From Ireland’s hospitality leaders, best hotels, fine dining, and seafood to casual dining favorites and the most pet-friendly destination, winners of Georgina Campbell Irish Food & Hospitality Awards 2023 have been announced.

Representing the four corners of Ireland, the winners of the 2023 Georgina Campbell Irish Food & Hospitality Awards were announced at an event hosted by Bord Bia at their new Global Hub, in Dublin on Tuesday, October 10.

Celebrating 25 years in their current incarnation, the independent Georgina Campbell Awards are Ireland’s longest-running food and hospitality awards. They recognize and honor Ireland’s standard-bearers in food and hospitality in Ireland with a particular focus, this year, on genuine hospitality, consistency, innovation, and good value. Also special tributes to some of the giants of Irish food and hospitality – and the brave newcomers who, against the odds, continue to delight with inspiring new businesses.
