With such an intimate, cosy and unique setting, Tom marries quality products, with an emphasis on local, and lovingly curates an unparalleled vinyl soundtrack for your Gallery experience, Ireland's hidden gem, when will you discover it?
Hen party, discerning stags or maybe a birthday celebration? Hire the whole venue and have your own personal DJ, The Gallery Westport is a great choice for those looking for something extra special.
Tom has set the benchmark by way of focusing exclusively focusing on organic, biodynamic / natural wines - the first in Ireland to do so. He also helps educate about the dangers of e.g. salmon, avocado, palm oil etc through his film club.
The Gallery is Ireland's first Natural wine bar and aims to balance business operation vs care for the planet. It is likely the first bar in Ireland to remove avocado from the menu. This 'Green Gold' is controlled by cartels, resulting in thousands of farmers being murdered, as well as alleged corporations taking over the indigenous water supplies, much like AI data centres are doing even on home shores.
The menu is consciously palm oil free, I don't use any salmon (especially farmed) due to heavy contamination & pollution risks, after all, it is our duty to minimise the impact on the earth. Please see here for further information and here, for information about some of the issues in the global food supply chain.
He uses 'Mother's Earth' plant based dishwashing sheets to ensure your dinner ware is free from harmful chemical residue, and sources refillable cleaning products from locally to further support local business.
