The Michelin-starred restaurant at The Fitzwilliam welcomes acclaimed chef Adam Nevin as it prepares to unveil Glovers Alley 2.0
The management of Glovers Alley, the Michelin-starred restaurant at five-star The Fitzwilliam, is very pleased to welcome chef Adam Nevin to lead a brand new chapter at the restaurant.
“Adam is one of the best-regarded chefs on the island,” says Chief Executive of The Fitzwilliam Hospitality Group, Fergal O’Connell. “His cooking, his ethos and leadership style are exactly right for our reimagined Glovers Alley 2.0. We look forward to showcasing the new look restaurant, and Adam’s exciting new menus, at the end of the summer.”
Originally from Maynooth, Adam has worked in hospitality from a young age, starting as a kitchen porter at 15. After stints at Ballymaloe Cookery School and The Shelbourne, in 2017 Adam moved to the UK, first working under Alyn Williams at The Westbury in London, then joining Tom Kerridge’s team at the two-Michelin starred pub, The Hand and Flowers.
Adam joined The Grill at The Dorchester in 2019, and was promoted to Head Chef in November 2022. He moved home to Maynooth in 2023 to take up the role of Head Chef in The Morrison Room at Carton House, where the restaurant won its first Michelin star under his leadership in February 2025.
“The cooking is rooted in the chef’s strong classical technique,” said the Michelin Guide Great Britain & Ireland, describing Adam’s food, “but some wildcard flavour combinations work wonders thanks to their fine judgement.”
“I’m incredibly excited about this opportunity, about making something very special here, and working with Fergal and the team at Glovers Alley,” says Adam Nevin.”
“For the next few weeks I’ll be travelling for research, and I’ll have the head down, focusing on developing the menu and building my team ahead of our opening in September. The potential of the restaurant is huge, and our setting in the city is just fantastic.”
“I can’t wait to get started, to bring fresh energy, welcome our first guests, and to cook in the heart of Dublin.”
Glovers Alley will be opening on Wednesday, September 2nd. www.gloversalley.com
