New Galway restaurant set to open its doors
New food and wine bar Fawn is the newest gastronomic venture from business duo Jason and Ervin, who plan to bring the small plates trend to Oranmore.
The restaurant's kitchen opening times will see doors close on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
'Dear Friends, we are super excited to announce that we will be opening our doors this evening at 18:00.
'We are so excited to welcome our first guests. Join us for dinner over the weekend!'
Owners shared a snapshot of their menu on social media, listing the small and big dishes that will be served at the chic new spot.
Amongst the small plate options are Toonsbridge burrata, seafood chowder and Doonbeg crab meat, while the big plates menu boasts pan fried hake and dry aged chicken.
The opening of the restaurant was announced earlier this month with owners promising a combination of eclectic dishes and unique wine choices.
The pair are opening the new restaurant on in the heart of the town's Main Street as they allowed customers a sneak peek of what to expect.
They said: 'We will be opening our doors very soon, and we would like to introduce to you Joe and Rosabelle Burke, and Fawn Wine Bar.
'We have designed our kitchen to be in the centre of the building, with open views of the cooking line from the two sides.

'Fawn Restaurant is on the right, and Fawn Wine Bar is on the left hand side of the ktchen.
'We're delighted to be partnering with Joe and Rosabelle Burke, whose roots run deep in this community.
'Joe grew up next door to what is now Fawn, in the heart of Oranmore. His father even put the roof on the very building that now houses our new restaurant and wine bar.
'Rosabelle, originally from Loughrea, went to school in Oranmore when Calasanctius was still a girls' boarding school. Somewhere along the way, she and Joe crossed paths, and the rest, as they say, is (a lot of) history.
'Rosabelle will be hosting your experience in the wine bar, where you will find a fun selection available by the glass and bottle from our cellar. We will have local cheese and charcuterie platters, small plates of local produce and nibbles to match our wines, all cooked by Jason, Sarah and the team. We do encourage sharing.
'We can't wait to open our doors and welcome you in soon!'
