Black Pig Winebar in Kinsale

Absolutely fabulous. Awesome doesn't cover it!!!!!¡

We booked a table for late in the evening but wandered in alot earlier due to a need for sustenance! Warmly welcomed and seated at the bar as our table was not yet available and picked a epic red wine from the excellent list. The casual atmosphere and staff were great and we devoured the fantastic plates including prawns, pate and crocettes. This was the highlight of our time in Kinsale. We will be back.

Just fabulous, fresh locally sourced food, fresh flavours and absolutely delicious food. The success of this restaurant is down to Siobhan and Gavin, who care about their customers and are passionate about their food. Wishing you continued success for your restaurant Rosemary/Eugene Malahide

This review is a couple of months late, with my apologies. We enjoyed a spectacular meal in November 2024 and I had wanted to say thank you so much. The pumpkin & parmesan croquettes were life-changing... the gnocchi sublime. The thing that made it perfect though was the service which was warm, enthusiastic and professional. Our server was unflappable even when the table next to us set their napkin on fire, and seemed completely uninterested in putting it out. We got an awful fit of the giggles but she was serenity itself as she saved the day. I would come back to Kinsale just to visit The Black Pig. The food was truly the best meal I've had in 10 years, maybe more - every dish perfection. The prices are a steal compared to the highway robbery that's taken over Dublin with largely boring, poorly executed food.

Well isn’t this quite the find! So lovely we went back the 2nd night … Staff … adorable,helpful, friendly, warm, kind ✅ Food …. Fantastic … not your traditional sit down eat restaurant experience but much more laid back with the feeling of sharing boards/ plates but you don’t have to share if that’s not your thing! ✅ Wine … my husband’s idea of heaven … extensive wine lists … glasses available for all …. interested staff to chat with …. Suits me extremely well too … a glass or two of bubbly and a yummy pudding wine … all in all suits us both. ✅ Do book early … it’s extremely busy but they do have walk ins at the bar but you’ll need to go early … we were delighted. Thank you

Super nice food, wine, ambiance and service. Really happy to have found this hidden place. We will be back soon!

A truly & honestly fantastic experience. The food, wine & most importantly the service was certainly the highlight of our evening. Will definitely be back for more!

Arrived right at opening to try our luck at a walk in spot at the bar and they had a last minute reservation cancel so we snagged a table! Service was so kind and helpful. The food was divine! Favorite meal of our trip to Ireland! Highly recommend!

Excellent place and gorgeous food and drink. Would highly recomend for an evening out with a group or for a party or family event
