Come hail, rain or shine, when it’s summer in Ireland, you just can’t beat a tasty and delicious barbecue. And in Cork City, the perfect barbecue spot can be found at The River Lee.

The Look Out is an elegant rooftop space overlooking the trees of the Bishop’s Palace, with a great view of the city. Set above the weir, this glamourous space has a cocktail nook, stylish chevron parquet flooring and a fully covered terrace, just in case the weather takes a turn.

It’s an ideal spot for any private event, be it a formal gathering or a casual occasion. There’s plenty of greenery, as well as heaters for chillier nights, so you can stay outdoors even when the temperature drops and a covering for those pesky Irish summer showers..

The Barbecue options offer a sleek variation of classic dishes, all cooked up on the grill and served with a mixed green leaf salad. Think char-grilled Hereford beef burgers beef burgers, mojito grilled West Cork chicken thighs and Miso glazed baby back ribs.
