We are proud to announce that Platito by Mangan has been awarded the McKenna’s Guide Best in Ireland 2026 plaque. It was a privilege to welcome John and Sally McKenna—two of the most respected and influential food writers in Ireland—to our establishment. To not only host them but to be recognised with one of their esteemed plaques is an honour we hold in the highest regard. The McKenna’s plaque stands as one of the most significant marks of excellence in Irish contemporary food and hospitality. This recognition is especially meaningful as John and Sally celebrate the 30th anniversary of the very first Best in Ireland plaque, marking three decades of championing the finest in Irish food and hospitality through their publications and guidance.

To be included on this distinguished list in our very first year of trading is both humbling and deeply

rewarding—a milestone that fills us with pride and gratitude.

We extend our sincere thanks to John and Sally McKenna for this honour, to our loyal customers for their continued support, and to the dedicated team at Platito by Mangan whose hard work and passion

made this achievement possible.
