I was living a good while in Cork and this bar is, without a doubt, the most vibrant place in the city! The staff there, Ronan, Tim and John, are really friendly and they make you feel like at home, the cosy atmosphere is simply unique. There's live music everynight, giving the chance to the new talents in the city... More

Great location just a minute away from Patrick St, close to lots of good restaurants on MacCurtain St and Bridge St. Really good vibe, relaxed and friendly. Live music played most evenings. I would thoroughly recommend Bourbon St to anyone visiting Cork More

They are also a great live music venue. I visited from Australia and everyone was so friendly I would defently head back there.... More

What a fantastic pub; the staff are unbelievably friendly, they have amazing beer, there's always live music on and any time we've spent there has been thoroughly enjoyable. It's great for couples to visit because there are lovely candle-lit two person tables but it's a mad laugh with friends as well because there are couches and booths. The deals are... More

When I discovered Bourbon Street I found a place with great music and a really nice atmosphere! Visited regularly when living in Cork but currently out of the country. Always make sure I visit when I'm home for a weekend which says it all. More
