Danni Barry

Danni Barry is the Executive Head Chef at Ballynahinch Castle’s Owenmore Restaurant in Connemara, Co. Galway, where the kitchen emphasizes seasonal West of Ireland produce, estate-grown ingredients, and a modern, light-touch style. Ballynahinch Castle’s official site identifies her as the chef leading Owenmore, and the property says the restaurant was named Ireland’s Fine Dining Hotel Restaurant of the Year in January 2024 under her leadership. Earlier coverage describes her as a Northern Ireland-born chef who previously worked at Simon Rogan’s L’Enclume, returned to Belfast to work with Michael Deane, and later became the opening head chef at Eipic, where she earned Michelin recognition.
