Ed Cooney is a legend of the cheffing game. Before joining The Merrion in 1997 and becoming Executive Chef, he worked at some of the finest hotels and restaurants in Scotland and England, including the celebrated Craigendarroch Hotel and Country Club, Royal Deeside, where The Oaks gourmet restaurant held the Michelin Red M. He then joined The Regent Four Seasons London, now known as The Landmark Hotel, before returning to Ireland.

During his time at The Merrion, Ed Cooney has won numerous awards, undertaken several culinary tours of the USA and become a popular guest chef on TV.
