Had dinner here on our first day in Cork. We started at a table and after dinner made our way to…read morethe bar. For dinner my wife ordered the Irish lamb stew and I had the fish and chips. The stew was superb,it had plenty of lamb and nicely cut pieces of potato and root vegetables. This was the best stew by far after having stew twice while in Dublin. The fish was good but not the best I've had and the chips were a little lukewarm. Once at the bar we enjoyed some drinks and stayed for the live music until closing. Also, Michael gave us some great recommendations for places to go in Cork. Glad we found this pub and I'd recommend it to travelers.

Market Lane is an absolute must when visiting Cork! I had the steak sandwich, and it was…read moreoutstanding, served on incredible homemade bread that was fresh, flavorful, and the perfect complement to the tender steak. I paired it with one of their locally brewed lagers, which was crisp, refreshing, and a great match for the meal. The biggest surprise was the mushroom soup. It was rich, velvety, and absolutely exquisite, served with warm house made bread that was impossible to stop eating. What truly made the experience exceptional was the hospitality. Every member of the staff was warm, welcoming, and genuinely made us feel at home. Fresh local ingredients, fantastic beer, unforgettable food, and wonderful service. Market Lane deserves every bit of its five stars. Highly recommended!

Had another visit today 23/02/2026 for dinner, ordered two appetizers and one dessert…read more The chicken liver pate was nice, rich and creamy liver flavor went well with the crispy fry bread and sour pickles. Small pork pie's pastry had some slightly overburnt and had spots, but it was crispy overall. The filling was seasoned nicely, but could use a bit more gravy or juice. The blackberry sundae with ice cream was nicely done, silky texture ice cream, sundae was rich in blackberry flavor. Other elements provide a diversity of mouthfeel, but I felt some of them were a bit of nuisance as their textures sometimes did not feel harmonized together.

Sorry, love nice bathrooms so you might start seeing that a lot in reviews…read more All the staff and regulars here are pretty great, and quick service at the bar although it's popular so can be hard to squeeze in. They do a lot of live music as well and the performers always bring the best energy to the place.
