The Ocean Sands Hotel in the seaside town of Enniscrone, Co. Sligo, is proud to introduce Afternoon Tea by the Sea, presented by their new chef, award-winning Marcin Szczodrowski. From Monday 4th April 2022 it will be served from Monday to Friday in the Atlantic Room or Conservatory overlooking the magnificent beach.
Chef Marcin has designed a delicious menu based on afternoon tea favourites, all made by hand in house. It has seasonal variations but is always balanced and enticing. Each guest has their own beautifully presented traditional three-tiered stand with each tier featuring different delicacies. One tier is an enticing layer of hand cut sandwiches and bagels, cheese, smoked salmon and baby prawn cocktail. Another holds fresh scones with homemade preserves and softly whipped cream. The third, perhaps the star of the show, is an artistic display of sweet concoctions – petits fours pastries and cakes. Accompanied by endless pots of Bewley’s tea or coffee, this is a treat for the senses and the soul.
Reservations 48 hours in advance are essential as all elements of this appealing treat are freshly prepared. Bookings are taken on weekdays from 1-3pm and guests are welcome to relax over Afternoon Tea by the Sea as long as they wish. The cost is €24.95 per person or €29.95 with bubbly. A gluten free option is available.
Chef Marcin is a talented Polish-born chef well known from his years as head chef at Eala Bhán restaurant in Sligo town. He revels in working with the top-quality ingredients in the local area. His next venture will be a fine dining Nine Course Chef Signature Tasting Menu which will be launched early in the summer.
The Ocean Sands Hotel comprises 50 generous bedrooms including 20 family rooms and an impressive bridal suite complete with sea view balcony. Directly behind the hotel are 13 beautifully appointed and roomy apartments with easy beach access. It’s ideal for family holidays with a safe attractive playground beside outdoor tables. It’s pet friendly, allowing dogs in selected hotel rooms and apartments. The Ocean Sands is an acclaimed wedding venue which was recently elevated to four star status by Fáilte Ireland.
