Blackbird in Ballycotton

Lovely bar in Ballycotton. Great staff. Good music. Friendly locals.

Some of the nicest fish and chips i've had in East Cork, really fresh and tasty!

Nice pub with outside area. Food is good and quick.

We went on Friday evening with our little dachshund who announced her presence hahahaha. This is a diamond of a place, the food truck menu was so tempting that we spent ages trying to agree on what to eat. We decided on a few different sides, tempura prawns, satay chicken, crispy mushrooms and spicy fries, I'm salivating now just thinking about it. This place has a great feel to it. Luckily it was a beautiful evening so we sat outside with wine, Guinness and damn good grub... heaven. The staff were efficient and friendly, when we are back in Cork we will definitely return!!!!!!!!!!

Heat food Lovely spot and Mossie the bar man is great craic!

Self service, good place to drink and eat

Guinness is so goof here. Great to have Trawlerboyz food truck as an excellent addition.

Delicious food, fast service. Price performance top

I had a great time at The Blackbird Bar. It was my first time there and to be honest, I didn't expect it to be so authentic, warm and welcoming, from the exterior, but it was! The inside is full of recesses and cubby holes. The lighting is just right, with numerous candles spread throughout, and the venue is ideal for music in my opinion. Spending an evening here over a pint, eating a bite of food, and listening to music would be therapy in and of itself. The owner, Mossy, was particularly welcoming and even though the bar was busy, he took his time to have an unhurried chat. The food was excellent. I tried a scampi and chips and I have to say that the chips were absolutely perfect, like the chips of old thick-cut and tasting of real high quality potato. Coffee came served with a little snack bar which was a nice touch. I wish it was closer to Cork but I will definitely be back.

Best pub around, great music and always a great vibe inside. The Trawler Boys make tremendous pub food and they have a large garden for nice days/nights.
