Best wine bar in Cork - visited a few times since opening and it's always nothing less than excellent. Great wine, good sharing plates and very friendly service.

Excellent wine bar! Attentive service, amazing bites, and, of course, one of the best selections of wine in the city. Great place to chill out with a glass of vino.

⭐ 5 stars – A true gem in Cork!
McCurtain Wine Cellar is hands down the best place for wine in Cork. Every visit feels like a treat — not just because of the wine, but because of the exceptional service and thoughtfully curated food.
Sean (staff or possibly the owner) is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate. He always gives us the perfect wine recommendations.
The food selection always amazes us. The burrata here is honestly the best I’ve ever had — creamy, fresh, and beautifully presented. Their cheese selection is also stunning, with a range of flavours that pair so well with their wines.
It’s a cozy, intimate spot with top-tier quality, and it’s clear that so much care goes into everything they do. If you love wine (or just love good service and food), this place is a must-visit.
Grace & Craig are absolute class! I wandered into here because it was close to my hotel and I love wine, and I felt at home immediately. The wine selection was great, and the light bites were delicious. Top tier customer service, I couldn’t have asked for a better introduction to Cork! You won’t regret visiting!

My fiance and I live in NYC and we came to Cork for one night and MacCurtains made us wish we could stay longer!
We met Trudy and Grace and were wowed by the nibbles and the amazing selection of wine!
My only complaint is that there is no longer open in the US (yet).
Thanks so much for the amazing time!
