A Taste of Bloom: With Taste and Neven Maguire Bring a New Culinary Experience to Ireland’s Favourite Festival

09.05.2025

Every summer, Bord Bia Bloom transforms Dublin’s Phoenix Park into a stunning celebration of gardens, food, and Irish creativity—and in 2025, With Taste is proud to unveil a brand-new experience that brings it all together in the most delicious way.

Introducing A Taste of Bloom, curated by Neven Maguire—a beautifully designed three-course dining experience that invites festival goers to pause, relax, and savour the very best of Irish food in the heart of Bloom.

A Dining Experience Like No Other

Set within the stylish Garden View Restaurant, overlooking the iconic Show Gardens, A Taste of Bloom offers a calm, elegant space to unwind and enjoy a three-course lunch designed by Neven Maguire in partnership with With Taste. It’s a moment of indulgence in the heart of the festival.

The menu will spotlight the finest Irish ingredients, thoughtfully chosen by Neven to celebrate provenance, seasonality, and quality. Each dish tells a story—of Irish producers, family-run farms, and generations of expertise—and many of the ingredients will be available to purchase just moments away in Bloom’s Food Village.

After your meal, we encourage you to explore the village, meet the producers, and discover the people behind the produce you’ve just enjoyed.
