Elbow Lane in Cork

Attentive service but not overbearing, well made tasty cocktails and the food was absolutely delicious. Thanks to Ryan in particular. We can’t wait to return.

All I can say is we'll done to all the staff in Elbow Lane. Once again everything was fantastic. Great food se

Visiting Cork for long weekend and had a 5:15pm online booking but our flight was delayed. Called Joel, no problem to change to 6:00pm (we eventually made it by 6:30pm but no problem as we let them know), and so glad we made it. Great service, atmosphere, food, and beer. Highly recommend their own stout as one if the best around (don’t drink the mass-market stuff if you’re a stout fan). We had ribeye with a side of French beans, plus rack of ribs with chips. Both were excellent. One of the best parts was a thick hot towel at the end to clean messy hands. Super nice touch.

We visited on Friday 21st for my Husband's 40th birthday whilst visiting Cork and we were both really excited for our meal as the reviews were really good and the menu was exiting. I made it clear on booking that we were celebrating a big birthday, so we were disappointed to be sat right next to the toilets where people were constantly passing by us to use the loo, which wouldn't really have been an issue normally but we definitely didn't have the best seat in the house... !! My Husband's cut of rib eye was really good however mine was fatty and not a brilliant cut so I struggled to eat it. Unfortunately nobody checked in with us during our meal so I wasn't able to tell them but I did mention it at the end. They said that if they had known they would have replaced it for me but they took money off the bill instead. Lastly, my Husband was given a candle (being held by the waitress) to blow out for his birthday, no cake or dessert, just a candle... All in all a very disappointing experience for a 40th birthday celebration which could have been so much better with a few tweaks. I must say that our waitress was lovely and this is not direct feedback on her at all.

Lovely set of dishes at Elbow Lane - burrata to start and lamb / ribeye for mains to share. Espresso martinis for dessert were also delicious.

Thanks Matt & Co. What a food experience was incredible, going far beyond our expectations. The sweet, smoky & sour cocktail was class

Cracking food and vibe, as well as staff. Food all locally sourced, and really well prepared. Everything was a delight to eat, from mains to desserts, even all the sides and the small salad on the mains. The steak was superbly cooked.

I cannot recommend this place enough! I had a reservation for 3 and ended up changing it to 1 due to an issue with the others. I went alone, first time dining solo and I had an amazing experience! Sat at the bar, service was great, food was so satisfying!

We had a wonderful evening with the folks in Elbow Lane which was operating a limited menu due to a recent fire. We loved every thing and we will be back. RECOMMENDED 👍 👍

Excellent service and fantastic meat!! A great choice!
