The Pav in Cork

The Pav is my favourite spot for a drink with friends. It’s cosy, has great decor, and the music volume is low enough that you can talk with your friends easily. The cocktails are too notch. The cinema area upstairs I tried once and wasn’t a fan. The men’s toilet lock has been broken the last few months which makes me wonder how attentive their management are. Also the hot water comes out boiling sometimes which is dangerous. They need to adjust. If they can make the upstairs better and improve the toilet situation this place would be top notch.

"Colour bar with plenty of space for dancing & live music "Great service & cocktails"

First time in here, popped in as I was passing and just wanted a look. Bar itself looks great, very square, like drinking in a big dark box. Decor is beautiful, bar counter and behind very nice. Glasses arranged behind bar looked beautiful, staff very friendly and efficient. So, where does it lose its stars. The bar itself strikes me as a place you only go when going to the main venue upstairs which is some kind of club/disco/concert venue. There is no toilet on the ground floor which is a pain and very little natural light or air in the room. The air in here just kind of hangs there doing nothing. Have they air conditioning? Who knows. From that point of view it just wouldn't be my cup of tea. Other negative, got charged €6 for a bottle of Bud! First drink in three months, wouldn't encourage me to have a session at those prices, especially when I could get it on draft in another pub less than 200 metres away for virtually the same price. Would like to go to something in the club sometime just for a look but other than that I just prefer more light and air in a bar.

Just went in for a few drinks. Lovely downstairs bar more mature customers 40s and 50s really nice place. If your a bit younger there the old Nightclub upstairs then feom the bar. Good spot.

Stopped in for a pint and felt very welcome, definitely going back for one of the regular drag events they hold

Lovely bar, decor is cool and has New York vibes Indoor and outdoor seating available Very nice staff Good drinks and service Enjoyed the experience, would visit again and would recommend

Nice place, friendly staff, good music.

Absolutely beautiful place to go to

Such a special music/ dance venue. Once one of Cork's oldest cinemas. Beautiful ceiling.

Cocktails here were really nice. Decor and atmosphere was nice but was really quiet. €14 per cocktail. If you like sweets I recommend : The Matiny; if you like fruity cocktails I recommend Sandy Cheeks.
