Avenue is located over two floors in the heart of Maynooth. Opened in December 2007 by Robert & Bronagh Kennedy, Avenue now boasts a band of loyal customers, gaining a reputation for excellence and winning countless awards. Avenue has long been recognized for quality, consistency and value, along with the buzz of a busy restaurant and the warmth of our friendly staff… with a “Céad míle fáilte” that comes from the heart. Our customers continue to enjoy our great Irish food and that’s because we have a local, natural and honest approach with an easy-going warm style that is both rooted in tradition and yet still modern. Whether it’s our famous chicken wings, chowder, burgers or our renowned Steaks and fish, Avenue always delivers.

We offer the complete dining experience and now serve brunch on Saturdays and Sundays from 11am. Avenue combines luxury, privacy & comfort. With our inspired chefs & our warm & welcoming staff we will turn your day or night into one you will always remember

    Thanks so much for making my husband's birthday for him, chicken wings, friends and family were high on the wish list and were delighted you were able to cater for the large group. Service was brilliant as was the food as always! Thanks again!

    Amazing food . Husband got the steak and I got the Sunday roast . Both were delicious. We got starters and desserts too . Can not recommend the food enough. Service was fast , we didn’t have to wait long between courses. The staff were very welcoming upon arrival . Only thing I would fault is one of the staff members who just kept leaning over to take away items off our table and not saying anything . Same when
