Covered outdoor dining in Cork City centre

The terrace sits right outside the restaurant at 4 Marlborough Street, a short walk from Patrick's Street and the English Market. It is covered and heated, so it works in an Irish summer and an Irish November. Order anything from the full menu out here, from a light lunch to a steak dinner, or just a cocktail and a glass of wine.

Summer in Cork city is short, and covered, heated outdoor dining means you do not have to wait for it. Tables outside fill up in spring and autumn too, so booking ahead is the safest way to get one. Whatever brings you here, you order from the same full menu as inside.

Lunch and dinner outside

Outdoor lunch, dinner and drinks

Everything on the inside menu is served outside too. The terrace is open whenever the restaurant is: daily from 12 noon until 10pm.
Come at midday for lunch in Cork city in the fresh air, from a salad or pasta to a sirloin steak sandwich, or book a romantic dinner in Cork city under the heaters in the evening: the 28-day dry-aged rib-eye or the sea bass, and a glass of wine.
From the kitchen come dishes from the charcoal grill, seafood and pasta, all cooked to order with locally sourced ingredients. The bar sends out wines, cocktails, beers and Irish whiskeys.
The terrace suits friends who want to sit for a while over a few plates and a round of cocktails and watch the city go by. It works for a business lunch too, a few minutes' walk from the offices around Patrick's Street and the South Mall. Families are welcome, and we have high chairs.
Planning a birthday or a team night? See group bookings or call us, and we will keep the tables together. Treating someone else? A Nosta gift voucher works on the terrace as well.
