While keeping some of the favourites, Raoul continues to innovate with additional new dishes, reflecting influences from the annual three months of travelling.
Goodbye to Hibernia Restaurant – and Welcome to Maison Hibernia
A new chapter, in the same spirit.
After 38 extraordinary years, Hibernia Restaurant closed its doors on 18 May 2025. We are deeply grateful to everyone who shared a meal with us, celebrated life’s moments here, and became part of the Hibernia story.
Today, we’re proud to introduce Maison Hibernia — a new chapter in the same spirit of thoughtful hospitality. nestled in the same serene location, Maison Hibernia offers boutique accommodation designed with the same care, warmth, and timeless charm that defined the restaurant.
Maison Hibernia joins Hibernia Villa, our existing rental property just a short walk away, as part of a growing retreat for those seeking rest, beauty, and connection in Anguilla.
We invite you to come and stay — surrounded by nature, art, and the quiet magic of this special place.
Maison Hibernia
Opening November 2025
For the past 36 years, the food & atmosphere at Hibernia Restaurant & Art Gallery has reflected our experiences & annual Asian travels. Our location in Island Harbour means we have access to the best & freshest local sea food. "My cuisine has been described by some as eclectic but I would prefer the term personal. As a French chef, my respect for the French culinary values never fades and I enjoy blending them with my latest discoveries."
This year’s annual travels included one month on the island of Hokkaido in Japan. It was a first rate opportunity to be inspired by Japan's amazing and unique food, products and culture. We filled our suitcases with plenty of unusual foods to use in this year's new menu additions. We continue to offer unique French wines and Mary Pat is always delighted to share her knowledge to help you make the perfect choice.
HIBERNIA RESTAURANT & ART GALLERY opened in 1987 when Mary-Pat & Raoul moved to Anguilla. "Since the purchase of the property in 2013, we have made extensive structural changes. The tables now border a Balinese-style water pool, nestled in a stone sculpture garden filled with dessert roses. We will always try to treat our guests to a most memorable meal. We can proudly say that everything served to you is hand-made in our kitchen. During your visit, enjoy wandering through the art gallery to browse our latest collection of paintings, hand-made silver jewelry & antiques".
If you are looking for a special place to stay, Our Villa Hibernia is for rent. For more information please visit:
The art gallery collection reflects our personal taste and is really anything that we find to be beautiful in any medium and every price range.
ORPHANAGE PROJECT IN MYANMAR
In 2009 while traveling around Myanmar we stumbled upon a destitute orphanage. The monk in charge explained to us that the children had been orphaned when Hurricane Nargis killed over 100000 people in 2008. Our hearts went out to them and we decided that we would start fundraising through Hibernia to help. We committed ourselves to an annual trip to spend time with the children & bring them 100% of all funds collected. Unfortunately the money raised has never been enough and their dismal living conditions were becoming salubrious and dangerous. It was most fortunate that in 2019 while on vacation in Anguilla Jerry & Mary Ann O’Halloran came to dine at Hibernia and learnt about our work Upon returning to the USA, they helped us to set up our project at the The Boston Foundation by hosting it through their Family Foundation. They committed to funding the setting up & administrations fees so 100% of donations go to Pylone Chantha Orphanage which is now recognised as a 501(c)3 tax deductible charity. Here is the link.Here is link. https://www.tbf.org/donors/forms/Pylone%20Chantha%20Orphanage%20Project%20Fund
It is now our dream to be able to raise funds to be able to do urgent repairs to their home. Your generous contribution will help sustain the children, improve their dismal living conditions, and take care of their most pressing needs.
