Reviews of The Black Dog

J. S.

The interior reminded me of my 80s Punk roots. We were there in the afternoon for a cider, but we heard the place gets packed at night. BDSM shares a really nice beer garden with The Vicarstown Bar.

M. S.

Loved the atmosphere here. Great choice of beer and whiskey.

J. O.

Updating my review, as I just visited it recently and must admit I'm a bit disappointed with the new layout. Especially of the back area. It was always a good spot to come with friends, but some of them smoke, so the new no smoking rule, has kind of been a turn off for them and me included. However for people who want to avoid that scene its a perfect social spot and the tapas look great ( haven't tried admittedly). Not my kind of spot anyways, prob won't be back

G. H.

Great place for drinks and a nibble. The cockatials are fantastic but expensive, so is some of the food but great quality. Good place to go for fun with friends wouldn't recommend inside the bar for convo the music can be so loud you cant hear eachother speaking outdoor area for that more so. Otherwise it's my favourite bar in cork staff are all lovely.

D. B.

Cool bar, friendly staff and interesting crowds. Music choice is metal and rock, great for a few pints. Cocktails are also unreal and at a really cheap price for the work that goes into them

R. C.

I posted 4 but I was probably intoxicated. Great place, amazing atmosphere! Updated rating

S. S.

Features the Rising Son brewery selection, photo booth and heated outdoor courtyard (fairly compact, but larger to the vicarstown). Two bars in one. Usually plays mainstream rock or metal music

a.

Good music and the best beer on draft. Good and quick thinking personnel.

S. F. E.

Probably the best cocktails in the city and the cocktail maker was incredible

S. C.

A good but tiny pub. Great selection of beers.

G. S. (. S.

Love the vibes, cocktails, and awesome staff. I'll for sure be coming back!

C. P.

Good Rock n Roll DJ on Friday night, good variety of beer and other drinks, including some cocktails. It's nice but keep in mind it's a bit small and popular, so it might be packed depending on the day.

B. B.

We went for some fresh tacos tonight at The (new) Old Town Taqueria at the B.D.S.M. in Cork. It lived up to the hype and didn’t let us down. I definitely recommend it. What a great surprise it was to find such good, quality tacos, quesadillas and nachos hidden away at B.D.S.M.. Everything on the menu was less than €10 too!

L. R.

Wow! The best authentic Mexican food I have had. The slow cooked birria beef tacos dunked in the sauce made my mouth water constantly. Flavors excite every taste tastebud on your tongue for full flavor. The atmosphere is cozy, classic rock style.

D. M. R.

The place has some the best selection of alcohol on northmain Street. The outside on the street is stunning and the inside is just on par with it. The pub has a beer garden, not a huge one but quite confy. Be sure to take a photo in the photo boot ;)

S. S.

Great pub with good alternative music and a nice atmosphere. Prices are okay for Cork City and there is a huge smoking area with seating. Always a must to pop in, when in town!

M. L. D. (.

This is the place to go in Cork if you want a proper cocktail with proper music. Not surprising, it's part of the Cork Heritage Pubs, all are really good, in very different ways. :)

J. v. d. M.

Nice place to go for drinks! Cocktails are a bit pricey. Friendly doorstaff and bar personnel. Good music!

A. B.

Only place in town to get Mezcal, best selection of Tequila in town and best Mexican food in town by a very wide margin. The Tacos Al Pastor in particular are the best I've had in Europe.

C. W.

In a dump of a city this was the only place we could find with a bit of class for a night out. A diamond in a dog shite.

C. C.

"Aesthetically vile" late bar with a real dive-bar feel to it. Gets a bit crowded at times so see if you can get in a little earlier but one of Cork's most fun bars if you get in right. Deserves all its success.

A. M.

Friendly but professional service with a great atmosphere! DJ was awesome. Great selection of metal and alternative tunes. Will be back for sure

Y. T.

Best Long Island ice teas!!!! Enough said.

Very nice pub separated into 3 distinct parts. Rock entrance, vast interior courtyard and more electro dance room. Very warm and friendly staff. Good choice of drinks. Competent bouncer. Above average cleanliness for a pub, including toilets. My second choice in Cork.
