Sustainable Restaurant

Part of living the Lagom lifestyle is living in harmony with your surroundings. This ethos plays into building a more sustainable restaurant. The Lagom restaurant team work towards sustainability by creating menus that change as the seasons do, using ingredients that are grown and produced locally, reflecting the terroir in our cooking. Our local producers and suppliers work with us to ensure produce is sustainable and delivered efficiently. Systems are in place in the kitchen to ensure minimal waste. Our energy partners supply 100% renewable electricity, we mainly use locally made crockery and Valentia slate and the restaurant interior has locally grown birch as a key reflection of our surroundings.

Living in harmony with your surroundings, feeding oneself from what is living in your surroundings, ‘not too little, not too much, just right’.
— Lagom ( pronounced ‘law-gum’ )
