower arrangements bring a certain softness to it.

In contrast to the surroundings, Andy McFadden’s cooking is characterised by boldness – both in its flavours and textures – and his experience shines through in creative, modern dishes which are skilfully prepared and artfully presented. Dishes arrive at a smooth pace, brought to the table by a team who are detailed in their approach but refreshingly lacking in pomposity”
