Hospitality Brochure
2014-2015
PUGIN HALL
Named after the architect, Augustus Welby Pugin, this is considered by many to be his finest hall. Built in the 1840’s the wide span and lancet windows give elegance to the room, where seminarians dine during their seven years of
formation in Maynooth College. The portraits feature some of the early professors of the College, which was founded in 1795. Three of them, Anglade, De La Hogue and Darré, were priests from the Sorbonne in Paris, who escaped from
the repression of the French Revolution and spent the rest of their lives in Maynooth.
Pugin Hall is the venue for major banquets and College celebrations, such as the annual Maynooth Union, Conferences
and Conferring Ceremonies.
Dear Client,
We are delighted to enclose the 2014/15 Hospitality Brochure for your perusal. Whilst compiling
this document we have reviewed what is currently offered onsite, and considered the
different demographics that may use the service as well as tiered the menu content so as to suit
all budgets and requirements.
With our wealth of experience managing client dining and hospitality services we have carefully
compiled a selection of menus which are designed to enhance the value of your time. Coupled with
a discreet service our aim is not to impede or distract from the progress of your meeting.
We are happy to discuss any special events or requirements you may have in mind even if they fall
outside the remit of this document. If you have any special requirements, or if you have a different
dish, or menu in mind, we would be delighted to discuss them with you.
