About this menu

BEAR Ashbourne is a restaurant on St John St in Ashbourne, serving food that runs from early starts through to dessert. The menu opens with early start, breakfast and brunch, where you will come across Shakshuka and smoked salmon & avocado on toast. Further on are sandwiches and wraps, including the harissa chicken flatwrap, then big plates such as the house cheeseburger. Small plates and sides, like halloumi fries, sit alongside a dessert section that includes Biscoff cheesecake.

If you are up early, the early start and breakfast sections are there for the first meal of the day, while brunch suits a slightly later morning. Sandwiches and wraps make a simple order for a quick bite, and big plates are the choice for a fuller meal. To build a spread, add small plates or sides to a main. Anyone wanting to end on something sweet can turn to the desserts.
