The Black Irish Bistro

Hello all, We’ve tried to post subtle updates and hope that you have noticed. Firstly, we’d like to thank our team of staff for their patience as per this delay. The reason for this delay is as per an aggressive last-minute and tremendous opportunity to be able to relocate the mothership facility. At the same time the proprietor is also having to relocate, so two moves with trying to re-open the Bistro with a new team can be a stressor lol. It’s 3 weeks late but we’re planni...ng on opening the weekend of July 7th with the intension (like last season) of remaining open later but that is also staff dependant (as we learned from last season lol). The good news is that the water levels are normal and the weather is forecasted to be a beautiful summer. In reality, the weather has been a only a bit better so we’re sure we’re not losing out too much like we did last June when we opened (and the cost of labour alone was unpleasant,...but that’s apart of business). Our biggest upset at the moment is not being able to provide for our team. But we are confident that with the forecasted weather, the normal water levels and having a good reputation that will be able to provide to make up for the delay. Again, thank you dear patrons and very special thank you to the team for your empathy and patience.

The Black Irish has been keeping us busy (and paying for us over the winter & spring season when Many other businesses in that area closed as well). Soft opening happening very soon. Still the finer dining yet traditional Irish and Spanish cuisine’s to be provided. Even hours of operation will reflect as such.

Hello valued Bistro patrons (Gananoque), It is with a heavy Irish heart we update you that we will not be celebrating St.Paddy at the Bistro this season. Primarily reason; We had hoped to have maintained last season’s staff or have met some new ones recently and unfortunately we’re still a little short to provide the service we expect for you. Besides, drunken shenanigans aren’t all we’re about. Thank you for your understanding and we’ll see you soon.

We’re getting ready to hire for our Gananoque location(s) Would like to extend the offer to the previous team & friends for a supervisory role as it looks like we’re expanding this year onto the water (and greens, TBA ). Let me know who’s interested.... Btw, our potential new location will be casual dining and with delivery to the immediate Lane, area and possibly very nearby Islands. So we’re also looking for responsible DRIVERS with a reliable vehicle and/or an individual with a boating license. Jet ski or small boat may be provided. DM us if interested.
