The Glasshouse

The Glasshouse is a stunning art-deco-inspired rooftop bar located atop The Montenotte Hotel, an acclaimed luxury property overlooking Cork city, Ireland. Launched following a significant investment, this elegant glass-façaded sky bar offers panoramic views across Cork's rooftops, Victorian Sunken Gardens and the cityscape beyond, from a beautifully appointed terrace with a distinctive pink exterior. The extensive cocktail menu is inspired by the surrounding gardens, with signature serves including drinks crafted using the hotel's own gin produced in partnership with Blackwater Distillery. The atmosphere shifts effortlessly from cool and casual by day to sassy and electric by night, with live bands performing every Friday and Saturday evening, Cuban and Caribbean influences weaving through the music and decor. The Glasshouse is one of Cork's most exciting and glamorous rooftop experiences.
