A work conference brought me to The Met Bar in the Gresham Metropole hotel on Mac Curtain Street in Cork City. We headed in pre and post the conference. I stayed on the dry for the visit and had a 7up and a coca cola. There was six of us having a drink and it was extremely relaxing. The Met Bar is a modern establishment that is great for a couple of quiet drinks. I was impressed by the interior of the bar and the service from the staff was very good. It is a big bar with plenty of comfortable seating areas. We sat just to the right as you come in. There was music playing in the backround but it was not loud at all.
The toilets were by far the best that i have reviewed since i started over a year ago. They were perfectly clean and very spacious. I can not fault them. Of course it was quiet on the night that we were there but overall i was very impressed with them, especially the abundance of mirrors. This is most certainly a pub that i would come back to again for a drink. The hotel is a great place to head for the jazz weekend so it may be worth checking out then.
Toilet rating: 10/10
Overall rating: 8/10
Final comment: The Met Bar is a good hotel pub with plenty of character. It was quiet on our visit but would probably be busier at the weekend.
