Cameron Bakery in Cork

18/09/2026: A wonderful team lunch at The Montenotte Hotel, where the beautiful setting, panoramic views and attentive service made for a truly memorable experience. The vegetarian selection was slightly limited, but the wild mushroom pappardelle with Scotch egg was exceptional — one of the finest pasta dishes I’ve had. The confit potato gratin was equally delicious, and the chocolate fondant was the perfect indulgent finish. An elegant dining experience with wonderful attention to detail. Everything from the food and service to the ambience was outstanding.

08/07/2026: Its only ok. The food was nice but felt it was over priced. The quality was good but the flavors were not sensational. I would expect more given the price and vibe they are trying for. The service was very friendly but sadly incredibly inefficient and ineffective. It took almost over 30minutes to be served our first drinks. The food was a little more prompt however our last drinks never came at all even though we waited for them over an hour. We asked for a second bottle of water twice and it never arrived. It was a super hot day and I feel like the service should be more attentive to this particular fact. We sat outside on thr terrace on one of the lovely couches which was very comfy and wonderfully appointed. Lots of cushions and blankets for when it gets chilly. The views of the city were also lovely. Its definitely a spot for older people - over 40s, 50s etc. Not a spot for younger people, the atmosphere is a bit stale. The music was boring but I feel this is the vibe they are going for. Definitely not a fabulous place to enjoy a wine or a cocktail unless you are well into your middle age.
