The River Club in Cork

Beautiful place. Nice staff. Food is not great.

Grill room at river lee club is only good to look at but the quality of food served is not the best. It was my daughter’s birthday and decided to book this place for dinner.honestly speaking the food tasted very bad and unhygienic except one main dish ‘whole dover sole’ which was served at last. ‘harissa gambas pil pil’ was served with digestive tract( did not devein)which could trigger severe allergy…..and was made in some smelly reused black oil.upon asking to the waiter why was this not deveined, he answered this is how Europeans eat. Not mentioning the name of the waiter. ‘Chicken karage’ had bad smell inside as I could see blood spots inside marination and smells terrible as it was not washed. “soft baked bread”was served without butter and not toasted or no dill as mentioned in the menu. It was a bad experience and our evening was ruined, in the process the general manager stepped inn and tried to fix it but if the chef is not talented and not of high ranking the GM’s efforts were not justified.also the waiters just drop the food on the table they are not trained to serve properly.i guess they are students hired for part time jobs but not trained.

Lovely atmosphere. Gorgeous outside space. Nice cocktails

My friend and I dined in The River Club. The food in the Terrace was sensational to say the least along with the comfortable and aesthetic interior. But what really made the experience fantastic was the service! Our server Ruben Tareja was not only attentive to filling up our drinks and checking in with us all night but was so friendly, funny and engaging. We laughed the whole time with him and he definitely made the experience one to remember! I couldn’t recommend the River Club enough and hopefully when anyone comes to visit you get the pleasure to be served by Ruben! Eleanor and Theo :)

Excellent service and drinks, Very warm atmosphere at the river club.

Riverside bar and grill room. Comfortable decor and ambience but music was a bit too loud. Wide range of food and drink options. Attentive and friendly service. A convenient location on the Western Road in Cork.

A pleasurable lunch with work colleagues in this lovely restaurant, Excellent service!

To start off, the restaurant looked great! I can't say much since we just went for drinks and a meat/cheese board while sitting at the bar. I was not a huge fan of what was on the board, mainly because it did not mesh too well together and one of the three meats was more like thick cut a lunch meat (tasted/looked much like pastrami). Also, It was pricer than other spots around Cork. Though they are upscale, you will get some hotel bar vibes, mainly because you see a lot of the hotel guests coming and going. All in all a nice spot but probably wasn't worth our venture out of the busier area.

Awesome place, such a joy to go there

Really lovely evening. Good was really good as were the staff. Nice buzz about the place also
