Kerry Airport’s restaurant and bar set for a major makeover

- By SIMON BROUDER

THE Gateway Bar and Restaurant at Kerry Airport is to get a new look for the New Year.

Work on the four-week refurbishm­ent is set to start next Monday, January 12, during which time the queuing system and general ambience of the restaurant will be transforme­d.

A Coffee Dock facility within the Departures Area for outbound passengers to avail of tea, coffee, sandwiches and light snacks will be open during the improvemen­t works, while the bar and restaurant in the main airport concourse will be closed to facilitate the refurbishm­ent.

“The recent redevelopm­ent of the pre-boarding area in our departures lounge has been a great success and now it’s time for the bar and restaurant to follow suit. On completion of the work, we will be introducin­g a more efficient queuing system, incorporat­ing a new self-service area,” said Kerry Airport Financial Controller Basil Sheerin.

The restaurant will be fitted out with new catering equipment and an overall upgrade to lighting, furnishing­s, and décor.

The Board of Kerry Airport said they accept that there is never a good time to close an important facility like a restaurant and the management at the Airport are asking their customers to bear with them during this period.
