    Fabulous place, we come here a lot. The staff are amazing and the menu is wonderful and varied. Perfect place for a catch-up with friends over excellent glasses of wine. Amazing selection and lovely shop too. Most recently we were upstairs, very cosy and lovely views of city at night. Highly recommend!

    A beautiful wine bar, I highly recommend. It’s always an enjoyable experience, get a table upstairs if you can. Staff and service are very good. A really strong wine selection and the staff are very interested and educated on options. Food is also beautiful, definitely suggest a cheese and meat board.

    Excellent wine list and brilliant food. Most importantly, the staff are enthusiastic about the wines and will talk you through the list and give you tasters. Every time I go here I come away liking a wine I’ve never had before, or end up with a different perspective on wines I already know.

    Amazing wine bar, Len is a legend! It was my first time here and he explained the wines and food menus and suggested some excellent wines that were amazing. I'll definitely be back to sample some more amazing red wine.

    Super spot, good nibbles, great wine. Gotta watch the pours though, got gipped on a couple of wines, an honest mistake perhaps.

  • 3/5 Dan O S. 8 months ago on Google
    Service was really good but way way overpriced for the portions and quality of food you get( 15 euro for 3 small croquettes). Mediocre quality on top of that. Nice relaxing vibe in There however

  • 5/5 Alice M. 5 months ago on Google
    This wine bar is amazing! The food was delicious, the wine was great and the staff were super attentive and friendly. Shout out to Laura who was serving us. I definitely will be returning to try some orange wine!

    I’ve been to this place before and decided to celebrate my B-Day here. Haven’t to say, that the wine and food were so delicious. Such a cosy atmosphere, like at home. Service was amazing!! A huge thanks to everyone, you made my day!

  • 5/5 Amy D. 1 year ago on Google
    So cosy, ideal location, knowledgeable team, delicious food and wine! Loved the Gorilla Tasting Spuds n Wine event. 5 courses of potato dishes paired with wine/ cider - yum!

  • 2/5 Julie A. 11 months ago on Google
    Nice wine but would not go again …. I got the 3 meats and 3 cheese board to share with one friend and was €23 and we were still left hungry and was probably the smallest cheese board I have ever gotten. We had to go else where for food after so wouldn’t recommend. Staff were nice but we were also sat on a table with high stools and no backs so couldn’t stay long as uncomfortable.

  • 3/5 Cihan O. 11 months ago on Google
    Nice atmosphere, great staff but portions are too small and prices are too high.

  • 5/5 Connor S. 1 year ago on Google

    Great place. Great wine, Great food

  • 1/5 Andrew B. 1 year ago on Google
    The guy working there was sitting at the bar watching YouTube, tapping the desk to music. Wasn’t pleasant to speak to. Highly recommend going to Nell’s or McCurtain street wine cellar. Pity as this place was so nice before.

  • 5/5 Connor D. 1 year ago on Google
    Great wine bar love the waiter in there he's so knowledgeable and helpful to those who don't know lots about natural wine. Love the atmosphere in there too such great energy. Thanks Len for a great night!

  • 5/5 adrian g. 1 year ago on Google
    Smart and stylish wine bar with tasty food. Lovely buzz to it.

  • 5/5 Alexandra R. 6 years ago on Google
    Please go here if you are ever in Cork. Stunning food, quirky and quaint with great service. Food was excellent value for money, it might seem a little pricey to some but you absolutely get what you pay for. Quite a small place but definitely worth propping up the bar if that's the only seat available (we did!!)

  • 5/5 Declan M. 6 years ago on Google
    Great atmosphere good food but the wine is unbelievable so much to choose from, staff very helpful with wine especially the Scottish sommelier

  • 5/5 Julie-Marie C. 1 year ago on Google

👍👍 Awesome place to grab a bite to eat and have a nice drink or three in downtown Cork. I had the fish and chips and the wife had the lamb stew...they were both perfect.

👍 Crazy good prices on food and beverages. You sacrifice attentive service, but everyone I talked to there was pleasant and helpful.
