Oriel Bar & Bistro in Youghal

This was our favorite cocktail bar from our most recent trip to London. The drinks were fantastic, the atmosphere and vibes were immaculate. The staff was attentive and friendly and helped us make our drink choices. We also had some small plates, which were excellent. There was fantastic live music playing while we were there (think Django Reinhardt style guitar). This is not an inexpensive place to drink, but you will not be disappointed.

What a an incredible experience, start to finish. Service was impeccable all throughout our visit. The entertainment was spectacular and the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. The food was so full of flavour and was worth every penny, albeit the pricing was more than reasonable. I highly recommend dinner and a show. If I’m ever back in London, I’ll be back here again. The staff are attentive, knowledgeable and make sure you have everything you need whenever you need it. If I could rate it more than 5 I would. Cheers.

Oriels bamboo bar was perfect for our 50 person event. The bar manager and staff went above and beyond to keep me in the loop and keep the guests happy. The correspondence leading up to the event from was fantastic, I received an event sheet with all details well in advance. Would happily recommend the venue.

I went to view it for an event they werent serving food but the space looks stunning

Lovely atmosphere and great service – Jacob was really welcoming and attentive. I enjoyed the vibe of the bar, but found the prices a bit steep. Also, while the concept of sharing plates is great, the portion sizes were smaller than expected.

We were so impressed! It’s not usual you get good cocktails AND great food. We loved the cocktails we had, ask for reccommendations, they are great at advising. We did the £60 offer - live music, 3 courses and cocktail. Beef tartare and seabass ceviche were fantastic. Also enjoyed the pork cheek and lamb rump for mains. Desserts - Eton mess and Chocolate delice - both delicious. Dim lit, chic, perfect date spot. Can’t fault a thing and will come back!

Took my boyfriend here for his birthday. Perfect atmosphere, lovely drinks, great jazz performance. Would definitely recommend

Just went for drinks at the Bamboo Bar but great staff, very friendly, could hear the live music from downstairs and it sounded really good!

Vivo en el lugar y mis padres se quedaron recientemente. Su hotel favorito. La bienvenida como clientes leales de retorno es fenomenal. La gerente Janice va más allá para asegurarse de que todos los aspectos estén atendidos... . . El personal especialmente en el bistró es muy amable. A papá le encanta el desayuno y las habitaciones son tan amplias e impecables. El hotel ha subido el vestíbulo recientemente y IT es impresionante. Ballincollig tiene un cine, un montón de tiendas fabulosas y boutiques. Ubicación perfecta para unas vacaciones o una visita a Cork.

Outstanding Dining Experience – Exceptional Service and Cuisine I recently had the pleasure of dining at this fantastic restaurant with my boss and clients, and the experience exceeded all expectations. The service was truly 10/10 – warm, attentive, and perfectly timed throughout the evening. The food selection was impressive and beautifully curated. The octopus was incredibly tender and flavorful, the truffle croquettes were rich and indulgent, and the steak was cooked to absolute perfection – a true highlight of the evening. A special thank you to Zaineb and the team, who were phenomenal in every sense. Their professionalism, charm, and attention to detail made the evening seamless and memorable. Highly recommend for business dinners, special occasions, or anyone looking to enjoy top-tier dining with flawless service and excellent live music
