Having opened in November 2024, The Fork & Wheel was a ground-up refurbishment of the Two Mile Inn, a well-established local bar and restaurant that had been closed since Covid-19.

Meitheal Architects provided the full suite of services for our clients Cliste Group, including feasibility, planning, interiors, construction as well as FSC/DAC, assigned certifier and PSDP services to re-imagine this local gem on a budget.

The surrounding farmland inspired the rustic but intimate and comfortable interior that provides the clients with a full operational switch between shifts from carvery to a full-service à la carte in the evenings. Clever use of partitions and curtains allow a simple changeover for staff. The existing bar was maintained and mildly upgraded to keep the original character. Built-in furniture, joinery, upholstery and wall coverings all work with new lighting, skylights, and ceiling coffers to provide an intimate but contemporary dining experience that our clients are thrilled with.

A new café and outdoor areas were introduced, along with an entry that re-aligns the customer experience from the new carpark, all taking in the existing mature landscape and adjacent stream.
