Campagne, Kilkenny City

 
Garrett Byrne returns to his native city of Kilkenny to open his own restaurant. Campagne, located at 5 Gashouse Lane, offers modern French-style cuisine for diners who want excellence at an affordable price. Previously head chef at one-star Michelin Chapter One Chapter One for more than five years, Garrett’s personal awards include Irish Chef of the Year and Best Dublin Chef in 2006. Before his tenure at Chapter One, Garrett worked in some of the best restaurants in Dublin and London including: Brunos, The Clarence Hotel, Quaglino’s and London’s one-star Michelin Orrery. The opening of Campagne is good news also for Kilkenny’s food producers. Garrett is passionate about supporting artisan food producers and sourcing quality ingredients and will actively seek out local food producers to work with. “Campagne will reflect not just my own style of cooking, but the quality of using good ingredients.”

This was the second time in a month at Campagne: fantastic food and great value (early bird menu). The service was brilliant, the hostess knows wines like few and made perfect recommendations. The venison (slow cooked for 23 hours!) can't be beaten and the whole experience is very high class, yet laid back. Staff were extremely pleasant even when we stayed on after the meal was finished to chat amongst ourselves, they continued to bring water to the table. We'll definitely return on a regular basis.

This is, hands down, the best restaurant I have been to in Ireland. The menu is simple, and the food is cooked absolutely perfectly. The service is the right mix of attentiveness without intrusion. The restaurant itself has terrific acoustics so that even if it is full, you wouldn't know that there was anyone else in the house. The prices are on the higher end, but are eminently reasonable considering the very high quality of the food. If you are in Kilkenny you MUST visit this establishment.

I was surprised at the location of this fantastic restaurant. It's on the bottom floor of a small block of apartments which are in dire need of a lick of paint. From the outside the whole area looks pretty run down and even the awnings of the restaurant are faded and drab. There's a serious lack of appeal on first impressions. However once inside, it's a different story altogether. The staff are friendly, the room is pleasant and airy. The tables are just a little closer than I'd like but not much different than every other restaurant in that respect. The early bird menu gives a surprisingly generous 5 choices for each course. All courses were excellent and of a very high standard. The only complaint I would have is that the pork belly was a little dry, but with the sauce it was still very tasty. I was surprised, given the standard of cooking and service this restaurant offers, that we had to pour own own wine throughout the meal, but overall excellent value. I would definitely return.
