About this spot

Cask sits inside a beautifully restored Victorian building on MacCurtain Street in Cork city, earning a Tripadvisor Travelers' Choice award and ranking among the top restaurants in Cork since opening in 2017. The bar's three-season courtyard and intimate nook seating make it equally suited to date nights and group occasions.

The drinks menu — redesigned every eight weeks — draws on foraged ingredients like wild gorse flowers, fresh dillisk, and rosemary blossoms, shaped into cocktails using three specialist Japanese ice machines producing block, ball, and flavored ice. On the food side, award-winning chef Bryan McCarthy delivers globally inspired small plates: think street-food tapas, charcuterie boards, and seasonal sharing dishes that change with the produce available.

Cask attracts a crowd that comes as much for the craft behind the cocktails as for the food — it's a classy but relaxed venue for drinks before dinner, a full evening out, or late-night DJ sets on weekends. Booking ahead is strongly advised.
