Following a comprehensive public vote, The Kings Head secured its spot in the final, thanks to its commitment to top-tier, fresh ingredients. Renowned head chef Brendan Keane has crafted contemporary seafood dishes that have made the pub famous for its dedication to fresh, local seafood—so much so that its seafood bill consistently surpasses its meat costs year after year.

“The Kings Head served a terrific bowl of chowder, utilising the extra cuts from their prime fish plates, an impressive “whole catch” approach to cooking that is a shining example of sustainability. Every bite of this chowder was fresh and exciting, and the kitchen made superb use of Goatsbridge Trout to garnish the bowl, with some wonderful home-made brown bread. Part of the fabric of the city,” remarked the judging panel for the Search for the Best Chowder in Ireland.

This award is dedicated to Ali Jalilvand who was The Kings Head seafood supplier for 30 years.&nbsp;
"Ali was an absolute pleasure to deal with and was without doubt the best fresh fish supplier in the west of Ireland. When Ali arrived into the kitchen, he would give the place a lift with his broad smile, his stories and the craic. Ali will live long in our memories. May he Rest in Peace," said Brendan Keane Head Chef at The Kings Head.
