    Cool place with excellent cocktails! Loved the atmosphere. Felt a bit like a diamond in the rough being somewhat hidden from the streets. We went on a weekend and after a couple of drinks it did start to get busy as the night went on. Pinky Promise (wife ordered) went down easy and one of our favorites. The other two (the other gin and a whiskey drink) were solid.

    LOVE LOVE this place. So cozy, so much to take in and look at, great vibe and fun 80s music usually. Nice selection of drinks. Worth waiting for a seat, crowd in. Get upstairs for an excellent cocktail if you can as well.

    I was recommended to go there and it was worth it. Very nice place, good food and wine. The waiters and waitresses were kind and quick. Definitely a good location for dinner.

    This is the best place in Cork for lunch brunch or tapas. The wine selection is good and reasonably priced. The staff are absolutely lovely and it's a lovely environment to spend time. The food is fantastic quality and great value.

    The best place to dine in Cork, amazing atmosphere, amazing food. Great spot.

    One of my favourite bars in Cork, if not the fave. It looks deceptively small but hides a larger alfresco-like seating area at the back and another indoor bar. I believe there’s a second floor as well but haven’t made it there. The prices are very reasonable with generous portions. I’ve had the mussels which was fresh and delicious, the potatoes were roasted perfectly and we gobbled up the entire bowl quite quickly, and the vegan sliders were surprisingly tasty with a wonderful flavour that I’ll definitely be back for more. There’s plenty to drink, be it beers on tap, wines, cocktails or even winter warmers. My favourite is the hot butter rum (so deliciously sinful!).

    Wasn't too bad. Drinks weren't too bad. But the service was soooo slow. It was a Saturday evening we went, around 7pm. Went in to try and get served, were told to go back to our table. Sat and waited. We had to go back again to ask for drinks after 20 minutes, waited some more, had to go back again.... in all we waited 40 minutes for someone to take our order. If we didn't have a dinner reservation we were going to just near by we would have just left. They really need to organise their staff better.

    The cocktail bar upstairs has great ambiance, and the cocktail selection is unique. The prices on cocktails are a bit higher than some other places, but well worth it, as each one tastes carefully crafted. A good choice if you want a cosy date night or just a good cocktail

    Had a great time! It's an hidden charm that gives you a break from the city's hustle bustle. Wife and I got to spend some quality time together, first enjoying mouth watering dinner and then another glass of drink accompanied by live music!

    Great end to the night after being disappointed in previous places. Headed in here to have some cocktails and were meet with great service and fantastic cocktails that did not disappoint, they looked great and tasted as good as they looked.

    Great spot for a drink especially the cocktails. We had two beautiful cocktails each. Highly recommend the place, even the interesting decor was very nice. The staff were friendly and very helpful in returning a pair or lost glasses!

    We enjoyed our tapas here. A true spot frequented by locals- it was very busy when we arrived. We set in the back- service wasn’t 100% but we didn’t mind. Food was excellent.

    - The Cajun Prawns are very good but maybe a little bit too salty, I still recommend it very much, they were a good surprise ! - Rustic Potatoes are the safe choice, good quantity and just fine in term of taste ! - Coxinha (chicken croquettes) are not good at all, I don't recommend, you doesn't taste any chicken. - Pork belly is okay but nothing impressive about it.

  • 5/5 Benjamin E. 10 months ago on Google
    Atmospheric bar with an extensive drink menu. There’s seating outfront, a beer garden in the alley outback, and a second cocktail bar upstairs. Cocktails are very well made. We only had drinks and dessert, but they have a tapas menu too. Skip the brownie it isn’t good.

    I have coffee here nearly every day of the week, and once a week, I meet up with a group of friends here. The location is great. The food is amazing. I'm sometimes found here on a weekend night. The security personnel make you feel very safe.

    Fab place for wine, food and cocktails. We sat out the back under a lovely heater at a bench seat and the service was really great. I tried one of these cocktails which was pretty deadly 😝

    At first, the facade looks a bit fade, but a hint of extravagance attracts your looking at it twice and gives you the idea to push the door. The decor is pharmacy like. With some old prescription books and a huge display of wine and liquor bottles. À la carte i decide to have a white Bordeaux and salmon pâté with toasts, served at the counter. Have a look at this place. It’s a hidden jewel. Nice staff too!

  • 5/5 Phil J. 8 months ago on Google
    Great place - welcoming, quirky and interesting - the decor is in keeping with the building’s previous use. Linked to The Crane Lane theatre bar, so you sit in either bar, mixing food and drinks from either. Had a quick snack of rustic potatoes and hummus - perfect portions. Highly recommended.

    Luckily this was right around the corner from our hotel and we stumbled on it on accident. Such a cute little place to have breakfast. The food was excellent but the atmosphere was incredible, as well.

    Great vibe and good food! Tapas dishes were delicious. LOTS of veggie options. Had the vegan sliders! Service was good too. Loved the beer garden in the back.
