Everything tastes better outdoors.

If you’re planning a trip to the East Cork coast this week, you can pick up the perfect al fresco picnic to enjoy on the sand.

Aherne’s Seafood Restaurant and Townhouse on North Main Street in Youghal have been packing up boxes of locally-sourced goodies for day-trippers and staycationers to tuck into while they escape the city (or chill out in the back garden).

As they prepare to reopen the restaurant on July 1st, the Aherne’s team has put together a range of take-out options, including the Garden Picnic Basket, stuffed with goodies for two people, right down to the wine.

Inside you’ll find Aherne’s homemade chicken liver pâté, Annie’s homemade chutney, cucumber pickle, Knockanore vintage white cheddar cheese, homemade tomato and herb white bread or freshly basked brown bread, a bottle of Spanish Albariño and Joe’s Farm Crisps – delicious.

Priced at €40, it’s the ideal grab-and-go option for a garden reunion with a friend too.

To order call Aherne’s on 024 92424 after 11am.
