Hello and happy new year.

Bit of a cold snap down here in Cork right now so for this week we’re closing at 3pm.

Opening Hours this week:
Tuesday to Saturday 09:00 - 15:00; and until 16:00 on Saturday.

We might do the same next week if its chilly.

That said, we have blankets, hot water bottles and lots of lovely lunches if you‘re in Cork and hungry.

Good morning, and a lovely morning it is.

After bank holidays we open a little later to allow the chefs receive delivers and to get prepping.

Open at 11:30 for lunch.

Hopefully see you all later.
