Rivesci win 2 awards at the Irish Restaurant Awards 2026 (Munster Region)

Firstly to be nominated in the Irish Restaurant Awards is such a proud moment for us because those nominations come directly from the public - it really means the world to us. We were also delighted to see some of our team get individual mentions too - a real sign of growth within our business. But then to go on and win 'Innovator of the Year' and 'Best Use in Social Media' in Tipperary really did blow our socks off!

It gives us immense pride to see some of our fellow food and drinks producers, Chef's, suppliers and more get their moment in the spotlight too. The room is always buzzing with energy & good spirits!

Huge thanks to RAI for all that they do in our industry, Diageo our category sponsor for Innovator of the Year and the Limerick Strand Hotel for hosting us!

Best wishes and continued success to all who were shortlisted and won on the night!
